In this video we finally discuss the Diesel Fuel system in a class format that started 2 years ago with the Diesel Engines 101 class. This video discusses the basic principles of the fuel nozzle, high pressure pump, MUI fuel system and lays a basic foundation for the next class on the electronic fuel systems.

    trying to become a diesel mechanic with no experience is difficult. I do gotta say most of my interviews they were impressed I knew so much without having experience. Thanks to you Adept Ape!
  • @danielgore886
    Being a heavy equipment mechanic for 20 years, you still learn all the time. I love watching your videos to see if I can learn anything new, or even just to brush up. Thanks again for all you do!
  • @casebogue6526
    Your diesel 101 videos taught me so much thank you for taking the time to make these
  • @garykirk1968
    I had to give the owners, managers, and other mechanics all an in depth description on how the emissions systems on these trucks work. I was hired as a welder.. Let that sink in, I greatly appreciate these series as I can just point them to these videos. And my time is spent much more efficiently on the projects I am supposed to be working on. Keep them coming brother!

    Thanks for continuing on with the "101" course series. It's nice to learn from an actual professional with years of hands on experience. Looking forward to the next class. Cheers!
  • @tktnidjet
    You are so good at breaking down complex physics principals and then keeping the relevant info and tying it all together without making it overwhelming!
  • @markm0000
    Thanks for clearing that up. I didn’t know how exactly a high pressure pump worked I always thought it was just a black box of magic.

    All those who are looking that are looking to get in this trade, my advice as a 30 year experience, ive worked on heavy duty trucks, excavators, dozers, buckeye trenchers, go into with confidence, but be humble, go in as someone who has the feeling you can do it, but never talk as though you know it all, even to this day im still learning, always more to learn, and things change. Be willing to do the bottom of the chain work for few years, and in about 5 years you will quickly rise up in the chain. You are lucky today, because have youtube and internet to be able to learn alot quicker and with far more range of equipment. Dont let others discourage you and listen when people are giving advice.
  • I'm not a mechanic but I understood your explanation. You have teaching skills. Maybe you should be in a technical school. Great video.
  • I love your work, I am a new watcher and can get a decent understanding just by listening to you. I am blind and you do a very very good job of explaining so thank you and keep it up.
  • You are awesome man. There are a lot of diesel channels on YouTube but you are by far the best. You can make difficult concepts easy to understand. Too bad being a diesel tech instructor doesn’t pay very good because you would be the best.
  • Thank you for the refresher.I already completed 2 levels of schooling for my 310T apprenticeship. I learn something every time I watch Your vids.
  • I remember diesel fuel systems class at UNOH in the early '80s. No electronics, port& helix, cummins PT, Detriot rack systems.

    I've just bought a Kubota L3800 and slasher. This class has been invaluable for someone who needs to sort out little issues on the run. Thank you heaps. Mike from Australia 🇦🇺
  • I saw a cool experiment by kt3406e where after he disassembled the runaway detroit and hit the top of the injector with a sledgehammer while in the air to demonstrate how it sprays
  • @zayin123
    "This goes into there." HA, excellent. Well done, great video.
  • @Rayden440
    Thank you for making these videos! As a student in Canada going through the required schooling to become a diesel apprentice, these videos are invaluable.
  • @davidkochis285
    Great job Josh. As a novice I’m enjoying all the 101 videos. Can’t wait for the next fuel video as well. Great information.
