Fixing the Parts Washer to Wash more Parts | Electric Motor Rebuild 

I'm an electrician and I couldn't find any fault in your way doing fault finding. Keep up the good work. 9🎉

I’m just wondering how long Mat laughed when you posted this video 🎉🎉🎉

Great job Sam, keep the videos coming I hope the RU-vid algorithm kicks in and you get millions of subscribers.

For the cost of some elbow grease, a couple bearings and a capacitor, you have a parts washer that should run for a long time.

Lol just a little heat! That the way it usually goes. Your sarcasm and easy going personality makes your videos great to watch. Thanks for the content!

OMG fluke 77. That was my best friend back in 1987-88 when I was working in factory maintenance. It is so cool to see younger guys that can use tools to troubleshoot rather than just guessing and shot gunning parts. Be sure to pass this skill on to your kids so it does not die.

I was wondering what Matt was going to do with the old washer .... It couldn't of gone to a better home . Great work with your repairs 🎉

Probably works better than any new one you can buy today. Seems the old equipment is the best equipment. Can't hardly fix the new stuff as they are typically filled with "disposable" parts.

As an electrical tech I appreciate your troubleshooting methods and your boldness to tackle things like remote crane control. I love Matt to peices and respect a man who knows his limits. Your skill set pairs with Matt's perfectly to cover each other's soft spots. Keep being a sparky and good luck with the Bay City rebuild. Looking forward to the next Scrappy/Creek startup!

Burning that bearing off seemed legit. 😂 The interior view was cool.

Such a relaxing way to enjoy my morning coffee.Good work Sam glad to see the washer back up and running.

Good job on the repair. Two things I noticed: 22:17 One of the wires to the new cap is loose, it arced when you turned it on. Fix that before it burns off. Second, either put the original overload relay back in, or make sure the replacement you used is set correctly to the motor nameplate amperage (as per whatever voltage the motor is wired for.) If the overload is not set correctly, you can and will fry that motor if it gets any issues while unattended. Glad to see a really good parts washer getting a new lease on life.

Great fault finding, well done , mate, send Matt the parts bill lol

Enjoyed this episode.... I love seeing old things get resurrected if they are worth saving...... Good Job...

Was sure interesting to watch as you fixed the cleaner. Nice job of going through it. Very cool to see how it worked from the inside. Always like your vids - Thank you for including us in your adventures.

Sam Fine job ! Outstanding attitude, ! Your skills show you had / have better than normal basic training on mechanical stuff! You are something that your parents can say” they are proud of”! Wishing you the best ! And thank you

The reason the motor kept starting/stopping is because the internal motor protector in the windings was tripping. With the bad capacitor the motor couldn't come up to the speed the centrifugal switch needed to open to disconnect the start winding. Partial clue was dimming lights {motor draws substantial during starting} and depending where you were standing was a loud hum when the motor "started", second clue. What surprises me is that it didn't happen before you replaced the bearings and when Matt was using it. Great job Sam. Answer for two comments below. Wash time and heat time are timer controlled up to 1 hr. Plain water will not clean. There are cleaners that are mixed with the water. It depends what you are trying to clean. "Hope this helps someone."

Sam, always impressed by your tenacity and skill in tearing stuff down and staying with it until they are fixed properly. I've always had few problems in taking things apart but your talent in remembering how they go back together I totally lack. Electrical problem solving is also a rare gift . Loving all your videos ! 👍👍👍🤩🥇

Brilliant video Sam watching from Edinburgh Scotland UK 🇬🇧 👏 👍

That's just like super dog and the ford are great looking trucks and trailers plus the little remote controls. Crane. And service truck.

I bet the washer is doing a much better job now than when it was dying. Good luck with her.

Awesome video! And I just love that Matt knew EXACTLY when to sell it! 😂 Seriously, you do an outstanding job on all the projects you've shared with us, and this is no exception. Very glad to see each of the collaborations you do with Matt as well; please keep up the good work together!

Hey Sam,great fix. Your golden dog was trying to help too,i see .

Last part was nice. I didn't know that the mesh was standing still and the box was turning.

That was some:-)completely different, a parts washer from the inside! Thanks for the run through :-) :-)

A little heat will help, really made me laugh! You did warm it up a little.

Like the video on Parts Washer and you made it work Thanks Sam .

It is helpful to put a slinger between the pump and the motor end bell. it is a rubber disk that stretch fits before on the shaft. it spins off the water before going in bearing

I'm surprised how clean that old go pro got!

Nice video, those machines are very handy and time savers. All your repairs on it are of course under warranty... At least you helped him out a lot..

great work Sam, I really appreciate your attitude you are always positive with your projects!

Great addition to the shop and great job bringing it back to service. Good heavy duty unit it looks like.

Great job Sam. I was just cringing when you applied heat so near the shaft, possibly of warping the shaft. I use a grinder to cut the inner race.

Their a lot of diesel shops that would be blessed to have you. But i sure you make good on your own. . And most all your stuff is more up to date than matt at diesel creak .but i injoy watching him bridge back. That on iron

hello Sam & it's is Randy and i like yours video is cool & Thanks Sam & Friends Randy

Great video Sam,your knowledge and abilities are incredible..thanks for sharing and stay safe.

Better than diesel creeks channel keep up he great vids.

Other week i found myself replacing a couple of 30Uf run caps on a commercial extractor for a kitchen.... Blown up.... When they go out.......they go out BIG... 😀🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿😀

It's really fun to see you fix things. You are really a good mechanic. Thumbs up from Sweden !

Awesome and outstanding as always.Thanks for sharing and taking us along

Yes I enjoyed the content. I worked hard this morning. Now I’m going to take a Scrappy Marathon break. Thanks Sam.

Happy to see the old beast is still providing service.

Nice work Sam!! You’ll have to give Matt a noogy next time ya see him lol.

Nice job done Sam, your rite, now you got a working parts washer 👍👍🍮🍮😎😎❤️

Nice save Sam. That really does a great job!

You know when Matt gets rid of something it has had a well used life and I mean well used LOL

Seeing the flames 🔥 I knew Sam was well on the way to fix this pump..🇦🇺👀🍺

That's just like that's little mack is going to be a cool truck went you get done with it.

"Split style bearing things...." aka bearing splitter. 😂 lol you were sooo close.

Hope you have many happy years with your parts washer.

Another awesome scrappy video.

Hats off to you Sam Every electric motor that I’ve tried to fix= I remove the rotor and it never goes back together right then heads to the scrap bin🤦🏻

That seems like a good stress test for the GoPro.

Loved the gopro in the washer.

How did you a Matt meet? It’s really fun to watch you two work together. Ten thousand thumbs up!!!!!

Very good,well done.

Nice job on the repair of the parts washer, interesting internal view, fun to watch, now, put the cam in the fridge to confirm that the light goes out when you shut the door!!🙄😏😉😂 Thanks for the video, appreciate your time and effort on them.

Change your spade connections on your new cap. The old ones have lost their strength from the heat and get loose from it trying to start from the bad cap.

Obviously the washer came with a lifetime warranty good for the life of the product. When the product died so did the warranty. Hope Matt gave you a good deal on it!

Nice work Sam

We now have a new MR CLEAN.

A good thing to do when mounting bearings is to check the slack. If you cant move the outer bearing ring the shaft tolerance is too high. And then bearing will not last long.

@22:18 you got a spark at the capacitor terminal ,,, checkif its loose ,, if it is, then, probably thats what damaged the old capacitor ,,, cheers ,, great videos 👍

Great video bro and good result too. Safe travels and happy easter. Ken.

I hope Matt gave you a good deal on it😊😊

Matt wants that back now.

Super Sam , little heat does the job , fix it not trash it , thanks for sharing Sam !

Sam, good job, I’m afraid when it comes to matters electrical I’m a huge failure and only as a last resort did I attempt repairs until I got a few repair bills and decided I should try myself. I’m still a reluctant player but on a farm you need to do these things and sometimes I even surprise myself, but admire guys like you who achieve great results.

Another successful repair 👌

Nice job. It may not be pretty but it's functional.

Good stuff Sam

Way to go Sam, another interesting video love your channel along with your buddy Matt!

Nice work Sam ! I love the huge spark when you turned it on after putting the new capacitor in . Mc Master is the bomb !

the go pro did very well indeed

Another great video Thanks

Good job Sam working like new now buddy 🔧🔧🔧👍👌❤️🐾🐾🦴🦴

Great video as always.

That bearing puller is generally called a clamshell.

good video Scrappy

Enjoying your videos!!

Now Matt should have you over for a nice steak supper

Keep up the Great Content Sam.👍🇬🇧🇺🇦 Sweet.

Thanks Sam ive always wanted to take a ride inside a parts cleaner 😅😅😅,inovative camera work my friend 😊😊 Kym Adelaide

Safety Hint for Polishing on Lathes: always put your hand with sanding paper on top of the rotating part, so if your paper tangles on the part, you get pushed away from the machine. If You put your paper on the bottom, You get pulled into the machine, if the paper sticks to your part.

Will you need to get that running up to 88mph (back to the future) before it will run properly 😊 I sure am glad that I had come across Matt's (diesel creek) channel that then got me onto yours. Great viewing

Great little video

Well done lad 👍

Purchased ..he should have given that to you,,,,,,,Cant read the numbers now after that heat wrench got ahold of those bearings

Nice job 👍

Good go pro shots!!!! Nice fix!

I agree with the person before me. Keep the videos coming. I know you have other things you have to do but, your content is awesome. Keep up the great work ✌️

Fun video! Great job!

Nice job Sam 👍

Good repair Sam great video thanks

I wish to tell you that the pumps of this nature are very good. And now to the negative side! The seal (buttom) at the shaft will in advertent sock up the moisture trough the rotation of the shaft. Once an abrasive liquid enters the lower cavity it will eventually wind up in the windings of the motor. I do recommend two items depending on abrasive liquid use, change from a brass/bronze propeller to plastic type CPVC. Or purchase a total plastic pump like a FLOTEC etc... We used plastic pumps because they were easy to work with.

Informative and entertaining video. Good job on getting that sorted. One thought: Whenever you use abrasives on the lathe it is a good idea to cover the ways and the carriage to protect them. Thanks for the video.

Theirs very few mechanic. That's kown machine shop work running lathe and mills. Plus your other skills . You have. Plus ready for any think with a great attitude.

Awesome pal

Sam keep the grease fitting and put some in to avoid any humidity getting in!! There looks to be some hinges under the danger high voltage sticker!! Could have helped in the installation!! Thanks for sharing

Very informative Video!!
