In this video, I really need to see what I have with the 1971 Pinto I recently purchased so I remove the left over stuff from the rodents, seats, rotten wet carpet, and headliner. I pressure wash it all to reveal significantly more rust than I was expecting. Either way I'm going to continue on.

Lawnmower Paddle Boat
zhlédnutí 5KPřed 4 měsíci
I mount a riding lawnmower into a boat. I add paddles that are powered by the lawnmower that provide forward and backward motion for the boat. I also rig a system that allows me to steer it using the steering wheel of the lawnmower. A one of a kind thing for sure! Please consider Subscribing and liking the video.

Which ifix it kit did you use?
Hi thanks for watching and the comments. It was the iFitIt kit. I think you may have already, but if not please consider Subscribing. I would really appreciate it.
Did the tape make a good solid bond without using primer?
Hi thanks for watching and the comments. Yes, it did for me. I think it's key to clean the areas very well before sticking the stuff down. Once it's stuck, it's stuck. I think you may have already but if not please consider Subscribing. I would really appreciate it!
Great job. I laughed during the video. Im doing this Exact motor and i'm in the house on break. Lol
Hi thanks for watching and the comments. Let me know how it goes for you and good luck. I think you may have already but if not please consider Subscribing. I would really appreciate it.
Blood for sure.lol

Freakin AWESOME 🎉
Hey! Thanks for watching and the comments. I really appreciate it. I think you may have already but if not please consider Subscribing. I would really appreciate it.
I am getting ready to replace 80 year old siding ( it did not leak) with vinyl and I too am concerned water will not return to the outside along the windows etc. . The standard way to install at ends of vinyl siding seems very risky and leaks are likely, almost certain. I like your idea but want to go further as water can still run behind the siding and could end up running off the vinyl to the wall. I don't like hoping and praying to prevent leaks. (which god should i pray too for leak prevention?) I want to be positive no water can enter the wall so I get at least 30 years on trash bag siding.
Hi thanks for watching and the comments. The way my windows were designed in an effort to eliminate the "J" channel around us horrible. As you could see there was no way that they wouldn't leak. I think that within a few years there will be huge lawsuits regarding vinyl siding. The installers really don't care and know they won't be anywhere around when problems start showing for home owners. Either way I think you may have already but if not please consider Subscribing and hitting the like button. I would really appreciate it.
First I’ve seen where someone removes the plastic side piece that covers the screws. Looks like you lined up the tape with the bottom of the channel for the plastic trim. ?? I’m doing it this weekend. Been iffy about sticking the tape on that plastic trim. I’m gonna remove it and lay it on like you did. Thanks for posting!
Hi thanks for watching and the comments. Yeah, my thoughts are the screws going thru the aluminum channel are an excellent source for a leak. They penetrate thru the extrusion and thru the roofing material. Usually there is only a small bead of caulk that seals the top edge of the extrusion. I pulled out the plastic strip that covers the screws and covered them with the tape. It might choke down the small gutter a little but they clog easily anyway. Good luck with your project. I think you may have already but if not please consider Subscribing. I would really appreciate it.
@@NINEPOINTFIVEPROJECTS Same, I gave thought to the gutter issue. Subbed.
Thanks! I appreciate it.
When I torque the rod arm to the crank the crank won’t turn it locks it up any idea why it is doing that
Hi thanks for watching and the comments. I'm not sure I'm following what you're asking.
Do you have new rods?
@@NINEPOINTFIVEPROJECTS no I reused the original ones just put in the new pistons
Hum, that's really odd. Do you have them turned the same direction as they were when you removed them? Is the crank pushed completely into the case? If you didn't get the crankshaft completely back into the case the rods might be binding when you tighten them down.
@@NINEPOINTFIVEPROJECTS I do have them the same direction they were removed along with the marks lined up. I will double check to make sure I have the crank pushed all the way in and I will let you know. Thanks for your help.
How the hell did you get that belt off ?
There's 2 idler pulleys that you can move by hand to get slack in the belt..if I remember correctly..
Or are talking about the blade belt?
@@NINEPOINTFIVEPROJECTS not the actual belt on the deck but the one that goes around the hydros around the 2 pulleys you replaced
As I remember you can move the 2 idler pulleys by hand to get enough slack in the belt. I believe they move outwards away from the center of the mower.
@@NINEPOINTFIVEPROJECTS tried that can't seem to get it so by your video I assume you got it by dropping the clutch assembly ?
I guess I need to see the long version
Hey, thanks for watching and the comments. I think you may have already but if not please consider Subscribing. I would really appreciate if.
Long version on my CZcams channel. CZcams.com/NinePointFiveProjects
Great Job!. I was shocked to see how clean you got the roof. When the weather cools a bit I'll be up on by roof. Only comment I would make is I would have painted both AC covers white. More reflective and keeps the unit running cooler. thank you!
Hi thanks for watching and the comments. RV,s are a ton of work. Someone needs to make a complete maintenance free model! Either way I think you may have already but if not please consider Subscribing and hitting the like button. I would really appreciate it!
I used toothpaste to scrub the calcified parts on the viewing glass, came out clean and spotless.
Hi thanks for watching and the comments. Great tip there, thanks. I think you may have already but if not please consider Subscribing. I would really appreciate.
apparently all you have to do is drill one or two small holes in the back of the speedometer (through the white plastic) so long as you are careful not to drill into any electronics. you can hold a bright LED light against the housing to see the shadow of electronics boards. the hole(s) allows the speedometer to breath and release the moisture.
Hi thanks for watching. I really don’t understand how HD would let that problem slide for so long. Either way I think you may have already but if not please consider Subscribing. I would really appreciate it.
Drill a 1/16th inch hole in the back just piercing the housing to equalize the temperature it will quit fogging up. I put up with mine that way since day one, I live in southern Oregon and deal with humidity and cool temperatures. Mine does not ever fog anymore. 2019 softail slim

Good job on the video. On the filters, they sell em on e-bay, along with air filters & a bunch of other parts. I am doing my valve guide seals this week, so yer video was timely.

I use the same Twin Power shoes on my 2005 Dyna. Having great luck with them. I checked them 1000 miles after installation, and virtually no wear. P.S. I run it hard!
Hi thanks for watching and the comments. Yeah when I checked mine they were wearing very well too. If you haven't done so already please consider Subscribing. I would really appreciate it! Thanks
Did you use 6" width or 4" width tape? Just wondering if one is easier to manage given how sticky this stuff is?
I used a combination of both. I think I went around vents and stuff on roof with 4" and a long the edges with 6". It is extremely sticky. As far as going along the edges I think I found the best solution as seen in the video. Let me know how it goes for you if you use it. Either way I think you may have already but if not please consider Subscribing and hitting the like button. I would really appreciate it!
One of the best how to videos I’ve ever watched. Thank you

Yeah I'm sorry to say buddy you could have bought something that looked way nicer and you wouldn't have had a gone through all that effort. Plus you would have saved yourself some money. Nevertheless you did a nice job man cool video thanks for uploading.
Hi thanks for watching and the comments. I have to disagree with you about some things. First I bought the device that actuates it on eBay for $75. I used scrap steel I had laying around. That and the bearings, shaft and bolts is all the cost I had in it. So, total cost near $100. I designed and built it because that's what I do and enjoy seeing my ideas come to life. I really doubt you could find anything to do this for less than $1000 bucks. Either way, all is good and I appreciate your feedback. I think you subscribed and I truly appreciate it. I'm an old timer and do this stuff because I enjoy it.
What about sound? I would have liked to have heard it.. I want to add a paddlewheel to a pontoon. My first thoughts were an electric hub motor on a bike rim with a belt drive,but then it wouldn't have reverse, then i thought maybe a golf cart motor,but,i think the plan of a solar powered paddle boat may be a tad over complicated.. i think i may just go this route,but use a smaller atv,but with a sternwheel instead of side.. plus, there's a lot of quieter exhaust pipes available for it... great idea.
Hi thanks for watching and the comments. Yes I never thought about it but recording the actual sound of it would have been interesting. Coming soon I am putting a zero turn in it. I will definitely record what it sounds like. Either way, I think you may have already but if not please consider Subscribing and hitting the like button. I would really appreciate it.

For the wood by the A/C that got wet you can soak it with Wood Hardener, it’s a resin that soaks into the wood, hardens and waterproofs. It can be screwed into without cracking.

Nice to see a warts and all fix. It's the same with car fix videos, their fix on video is always straight forward but when you do it you get seized bolts and and snapped connectors etc. Just broken my 7 pro so this will be useful. I've done about 3 phones before but always best to get as much info as you can for each model

Wish I had watched your video first. Would have been nice if Ifix it would have mentioned that plastic frame may stick in the phone.

@@NINEPOINTFIVEPROJECTS I've already subscribed since I saw you decide to fix the rust instead of junking the car like everyone was trying to get u to do or part it out saying that it wasn't worth it but you're like me and saw potential in the car and when it's not going to be all that hard to fix that lil bit of rust in the cowl and the floors . The rest of the car seems to be in pretty good shape and it won't be that bad to fix up. I like the little car myself ⁰
Great video, thank you. Mine is missing the metal plate in the air filter box. How important is that ?
.
So the carb replacement went fine, but now cart is very jerky when pressing the pedal slightly. Gets better when the pedal is pushed further, but as stated, stating out is very jerky. Any help is appreciated.
Wow, I don't have a clue on that one. Did it do any of that with the old carb?
Is the main drive belt good? No chunks of it missing?
No, didn’t do it at all before. Driver belt is good. On further inspection, I did find oil coming out around rhe spark plug on driver’s side. Looks like more than I’m able to handle. I really appreciate your responses and help though. Will.definitaley keep up with your videos !
Great video, thank you. Mine is missing the metal plate in the air filter box. How important is that ?

I have subscribed , thanks again !
I just subscribed to you, with all of the ppl saying scrap it and only 1 of me hoping to see u save it and you actually decided to that was deserving of a sub. I can't wait to see it fixed and up and running again. You're going to love that thing when you get it finished and what you're fixing will never be seen and may end up better or stronger than factory because we tend to over do things sometimes 😂 that rat pee is probably what caused the rust . I'll be keeping up with this thing and thanks for saving it and not taking the lazý way out and parting it out. Its ģoing to be a fun project and fun car to drive when you get it finished with it. I love my 79 pinto that I put v8 stroker 347 in it and it's too much fun
Hi thanks for watching, commenting and especially Subscribing. Yeah I know I will love it and look forward to the day I have it completed. My first car was a 1972 Runabout just like this one only it was a stick shift. My wife and I dated in it back then. I had several people tell me to put a V8 in it, but I'm just going back with the 2.0. I went to your CZcams channel and checked out some of your videos. Nice ride for sure! I also Subscribed! Thanks again.
@@NINEPOINTFIVEPROJECTS⅚ I appreciate the sub, I am in the middle of putting a half hatch on mine, it came on the first year pintos only in 71 so they are fairly rare for what they are and wanted one after seeing one. That's cool that you are fixing up a pinto yall dated in and now yall get to go on more dates in one that you saved
I built a new firewall for my 1976 Bobcat. It was a big project. But I'm pleased with it. I will have a video on it in a week or so.
Hi thanks for watching and the comments. I just found your channel and Subscribed. I'm going to check out your videos. Many people think I'm crazy to do what I'm doing in reworking the old car, but I'm a "I'm going to make it happen" kinda guy. Either way I think you may have already but if not please consider Subscribing. I would appreciate it.
@@NINEPOINTFIVEPROJECTS Subscribed yesterday, cool car.
I'm not really a car guy but this is really fun :) I've built 3 airplanes so I know about dedication and you are dedicated! Keep at it. Can't wait to see it driving.
Hi thanks for watching and the comments. I'm sure building airplanes require a lot more finesse than my old car. That would be interesting to watch. Do you have a CZcams channel? Either way if you haven't done so already please consider Subscribing. I would really appreciate it.
That's definitely some rust! I wonder if it would be possible to find another Pinto in a wrecking yard someplace to get parts from. Your DIY skills are definitely a lot better than mine, I think I would have given up. I'm looking forward to see how the fabrication goes.
Hi thanks for watching and ythe comments. I'm sure it would be easier to just chunk this car and to get another, but being an old "I'm going to make it happen" kinda guy, I'm going to continue with this car. If you haven't done so already, please consider Susbscribing. I would really appreciate it!
@@NINEPOINTFIVEPROJECTS I didn't mean rebuild a different car, I meant get parts from another one for this one. Already subscribed🙂
Yeah that would be nice! Thanks for the Subscription!
Wow, that's a labor of love!. Nice part is, all Pintos are the same
Hi thanks for watching and the comments! Yeah its going to require a ton of work and money to get it back to where I'm comfortable with it, but I will eventually get there. I think you may have already but if not please consider Subscribing. I would really appreciate it.

Hi thanks for watching and the comments. I would imagine it would be pretty loud if you removed the muffler! Just leave the exhaust pipe on the engine. Either way I think you may have already but if not please consider Subscribing and hitting the like button. I would really appreciate it.
So, what I've seen on other channels is that you do not want to use any type of sealer because if you don't let it breathe it will fog up.
Hi thanks for watching and the comments. That makes a lot of sense and I think some have drilled a vent hole in the back, but it's sealed from the factory. Either way I think you may have already but if not please consider Subscribing and hitting the like button. I would really appreciate it.

There must be plenty of space between the pistons & the valves & doing the timing belt wrong with most other engine would be a bent valve or 2.
Hi thanks for watching and the comments. I'm not sure if the engine is a non-contact engine or not.
