Here is the easy process for reloading string/line onto the Homelite model UT26. It’s super easy, just keep it clean, that’s my only recommendation :) Happy weed whackin’
This Old Tractor: Hydraulic issues on the Massey Ferguson 135
zhlédnutí 8KPřed 4 lety
Tried to fire up the backhoe to do a bit of digging. It ended up blowing the pump. I assume that the pressure got a bit (very) high due to a blockage or an issue with the pressure relief valve. Any thoughts are appreciated Thanks for watching
This old snowblower: Toro Sno Pup. Part II
zhlédnutí 1,9KPřed 4 lety
This old Sno Pup actually turned out quite nicely, well... it works! Can't wait to try it out in some snow and see how well it does or doesn't work. Thanks again to Brian up in Qualicum for hooking us up with this sweet machine!
This old snowblower: Toro Sno Pup - part 1
zhlédnutí 1,5KPřed 4 lety
HUGE thanks to Brian up in Qualicum for the Sno Pup! Can't wait to get this thing running. I believe Toro started making the Sno Pup in 1962. Will have to take a look at that model/serial number to see when it was actually made. Let's hope we get at least a LITTLE bit of snow now to have a little snowblower challenge this winter! I need to see where the primer line goes, clean the tank, dust it...
This Old Lawnmower - Big power for an old Scotts 1742S.
zhlédnutí 330Před 5 lety
Bought this Scotts mower a few months ago, not running, and with a crummy 8hp briggs thrown onto it. We happened to have this big twin sitting on an old Craftsman with no deck. It only made sense to bolt it in, make it work, and see what happens! Any bets on how long it will do a 'wheelie'? We will see, on another episode of: This Old Lawnmower
Homelite 26cc gas trimmer review. Model: UT26CSEMC
zhlédnutí 109KPřed 5 lety
www.homedepot.ca/product/homelite-26cc-curve-shaft-gas-string-trimmer/1001034017 This is a fantastic weed whacker / grass trimmer. I believe it’s the best budget unit out there! Simple to gas up and go! No dicking around. No replacing shitty batteries every year to see a trimmer 1.5 times the price of this actually perform well.... See this video for how to reload string/line: czcams.com/video/...

$60 FJ-09 seat upgrade
zhlédnutí 22KPřed 7 lety
I was SO tired of the seat on my 2015 Yamaha FJ-09. I was also tired of seeing $500-900 dollar price tags for a replacement seat that would be comfortable. I'll be testing this seat this year as I ride. Hoping it holds up, but also hoping I hold up over more and more miles enjoyed on this otherwise AWESOME motorbike

Thank the Lord for CZcams. This is perfect. Thank you.
Video gave me a peek at the only hose the mice ate while mine was sitting for a decade, thanks for the assist
Didn't show jack replacing gasket
Awesome job. This should be on the Homelite/Home Depot website

Oh my gosh, thank you for this video. I have owned quite a few string trimmers over the years, and although I am quite mechanical, I swear this head had me stumped because of the poor instructions in the Operators Manual. I fought this dang head trying to wind the string with the head out, no wonder I was having such a hard time. Apologies to whomever designed this, as I was cussing them out & wondered how stupid someone could be to make such a head. Joke was on me, actually quite a remarkable way to wind the string up.
What a crap video
Stupid question for you when you put the new bushing. In for the rear tire, the small one on the left side. Is it easy to take In-N-Out when you put the new one in or no?
Yikes ! Get a tripod.
Y como le cambias el puto Hilo no mames
All these videos on here about this weed eater and nobody shows how to take that string head off
False. I have a video czcams.com/video/-DjXknVmxIE/video.htmlsi=2ID1DaXFsyntSCKn
i have this same truck, 136k miles . been absolutely a fantastic vehicle. worst thing to say about it was the sync sound system ! changed out to a kenwood with polk audio speakers massive improvement . as a post script to this comment i did a trans flush at 120k due to a dodgy low shift hesitation . it really helped the shifting nice and smooth now. i had some difficulty finding shops that wanted to do it due to the mileage but it was worth it for me.
How do you take the top off? That’s the part I needed.
I found 1 for sell, what should i pay? 150?
Link to buy battery from eBay please
you need a cameraman

I'm about to do this too... hoe many grommets do I need for this?
Also, I'm sure you know now but redundant positive pins are rigged a heat fuse
This truly helped me a lot, now I'm just side eyeing my impact thinking if you let yours go in 2015 then hope have I in 2023
I might be 10 years late , but did this set up work? I was thinking of doing the same thing now
Anyone know what brush cutter blade will fit this?
For the last 18 months I've not let the lawn crew edge or use a weed eater in my back yard. czcams.com/users/postUgkx_rBCFuDW1zD6blTGhLkvAkxU657uR_lG I didn't like the fact that they just kept cutting the edge of the lawn further and further from the rock lining the flower beds and leaving bare ground. And the grass was trimmed or scalped several feet around trees, etc. It was a constant battle with them so I told them to just mow and no trimming. I have Zoysia grass so it grows pretty slow. Obviously after a while it could use some trimming. I'm in my 80's so I can't do much of it myself.Finally I decided that if I could find a lightweight battery powered trimmer I might be able to do some light trimming. I decided to buy the LST201 20V trimmer. And it works great for my needs. I have back yard with about 150' of flower beds and several trees to be trimmed. I can lightly trim the whole yard with a single charge! The grass I trimmed was only a few inches high but the trimmer was more powerful than I expected.
Thank God, it still in good shape.
Thanks for the video, I have a 2014 STX 3.7 95.000 miles, love it.👏
I have had my 2011 F150 XL 2 Wheel Dr. 3.7 V6 since 2019 I bought it with 219,000 miles I have 280,000 miles on it now it’s a long bed it used to be a Terminex truck. In certain lighting conditions. You can still see the letters. I had been taking it to an oil change place but this is the first time changing the oil myself this truck has always gotten 5W-30 conventional oil, but I’m having trouble finding conventional so I am going to 10W-30 synthetic because I was told that going to the same weight in the synthetic it’s going to be thinner, so I figure going up to 10 W 30 would be a little thicker. I was a little bit worried about going to synthetic. Hopefully it doesn’t hurt anything. I really enjoy driving my truck. It’s a pretty base unit. No cruise control. No power windows or power locks but it did have an aftermarket stereo put in by the previous owner, so that is cool. I noticed that this video is 10 years old but it’s helping me now and that’s what matters. I understand the transmission issues as well. Mine feels like in certain conditions that it shifts down a gear when you’re going faster and it’s banged between gears too. There is a open recall on that or supposedly they re-flash the computer but I believe I’m past the recall time I think, I think you have 10 years from the date of manufacture to get it fixed and I’m past that obviously. Thank you for your instructional video. I think I may just have to subscribe.
Dude you didn't do anything, just talk.
I have a 2004 1100 shadow Sabre. Does the 04 require removal of factory grille?
I wouldn't take that thing if they gave me $300

😅old I just bought 1
Wow, I just bought an 86' with 73,000 miles and it looks brand new compared to this thing. Even been 10 years since this video was posted. I feel Even better now
I am so happy I bought this trimmer. This is probably the best/easiest trimmer to refill. Are there any other trimmers out there that reload like this as well?
Thank you so much ! I finally found a model like mine and you just made my life easier ,thanks again !
I have that gear shift clunk too. I tend to manually remove 6th gear when I'm on the highway to avoid confusing the transmission. 197,000 on my 2011. If I were to add a bottle of the Lucas oil treatment should I skip that 6th quart?
That is the noisiest most annoying CZcams video that I have ever watched
Yep, like Clint said…..A man’s gotta know his limitations
I thought blue was 2002. I had and loved a silver 2003. What an awesome and exciting street bike! Bonus points for being big and comfort enough for bigger folks.
If this was posted ten years ago mine is about the,same think im doing well thanks neighbors to the north.
Thanks for the review... you had it set to 755 before testing, I think you intended to enter 850 for your truck battery. I'm wondering if the results will improve or be worse.
I thought you were going to talk about your Ford not your quad
Thanks for watching.
Its crap. The motor blew up after 3 years of use. Only 45psi of compression.
I don't know what to tell you... I've used mostly poor quality mixing oil, and typically bit fresh gasoline... My sim has been to not treat it nicely ... And I've had nothing but good results from this machine. I used it for typically 2 hrs at a time as we have a larger property... Taller grass as well... And through all the abuse and neglect I've thrown at it for years.. it always starts up with ease.. for the price... It has performed extremely well... I expected to maybe get a season out if it ... But as you can see from the date of video posting... It's been going for a while. :) Thanks for watching.
Well max 3 years is good enough for me .what do you expect to use it for the rest of your life weedeating when your 99 years old in your POWER SCOOTER
good video short and to the point i would have liked to see the passenger valve cover removed.
Wow, your life sucks
I have a 2012 F150 with this same engine and 90,000 miles. Your truck is nicer than mine, I have the XL version with an 8ft bed. I have hand crank windows, rubber floor instead of carpet, and a very basic stereo. I was also pleasantly surprised how powerful the "little" V6 was. I picked mine up used late last year for dirt cheap, because everyone wanted a crew cab and this truck has a single cab. I wasn't a Ford fan but this truck has me reconsidering.
Any trimmer with the pull start on the front of the engine I stay away from they’re half crankshaft engines.
Very good car i ma French i have a Rambler AMC american in Tehran 1968 -69 the golden years his name in Iran " ARYA"with air conditionné .
Transmission shifting bangs into second gear low speed
I have on so my only question is is how to you stop it.
Next to the spark plug, under that rubberized cover, there is a small metal tab you push up against the spark plug to ground it out and stop it from sparking.
@@NowellHolmes ya that's what I was feeling.its not like a normal snowblower
