If you want to see these engines in a dyno pull. Check them out on u tube. The 1000hp C 18 Cat had brute torque, the 1000hp man not so much....
Bearzgirl , ReRead, what Captain J said about the screen in the line below the reservoir being plugged, if that is not it, not replace the slave....
The only reason I know anything about Hynautic is because I just recently went thru the same learning process that you are going through. 1. The...
Capt J is correct in referring to what I had called the slave, is actually called the actuator. I believe Capt J has previously commented on...
Yes, you still have air in the system. Don't be afraid to work the throttle between bleeding sessions to work out any air. You should bleed all...
To answer your question, the inside does not have to be coated. Brand new they were raw castings. I suppose it wouldn't hurt anything to have it...
I just went thru the whole process you are going thru with 6V92's. After everything, the problem was air in the Hynautic hydraulic throttle...

Last weekend changed out secondary filters. Amazing how much stuff came out of the starboard filter. By the way I ran across a sticker that came...

The filters I removed had been on since who knows when, and the guy who tightened them down never read the instructions printed on them (OIL and...
As i stated in the title of this topic, I was asking for input regarding the rpm that these engines were able to achieve given the factors that...
Question. When I last changed the spin on secondary filters, they were as tight as any filter I had ever loosened, two wrenches and they still...
Okay, here is the latest. The fuel guy came down and worked his a-- off, had to figure how to work around all the tank baffles to get to the...
Now, I can't testify to this, but my wife said she saw a seagull riding around on one of the spinner things like a ride at an amusement park. I...
It can be done, question is, how much do you want to spend.
It's all good! What a stimulating conversation with a bunch of smart people.
Understood. Do big generators use any kind of pre-oiler? We were always careful to start at low idle and slowly apply load.
Correct me if I am wrong. The 3408 had a 60 degree V block and 90 degree offset ground crank. A pretty durable engine. It seemed to last well in...
