So, the engine preheats well and turns well with the starter:



and it starts but it turns like a potato. I had to use a verry little bit from start pilot to launch it . I did not dare to let it run longer because no cooling system. he turn like the last time before the screw ran away and knocked out my rocker rod!



to be continued ...

I had to insist many timesbut now that works without start pilot!



and after having purged the system of diesel, it turns very well ! it smokes a bit but I put that on the back of the moisture and the first real start, the time that everything cleans. we will see later if it continues


next step, mount and fill the cooling system !

a little mechanics on this Sunday!

I start by changing my nipple brake jar, until then ... not too complicated!



Yesterday, I went to put a paint on the radiator, I did checked it and it is in perfect condiction except a few fins a little twisted! cool



receiving new cooling hoses!



everybody is in place !









radiator in place !



I put all in water and disaster! leak on the water pump! I empty, I disassemble the water pump and of course, the round seal has dry and it died .... so i have to change the water pump because the circulation fin has broken during disassembly!






so ! another 100 € ticket that will fly for the water pump ...

is this water pump ok for my om636 ?

here is mine :



to be continued !

great updates - panzerjim really love the colour of yours!

after communication problem with a seller on eBay on the model of my waterpump, i get the good one !



waterpump in place !



I put all the water, no leak, it turns round, but even after 10 minutes, engine operating temperature, it smokes gray so the injection pump is shifted! little bit, but shifted!





after 20 minutes of intoxication of the garage , the engine limps a little and stops running! big shot of freak, not just the diesel pump that debits no more + air intake at the level of the manual priming pump .... decidedly ... I dismount the injection pump and the diesel pump to take the measurements and see the model. good news, it is standard:



it is ordered, there is only to wait! In the meantime, I will again work on the injection pump setting ...

to be continued !

Those who persevere always win, and the winner takes it all

the little mail for the gasoil pump from the seller :

"Hello

pump not available at Bosch, not available either at other manufacturers.

Order refunded in full this day."

he don't want to run anymore this truck

hi everybody !

i'm restarting working on the 319 !! i've got many work because of the little storm we got in Bretagne, and with the negative temperature, it was impossible to work in my unheated garage ....

so i get an additionnal pump with a friend who work on bus, finally the main pump is good.





bye !

Nice work Jim..must be pleased with your new pump.

I know what you mean about the minus temperatures, impossible for me to lay concrete now..

a colleague who is a dieselist came tonight to give me a hand to stall the injection pump because it always smokes gray

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Upr182v4voQ

suddenly after normally well stalled, we purge and there ... paf! one of the two bleed screws of the injection pump brakes ...





let's go to find another one

a little bit luck in this history ! i find the broken screw in a New Holland (Farmer machines) dealer !



i just have to find something or someone to extract to old inside. I tryed to drill, but every time my drill went in the hole of the screw ...

hi everybody !

so it's good, the bleed screw was extracted with a mechanic. everything is reassembled, purged and it always smokes gray ... ... will have to play with the fine adjustment of the injection pump

then I settled a problem of clutch: impossible to disengage .... after consulting with a colleague, the clutch disc was relined too thick, so i fall (again ... ) the gearbox



I go with my little disk to the company that I have replenished it, and there surprise, the guy tell me that it will not be less thick .... well, oh well! I go home and I will use the last solution, play with the adjustment bolts on the mechanism



For the joke, once all reassembled, I had forgotten a clip of the thrust clutch ... and fall again

then I finished reassembling the handbrake system, fix the exhaust pipe permanently, refit the passenger side step + a lil bit of sheet on the amount. (forget about photo .......)



and there I say to myself, it starts despite it smokes gray, it brakes, it engages, the steering wheel turns, the weather isn't too ugly .... it's too tempting: Come on ! let's go for a ride !









after 10m ride, return to the shed, it feels good to re-ride with!



tomorrow i continue the body work !

formidable. mais quelle avonture avez vous avec le 319..et je pense, cette avonture se continue

Nice to see your L319D on its wheels again !
I hope it will be ready for may !
