I was called out by a customer on a 3-53 Detroit 3 days ago. I didn't get to the machine until yesterday since it has been crazy hectic here. I was told that this machine had been running on this job (wasn't told exactly when) and that for some reason their mechanic had decided it needed fuel filters. The owner then told me that the machine had been down for 2 weeks while his mechanic had been screwing with it, and thought all he had done was mess with the fuel lines...….Below is a few pics of what I found when I got there.
As you can see, there is one of the fuel filters off its base and all the fuel lines have been removed or altered. I was told that the mechanic had installed a new fuel supply pump with no results.
A nice pile of fittings with some damaged and no restricted fitting at all.
