- I was using my bobcat S185 to spread some asphalt millings on my driveway when it overheated on me, this machine has never given me any trouble so lets make sure its still reliable!

I didn't realize you had the Autocar so long. Nice to go back to these old videos and see what the farm looked like before you started all the large scale work on it.
We see the farm . Yes . What’s to come stay tuned you’re gonna love it
Thanks for videoing all your adventures. You're more entertaining to watch than the super Bowl which is on today. Will probably skip it to see all your older videos.
I didnt even know it was super bowl Sunday till about 3:00... id rather watch paint dry Thanks for watching!!
My s 160 has a over heating problem also. And your time & effort to show your work to clean. is great. Thanks
Fast forward - you’ve got this place looking much better. Containers & roof are nice, Can’t wait for the big shop build.
Watching this video 15 months after posting. (11-1-20) Wow!!! You have ton a ton of work out there. In this video there is No Road, Only one container, No Roof, Lots of trees in the way before the road was built. It anyone wants to build a city, call Diesel Creek.
Yep lol pretty much all a solo operation as well. And in my spare time, after I get this church project squared away it’s gonna be all ahead full on the farm!
Are you driving AND flying your drone? That's next level. But don't stop there. Have a beer and text your wife, too!
you do realise most decent drones have a follow mode ?? activate it & the drone will follow it's controller ( which is probably lying in the passenger seat )
Glad you'll soon have christine to do the job.
But I recommend to watch some grading videos first so you learn how to do it perfect.
I was blown away when I learned how important the blade angles in every direction are and how to proceed from ditch to ditch,
to get the best results and to mix the gravel perfect.
There for a hot second it looked like we might get run over but you stood us back up
keep up the good work and god bless your work and life
nice job on those heat exchangers , thanks
I love a bucket with a heel for grading.
Lots of buckets these days don't have heels. ☹️
Good, good and good thank you for sharing "Keep going and I wish you every blessing!!
Thanks!
Great bobcat
Duct tape is handy for a quick fix to remove the pine needles from your radiator…..the tack pulls most of them right out!
To imagine it was so overgrown before he made his road I can't imagine the work that went in to this
Living in Glasgow as I do and having no experience in anything to talk of, I think ( and I don’t know why it just popped into my head ) but maybe if you had a road grader for instance maybe a 1960’s Galion one, just a thought.
Like that ford ya got there!!!
Thank you
What brand of flatbed do you have on your truck
Tashisa Hill it’s a Norstar brand
You just HAD to run over part of that pile on the way in :)
Might not hurt to take the radiator out, and take it down and have it checked out to see if you have any other issues going on Matt. As a radiator rebuild is a lot cheaper then an engine rebuild.
I hate nobs with negative comments but bit of advice try not to pressure wash your radiator as it bends the thin fins and can make it worse 👍
Sometimes that’s the case yes, but on this machine they were nice and stiff fins and it was the only way I could get the stuff out of the rad.
@@DieselCreek I wold have washed it too!!!
Matt if you take War out grader blades and weld them to the bottom edge of your front end loader buckets and use them as wear bars your bucket will last longer and most people throw grader blade away just something for you think about that's all. Jk
They'll also work on the bottom of your Bobcat and Skip loaders jk
👍👍
Vacuumcleaner for the radiator
Thanks for all the work on close-ups - your videos are very informative! What's causing that hydraulic cooler radiator to corrode so severely?
Moisture, it’s steel vs radiators being aluminum or some other low corrosion material. The debris getting stuck in it holds the moisture In there and it just rusts
Hate to be critical but you need to mow your road. Enjoy your channel keep up the good content. Did not know this was old content.
👍
Just my $.02, I'd use a water hose and some degreaser next time, less chance of damaging radiator or hyd cooler over the long term.
Got my 773 overheating cleaned out the radiator with compressed air and it’s still overheating when I am using the brush hog!
I will try pressure washing the radiator fins next hopefully it will work
Mine was caked on with dirt I have the feeling it might be a water pump issue or thermostat?😮
Great videos What is the first video you ever made for Diesel Creek
It’s called Wine em, dine em, pipeline em. You can still watch it on here
Maybe put screen over or under grille in body sheet metal
That bobcat engine compartment is pretty grundgy
Just me again JK on your ratertor? They make special comb to straighten out the fins on air conditioner commercial and residential they work damn good I want out of a job I didn't have a portable air compressor and I didn't have a leaf blower
know what you mean about pine needles. had a pool amongst pine trees....was a constant battle....darn needles clog up everything.
Where did you get those metal tracks around the skid steer tires? They look pretty neat and look like they work well.
They make a huge improvement over rubber tires alone. And there are several brands. These are grouser brand and they are my favorite brand. Very well made. I got this set used but just google skid steer over the tire tracks and you’ll find them. thanks for watching!!!
@@DieselCreek Thank you very much for the info and taking the time to answer!
There is a company in Cassleton,ND that makes them as well. And a company called Ray-Mac builds a lot of oem replacement parts/implements. They are in Gwinner, ND.
Nice video. I must look to see if you completed a video of that bull dozer work which seemed interesting.
I did!
For get it
At 13:55 Why do a job by hand, when you can use a Machine!! "More Power!" :-)
Who makes those Steel Tank Tracks? I need a set.
These ones are grouser brand, I recommend them for sure!
Are you worried somebody might pull you over before you get back to the shop? 😆
I recently saw a video of somebody pulling their tractor down the freeway on their trailer without a single strap or chain on it. 🙄
Morning. In the UK we use a fine mesh or filter medium in front of the coils. This is mainly for air conditioning. As we get a lot of leaves and pine needles. Would this work for the bobcat?
Think it would clog quickly but would be easy to change out
@@DieselCreek yeah its easier to take off and vacuum it out. But it may need something else. With air con. It's stationery. Your bobcat. Is all over the place. I did enjoy the video all the same.
Watch Andrew Camarata video about replacing Bobcat drive unit. You are best off selling the Bobcat and getting an ICI or Takeuchi.
IHI is Takeuchi with a different paint job….. The machine itself is a good machine I don’t care what Andrew says. The only reason I switched is because the newer ones made by doosan ARE junk and my dealer is terrible and they act like they are too good to help me every time I go in for a part. They all break but for what this one has been through it’s held up remarkably well. I’ve run tons of them
@@DieselCreek Well that's a shame that Doosan stuff is not good. No wonder Andrew is always after older machines. Having a good dealer is important. I'm glad you've had good luck with your machine. I enjoy your videos especially those where you are fixing things. Looking forward to finishing up Christine and seeing your new dreamshop get built.
You sure you are a Pennsylvania Boy, never seen a Pa. boy drive that slow on a good dirt road like that before, but the rest of your show I like, now I found some other guy who fixes stuff like you do, he wears some classy looking pants, only difference is when he takes something apart he cleans it, and shines it up before he puts it back in. Sort of reminds me of my dad, who was always yelling at me, you took them parts off, now clean em back up before you reinstall them again. Then when I got done cleaning them up and went to re-install them he said boy, you going to put those parts back on that dirty area get your butt cleaning that area. Good Old Dad, miss him.
what the 411 about the Crain
did any body else read it as spending millions fixing bobcat overheating issues.
ps whoever owns a bobcat that keeps on breaking down can relate
There are intros I can tolerate, and then there are intros longer than 3:00 that are just out of the realm of likability. Love the rest of the content though.
Ever see a real Pennsyltuckian drive that slow on a dirt road. Love the show though, especially the ones on that old church, but just think when he gets it done, he can become a minister and we all can go to church there. I am trying to figure out where that church is, I know I seen it before in my travels. Just can't put my finger on the area. Three shows I love, the slow driver, the guy with the fancy pants, and the guy that says that is just fine. So now when I am working on something and it goes wrong, I say that is just fine, and when a bolt won't turn I get a bigger hammer, or pipe and when I really am in trouble, well the fanciest work pants I have are dickies, so I put those on and put a big hammer (besides mine) in the hammer holder.
My thought as well.
Quit at 2:42.
First 30 seconds were great!
Use duct tape to remove pine needles
Dude looks like a junk yard. clean it up!!!
All In due time, I’ve been building a collection for years and just not getting a building up to put stuff in. I don’t like it looking like that either!
trying to enjoy your videos but the acid rock can do without thanks.
far from acid rock but the newer videos have a little less music and I toned it down so its not so loud! Thanks for watching!
Personally, I happen to like it! And I’m 64..........
I am 69 and think the music is great, makes me want to go out and fix or clean something. Just Fine was my favorite until I stumbled on Diesel Creek, This guy is great, I just can't see how he gets all those frozen bolts out so easily, seems like whenever I run into one I bread the darn thing off, and have to drill it out.
