It dropped to -5 C last night on the yard here, these girls took a fair bit of starting, but after a bit of patience we got there. Ran out of start pilot (Cold start system), so had to resort to jumper pack and air cleaners out and a squirt of "gypsys breath" (easy start) down the air lines.
Ran them up for a while to warm and mix the oils, then took oil samples from main compartments, engine, transmission, hydraulics, steering, left & right final drives and the Diffs. Not enough room to run them round the yard so axle oils not as mixed up as id like for a good sample, oil not warm either, so was a bit slow filling the sample bottle.
Whilst on yard took a couple of pics of 2 new 777Fs but camera died, so will take a few more later.

Years ago i used to work on various coal sites in Scotland where 3311CsDs and Es were the order of the day.The 3311Cs were all Detriot V16 motors on air start.No batteries just a good compressor!
at that time 777s and 777Bs were on the scene.Also there were a few old 769Bs and 773As owned by RJ Levack.They were good trucks.

TR100s MMM Did these trucks come from Skares Rd OCCS By any-chance?

Lot easier to sample with the ride legs blown up

Not bad trucks really. Easy to Bank up.
