5 Cat Engine Facts Most People Don't Know Are True.

Your videos are always full of great information. I’m getting ready to start a equipment technician program that’s sponsored by Quinn CAT at a local community college. I watch your videos to get some training on the company and their products. Keep up the great work!

I did enjoy that, I’m such a diesel nerd :D I was fascinated by the Mitsubishi D3 and there were generators with komatsu gauges.

Great Video Josh as always I found it interesting that Cat only used one electrical connection. I have found other proprietary Cat features that really refine them Maybe you could do a video on the origins?Ive noticed Fastners,Hydraulic couplers Turbos and the cast iron It makes for a better product because everything is built to their standards

Interesting trivia about Cat diesel engines . Always amazed with your video content Josh. Learn something new every time . THANKS Amigo.....

My stepdad has an old Ford 9000 and they did the same on that truck and That Was 1980 Something. And she's still a good driver to this day.

By the way I love ur videos ur mic is great u can explain things great too. Great job man

There are more than one "Cat Yellows". I used to work as a cat engine mech here in Finland, and we always had to check which cat yellow we order as some engines were of lighter yellow than others. So, we had two different cat yellow spray cans to choose.

Thanks for sharing this info, Subscribed to you're channel

A friend has a CAT engine in his trike, mated to a 5 speed BMW gear box and a Ford back axle. The engine was out of a gen set , a three cylinder, CAT technical helped him along the way as a gen set runs a one speed a trike car ect needs a rev range. Top speed 65mph but excellent fuel economy.

Thank you! I am glad that I found your channel and subscribed. I just wish that I had found it sooner.

I’m an agricultural engineer for a claas dealer, some claas combines use cat engines and they are painted in a claas grey, no hint of yellow underneath that paint either

Great stuff...love it

The 3406A model Cats were painted white. Also the Ford LN9000 trucks had tilted engines when using the 3406 engines but they also done the same when using the 14 litre Cummins Big cam engine. I think it was all just a matter of fitting the larger engines under a short hood and the doghouse in the cab. Also Cat over the years has used many different shades of Cat yellow for their yellow paint.

Very cool CAT trivia. Thanks!

The injectors on some of Cat Engines (HEUI's and C's) had not the regular Deutsch Connector style, because are made by Navistar. Under an emergency situation, I used injectors from a DT466E on a Cat engine. No issues (no trim code modified). And regarding the Cat yellow paint... that paint is also designed to change the shade of yellow towards the darker brown, even black, depending of how hot the component has being working. So that way, the Tech only need a quick look to find overheated component. CAT even have charts with the color shade and it's temperature range related

Neat video! Related to #1, Cat built olive drab-colored engines for military vehicles. My M35A3 has a olive drab 3116 in it.

Thats what i thought ! I have have 3 olympian gensets that have the 4cyl perkapillars in them ! Good engines for being 20 years old !

In regards to the deal with the connectors, the term you're looking for is "commonality." Many believe the amount commonality a product has is an example of how well it was designed and engineered. Personally I find that a very hard statement to argue

I have worked on 7 ships with 24 Cat engines between them. Main engines, generators, standby generators, emergency generators, every one of them was yellow.
