Cold Starting Up CATERPILLAR Engines and Cool Sound

FFS. Why don’t they use easy start for the old engines ?

Kocham to

Stupid sound you mean

J’ai adoré travailler sur les chenilles marines pendant de nombreuses années, ma préoccupation était le moteur électronique où j’avais plus de problèmes à cause de... Électronique !

Dude you don't even know how to f**** start a😢

They have some great batteries.

sound like no more pressure

They are hard to start, but once they get that first off they will run all day with no issue and can be shut down and restarted over and over

These engines were absolute garbage in a locomotive application. Gutless, ornery, high maintenance shop queens. Guaranteed two weeks or more in the repair track after being beat on. Every one I ever ran was disappointing. Worn out EMD could run circles around one of these. If it was a leased unit, our motto was "burn it down and send it back" 🤣

In childhood I always thought that caterpillar products use electric motors that powered by something like fuel pills I don't know why?

Very big machine

🙂👍🇵🇹

3208. Best starting engine in our fleet. On the coldest of days that thing pops right off.

I made a career out of working on EMD Locomotives, and when Cat bought EMD, our quality went to hell

I only lasted 1.5 minutes, could not take all that cranking with no start, not good.

I'll take the KT Cummings over any cat

She’s tired ,

And today we are going to learn about hearing protection......
........ha? ...say what?...

C15??? C18??? C27???

How dare you ? I love it

Saw some huge cat engines working in Louisiana in the oilfield industry and overhauled some smaller ones loaders 4 & 6 cylinders tough as nails

nothing beats a 3512 powered frac pump coming alive in 0 degree weather as far as cat engines go

I have no clue why Cat would stay in Illinois and be taxed to death...

My family has been building Caterpillar Equipment since the company was established. I am probably the only one in the family that has not worked for them.

Their work boots are overrated and overpriced. Made in China crap

You think they are bad boys.Just watch an English Electric class 37 engine start from cold. You want smoke......You got it and flames for fun.

Hunk and the yellow 💛 lion of Voltron!

CAT DIESEL POWER 👍

I am not familiar with the quality of cat engines, but if you look at the first two engines, it seems tha CAT makes very high quality starters :)

I guess Cats are the diesel equivalent to the McCullough chain saw? Can't start 'em, but once they go its fine? Ever see a chainsaw murderer use a McCullough? Nope.

When you start them cold and you listen to them for a while as they warm up you can hear them tighten up. At the end of the day you let them idol for 15 minutes before you shut them off and you can hear the sound of the motor change. You can get very attached to a caterpillar.
It goes way past customer loyalty.

why am I so obsessed with those engines? Am I sick?

That 2nd guy burned the starter up almost

Caterpillars contribution to global warming

A bunch of cold blooded cat engines starting they never start good unless it’s 100 degrees outside

those newer engines are so much cleaner on start up.some of the old ones, you need a gas mask by the time their firing on all the cylinders.

Is that Gasoline engine

We are looking for 3600 series cores. Gas.

My husband obsessed....

I guess the idea is to crank it till the starter gets hot enough to heat the engine.

The Machine Spirit needs to be apeased.

It must take one hell of an electrica motor to crank engines like these!!

As an h/d truck tech in the late 70's early 80's, the 1693's, 3406's & 3408's were the gold standard for truck engines, commanded respect and admiration from drivers and techs alike. If there was any way you could afford one you got one. The high pitched "snap" of them firing was music to our ears

Bravo colleagues, cool channel.
Very powerful

Caterpillar genset super heavy duty... All system destroyed burn but the engine and motor not have any single problems ☺️☺️☺️ TC settings is the winner against BTDC or TDC🤣🤣🤣
