As a retired heavy equipment mechanic I really enjoy your videos. It’s not for the mechanical work, hell I refuse a ton of work as my back is trashed and honestly my pension is pretty good. What I like is knowing a old school mechanic that isn’t afraid to work on anything is still out there. You do a great job of keeping up on the new technology but still smile when a old mechanical piece of equipment needs some love. It’s refreshing to watch your videos.
I wouldn’t ask you fix my watch but I take my hat off to you for your knowledge, experience and balls to take on some of the jobs you do, not to mention some of the site conditions you have to work in. I think most youngsters watching your channel would be scared off by how hard your line of work can be. Thanks from UK.
Good to see Blake again. Hey Blake. Another dam good video. Hope your all doing grate. I'm getting ready for a long ride across the country. I would like to stop by and say howdy. I won't keep ya long. I know your flying like crazy. Have a good one.
Thanks for the many hours of enjoyment. It makes me tired just watching you. I am retired and let my strength to Leukemia, so no more of the heavy stuff anymore. I'm always telling my wife how many dozers I helped repair. Thanks for your channel.
Thanks, yet again for your time and video. It a pleasure to watch you work. Some of the information I don't understand. As I am a retired plumber, in Ireland. Bless the both of you.
I’m glad you’ve still got Blake to teach,that’s bloody brilliant,throw him the spinners and stand and teach,we all learn by doing,have a great season buddy.
Perfect....money well spent for who ever owns this tractor....I seen the dog jump into the truck...I guess she called it a day...I hope your customers watch these videos and see what it takes to repair these machines and realize that there not paying for labor....but raw talent....take it easy when you can
Great job 👍 Warren, another awesome video. Got it done and teaching us and Blake along the way. Everyone makes mistakes but knowing how to fix them is the name of the game. You guy's have a great weekend. Thank you for your service this memorial day.
I love everything you do on this channel brother it's the only RU-vid channel I listen to everything they say because I don't want to miss learning something
Did I just hear you say, I'll seal up the top end, and then worry about these broken bolts? Major confidence, super big balls, call it what you want, you have it!
I never see your son without sunglasses over his eyes!!!! Hahaha Nice to see a face once and a while! Hope all is going well Warren and Family. I’m in NY and we finally had a stretch of nice weather this week and we got some corn and beans put in, we only have a small 350 acre farm where we milk cows but we stay as busy as the rest.
Sounded good. Just like a dear. Only thing better than that is when it's working hard in the field. Great videos Warren keep them coming . Thanks for sharing.
good to show the code fault, when doing numbers , I think every one has done just as you did. We are not perfect and human side of repairs IS FOR REAL!
Great video. I really enjoy it when you go into detail explaining the why you do things the way you do. It makes sense to this old fart who is just learning the "why for" on the newest diesels. It is mind boggling to me how far they have gone with the electronic controls. Also, I followed your advice and bought a new 1/2 drive super-duper Milwaukee Impact. I have had a Free-Spin Hub conversion kit sitting here for my '07 Dodge ram 3500 4x4 and a couple weeks ago I had some help so we installed it. That impact is great. I will (slowly) be converting to red when it comes to battery powered tools. Thanks for the tip and Milwaukee needs to step up and send some love your way.
snap on electronic torque wrench is great -i have a 3/8 one - just got one of the astro lights ,wish i had had one before i retired -hang in there Warren
Again the Difference between a Wrench Monkey and a Mechanic is shown here Again This is why we need People Like you Warren because you explain and Show Mistakes can happen the Difference is you make them right Thank you again
The benefits of a real torque wrench! Not the crap I had to use 40 years ago with a pointer on top and a scale on either side of the pull bar handle. Any one remember those? Still have it. Bar has a massive bow to the left. Warren, how can you store so much information in one brain? Can't stop watching!
That would drive me mad, entering long strings of numbers like that ! I have to check phone numbers three times to convince myself I have them right ! Thank Gd for the electronic phonebook !
re-back troubles,athletes warm up and warm down before and after vigorous exercise, 10 minuets strong stretching and some ti-chi will fix you up,one can not go out in the morning and start hauling stuff around with cold muscles,we make sure our motors are warmed up ,so our bodies should be, just do it.
The 1234yf gas is super expensive here in the UK too. I’ve had no choice but to buy a new machine as a third of the vehicles I get in my shop these days have that system. The gas prices are just bloody profiteering...... and customers look at me like it’s my fault........
F ING AAHHHH!!!! WHAT A GOOD JOB!!!!!!! Pretty neat you do everything 100% correct, by the book!!! Thing sounds BEAUTIFUL!!! I bet the customer is one Happy Camper!!!
Great job loved the content very informative, but.... if you ever get to where you can’t do this kind of work anymore, you could take the guys place that does the “Clear Eyes” commercial on TV 😂😂
I got too much on the head bolts once rebuilding a 13.5. Had oil running out the sides of head gasket when I got done with torque procedure. Ended up being fine but I sure worried about that for a long time. Lesson learned
That injector trim number is a Hexadecimal, so 0-9 numbers and A-F letters. Shitty programming in Texel that it let you put in a S character, because its not a valid Hex digit.
you will be money and frustration ahead if you swap to l e d lighting ,cant compete with your mechanical skills but as a pretty good electrician the money savings in power will pay for the new lights and the ability to see soo much better will make you not even care they use less electricity and last so much longer,enjoy the vidios and keep up the honest good work you do
I was looking to buy a torque wrench; I would probably use it a couple times a year on my old Ford T-Bird, what would you recommend? Nothing too fancy, just a quality tool.
VGT's are great until they fall apart! Seen a lot of them come apart, but the failure you found here isn't real common. You'll have it back planting in quick it looks like. At least an inframe on these is fairly easy to access everything. Thanks for the video. Trim codes electronically flow balance the injectors rather than having to physically shim the nozzle or something on old school stuff. I've found most times you can get away without entering the new trim codes. But if you get one really high or low flowing injector you can have a problem, but it doesn't happen often.
Enjoyed watching Warren and Blake wow really something with the computer interface with the engine wonder if the brand new machines have a embedded chip in the injector and the computer would automatically update itself
What brand torque wrench are you using for the head bolts? The injector trim file is actually for injector flow matching, it is basically a offset so the computer can adjust the pulse to make up for small variations in flow.
I may have missed it and have exactly zero experience with diesel engines but are you using a torque spec specifically for lubricated bolts? Lubrication drastically increases the tension on the bolt if torqued to the normal dry spec.
Patrick Outhier Torque specifications for ‘dry’ bolt actually mean very lightly wetted with oil. ‘Wet’ means drenched or covered in grease. I suspect he’s lightly sitting the bolts using the ‘dry’ spec as per the bolt manufacturer recommendations
Tractor for many years run without computers - don't think they are a necessity - I heard farmers are buying used tractors without computers - what do you think and what have you heard
Hello Warren, good work as usual, you should maybe advertise your shop location so we can bring you more business, but I know your swamped during spring planting season, maybe for the lean months? Anyways, I think if you ask your wife or Blake to advertise your merchandise, hats, t-shirts, sweaters, mechanic gloves, I know you don’t have the mechanic gloves just some suggestions for you, you could increase the time and variety you spend on the merchandise could be a profitable endeavour for you, you could have some Sling Blade sayings on some of them as I know you enjoy that movie, continued success. Sincerely Fabrizio
Better check that condenser on the drivers side for a leak on the Yukon. I have had lots of them leak on the R134a but I just had my first one with 1234yf leaking the other day. They “improved” the refrigerant but didn’t fix the problem with the condensers. SMH
that r1234yf is expensive crap, and the cost of gearing up to work on those systems isn't worth your time... I'd send him to a dealer and wash your hands of it.
Deere and CAT always says to replace head and rod bolts never reuse old bolts.I made that mistake. That VGT stuff in a decade will all be junked. We need to go back to 1980s Cummins simple.. Way to many Electronics and widgets failings cost $$$$$$$ I noticed alot of guys retrofitting 5.9 Cummins into old school 1066 IHC etc. Let's make kits for these in the future.
Most decent mechanics are workaholics because the pay is so shit for what you need to know and the amount of tools you have to buy to get the job done joybloggs in the street doesn't see that . No other trade seems to have to buy as many tools as a individual. Most trades the company you work for has bought them
Seems like the position of the turbo above the cylinder head is a design flaw that is the real cause for the headache. If it had been lower than the ports on the head then this problem wouldn't have happened. Nothing wrong with your job here, it's a John Deere design flaw.
I’d check the ID code on that 2nd injector; it should be “50C5...”, not “50CS...” - an “S” doesn’t fit the pattern. 😏 (a few minutes later) Never mind, the ECU found it! 😊
If i had my son at work with me he would be cleaning up the workshop making tea Doing all the Light jobs that he could do removing air boxes shit like that Great Video Warren Sounds Just like a Dirty Dere.
Do you think a KATO excavator will start after being completely submerged in water if not watch this video ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-JojqFqZMJ6I.html
