Hey everyone!
I felt it was time to see if it was possible to fire up the terrible-looking diesel engine in the old, Abandoned UNMOG 404 project, that we brought here, this winter.
If you want to see that frist part, where we got it, here is a link for that:
• Abandoned UNIMOG Proje...
This old 404 was swapped for a Diesel at some point in it's life.
Unfortunatly, i was shortly after, taken apart. and then abandonned all together. and just left sitting outside.
It ended up taking quite a bit of effort, all around, to get this engine to make some noise.
Thank you all for watching along!

If need to start a diesel truck and have no starter, choke up one or two of the wheels then jack up one rear wheel. And on that wheel wind a long strap about 4 - 5 times with the end coming down towards the rear. Engage the gear and put it in second and arrange to pull that strap with another vehicle, the spinning rear wheel will get that diesel engine to turn enough for a start.☘

Thanks KJ! It's always interesting to watch you go through the diagnostic process, one increment at a time. Love the channel and look forward to your next videos! Thanks for creating this content.

I for one like the new name, and great eloquent explanation of everything you’re doing. Keep ‘em coming KJ Off-Road!

I liked the old channel name but I'll keep watching. I think that Ford tractor was an outstanding purchase. Seems like you use it one way or another in every episode. Smart.

Cool new channel name. I am so excited to see you giving the 404 UNIMOG some love. The farewell to the starter was fitting. Thanking it and saying goodbye was perfect.

@manfredschmalbach9023 Месяц назад

Not sure I'd call torturing it on pure ether with a welded-solid UAZ-starter exactly "giving it some love" to be honest, but suit Yourself 😆😂

I enjoy your channel! I too have an army truck (dump) 6 x 6 1990 AM General that I use to haul dirt and manure. the part about spending money struck home because it has cost me more than I anticipated, fortunately there is a mechanic in the area that is willing to work on it. so whatever you call your channel, as long as you post it where I can find it, I'll be watching!

Hey K J , liking the new name ... plain simple !! Got to admit EVERYBODY loves a good " will it start " video, and that one was no exception !! Like you mentioned befor about the old name, it's still a shame that you haven't been able to film any of your offroad races .. thats a real pitty but i guess thatscwhat happens when your a one man band 😢... because i heard the Danish are JUST as mental crazy as the Swedish when it comes to motorsport!! Lol 🤪 😅 Keep up the great work, my friend from all here in the UK 😊

@macmorgan6685 Месяц назад

Back in the early 70s my first real job was as a salesman with our local MB dealer. We sold cars, the 309d buses and UNIMOG and I was given the buses and UNIMOG to sell. My aunt had bought a UNIMOG to handle farm chores, mostly cutting grass, and I eventually ended up with it. It was a most impracticable vehicle foe everyday use but it was unique with PTOs front/rear, an air compressor and a rear mounted winch.

@Mochioverland Месяц назад

Our 309 D runs on an OM617- it's a pleasure riding it! Why did you deal only 309D vans and not the other variations ?

@bonkbonk92 Месяц назад

Also as long as you're careful not to let it get sucked in, you can wet a rag with some gas and hold it over the intake instead of using ether. I guess ether is fine but I'm personally not a fan of it for these little diesels. I've heard of wrist pins getting broken like that but idk how true that is.

@KJOff-Road Месяц назад

I do try not to use ether, if i don't need to. but this poor thing just needed all the help it could get. :) Thanks for watching along!
