@WetDirtProductions no a 2 stroke diesel does not get its lubrication from its fuel like a 2 stroke gas engine will. they scavenge with a mechanical blower rather than with the backside of the piston
@WetDirtProductions They have oil in the crankcase and when the piston comes down it uncovers the intake. The intake has to be pressurized with a supercharger because there is no vacuum in the cylinder.
@WetDirtProductions the cylinder liners have holes in them about half way down from the top. The blower/supercharger is used to force air into the cylinders, a camshaft operates the exhaust valves and fuel injectors. When the exhaust valve opens and the piston is at BDC, the blower it acts like a scavaging effect on say a dirt bike with a pipe. the blower pushes the exhaust out thru the valve and puts in fresh air. They are very efficient actually because of this.
@WetDirtProductions there is a blower on the engine and when the piston moves down it reveals ports, the blower pushes fresh air in and the exhaust out.
@WetDirtProductions it has a blower on her, she intakes compressed air, through ports, not valves. injects fuel like a normal diesel.. then when the piston goes down a cam opens exhaust valves, letting air out. some detroits have turbos too. on top of the blowers.. the exhaust runs the turbo into the blower in to the engine. boosting power aot. without a blower, it would not intake air at the right presuure, and would not run.
i hear u can run the balls off these motors.....they even idle and run wit a hole in the block or hole in the piston n shit like that...old school tough...sound is awesome
That's the WONDERFUL thing about the old 2 stroke Detroits. You don't have to drive it all night. After driving it all day your ears will be ringing and you'll HEAR it all night!!! Sorta like an old John Deere 'D' aka JOHNNY POPPER.
its struggling because it needs a tune-up. it shouldnt be smoking like that going down the hill. set your valve lash and injector timing, run the rack, and set the governor gap as per the DD shop manual, youll feel the difference.
no, they don't. they redline at 2100-2150 rpm. they only sound like theyre revving higher because they have twice the number of power strokes per revolution. if you dont believe me, take a look at the ID plate on any detroit diesel and look at the governed speed stamped on the plate. 2100 RPM
@MDizzel16 ^^ i love that sound ... im so sorry ... now i know its a Fucking Detroit 2 stroke ... and i fucking LOVE THAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yehaaaaaa!!!!! really sry to you all!!!!!!
the old 2 strokes sound like they came from hell.With the right gears and if you turned them up those old detroits had killer top end!!! No big truck could keep up with you on flat ground until you came to a hill then its a different story
My 1980 Ford F-600 has a 6V-92TA and twin stacks and it sounds so mean down the highway. I love the old Jimmies! If a Jimmy is tuned right with the correct turbo/governor/injector set up and it will be able to keep with the new motors all day, remember a Cat will only turn 2100 and a Jimmy will do 2800 easy.
Unfortunately the problem with these motors is that they would only last around 350k-400 miles before an overhaul. The highest i heard was around 475k-500 no more then that.
how does it make that noise, like that really loud engine sound. like did you do anything to it to get that sound or is it just the way the engine is?? sounds awesome though, i enjoy it.
understand this... to drive a detroit you have to rap it out ive been doing it for years so quit being ignorant and saying hes driving it like a race car cuz hes not 500 bushel of corn is heavy
If you knew anything at all about a Detroit you'd know you gotta run them good and fast to have any power and torque. By the way max RPM (stock) for a Detroit is 2300 RPM and that sure as hell is not going to hurt it at all. So until you know what your talking about to back up what you say, shut the hell up because we don't want to listen to your ignorant stupidity
I read somewhere that depending on application different governor springs (or something?!) allow some of these to rev to 3000rpm, maybe military applications or something I cant remember and I may be wrong?
That is quite possible, but I was talking stock. Any damn fool can make and engine run faster, but if the factory limited it at that speed, it was not built to go faster and still be reliable
No I was talking factory application, I read somewhere that from the factory some revved to 3000rpm max.
I have noticed with other engines different max speeds from the factory, the higher revving ones had more power and needed a rebuild more often, typical example was the deltic engine 1500rpm and 1650bhp or 2000rpm and 2500bhp for military boats.
I was told that the different series motors were governed differently, which makes sense. A 53 series was governed higher than a 71 series which was governed higher than a 92 series. I don't remember the exact numbers though...
Is it like a 2 stroke dirt bike you gotta keep it rapped out to stay in the powerband? But diesels have a much wider powerband to begin with don't they?
Yes, most diesels have a wider power band, but you do have to keep the detroits reved up, but too all the older diesels of that era needed to be, the newer computer controlled engines don't because the computer manipulates everything so you can run it slower
Looks like an H body like a 1970's or older. My old boss has a 1968 GMC H body grain truck with a 292 6 banger, abit gutless but still holds it's own, Same dash as this, It must be an H body.
considering the fact that these engines practically helped build america, its funny how those pussy environmentalists "epa'd" these engines out of usefulness
You're right on the 2 stroke part, but i kind of disagree with you on the "doubt it has a jake brake" It's hard telling wether it does or doesn't. But i'm assuming it does.
sorry i had a mistake while referring to the 6-71 engine those are inline 6'ers, not V type engines,still they did a very good job whit those engines otherwise,they have had disapear long time ago
the only one that were converts were the 350 diesels in the cads and buicks and what not but the 6.2 was gutless and the 6.5 turbo made less horsepower and torque than the n/a 6.9 international in the fords and s 1900s
6.2 might not have had alot of power compared to some of the newer diesels, but they are solid engines. I had one go over 400,000 miles. Also, the 350 Olds diesel was NOT a converted gasser. The block looked the same on the outside, but the internals were much heavier. When was the last time you saw a gas engine that weighed 750 lbs??
they are by no means a "solid" engine. we replace probably on average 5 to 6 engines a month in humvees 6.2, 6.5, and 6.5T they all go in under a year of install as a rule of thumb. and thats even a engine that is considered a "beefed up" or "better" engine desing that "cured" all the problems those pos had.
the 6.5 wasn't a very reliable motor, but a 6.5 turbo could out tow the 6.9 international. The 6.2 wasn't a powerhouse, but it was never designed to be. They were designed to be economical and that they were. The olds was never a gasser, chevy had converted their 350's to diesel, they were the crud motors that you were thinking of.
id shit my britches if a 6.5 ever out pulled my 6.9 not to mention start adding things to it haha i personally have out pulled out run the gm diesels short of a duramax but hey ive tuned it up just a tad but with farm diesel no chevy could touch it
Necro, a 6.5 TURBO will out tow a 6.9 natural. A 6.9 N will outpull a 6.5N, however very very few 6.5N's were actually made. Keep in mind comparing a non turbo to a turbo is very unfair though. If you were to turbocharge a 6.9 it would outpull the 6.5 turbo. I am a cummins guy, but for that era If i had to have anything but cummins i would go with the 6.9, it combined power and reliability. The 6.5 just had power. Keep in mind the 6.5 is a replacement for a 6.9 ERA engine. The 6.2.
i understand where your coming from im just going on the experiences ive had hauling cows and scrap iron with my truck against my buddies dads but either way id rather have a 6b im working on putting my 6.9 into one of my late 70s 4 wheel pulls but also im rebuilding a turbo of an 7.3 idi for it with hopes of someday running twins one off each bank for reliabilty and space
i remember that sound its music to my ears,GMC6-v71 and 6-v92Turbo and non turbo was in the back of mexican busses up until the mid 90's,it was replaced by a detuned version of detroit diesel(60 series)and famsa trucks(international)until they used the mercedes-benz engines brought from germany(MB took over famsa and later used the brazilian MB engine)my brother says they're a bit slow but they won't let u down like cummins or perkins and that sound .......and their smoke...awesome
theres a truck im looking at buying its an international s line with a 6v92 supercharged plus turbo 350hp with 12 sp spicer box was an ex shell fuel truck in australia, aparently shell prefered the 2strokes
man if you take 1 hour or 10 hour video i will watching you greatttt.

they are by no means a "solid" engine. we replace probably on average 5 to 6 engines a month in humvees 6.2, 6.5, and 6.5T they all go in under a year of install as a rule of thumb. and thats even a engine that is considered a "beefed up" or "better" engine desing that "cured" all the problems those pos had.

they were built for fuel mileage not power

the 6.5 wasn't a very reliable motor, but a 6.5 turbo could out tow the 6.9 international. The 6.2 wasn't a powerhouse, but it was never designed to be. They were designed to be economical and that they were. The olds was never a gasser, chevy had converted their 350's to diesel, they were the crud motors that you were thinking of.

id shit my britches if a 6.5 ever out pulled my 6.9 not to mention start adding things to it haha i personally have out pulled out run the gm diesels short of a duramax but hey ive tuned it up just a tad but with farm diesel no chevy could touch it

Necro, a 6.5 TURBO will out tow a 6.9 natural. A 6.9 N will outpull a 6.5N, however very very few 6.5N's were actually made. Keep in mind comparing a non turbo to a turbo is very unfair though. If you were to turbocharge a 6.9 it would outpull the 6.5 turbo. I am a cummins guy, but for that era If i had to have anything but cummins i would go with the 6.9, it combined power and reliability. The 6.5 just had power. Keep in mind the 6.5 is a replacement for a 6.9 ERA engine. The 6.2.

i understand where your coming from im just going on the experiences ive had hauling cows and scrap iron with my truck against my buddies dads but either way id rather have a 6b im working on putting my 6.9 into one of my late 70s 4 wheel pulls but also im rebuilding a turbo of an 7.3 idi for it with hopes of someday running twins one off each bank for reliabilty and space

i remember that sound its music to my ears,GMC6-v71 and 6-v92Turbo and non turbo was in the back of mexican busses up until the mid 90's,it was replaced by a detuned version of detroit diesel(60 series)and famsa trucks(international)until they used the mercedes-benz engines brought from germany(MB took over famsa and later used the brazilian MB engine)my brother says they're a bit slow but they won't let u down like cummins or perkins and that sound .......and their smoke...awesome
