I knew this girl back in high school.......
#doublerubber 😂
Hahaha shore billy... didn’t we all
That’s hilarious!
@Les Brown yeah she was in my AG class too we changed oil on a on a John Deere sprayer
I seem to recall her saying she put the oil filter on tight, I said great
We all did!
In our school, she was known as 'tripple bagger.' 1 for me - 1 for her and 1 for the Dog! OR - 1 for me and 2 for her - in case one 'broke!'
Watching this video reminds me of working with my dad. He passes away 5 years ago. Enjoy the time you have with your dad,,! I miss him every day, !
Daddy Cornstar said he could have taken that off with his bare hands.

🤣🤣 you Iowa boys are hardcore
In his dreams
Cole!!!
This one made me laugh so hard
Ever made a 20 minute job turn into a full day job? Ya me neither
Anyone who has worked on a farm will recognize this type of situation. On occasion, things go wrong in unexpected ways. That's when farmers shine. They know what to do. And when that doesn't work, they can get creative--sometimes very creative. Yankee know-how at its best! Thanks for letting all of us look in on this unexpected problem--and seeing your approach to fixing it.
I was crackling at the #doublerubber, and then the fun started when your dad stepped in. You know it is serious when dad takes over. But when you got to the tie-downs on the floor bit, and he was just like "there is no oil in it", I was crawling on the floor... Thank you, and your family, for making my day! What a privilege to work together with your father on a family farm!!!
🤣🤣
Well you should never... I would have.... Don't ever use that.... Great way to destroy your....!!! 😂 There got those comments out of the way. Seriously though never seen one so bad as that.
Good job
@@BACKTHEBLUETRUMP Like some guy with legs for arms put it on or something...
@@FoolOfATuquessshhhhh.... Zach doesn't need to know this little detail...
Its the ((quality)) of the brand;)
Welker Farms Inc lol y’all are the best
Well at least your dad was giving you encouragement and help ! And you could laugh about IT !!!
You have run into John Deere's right to repair policy. Only the dealer is allowed to replace the filter. It requires a special computer access code to unlock the threads. 😢
wish we had a laugh emoji here!! Hilarious,,, but sooooo true!!! Probably would be a $700 charge too!!
😂🤣
Dude! Thats so friggin true!!!
Ah hahaha!! Good one!!
Tom Mendenhall Maybe John Deere got bought by Apple? Call the Genius Bar...Alright, I’ll leave.
Happy New Year!
It's such a relief to see that I'm not the only one who has days like this. Quick job turns into an afternoon, and multiple bloody knuckles.
I always use green locktight on the threads of my oil filters. That way they don't rattle off. Then when it's time to change it I'll trade off the machine.
I thought i heard Roscoe say something like that today yeah :)
Lol secretly running green paint with the big brute? Lol you gotta get your own videos going cause they’d be better then nicks
@leg arms Big buds don't need filters, filters need big buds !!
green comes off easy, you have to use red
Weld man if you can afford it then all the power to you but for those of us that are less fortunate than that we got to improvise and only replace it necessary Parts if we absolutely have to because sometimes you run into problems like this and there's not a whole lot of options and when it doesn't want to come off it does not want to come off
I've watched this movie three or four times and it's funny every single time. Awesome job boys. . . I bet that kind of thing never happens with blue, yellow, or red tractors. JD made a new system to keep people from stealing filters but never told anyone.
Wow. I run a farm in Central Nebraska and have changed alot of oil filters on tractors and pick ups and never seen it take that much to get one off. You learn something new every day. Great video as always. Look forward to the next one
Yes!...a man of the same ilk as me I have used the "screwdriver through the top of the filter" method of changing an oil filter SO many times in my previous farming life. I will admit that I never had the problems you did with this gem. Augh...the joys of farming. I am very impressed that you didn't let out a plethora of "blue" words. You're my hero Zack. Thanks for sharing this video with us.
7:52 The T-shirt you are wearing is perfect for this video...
IKR
I’ve never ever seen anyone use a angle grinder to get an oil filter off !!! UNREAL !!!
@Les Brown as an old idustry mecanic since 1978 i have used lots of tools to remove oilfilters but nothing beat this type,, spesially in tight spots::
if the filter is stubborn i add say a 6 feet pipe to the 1/2'' T handle.

- that could have been on the back side of the motor of my little 3300 combine where an angle grinder would not fit, then what? oh and you can't see real good back there either.
You sure do keep your sense humor through all of this. I do know, from watching and learning from watching you these past few months I don’t complain about the price of food anymore.
Change many oil filters in my day on the farm, but not so much anymore. When I saw you drive that screw driver into that filter ..... it took me to a place a long time ago. I have to admit, never used the "cutting tool" trick. Thanks !!
Wow... Ok, you've topped my worst oil filter experience.....
maddog8911capt
- yea he beat mine too.
“My doctor took her to the vet”, great service from the Doctor 😂😂
It's incredible how resilient dogs and cats are. No time at all after being properly busted up and Didge is up and walking. I hope the vet gave him some pain killers because that has to hurt.
I love the fact this came up in my CZcams feed again. This will haunt you for the rest of your life Mr Johnson, enjoy. 👍👍😉👌👌👌
I had this exact thing happen on 2 other John Deere engines with the same housing. Deere replaced under warranty. Ended up with virtually the same process in getting it off. I never would have imagined I would spend almost 2 hours on a filter!
I'm sorry if this sounds harsh, but it's time to find the engineer that designed it, and the person that put the filter on there and hit them Square in the forehead because you don't want to hit them in that stupid look they have permanently on their face.
2:52 If I learned anything as an Air Force mechanic, if it won't come off, just swear at it for a minute and it'll loosen right up. Hope the dog makes a speedy recovery.
Best t shirt for the occasion hands down
As far as I can tell there's been three people at work on this oil filter: the guy who stripped the threads, the guy who put a new one on despite the stripped threads, and the guy who went at it with a cut-off wheel and a chisel, and the third guy did the least damage.
All the way through that process I was looking at the housing and wondering how it could be removed from the engine? We only had the one angle, but it looks less than straight forward from what we could see. You can undo the feed to the turbo and maybe disconnect the housing from the top, but we could see no way to remove the housing from the pipe that goes down to the sump and (I presume) the oil pump. Perhaps it is a push in fit with an O-ring. Just noticed this is an old video so I'm going to look for part 2
Slightly before the cut off wheel came out I started to suspect you may be better off replacing the housing and giving up on the filter.
I screamed out loud........SHIZZITS BOUT TO GET REAL....when he broke out the cutoff wheel!
Tells wife: “I will be home for lunch in about 30 min, just gotta get a quick job done”
3hours later........... happens to me all the time
What happened? I just blew a seal! WTF!
Ahhh.......The life of a farmer, never a dull moment!!!!
Zach a nice commercial for WD-44. It did the job. Looks like you need to replace the housing. I have wondered what would you have to do if a filter refused to spin off. Now we know. Thanks for sharing a real-life situation. Wishing you good weather in the next couple of weeks. - Dean from Edina
Plot twist, that was already an aftermarket housing and was Reverse Thread
As a teenager I worked in a gas station (1970) and a guy brought a car in for an oil change. Filter Wouldn’t come off. Drove a screwdriver thru it and no luck. Had to unbolt the housing from the block and put it in a vice and chisel it off. Never forgot that. The guy did tip me!
Been in this situation but without the access youve got. I feel your pain!
Ohhh the joys of farming and getting a piece of equipment with a hidden treat. Took two men, a camera man and and a small girl to change an oil filter.
You got more patience than I do. I would have been cussing and throwing things a long time ago!
Reminds me of when my exwife asked me to change her oil shortly after she served me divorce papers.... Loctite, permatex and a impact gun came into play... I just wanted to make sure she had no leaks...........
Ha!
You forgot the Mig welder. Hypothetically speaking of course. Evil laugh.
She probably traded off the car.
Ya nice
You're my kinda guy. I'm SURE she had it coming, probably MORE !
Its surprisingly enjoyable watching someone else fight demons like this
A 12 minute video of you changing an oil filter kept me entertained but 5 minutes in school and I’m ready to fall asleep. Congratulations 👍👏
🤣🤣
Wife: Dinner will be ready in 30 minutes
Zack: I'm going to change the oil in the tractor real quick
*3 hours later*
I’ve had tight filters guys but that’s crazy!
Did leg arms put that filter on?
That dude would have shoved the whole sprayer!
Lol
Leg Arms doesn’t do push ups, he pushes the world down!
Steve Neal Actually if you clean the surface where the rubber seal on the new filter shall contact to well, so that there is no oil on it..
and then tighten the new filter to hard,, you might experience this situation.. since the friction of the dry rubber is quite high against clean steel..
so i usually vet my finger with oil and rub on the rubber gasket on the new filter.
fasten the new filter by hand and add just a little extra with a tool..
that way it always come off easy becouse the thin oil film on the gasket dont dissapear in years.
Wrong youtuget
BEST ACTION video yet
Ana has gotten so big in less than a year she's a real beautiful dog
“My doctor took her to the vet” hahahah I’m dying 🤣🤣
No oil filter was hurt in the making of this video.
That's a lie...
Just destroyed
I had the exact same problem on one of my john Deere’s here in Aus. If the filter has been on there sometime and sees a fair bit of moisture it previously the machine lived outside, the water makes its way into the top of those threads and the filter literally sticks itself there. Mine was just as much fun as yours to get off. Some anti-seize on the threads and a run of electrical tape around the top will keep the moisture out. Have not had a drama since. Love the videos mate, keep up the good work!
"Most rain is wet..." this is pure gold
I love the saying on your shirt! The shirt says it all!
As Charlie Brown would have said “Good grief!”
How many farmers does it take to change an oil filter lol. More then 2 apparently
A couple to hold the filter, and some to screw the tracktor off.
Gerrit Stok seems almost easier at that point lol
The real question is how many Deer Techs would it have taken?
JakeOhT I’m thinking at least 4, then they would have had to replace the whole assembly and then just charged Zach
Three guys on a trans filter that was factory fresh on an IH 280, what a pain that thing was
Hey Zack I want to thank you. Because YOU inspired me to start a yt Channel and wanting to become a farmer at only 11 years old so thank you
This was your best video ever. I laughed and laughed and laughed. Thanks.
I've replaced thousands of oil filters on different engines and never had one so screwed up.
The previous owner must be a CZcamsr who is clearly the Anti - MN Millennial Farmer and is sponsored by JB Weld and LocTite. Your virtue and honor has brought an evil adversary upon you!
Nah, Rocksett for sure. Even heat won’t get Rocksett off (but if you know the trick it’s relatively simple).
Perhaps someone didn’t Oil the seal, and went to town on it when they changed it last.
@@Len_M. More like a cross threaded filter tightened too much
I haven't finished the video yet but I guessing it's been cross threaded! Perfect shirt for this video.
I was waiting for two things: 1) Hey, I didn't mean THAT filter! 2) Scratch of the green paint - the horror! Thanks guys - I have many memories of working on equipment in Saskatchewan, outside in summer/winter with tools being an AC welder, torches and a ball-peen hammer. Thank you.
I’m from Australia and I’m thoroughly enjoying your channel . Has hooked ! Great work mate .
Zac, those pliers work better if you turn then around FYI
I saw that and could just feel the metal to metal slipping lol
So that would have made it able for him to get it off even tho a pipe wrench did nothing
I think the limited space was the reason he was using the pliers and the filter pliers backwards. If you noticed he couldn't get the pipe wrench on the fitting where it would be most beneficial also. Who ever put the filter on must have had about as much trouble getting it on with it cross threaded that way.
I was going to mention that filter wrenches and Channel locks are directional but honestly as bad as that was I doubt if it would make much of a difference.
Yes, I didn't realize it was going to as bad as it was when I wrote that :)
I hope the pup gets better soon! And that German Shepherd is beautiful!
I thought I was the only one that had the most simplest jobs in the world to do go totally wrong. I would of had a whole lot more choice words to say as I was doing that. Way to go on the patience, and perseverance.
When working on farm equipment it’s best to never say “this will be a quick, easy job “ I feel your pain on this.
My man using them channel locks backwards and it’s killing me
That was bothering me too!
I don't ever think I ever had one that bad. You have vastly more patience that me.
That right there is why it's really a good idea to put some oil on the filter seal when installing it.
Excellent choice on the left handed metric flat head screwdriver to turn the filter!! I wld have done the same !
I got the bill for the next 30 pack of beer! Cheers 🍻 lol.
Hey that's one of those 5 minute jobs that takes 5 hours to do, that my dad used to yell at me for!!! glad you got it on video hehe
We had a 5083 in our shop to install a loader. Customer decided he wanted us to change the oil and filter while we had it in. Same exact thing happened. We were able to get the outside of the filter off and ended up using an air chisel to get the threaded piece off the base. Didn't have to change the housing, but it sure was a pain in the butt! Crazy stuff for sure.
I was helping you pull on that wrench!
I’ve been a Deere mechanic for about 6 years now. And Deere has had many complaints about these style filters doing this. I, myself, have had a couple do the exact same thing. Replaced the filter head assembly as a whole 2-3 times. TERRIBLE design!
I’ve been a Deere tech for 15 year never had one like that. Air hammer can be your best friend.
I guess I’ve just had bad luck with those style filters. Never tried an air hammer might have to do that next.
Glad to see it is not just me struggling with filters like that.
MN Millennial: my favorite BTO on youtube. Good stuff as always!
That reminds me of a bolt I had attaching an emergency brake cable under a car once. By the time I got it off you couldn't tell it was once a bolt lol.
You the best youtuber in the world
Gaming with Benny 2 him and welker farms too
Sending prayers to the puppy.
Oil filters are such a love/hate relationship! Nowadays I seriously hand tighten, and grease the gasket on everything. Work smarter not harder, that's what old man always says to me.
and now we know why it says on the side of every filter, tighten 1/2 turn after gasket contacts base. even has pictures for those who can't read.
look at al the pretty sparks!!!
This video was just as entertaining a second time
the best tutorial how to changed the oil filter :)
good to see a different side of you, just joking around with something that's such a pain in the a$$
Don't you love it when a 15 minute job turns into a 3 hour one? Welcome to my world.
Best line of the video (2:48): "Get your stinky hands out of her face."
A wise man would have followed that up with "Yes, dear"
That's impressive!!! We had an 8420 we had a hell of a time getting the fuel filters off. Didn't need angle grinder but used the old screw driver trick.
BEST EPISODE EVER!
I've dealt with this many times over the years.
Air hammer with a chisel bit works everytime 😉
I was thinking that. Love my air hammer. I need to get a big nasty one
And you end up right where Zack did - needing a new filter housing....but you wouldn't have busted your ass for an hour and a 1/2 trying.
jclark ok Eric from sma... lol
Zach, that happened to me once. I used my air chisel to spin the collar loose.
I watch your videos as a come down from the day. I mean, right before bed. I'm so angry, frustrated and irritated that such a simple job took so dang long that I'm not going to be able to sleep. I was there in spirit with you guys...Now where is the Benadryl....
I've seen this movie before,someone gets handed the wrong spec filter with the close,but not quite thread size and unwittingly spins it on anyway.
The method I use to get them back off,is a cut all the way through the filter about an inch down from the crimp with a sawzall.Followed by an old 3/4 drive socket with some pins welded on to fit the return holes in the threaded plate kinda like a spanner wrench.This allows the use of a ratchet or if really bad an impact wrench to get the hull off the filter head.
I give you credit man, I would have popped my top 10 mins in and completely lost my cool. lol
I edited that part out!
I hear ya bud@@MillennialFarmer
I like your videos
Come to find out he was doing righty-tighty the whole time. lol.
had that problem a lot on deere machines, when you put the new filter on make sure to use some grease on the threads and filter gasket, it wont hurt the engine and makes taking the filter off next time a lot easier
My heart about came out of my throat when you said Didge got hit by a trailer. Please please keep us updated on her recovery.🙏
I've had to do the screw driver through the filter trick before but that's the worst I've experienced. If I ran into one that bad all you'd hear from the shop is thrown wrenches lol!
Hopefully there's no children around... if they are they shall learn a whole new vocabulary!
Yah u could definitely tell when the bottom half tore loose, just about everybody would have had to use a lot of bleeps
"Guess I won't drive that POS for a while" 😂
so impressed you got through that ordeal without bloody knuckles!
I've never hear you do a voice-over on a clip before.. That adds to the production value a bit
So i Guess this oil change is a two part video !!. LOL that is just incredible
yup will never forget when my friends mom took his car to town once and thought shed be nice by getting the oil changed for him instead of doing it himself like normal. they had the filter so tight they screwed the center threads through the housing and cracked the oil filter housing.
At least you have a 500k state of the art goose call, it was making some good honks there a few times
“Most rain is wet” 😂😂😂
Don't laugh we get dry rain in Ireland!
At least 'MOIST' !
Hope your pup feels better soon
Zack, I love my oscillating tool. Good for any job.
If the farming thing doesn't work out, Jiffy Lube
When we change oils on our tractors at my farm we put oil on the gasket so that it will come off a lot easier. Just a suggestion for next time
I personally enjoy these type of videos because I am new In farming, I drive my own tractor and combine and starting to do the maintainance on them. I have claas machinary though
I really like your dad's style.
