Can we saw OUCHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH that hurt

 

[Snoxracer]

Been there? Man does that suck! Is this off your truck Triton?

 

[MStrain]

What were you doing when that happened, dropping the kids off at school or something a little more fun?

 

[Triton]

Snoxracer : yeah it's my truck. see below

MStrain : I was playing at the track. It was my own fault but, that's what I get for playing hard. Not a problem though since I had planned to build my motor anyway.

My truck is at Scheid diesel now getting a custom rebuild.

if you or anyone cares to read more about it... ...

a little long but, could really use some tech help... ... ... - Dodge Diesel - Diesel Truck Resource Forums

2 things:



1. A motor is electric, what you have is an ENGINE. As many, and most all of vehicles have--sorry my pet peave.



2. Where in NC are you? I'm on the NC line in VA, Galax area. You mention 1/4 mile, nearest to me is Rockingham, near there?



ON EDIT: heck I didnt realize you were Triton, I met you and talked at the pull after Smokin', I'm Mikey. You need to bring your truck up once done and check out Joe's new shop--NICE. BTW-I'm the one that broke the output at the drags at Smoikin'.

So a melted piston in a common rail automatically means its a stuck injector?:-laf



I hope I never toast a piston in my motor.

SO... ... . you've got a MOTOR as well, do you run it off of Litheum batterys or 3-phase with a long cord??:-laf:-laf



J/K, carnage sucks as I have experinced alot of it.



I didnt realize, wasnt the post I saw on DTR about injectors..... STUPID on me. We had a a case of stuck aftermarket injectors on ScottyG's truck a couple of weeks ago, good thing it reared it's head b-4 road trip.



I was hoping I edited in time, but you caught me Jwilliams, 1-POINT to you.

Hey Mike ! yeah I remember you. I still have the card Wes gave me and did plan to come up and see you guys. You were talking about getting a cool track going in your neck of the woods.

yeah my " engine " has seen a little fun since watching you guys have all the fun. Didn't plan to break so soon but, it's ok... I wanted a built mot... whoops " engine " anyway Maybe now I'll have a little competition for you guys :-laf not !

The track I was at is Atlanta dragway in Commerce GA. Are you guys planning coming down for the Hayes Mopar event there coming up in Sept? I'm pretty sure it's a DHRA event too. It should be my first official track time with the new setup.

Will definitely plan a road trip to see the new shop.

Not sure where he saw that but, he did edit his post. I don't think it had anything to do with an injector. I roasted it because of too much heat... period.

Too much pressure running the stack I was, not a long enough cool down period between runs, not enough boost... just under 40 and a stock turbo.
It was completely my own fault but, that's a day at the track. Maybe not everyone will do the damage I did but, breaking things is all a part of the game.

Now, I'll be set to pull or drag with a bit more security than a stock truck has :-laf

 

[Rebel Ram]

Not wanting to hijack this thread but for discusion perposes, I have a few quik questions. Would a stuck injector on a common rail "continualy" deliver fuel because of constant rail pressure at a full or limited rate? And how could this be discovered before damage? What would be the symptomes be? What would be the signs of a stuck injector on a 12 valve or 24 VP?

:-laf thank you

 

[nickleinonen]

en·gine (ěn'jĭn) Pronunciation Key

n.



1. A machine that converts energy into mechanical force or motion.

2. Such a machine distinguished from an electric, spring-driven, or hydraulic motor by its use of a fuel.

An [engine] whose effect is to produce kinetic energy output from a fuel source is called a prime mover alternatively, a device that also produces kinetic energy, but from a preprocessed "fuel" such as electricity, a flow of hydraulic fluid or compressed air is called a motor. Unfortunately some everyday English language confusion about this delineation exists that sometimes leads to expensive errors. For example, a service specialist (an electrical engineer) might be called upon to travel some way to examine a faulty "motor" - to find on arrival at the site that the so-called "motor", is in fact, a rather large diesel engine that he has no knowledge of being outside his area of specialisation!



An ordinary car (up to the present time) has a starter motor, a windscreen wiper motor, windscreen washer motor, a fuel pump motor and motors to adjust the wing mirrors from within the car - but the power plant that propels the car is an engine. Again an aircraft will have many motors installed for operation of its many auxiliary operations and services, but aircraft are propelled by engines, in this case, jet engines.

By your definition all motorcycles are electric. Tell that to a Hell's Angel:-laf



All engines have some fire in them, except computer nerd search "engines" like google, yahoo and other weird, nerdy names.



Oh, wait, some model airplanes have electric engines.



James Watt must be turning in his grave. Why have we named electric power after him, Watts?





How's this one: Why do you add MOTOR oil to your engine?

 

[Triton]

are you serious dudes ?? what does it really matter ? I think anyone who sees motor or engine will know what's being talked about.

I agree a motor is more defined by electrical current and a engine is one that has some sort of combustion but, damn ! it's a figure of speach :-laf

anyway. . that's some melted pistons ain't it !

 

[WPeschel]

Who cares!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Its a CUMMINS... ... Sorry to hear about your damage... There seems to be alot of CR failures lately. . All my pistons were in good shape except the one that was beat to crap by the valve seat that decided to jump out... .

 

[Rebel Ram]

And I thought my questions were a little off topic. :-{}

really!!!! what are you going to do to the engine when you go back together, cam inj etc etc etc... .....

 

[RColston]

I'd really like to respond... :-laf... . but I'm rolling on the floor thinking about the engine vs motor debate.....
