Hi Folks, I am starting to build a cummins 6ct engine and I have some major doubts.
It is my first engine tuning and so I want the opinion of people with experience. Firstly:
The shirts have two grooves, in which one should I put the adjustment o ring? Should I put in addition some seal or only oil for the assembly?
In the crankshaft, I can see that in cylinders 1, 2 and 3 there are some small plastic tubes that are in some holes and point towards the bottom of the piston, but in cylinders 4, 5 and 6 these small tubes are not. .. You probably had them and they fell into a past arrangement? check the crankcase and there are no remains of these. Should I put oil or a seal under the connecting rod bearings? What is the amount of torque for the connecting rod bolts? I sincerely appreciate all the help.
