WEBJan 9, 2019 — Below is a parts book drawing of a typical 4-71 Detroit water manifold showing the thermostat. Not the petcock circled in red that needs to be open when filling the radiator to bleed off any air in the system.

Detroit 471 Reverseing - Heavy Equipment Forums
WEBJan 16, 2015 — Jan 15, 2015. #1. I need some input from Detroit experts. A customer brought me a 471 Detroit today, it came off a water pump from the local water works and only has 138 hours on it, I assume it is from the 70's.

WEBMay 13, 2010 — SAE 30 was the old Detroit oil spec. Detroit has since done some research and found SAE 40 gives better results. SAE 30 would be used in very cold climates. And as Cowboy Billy noted, it must be a CF-2 oil, and it should have a …
Detroit 4-71 runaway and diesel in air box - Heavy Equipment …
WEB198. Location. Kenya. Feb 13, 2023. #1. Hi all, I’ve got a Detroit 4-71 which I retro-fitted into an IH TD-14A bulldozer.

I assumed initially that the run away was caused by the level of oil rising due to the ...

WEBSep 25, 2012 — BTW, anytime the subject of Detroit engine comes up, I'm always compelled to ask if the user is using multigrade (15W/40) diesel oil.

WEBJan 8, 2019 — There was also a 667 that had the 4-53. In the 666D there was a Cummins option. I have never seen or heard of a 666 with a 3-53 in the states. The smaller 653 skidders normally had the 3-53 engine. The tranny's were the bulletproof Clark transmissions in all of them and the rear ends had heavy planetary axles in all of them.

WEBJan 8, 2019 — Try Northern Machine in Duluth, Minnesota. They typically have a few used and rebuilt Detroit engines in stock. They also have tons of Detroit parts both new and used in stock. My guess says both head and block should be available. Although 4-53 blocks are getting tougher to keep on hand.
