You can run the overhead, on your Caterpillar 3176 diesel engine with a Jake brake, by removing the Jake brake. Next, remove the valve cover. Adjust the overhead with the adjustment screws.
To run overhead on a c7 Cat engine, you will have to adjust the valves in order to return them to where they should be. In order to do this you will need feeler gauges in order to bring it back to where they were set by the factory.
You can run the overhead, on your 3126 Caterpillar diesel engine, by removing the valve covers. The overhead can be adjusted with the adjusting screws.
If the cat was totally blocked, the engine may start and run briefly for a few seconds. If the cat was partially blocked the engine would run but lack serious power.
Well if it takes you more than 30 seconds to check it, check the engine stopped. If just after the engine run.
The pipes run overhead in the ceilling. The overhead luggage compartment is quite small.
OHV engines run with the camshaft built into the cylinder block, unlike SV engines (no longer used) where they run parallel to the cylinder block. More commonly used in the modern world are OHC (overhead camshaft) engines, which run in a similar manner to OHV engines, eliminate the need for pushrods. The function however? Is the same as any other engine; to spin an axle with high RPM/Torque depending on application.
There are so many variables in answering this question. A standard v8 engine will have 16 lobes, 1 for each valve while an overhead cam engine will run 2 cams with 8 on each side.
If the engine was designed to run with a cat fitted, the answer is yes, but the emissions would be out of acceptable limits. Most diesels are not cat equipped, but by the nature of being a diesel, they are injection engines. Know that is is illegal to remove a catalytic converter without replacing it with another one.
The duration of Cat Run is 1.7 hours.
Varies by engine. A Cummins will run about 40 at idle, whereas a PACCAR MX will run about 80.
