I love your tenacity and never say die attitude. Most backyard mechanics would have given up when you found the air leak with the carb. Not you. Congrats on your new acquisition.
Thank you very much Raymond!!
I don't know what I like best about your videos; Your presentation, mechanical ability, editing or the pup! Probably all of them!
Wow, thank you!
Just FYI the coolant that goes through carburetors or through manifold is actually designed to heat them not cool them. The evaporation of fuel creates a significant cooling effect and sometimes coolant is run through to prevent condensation and even potentially ice from forming
yes sir you are absolutely correct👍👍
I believe you will find that coolant line going to that carb is not to keep it cool, it is actually there to warm the carb for better fuel vaporization during cool weather. I use Simple Green HD in my ultrasonic cleaner. Never had a problem with discoloration of any carbs. The zinc content is what causes the discoloration. The FD620 is a great engine. I have two of them. One in my 425 Deere, and the other I put on my Grasshopper. I rebuilt the one in my 425 after I got it. The engine was so worn that I had to have it bored oversize, replace the crank, and even change the carb body out because the throttle shaft was worn so bad. You could push the pistons side to side nearly 1/32”. But the engine still ran fine, was just pushing oil out past the crank seals due to excessive blowby. Tough little motors!
yes you are comepletey correct about the coolant line! I actually have 4 things rite now with fd620 engines I have this and a 425,445 and a jd gator, I like these engines they are simple to work on and reliable!
Looks like you could mount a 50 cal on the crane. Welcome back.
hahaha don’t give me any ideas lol
The tune at the end is reminiscent of 38 Specials "Hold on Loosely."
Cool
I also owned a Steiner it was the 3 wheel, steer in the rear 60in deck with a roller attached. I mowed acres that started out terrible bumps ended beautiful and smooth, I LOVED it cried 😢😢when I sold it due to a life changing illness.
That’s awesome! But sorry you had to sell it😢
Cutest thing ever you and the dog cruising
😌❤️
You made me laugh when you mentioned Diesel Creek’s new crane, his one would scare the deer away. That’s an awesome side by side setup you’ve got there and runs mint now 👍
lol I know rite😂 thanks for watching brother
Nice Video. Seeing this vehicle with the US flag on it and a guy writing in the comments ,,you could mount a 50 cal on it'' i knew i was in the american part of CZcams again😂
Grettings from Austria🤙
Right on my guy!!
THANKS for sharing another GREAT VIDEO 🤙🏼 it’s always nice to watch you do your thing, no fluff straight to the point and thorough💪🏽. You take us along as if we’re there watching you at your shop and also great seeing lil buddy and the other dog. THANKS AGAIN 😎🤙🏼 ALOHA FROM HAWAII 💪🏽
Been using zep heavy duty citrus degreaser in ultrasonics for years and it does not change the color of the carbs and does a great job.
I think I have some of that, I’ll give it a try
Great work, and doggo is adorable!
Thank you very much!
Love Kawasaki engines! My first John Deere had one I did all the maintenance till I sold it after 20yrs still running fantastic! You do awesome work, I would love to own this very cool ❤
That’s awesome!!
I wasn't sure if it was mentioned or not , but the Kawasaki engine also powered the cub cadet tractor aswell.
Yes sir! And also a bunch of other things, I actually now have 4 machines with this engine in it lol
What a cool little rig! The fella that owned it before you wasn't going to let anything stop them from getting out and enjoying life. It's going to make a great work vehicle for your property.
You got that rite
MM77 Approved 👍🏼👍🏼………………………………………………………………………………….Good to see you post a video! ……………………..dare I say it………………………..something else you can fix! LOL 😂 That is a cool hunting rig!
Thank you buddy!! I swear when I heard that mouse noise I thought I was grinding one up in the belt lol I’m glad that wasn’t the case though😂
The difference between diesel creeks crane and ur machine is that i watch and liked and give a sub, non of that all i did with diesel creek vid 🙃
Nice job u did here, stay humble and honest with what u do. L🖤ve ur vids and skill👌👍✌️
Thank you very much! That really means alot to me!
Glad you’re back! Really great video once again.
Thank you William 🙂
What a nice Kawasaki Mule 👍🏻, thanks for another great video. Regarts from Holland 🇳🇱.
Thank you very much!
Great work Darrell. Love those lights. Nice "will it run" vid and that thing is versatile. Probable make a good log skidder as well. Love that dog. Happy Thanksgiving and Merry Christmas to you and your family.
Thanks 👍 I really appreciate that!!
What I enjoy is your finding unusual items and then make them work. Fascinating.
Thanks B Anderson
I appreciate that!
What a awesome utility rig. Great job on the repairs and bringing us a great video. I’ll be working on some of the fun projects here over the winter here also. Look forward to the next upload 😎🇺🇸
thank you man!! I will be looking foreward to your videos!!
Great video. It's always a pleasure watching. Thank you
Glad you enjoyed it
Another job well done my friend!!! I hope you and your family are all in good health!!! Your pup was funny when you asked if he wanted to go for a ride! Thanks for sharing with us, and good luck with the new machine!!!
thank you!!he loves going for rides!!🤗
Another sweet machine to add to the fleet, great job as always man!
Thank you so much for checking it out brother!! Hope all is well with you!!
Love your videos👍. Excellent content, editing and presentation! Looking forward to next one.
thanks that really means a lot!
That thing is pretty awesome. Good job on the tune up.
Thanks 👍
That was a great rehab rebuild that piece of equipment deserves that kind love great job 👍
thank you
Good job! I could've used that rig and made getting a deer out of the woods a whole lot easier! You'll really appreciate having it the first time you use it! Thanks brother
Thanks 👍 I actually just used it the day after posting this video to haul a 230lb 10 point out the woods!!😮 it made it a breeze
Wow! That's a huge one! That's field dressed? Nice
Nice rig Darrell, have not seen you post for awhile glad to see a video. Good job buddy!
thanks! I was having computer issues so hopefully now I can get videos out sooner😊
Congrats on finally gotten ur 4x4 mule running and driving good. ask if ur dog wanted go for a ride..
He loves going for a cruise 😊🙂🙂
Awesome job. I can just picture some old boy who's got a life time of building things piecing that thing together. I'm sure he was a hard working man who wore out his body and needed the crane and winches to help him still be ble to enjoy the things he wanted to do. Great to bring it back into working order.
This is exactly how the guy was
I really love that machine it’s Great good job on getting it going.
thanks
your videos are getting better and better .. good
Glad you like them!
Happy Thanksgiving. Love your channel
Same to you! thanks!
Bad ass find... great job!
thanks brother!!
This guy never ceases to amaze me
thank you brother!
That coolant hose to carburetor is actually for the choke operation. Great channel!
Yes! Thank you!
Great problem solving skills. You have a lot of talent. Great job!! Thanks for sharing.
Thanks!
That squeak would have finished me 😂😂. Glad you sorted it buddy. Hope all is well 😊
Thank you very much dave!! I’ve never heard a air leak sound like that, at first I swore I was grinding up a mouse in the belt😂
@@TheHomePros6221 😂😂😂
Nice result.👍
Thanks 👍
Another great video, awesome, thank you for sharing, have a nice week end 👍👍👍👍
Thank you! You too!
When you asked your dog if he liked this new rig, your dog was like “Thank God I’m not a deer!”
Haha😂
Cool machine!!
thanks brother!
Another excellent rescue! Again, really like your methodical and well thought out approach to things. Interested in the light, don't see a link...
Thank you so much! I posted the link now
fuel cell cleaning? good job bringing her back to life
It has a plastic tank that was clean fortunently
Another great job, not surprised…
Thanks again!
Like a giant jigsaw puzzle. Another treasure saved from the land of the dead. That is a neat vehicle that seems very useful and also has the added bonus of being less likely to kill you than the last find. I always look forward to your fun videos. Enjoy the new toy!
hahah thank you my friend
Great Video. Comparing you videos to diesel creek isn't a fair comparison. Matt is located in the heart of what at one time the steel and manufacturing capitol of the United States. The opportunities that afforded him is great. Think about having US Steel headquarters a few miles away. Most importantly, you're two different people. You have a different presentation style than him. I can relax and watch you videos. Keep up the good work!
Thank you very much jason that means a lot to me, I was really just kinda making a joke about my crane vs his crane but I really appreciate your comment ❤️, however you never know I mite find myself a big ol link belt crane one of these days as well 😁
While it can certainly be used for hunting, I believe it's actually for loading a wheel chair on that bent rack on the back
I talked to the guy and he built it all so he could hunt, and lift up the deer to field dress and process the deer, he also used the back rack to carry the deer on
@@TheHomePros6221 that's great, my uncle has one that a dealership made him for his wheelchair, he does hunt with it but he bought it for camping
Fine Job
Thanks👍
good job young fella
thank you
Nice one, video and vehicle ;) 👍
Thank you! 👍
Little buddy loves it
He sure does😊
Salut à toi. Ne prends pas, comparaison, avec Matt de Diesel Creek. J'aime sa chaine, mais sincèrement, je préfère ce que tu nous montres. J'aime voir, une de ces machines, laissées pour compte, reprendre vie, avec toi. C'est toujours mené de façon impeccable. C'est de la mécanique, ce que j'aime. On change ce qui doit être changé, mais on répare ce qui peut être réparé. Et tout çà, en véritable professionnel.
Anither fantastic will it run video.you bring that mtv back to life again. Now all you need is get yoursellf a nice hunting gears and hit the road with that custom build huntting vehicle. Good luck and keep up the good work. 39:38
thank you very much😊
Dang if i lived near you I would gladly pay you to fix up my 2003 Mule 3010. Its the exact same as you just fixed without the 2nd row seating
We’re u at?
That thing is So cool! It would be handy around the farm to move hay bales or engines! Great vid instant Sub!
thank you so much my friend!!
@@TheHomePros6221 No problem!
@the home pro will you be doing another video on the Steiner??
Yes I will
Sir I would love to see you working more of your skidsteer and excavated please loved the channel God bless you and family
I have some videos of the skid steer and excavator coming later. I got some other videos to finish up first though.
Your passenger rear taillights out.those mushrooms are prized edible honeys or possible oysters,also prized edible can tell them by cojoined stems branching off one another.true thing running about in woods tires must run over spores and then propagate new growth were atv sits because i had soft open dirt at home were i parked.one week after sitting i found a huge morel mushroom super prized edible.dam right i cooked n ate.not only that but i live in suburbia far from woods that was crazy.better get some doors on there ur dog was gonna jump a few times it looked to cute dont wanna see hurt.anyhow nice save,have fun.snooky pa😊😊😊😊😊😊
I would think that skinning pole might be a problem, if off road, with catching limbs with it pointed forward.
It really doesn’t like you would think, I actually just used it two days ago to haul a 230lb 10 point out of the woods!!🙂
Another great rescue! Hope everything goes well. If any parts you need for, plz let us know
Thank you! Will do! I’ve been meaning to get back to you
good job more video s please
I have a bunch on the way😊
Great video man, hope you and your family have a happy Thanksgiving bud.
Thanks! You too!
Another jewl man, Great video.
Thanks ants I’m kinda disappointed with it I prob should have never even made it, it’s doing horrible in the analytics
A good video.
Thanks!
Kawasaki should offer those mods as factory options. They're well thought out, especially the crane.
Also, there's something wrong with the audio channel, possibly the mic or low battery. There's a lot of IM distortion on high frequencies and impulse sounds. Very annoying/disconcerting. Consider using a professional on-body wireless mic.
Haha that would be awesome 😁! I’ve been thinking of getting a wireless mic but I don’t know which one to get
1 day build? Running very well there. Someone gave me a 16hp lawn tractor I need to fix. Probably just carb and a new belt.
Haha I wish more like 1 month lol but I work on stuff on and off, I was just thinking about you the other day and I hope you are doing well and your mother also. What kind of lawn tractor is it? I sure miss seeing your videos…You should start a new channel… shadtree garden tractors 😊
@thehomepros6221 Well I bought a 28 ft camper to work on, I bought a pressure washer that wont start and got that mtd tractor to work on. So I have a few projects to work on. I still have the kawasaki jet ski to repair and a yamaha 760 that I think the owner abandoned here. Mom will be going on hospice soon as she isnt doing well.
Cool rig! Are you a hunter?
With a bit of strengthening make a great small engine crane 😊
So far I’ve easily lifted 300lbs with it fully extended and I’m sure it will do more
I can totally envision the handicapped kill cart rolling through the woods and scaring away every deer in a 5 mile radius.
Hahah
Don’t use Purple Power on anything containing rubber, plastic etc if it is going to set on it for very long at all.
thanks👍
Be careful with that front bumper. I have a kawasaki mule and I am always bending the front bumper out. Because the mounts are weak
Thanks for the tip! This one was reinforced by the previous owner
👍
🙂🙂
Where did you find that? Isla Nublar?
hahah what is isla nublar? lol
@@TheHomePros6221 the island from Jurassic Park. Have a great week!
@@NilsKallhahahaha oh yea!!
Awesome machine and great job bro👍😉 fortunately you used a piece of wood instead a 🦌, CZcams doesn't like bloody things 😂
yea I know I actually took that short down after seeing your comment and one other, but it was getting a ton of views and likes but I’m gonna just try and keep the channel clean
@@TheHomePros6221 in my opinion it is not worth getting the channel blocked, but if you want to try it, see for yourself😁
Esta ala venta
Sure
👍😊
That rack in the rear is trouble.
Personally; I prefer Simply Green myself.
Me 2
need link and coupon for light
it’s in the description my friend 🙂
I would remove that low back rack and do some mods to raise it
I actually raised it after I published this vid
Anything with lye is going to react poorly with aluminum. Purple power degreaser is not good for aluminum parts, nor really is normal simple green. Simple green makes a special "aircraft" formulation.
that’s great to know! thank you👍🙂
😊😊😊😊😊
😊😊😊😊☺️☺️☺️
Those mushrooms are eatable. Scramble them with eggs!
Hahah I’ll pass🤮
Mushroom?? Looks like honey fungus. Not a good one..
I heard you can eat these?
What do you mean not a good one many poeple prize eating the honeys and oyster mushrooms,i believe you may be wrong on that assumtion.check ur books-safe n edible
Now if that was a brite orange or sulfur colored mushroom,then it is not edible because its whats known as jackolantern mushroom they also conjoin at base and are toxic enough to make u sick,not sure about death,but youll be sick enough you feel like dying.
👍🏻💪🏻🦅🇺🇸🗽👌🏻
😊
I cringed when you wire brushed the carb sealing surfaces. That might be your air leak.
I do that all the time and never had a issue, there was a bunch of hardened gunk so the wire wheel left a nice smooth surface, it was 100% the crappy gasket the gas made it break down I could literally rub the gasket with my fingers and layers of it would come off, cheap Chinese crap
You're name is Darrell? Do you watch Darren?
yep who’s darren?
@@TheHomePros6221 Musti1. Your channels are alike. And almost have the same names. Lol
@@TheHomePros6221 Mustie1 channel. He posts every Sunday morning 7am
You will have to buy a lot more crap to even br in Diesale Creak's leage
Matt is my brother
He still collects a lot of rubbish "1 mans rubbish is another mans gold"@@TheHomePros6221
To many adds.
sorry about that 😩
Wicked fix.👍👏👍
Right on brother!
