As promised, here is the video of the first start. There was no electric fuel shutoff...just had to let the gas pedal all the way back. Enjoy......
Hi all, I have a question for any who know about the ooold cat engines. I'm helping a friend revive a 1961 KW with a 1673 Cat that hasn't run in...
Hello Ladies and Gentlemen, It has been at least a year since I posted here, as I was enduring much grief from my good friend Chuck, a 1969 White...
Removed the injectors that got squeezed, and there aren't any broken tips or bent links or bent pushrods, so I guess I'll put it back together...
You think I could possible knock the tip off the injector down into the cylinder? That would be very bad news...:-(
Sorry for being so dense. I get it now. With my injectors, I need to set them WHEN THEY ARE INJECTING, not when they are slack (like the...
Thanks, my engine does have the VS notches, which I was able to figure out. However, the quote you produced isn't accurate in that you really...

And as for the original question...I remember reading a "Flying" magazine column by their resident engineer type at the time (Peter Garrison) was...
Update: I put some more fuel in my tanks and drove the 6 miles to the gravel pit for a load. By the time I got to the pit the old truck was...
It is an identical problem as mine, Mike. I doubt it is the crossover pipe from one tank to the other, as that line will always be full of fuel....
Any luck with your 290 yet, earthmover? See my post...we have similar problems. Phil
Okay, I changed all the suction lines to the fuel filter and fuel pump. I checked the filter in the pump...clean. I sealed the cap for that...
Hi there, I have an old NHC 250 that I put a new cylinder, piston etc, and two new injectors. She ran great for about 10 hours, and then at...
Well, the old girl is running again! Filled with water and oil and cranked a bit with the compression release pulled to get the oil pump primed....
Oooohhh. Sorry, stranger, I was thinking that your 55in/lbs was referring to the hold-down screws. Well, then, I will give that a try. Thanks...
