Very cool. Nothing was meant as a dig to anyone. I used to love what I did. Nothing better than having something come to you running poorly and leave you purring like a kitten!

Thank you. Many moons ago, on Saturdays, a guy I worked with and myself would go out to a warehouse in Santa Fe Springs and do nothing but tune ups. $150 w/o jakes, $200 with. We would average 24 overhead sets for the day, unless the majority were cab overs. Right around 30 mins w/o brakes and...

And, as to the typewriter comment above, MOST of the time it is the crosshead that makes the noise. I do not believe that I have covered the adjustment of those because it is a feel/visual thing. Maybe one day I can do a video of how to set them up and/or adjust them.

If it ain't broke..... If it were me, runs fine, not an unusual amount of smoke and didn't sound like a typewriter, I'd leave it alone.

Nope, that stuff faded away faster than milk writing on parchment. Easy enough, pull the lids and determine what injector you have....the data plate on the accessory drive ear should tell you if it is still there....then just follow the above for which injector you have. If when you look down at...

Correct Simp, but do NOT do valves and injectors on the same cylinder. A= I-3, V-5, In .011, ex, .023

Here are some pics. Line art drawing, non top stop on the left, op stop on the right. Picture, top stop left, non top stop center and HVT/STC on the right.

Most had non-top stop. The way you can identify it is just like in the video above. You can see the spring. You can physically pull the spring and plunger out of the injector. A top stop injector has what looks like a giant 12-point nut on the top of it and the only thing you can pull out of the...

I just watched this...This guy is confused. The injectors are NOT top stops, NEVER do IBC on these type. Well, I guess you can do what you want, but what he said to do will cause issues.

That's funny, I ain't seen that video for ages! But I don't remember the dude having a Brit accent. Don't go messing with the pump, IF you screw up, it can be expensive. But YOUR stuff ain't mine.

You are gonna have a hard time running the rack on your NHC, they don't have one, now a Detroit, they do. In a nutshell, positive END of injection is when the injector plunger is fully seated in the cup of the injector. if you watch the injector lever when you bar the engine over, the cam pushes...

A screwdriver adapter. Forgot, this isn't an N14. I will look for an image and put that up...my bad. Here's a link, https://store.snapon.com/Flat-Tip-Standard-industrial-3-8-quot--Socket-Driver-Flat-Tip-Standard-Industrial-3-8--P631912.aspx

Just a bit of advice here. DO NOT use a screwdriver that has magnetic changeable bits. The bit will fall out and go down into the pan. The bit in the pan isn't an issue, the issue is that if the tool DOESN'T make it to the pan and gets lodged behind the cam follower lever. That will cause the...

That would be "A" or VS1-6.

There are two ways to set the overhead on an 855. One is the outer base method and the other is the inner base method. The inner base method can ONLY be used on top stop style injectors. The accessory drive pulley is marked differently for the IB method, TDC1-6, A, B, C. Most of the NHC's that I...
