Getting too old sounds familiar with me. I really appreciate watching you, as a craftsman that has perfected the profession. Thanks for taking us along.
Kent moore tools are pretty much exclusive to General Motors and the Detroit Diesel division of general motors. That counter bore set is for either the series 50 or series 60 engines. In the later years after the spx merger they started making tools for other manufacturers. A few years ago I purchased every single kent moore and dealer specific tool that a Chevy dealer had when they went out of business. That dealer happened to service medium duty and gm buses back in the day so I ended up with all of the 2 stroke Detroit diesel tools along with tools for the cat 3208 and cat 3116 since it was used in gm medium duty.
Hope all is well Warren, your an awsome mechanic and take the time to share your work day with us . Sure do appreciate it ! Take care Warren and family
A soft start is ideal for an AC motor that runs at full speed all the time. A Freq drive (VFD/AFD) are for both soft starting and controlling the speed of an AC motor to control for pressure, flow, etc. Freq drives can also spin a motor faster than 60 hertz as well. Like anything else they can be basic or wild depending on application.
You know when I tell people what you just said they look at me like I'm crazy. I worked in a sugar mill and we had dozens of vfd's most of the time it was to speed up or control flow of pumps.
@@kennethhoover6195 VFD don't work on DC, there's no frequency on DC. You have to control the voltage to control the speed of DC motors, and that requires feedback to know what the motor is turning, because DC motors will speed up with less load and slow down with more load.
@@kennethhoover6195 changes the frequency. If nameplate says 1750 rpm at 60 Hz, the speed will be proportional when you speed up to 100, 120 Hz and slow when you go to 40 Hz. We've got a motor with 72:1 reduction to 15/60 chain drive to get final shaft rpm to roughly 1/10th motor rpm. We run the arm at 4 rpm and motor at 40 Hz.
I've complained about our country not being self sufficient for 50 years, now we're learning why. These other countries could starve us to death, not only farm goods but every piece of equipment that needs electronics.
stockholder and CEO wages are more important than you or me or this country. Sure, companies have to make money but the story is told by full earnings reports with board of directors and CEO wages and bonuses.
Truth. These top end executives placed obscene profits over long term reliability. Well, the rooster has come back. Look what you guys have done to your companies. No excuses, you suck.
just learned this last year i've told everyone i know verbally,now i'm saying it on this channel cause most of you guys are techs and mechanics on all sorts of stuff,not only the parts are crap,i just learned that they are making and rebuilding all of the transformers and generators that fire most of our plants and sub stations,in other words china has us by the balls on our electricity grid,check it,i did,its scary damn scary,we have no backup,all i can say is buy generators for powering your shops and homes just in case,i hate even talking about it,now how in the hell can you backup gasoline that rots in 6 months
The last remanufactured starter my buddy bought quit within a few months. I opened it up to see what went wrong and low and behold none of the magnets were attached to the housing. They all were spun around and stuck together. Thankfully we still had the old starter. I replaced the brushes in the old one and he hasn’t had any problem since. Utter crap this reman stuff is.
I know a manager at Renault/Nissan. He works at their Paris (nearby) headquarters. I asked one day about vehicle recalls and failure rates - it was around the time the Leaf was coming in and batteries were (and still are) junk. That manager explained that the company is very aware of failure rates from parts. The company accepted a 4% expected failure on any new vehicle and they had internal types of insurance cover that would pay for recalls, parts and staff time at dealerships on repairs covered by the company. I've a feeling that vehicle manufacturers are raising those expected failure rates. As others have said, they really don't give a toss as long as they sell machines.
I enjoy your videos very much Warren. This country needs more men like you. Keep on keeping on! By the way I’d love to see a video about your story of how you got into working on heavy equipment. That would be a great video!
We had a big meeting about 5 years ago and basically said, we are never fitting reman to jobs we do because the liability is too high, one of the best decision we ever made imo.
Hello Warren and Crew. Glad to see everything is back to normal... Oscar is to tired to do some pants leg sport action and Lulu is checking out what your doing. Cool on the tools, thank you for sharing. Take Care!
A mechanic in my area had one of these type of water pumps bearing fail( I think it was OEM) . It took out the timing gears and bent the crankshaft. It had ball bearing shaped divots in the crank gear teeth. Incredible damage. A used engine was installed.I immediately checked the type of water pump on the JD tractor at the farm I worked at. Different pump or Id have immediately recommended a new water pump . It wasnt obvious the crank was bent but the mechanic knew it was possible with the kind of pressure that occured. A dial indicator revealed the worse news on top of the bad. At least it wasn't a case of low to no hours failure.
Based on your reman advice I decided against reman alternator. Mine gave out in my toyota diesel car. A new Toyota alternator was 800 quid, a reman was 400. Got the auto electrician to rebuild the original which he also approved as being the best option.
People are just lazy now. A lot of components on a vehicle/machinery can be rebuilt, as they have in the past, but now a lot of people just wanna swap parts and not actually fix them.
@@landlifem5872 goes for everything thing really, obsolescence was a strategy introduced in the great depression to stimulate the economy. It's working well! Similarly, people used to grow their own vegetables and stuff, but why when it's less than a dollar per packet down at the store.
Yeah, trying to save a dollar on reman parts that run off the motor gears or can contaminate internal motor, tranny, or rearend isn't a good idea at all and this is a perfect example. Other reman stuff to stay away from would be fuel injector pumps and hydraulic oil pumps. Case dealer put a reman steering pump in a mxm190 I bought from them. 50 hours later pump died and shed fine metal flakes into transmission. 2 transmission oil/filter changes, still showing metal flakes in oil, and 1000 hours later the transmission started crapping. out. Just say NOOO to remans
The older Kent Moore tools were very high quality tools. Knew several people that worked at KM before they closed their factory in Jackson Michigan and outsourced a lot of their manufacturing overseas. Most everyone I knew took pride in working there, but like most skilled trade people in manufacturing there got screwed over when they closed.
hey man, i am 77yo Retired at 65 and went on the pension, now with kids and grandkids,i do not have time to go to work, seem to be buying new tools all the time, mate, from Queensland Australia, just keep smiling and look happy ,, cheers.
I rolled my toolbox into my brother's garage and left it with him. I haven't seen it for several years, and I'm happy as can be. Keep working, it does pay good but I'm not interested anymore. I hope you get a few days off, now and then. Good luck.
My wife's uncle passed away about 6 months ago. He had an international 784 tractor for the farm chore machine. His wife asked me if I would come check it out as they had hired a handyman and he was mowing with it and said it run hot so he shut it off. Well the poor thing had been rode hard and put away wet for many years. Wound up changing all the fluids and filters and the water pump was toast and needed changing so I asked myself what would Warren do? After watching him all this while I started with the sheet metal then the fan shroud then the fan then the pump itself. Make a long story short I got it done and just reversed everything I did to put the new one back on. It runs good now. Thanks Warren for being an inspiration. I know it was just a water pump but if you have never changed one out before you know what I mean....
this guy is great...he's a photographer and a vlogger and a philosopher and a mechanic and a keen observer of human nature and he seems to be able to juggle 6 balls in the air at the same time.......fixing heavy equipment outside in the dirt and weather all the time probably gets to be tiring....but his is a skill in high demand because these heavy vehicles are always breaking down, and desperate men will pay a fortune to keep their extremely costly mechanical investments working..................i should have been a diesel mechanic but i was never able to focus and work that hard
36:32: Kent-Moore! My first job (we are talking 1984) was in Kent-Moore Spain. After military duty I had the chance to keep working with computers in the European headquarters in Switzerland. The company was then bought by Sealed Power (SPX) and now I think it is part of the German consortium Bosch.
Awesome find on the counter bore cutter. Especially the older ones. Pretty soon, you'll be the only one who can work on them, on top of all the new stuff.
I was born in Klamath Falls Oregon and moved to Kodiak Alaska such a beautiful place the picture you see on my profile is me at my cabin enjoying life I bought rental property and prospered after my dad shot himself in Klamath Falls I moved to be with my mom and Kodiak Alaska still on vacation dammit it’s all good things are better than they ever have been for me thanks for your videos they have been the best The only problem is is you Gotta have a service boat not a service truck LOL best wishes to you
They're going to have to start warranting the shit out of everything a reman part touches if they expect to sell that crap to people. Either that or get some kind of quality control in place.
Serious question... If farmers aren't getting rich then why do they always have newer equipment? Along with that that always have some of the newer pickups and other vehicles. I would love to have a business that is backed by insurance and or the US Government!
O.L.F Farmer uses one of these, only his is an 8120. He had to do a major in frame rebuild on his channel when one of the cylinder sleeves developed a vertical crack almost it's full length.
I loved this video Warren. Thanks so much for editing and uploading. Some hard wrenching on this one. Poor guy has a bill to pay. At least it will last when you do the work.
NEVER buy a remanufactured part unless you have no other choice and have a desperate need for the machine to get back to work. And in that case buy TWO.
@18:84 If I were to enter farming today I would not do so without irrigation. Stakes are too high to risk a drought even east of the Mississippi River. This said: I read a comment where they did not let people irrigate their lands with the aquafire; so I guess one just can't win as a farmer.
Reman engines are best purchased from reputable engine suppliers . Jasper ain’t one of ‘em . Because they love to re-use parts even though they have already lived their service life . I bought my long block from “Power Train Companies” best price , They deliver and pick up at no additional cost and I was able to purchase their installation kit ( New water pump , Serpentine belt , plug wires , plugs , Air filter , Oil filter , Upper and Lower radiator hoses and Gasket set ) plus upgraded the warranty to Gold and still paid far less than I would have for a Jasper reman . Words to the wise . Shop around and do your research . Well worth the time .
Was wondering you opinion I recently purchased a nh bb 9060 3 by 3 big square baler looking for a tractor that would run that and some tillage on 100 acres pr year was thinking of a caseih 7240-8940 new Holland 8970 or a Jd 8400 what would be the most reliable for the future based on your knowledge of working on tractors I’m just starting out on my own don’t want Def nor do I need a screen in the cab any suggestions would be appreciated i enjoy watching you videos thanks for taking time out of your busy schedule to post them
My vote would be for the 8400. We have several 8000series over 20000hrs that have had very little done to them. Mainly just fix the 4wd seals from leaking every 5000hrs.
90% of parts now are Reman. It’s kind of a pleasant surprise when parts come and they are brand spanking new…at least in my case. I live in the northeast US.
I work and one of the best marine repower boat yards in New England specializing in commercial fishing boat repowers. Stuff like c18s Scanias, 1000 man engine and a ton of smaller 450hp Cummins I repowered a lobster boat with a reman c12 it didn't last a week before the engine gave up, reman parts and engine are junk they aren't worth the packaging there shipped in
Cutting Corners with The iron that you count on for your Bread and butter doesnt make sence.. I've wrenched on equipment that has been done by operator error.. And now I'm sure hes not going to buy anymore garbage for his equipment..
Yeah I can't really feel sorry for the guy with the tractor as I posted in my comment when he's going to skimp on $200 when driving a six-figure piece of equipment. I laugh off $200 on my relic semi tractor. But I'll be damned that it's going to be down because I won't buy an extra $200 part over crap. The only defense I'll allow this guy to speak is that he bought it from a dealership which should come with some quality or warranty.
That is a hell of a tool haul there Warren, Congrats. My idea of reman........Reman the damn thing your self. Then it's brand new and done damn right!!!!!
Hi Warren is a Cummins generator from 1968 with 1200 hours model NT-335-GS worth anything. Spent its entire life in climate controlled building. Engine worth anything?
same thing in the marine industry... tell your customer that a little gizmo that's from the the dealer costs 900 dollars and when they're finished bitching, they go someplace else but they're delighted when you tell them the made in mexico knock-off is 12 dollars. Of course it comes back next week with a totally pissed off irrational karen attached to it.
Good tools forget the Chinese junk tools . The first time you use it it is the size it says or it spreads or breaks. Japan Tiawan KOREAMAKE.GOOD STUFF. I LIKE EUROTECH TOOLS. BAHCO WHICH IS SWEDISH MADE BUT STANLEY OWNED IS GOOD TOO..
What is with this reman stuff of JD is it just repaired to a price or whats the go. It is always better to do the job.right first for.amy.number of reasons least of all I never liked working o a hot tractor on a hot.day or outside on tractor focusing things on.a old day.
Junk in the box. Run into it on a regular basis. Pisses me off when I ID the issue and replace a failed part and it still doesn't work because the new part is failed before it came out of the box.
Hey Warren hope all is well. Not sure if you noticed or not, but in your last video on the broken leaf spring, the rubber plug was missing from the passenger side on the bump stop post. It was easy to miss if you weren't looking for it directly. I only noticed it because I was looking at the height difference between the two when you were comparing side to side alignment. If that driver hits a hard bump it's gonna be a hard metal to metal bang coming from the passenger side. Just trying to help out bud.
I bought a Reman injection pump from Deere. It came apart in 1 hour and wrecked the gear train on the front of the motor. No help from dealer or Deere. That's the new way of customer service/appreciation. When my Powerstroke needed a waterpump, I bought a new one from Ford. After 20 years, I figured that was the only way to NOT have to change a lifetime warranty one yearly, let alone any other damage it might cause. Yup, it cost $300 over $85, but so far, no issues after 5 years.
Does deere offer new and reman parts? Any time I have bought parts all I'm offered is new there. Didn't think it was like o'Reilly's. I realize engines are different.
Deere offers new and reman water pumps. I thought I would save 200 bucks and went with the reman, a mistake I will not make twice😉. Saving 200 bucks just cost me 3000+
I’m with you Warren. When it comes to reman. I wouldn’t use reman in anywhere it’s to hard to get to or where it may cost a lot of money to repair. Love watching your CZcams videos. The hell with anyone’s negativity about you. I would like too say how I really feel about people dogging you. But profanity is illegal on CZcams.
Are quite a few repairs are small stuff broken wire , wire connection sensors thing of that nature ? Then the small things that lead to big things such as this watet pump the cam gear which leads to the crank gear which leads to on and on just thinking ? Enjoy ur movies interesting to see how J D 55 series holding up they were just coming out when I got out of farm ranching we had a 2955 threw 4955 interesting to see where the failed first thank you
The tools are Very cool.the easy part is buying the tools.the hard part is next with finding the set a home in your shop.are you going to video using the tool set? I would love to see how it is used.
All these companies make cheap crap that won't last. One would expect Deere to be the best but they are not anymore. My Uncle was an engineer for John Deere in the 1960s. Worked with 20 series. Those engineers were very proud of their 4020. He told my Dad, Just keep the oil changed, They will last forever! He was right!
Here's a perfect example of the phenomenon known as "False Economy" that people fall into. Thinking to save money, they purchase a much cheaper cost product- that in turn usually ends up costing substantially more- than the regularly "high priced" item, because of the inferiority of workmanship and/or materials when it prematurely fails. Hey, Warren- what's this $300 water pump going to cost now, when you're done, parts & labor? Twice? Three times? Customers do this all the time with vehicle maintenance, too. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/False_economy
the problem is when companies out source their replacement parts to other companies and the put their name on it and it is the same junk that's out there for sale for half the price
You are one of the hardest working dudes I have ever seen you are a bust ass mechanic and you do people right you make some of the best content in my opinion if you weren't always so damn busy I would really enjoy stopping by your shop and meeting you and shoot the shit for a while but nothing to worry about I ain't going to come by and bug ya you have a mountain of shit on your plate judging from what I have watched BTW you caught some nice fish on your vacation you deserved to do a little fishin you sure as hell earned it
The only thing I found true about made in America are those cute little labels that say made in America and it's the gospel truth the label itself is made in America God knows where the junk was made that it stuck on I think that's the reason why they paint the junk green and call it John Deere
thank you for your service in the navy. did the sub have ever part in a room that you would need be a good vid to stop and sit down and tells use what it was like working of a sub thank you
My uncle had a massive dairy operation about 90 miles north of Las Vegas neVada. He was a master mechanic diesel, gas, electric, hydraulic. He would by a fleet of auction hay trucks in Sacramento and drive them back to Bunkerville Nevada. He had an endless supply of spare parts. He was a master welder. His operation was all computers, he played the Chicago options board. He was one of the most gentle , kind men I have ever met. He died about ten years ago as a very rich man. He and my aunt never took time off in 45 years running the dairy operation.
As a mechanic in the auto world, it's hard getting good parts anywhere lately. Seems like dorman is making factory parts now too. Nothing but junk
Getting too old sounds familiar with me. I really appreciate watching you, as a craftsman that has perfected the profession. Thanks for taking us along.

Nice score on the Kent Moore tools! You will get good service from that set.
You should keep a old porch umbrella on your truck. Makes a big difference having some shade to work under
Only 80 degrees, but earlier this year it would have been nice.
Glad to here all these companys are working hard to keep you in business!! Take care Warren.
Hello Warren. You would think one of those Machanical water pumps would last a lifetime. My MF 390T has never had a new water pump from 1998.
Thank you for the video Warren.👍
Great score on the tools!!! Not sure how comments got shut off on latest video but it was a good one too!
36:32: Kent-Moore! My first job (we are talking 1984) was in Kent-Moore Spain. After military duty I had the chance to keep working with computers in the European headquarters in Switzerland.

That little bit of sloop in that water pump, just needs some grease.... lol
I worked at Horton. The company that designed, tested, and manufactured that fan. Probably a 413369. It was a good company at one time.
I get your deer tent stuff man I think about things like that all the time. I live in a small country but not many people so plenty of wild space.
Challenger and Massey tractors built in Jackson, MN have a zerk to grease the water pump bearing. Probably a good idea.
Good to see ya back in action Warren. Vacations always speed by too damn fast. Cool tools.
Awesome find on the counter bore cutter. Especially the older ones. Pretty soon, you'll be the only one who can work on them, on top of all the new stuff.
I have used these cutters a lot in my time good luck with these tools
Thanks for shering warren 👍.

O.L.F Farmer uses one of these, only his is an 8120. He had to do a major in frame rebuild on his channel when one of the cylinder sleeves developed a vertical crack almost it's full length.
Those 8100 tractors were a pretty good machine !
I loved this video Warren. Thanks so much for editing and uploading. Some hard wrenching on this one. Poor guy has a bill to pay. At least it will last when you do the work.
Warren,
Get your engraver out and mark what all those tool parts are to work together, so when you need them It will be done and will not rub off.
NEVER buy a remanufactured part unless you have no other choice and have a desperate need for the machine to get back to work. And in that case buy TWO.

If I were to enter farming today I would not do so without irrigation. Stakes are too high to risk a drought even east of the Mississippi River.
This said: I read a comment where they did not let people irrigate their lands with the aquafire; so I guess one just can't win as a farmer.
had a 2000 chevy suburban it had both sae and metric it was a pain to work on having half your tool box layed out
Have a Ford with the international diesel, Same thing. Metric and Sae. on the same brackets for alt, air conditioner etc.
they cant even reman .........a water pump, one of the simplest mechanical items on an engine. No hope is there.
Great video Warren ,thanks for sharing . Take care
Reman engines are best purchased from reputable engine suppliers .
Jasper ain’t one of ‘em . Because they love to re-use parts even though they have already lived their service life .
I bought my long block from “Power Train Companies” best price , They deliver and pick up at no additional cost and I was able to purchase their installation kit ( New water pump , Serpentine belt , plug wires , plugs , Air filter , Oil filter , Upper and Lower radiator hoses and Gasket set ) plus upgraded the warranty to Gold and still paid far less than I would have for a Jasper reman .
Words to the wise . Shop around and do your research . Well worth the time .
Well them tools are a hell of a score! Gdam boy.
Was wondering you opinion I recently purchased a nh bb 9060 3 by 3 big square baler looking for a tractor that would run that and some tillage on 100 acres pr year was thinking of a caseih 7240-8940 new Holland 8970 or a Jd 8400 what would be the most reliable for the future based on your knowledge of working on tractors I’m just starting out on my own don’t want Def nor do I need a screen in the cab any suggestions would be appreciated i enjoy watching you videos thanks for taking time out of your busy schedule to post them
Those 8970 are pretty tough tractors. Of course I don't think you would get hurt on anyone of those three in that era.
@@westerntruckandtractorrepa1353 thanks guess I’ll see what’s out there
My vote would be for the 8400. We have several 8000series over 20000hrs that have had very little done to them. Mainly just fix the 4wd seals from leaking every 5000hrs.
@@bcbloc02 thanks for the input
90% of parts now are Reman. It’s kind of a pleasant surprise when parts come and they are brand spanking new…at least in my case. I live in the northeast US.
I work and one of the best marine repower boat yards in New England specializing in commercial fishing boat repowers. Stuff like c18s Scanias, 1000 man engine and a ton of smaller 450hp Cummins I repowered a lobster boat with a reman c12 it didn't last a week before the engine gave up, reman parts and engine are junk they aren't worth the packaging there shipped in
Cutting Corners with The iron that you count on for your Bread and butter doesnt make sence.. I've wrenched on equipment that has been done by operator error.. And now I'm sure hes not going to buy anymore garbage for his equipment..
Yeah I can't really feel sorry for the guy with the tractor as I posted in my comment when he's going to skimp on $200 when driving a six-figure piece of equipment. I laugh off $200 on my relic semi tractor. But I'll be damned that it's going to be down because I won't buy an extra $200 part over crap.
The only defense I'll allow this guy to speak is that he bought it from a dealership which should come with some quality or warranty.
That is a hell of a tool haul there Warren, Congrats. My idea of reman........Reman the damn thing your self. Then it's brand new and done damn right!!!!!
Made me wince watching the fan blades hit the radiator.
Hey Warren is there any equipment out there that doesn't have so much over head and if so what is it just thought I'd ask
Nice boxes the tooling came in. Shows pride of ownership.
Hi Warren is a Cummins generator from 1968 with 1200 hours model NT-335-GS worth anything. Spent its entire life in climate controlled building. Engine worth anything?
Thanks for sharing Warren 👍💪. Sorry to hear about more reman junk.
I’ve some great deals on tools just having cash available when someone needed money.
same thing in the marine industry... tell your customer that a little gizmo that's from the the dealer costs 900 dollars and when they're finished bitching, they go someplace else but they're delighted when you tell them the made in mexico knock-off is 12 dollars. Of course it comes back next week with a totally pissed off irrational karen attached to it.
Thank you for the videos Mr Warren. 👍
You can never have enough tools. Think men just live tools I know I do.
Good tools forget the Chinese junk tools . The first time you use it it is the size it says or it spreads or breaks. Japan Tiawan KOREAMAKE.GOOD STUFF. I LIKE EUROTECH TOOLS. BAHCO WHICH IS SWEDISH MADE BUT STANLEY OWNED IS GOOD TOO..
What is with this reman stuff of JD is it just repaired to a price or
whats the go. It is always better to do the job.right first for.amy.number of reasons least of all I never liked working o a hot tractor on a hot.day or outside on tractor focusing things on.a old day.
Any time I bought parts for the 8450 or the 8400i always put knew parts in.Its cheap insurance..Mixing.new with old.is.never good
Junk in the box. Run into it on a regular basis. Pisses me off when I ID the issue and replace a failed part and it still doesn't work because the new part is failed before it came out of the box.
The Heavy Wrench is an awesome guy he’s actually the one who suggested your channel to me
That was an awesome deal! Hope all is well take care now!👍
Hey Warren hope all is well. Not sure if you noticed or not, but in your last video on the broken leaf spring, the rubber plug was missing from the passenger side on the bump stop post. It was easy to miss if you weren't looking for it directly. I only noticed it because I was looking at the height difference between the two when you were comparing side to side alignment. If that driver hits a hard bump it's gonna be a hard metal to metal bang coming from the passenger side. Just trying to help out bud.
I bought a Reman injection pump from Deere. It came apart in 1 hour and wrecked the gear train on the front of the motor. No help from dealer or Deere. That's the new way of customer service/appreciation. When my Powerstroke needed a waterpump, I bought a new one from Ford. After 20 years, I figured that was the only way to NOT have to change a lifetime warranty one yearly, let alone any other damage it might cause. Yup, it cost $300 over $85, but so far, no issues after 5 years.
Warren, looks like you scored big on the tools. 🤔😉
Does deere offer new and reman parts? Any time I have bought parts all I'm offered is new there. Didn't think it was like o'Reilly's. I realize engines are different.
Deere offers new and reman water pumps. I thought I would save 200 bucks and went with the reman, a mistake I will not make twice😉. Saving 200 bucks just cost me 3000+
@@dtstarlingfarms1245 man that sucks. Honestly I probably would have done it the same way if I were given the choice at the time.
I’m with you Warren. When it comes to reman. I wouldn’t use reman in anywhere it’s to hard to get to or where it may cost a lot of money to repair. Love watching your CZcams videos. The hell with anyone’s negativity about you. I would like too say how I really feel about people dogging you. But profanity is illegal on CZcams.
Reman of anything is junk. I feel sorry for that guy. Cheers :)
Are quite a few repairs are small stuff broken wire , wire connection sensors thing of that nature ? Then the small things that lead to big things such as this watet pump the cam gear which leads to the crank gear which leads to on and on just thinking ? Enjoy ur movies interesting to see how J D 55 series holding up they were just coming out when I got out of farm ranching we had a 2955 threw 4955 interesting to see where the failed first thank you
Happy or not ,thanks for your great videos.
The tools are Very cool.the easy part is buying the tools.the hard part is next with finding the set a home in your shop.are you going to video using the tool set? I would love to see how it is used.
All these companies make cheap crap that won't last. One would expect Deere to be the best but they are not anymore. My Uncle was an engineer for John Deere in the 1960s. Worked with 20 series. Those engineers were very proud of their 4020. He told my Dad, Just keep the oil changed, They will last forever! He was right!
Great video, and the stuff you got is a fantastic opportunity and price👍👍
Water pump run off the cam, what happened to good old belts?
Here's a perfect example of the phenomenon known as
"False Economy" that people fall into. Thinking to save money, they
purchase a much cheaper cost product- that in turn usually ends up costing
substantially more- than the regularly "high priced" item, because of
the inferiority of workmanship and/or materials when it
prematurely fails.
Hey, Warren- what's this $300 water pump going to cost now,
when you're done, parts & labor? Twice? Three times?
Customers do this all the time with vehicle maintenance, too.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/False_economy
the problem is when companies out source their replacement parts to other companies and the put their name on it and it is the same junk that's out there for sale for half the price
You are one of the hardest working dudes I have ever seen you are a bust ass mechanic and you do people right you make some of the best content in my opinion if you weren't always so damn busy I would really enjoy stopping by your shop and meeting you and shoot the shit for a while but nothing to worry about I ain't going to come by and bug ya you have a mountain of shit on your plate judging from what I have watched BTW you caught some nice fish on your vacation you deserved to do a little fishin you sure as hell earned it
The only thing I found true about made in America are those cute little labels that say made in America and it's the gospel truth the label itself is made in America God knows where the junk was made that it stuck on I think that's the reason why they paint the junk green and call it John Deere
I hope John Deere goes good for the repair of the engine.They want to sell junk they should be prepared for repairing what it destroys.
thank you for your service in the navy. did the sub have ever part in a room that you would need be a good vid to stop and sit down and tells use what it was like working of a sub thank you
i did rebuild those water pumps years ago they are done in Springfield Mo
Where are they rebuilt at Mexico, China ,Vietnam, Taiwan someone's backyard... Thanks for all your sharing with us.
Interested to know the price difference between the recon/new water pump.
$200 more for the new water pump
I have noticed that almost all the farmers I know that do well are also mechanics. It must really make a difference on the overhead.
My uncle had a massive dairy operation about 90 miles north of Las Vegas neVada. He was a master mechanic diesel, gas, electric, hydraulic. He would by a fleet of auction hay trucks in Sacramento and drive them back to Bunkerville Nevada. He had an endless supply of spare parts. He was a master welder. His operation was all computers, he played the Chicago options board. He was one of the most gentle , kind men I have ever met. He died about ten years ago as a very rich man. He and my aunt never took time off in 45 years running the dairy operation.
