I worked on Detroits but it was years ago not. I remember the rack now that you say it. I knew the cam didn’t control fueling… I want a Detroit firetruck bad!
Youre my new best friend. Where the hell did you work on detroits? I didnt think you were that old.
Haha… Good old armed forces my friend. We still had many 2 stroke detroits kickin around between old fire engines to the huge osh kosh runway snow blowers that had a 6V92 to power the snow blower and a 6-71 to actually propel the truck
But ours were green
I also worked on old Cummins, Cats, International, Multi fuel Continental, and Pratt & Whitney, ect…
as well as many gasoline engines
One of the guys at my job had a Detroit S50 run away on him after replacing a blowen turbo. He never cleaned out the filled up IC. Fired it up and never came back.
i love old osh kosh trucks, so pissed off looking
