Will it Start? 50 YEAR OLD Lift Needed TODAY !!! 

One of the things I love about old diesels is that they can sit for years at a time and still start right up with a little coaxing.

I love those old all terrain forklifts. Good job Wily! Thank you for sharing

Timing, fuel, compression! Works every time!

Wiley epitomizes southern hospitality and really what Americana is all about !!

Love to watch ya Wiley, I'm born and raised in McDowell County WV, but now in Martinsville Va., but we are the same people, keep on keeping on buddy

That forklift is very very old and take care and God bless

That old tractor runs good👍🍮😎

Would be a handy thing to have around the place. I remember a similar smaller version in the apple orchards that was basically a ford ag tractor turned around with a mast on the back.

The diesel whisperer strikes gold again 👍🚜😁

Unusual looking forklift Wiley, took some time to start it up. That is the oldest forklift i have ever seen. Awesome video Wiley 👍 👍👍👍

Wily, you need one of these as a general tool like your Crescent Wrench. Just pick stuff up and move it so it's easier to work on 😁

Excellent job Wily!! Runs very nice!!!

Amazing Willy Good job🎉

Thanks for another great video and Wiley. It was interesting and entertaining. That engine is a ford industrial type motor. Quite the old fork lift. Basic machine with basic controls. Sure has got huge extensions on the forks. Surprised you got it to run plus move and operate. The engine runs real smooth. Believe the engine is a good one. With some TLC and fixing it can be useful yet for some one. Good job Wiley!!!!’ Another one you got to run and operate. Thanks Wiley. The Iowa farm boy. Steve.

That is outstanding bush craft, you done it without even cutting down a single bush. Great job Wily.

Once again Wiley you have amazed me with your talent and skill Thank you sir for sharing this old ford relic coming back to life Looking forward to seeing your next adventure until then May Gods Blessings be with you and your family always

Wiley another successful start!

Awesome video, Wiley. It's a pretty nice forklift, Wiley. I appreciate you, buddy 👍

Amazing start up after setting so long gotta love the old equipment they were built robustly and near bullet proof. Amazing job getting it going..😎🇺🇸👨‍🔧🚜😇

Wily to the rescue.

Well done team . Thank you Wiley.😅

Very nice job and God bless y'all

I want that little pontoon boat

Another Excellent Video Wiley

Excellent video Wiley :) , Jacob :) oldest Forklift was Farmall (McCormick International) model M basic with wide front end not Row crop but was great Grandfather then his 3 boys used in Top second floor on barn my great Uncle Truman farm plus for Slaughter house lift cows or pigs on pulley system 2 Butcher spots ! Then in 1984 was sold Farmall Forklift to a another famillies business at Slaughter House building then 2010 was sold again not sure it to ! But heard $5.000 went for when my Grandfather sold and next family bought sold for $ 3.200 need new tires plus brakes also clutch I heard and after that about ! I remember my great Uncle Arnold my grandfather Haroold middle brother said that Farmall performance very well and did lots hard work in days they had it never had problems with it!

All right! Those fellas from Mexico are a hard working bunch.

Good show Wiley, keep it up 👍👍

So I was in Wiley TX today and I was wondering if don't be Wiley would post a video today and bam there it is. Great job Wiley.

I'm glad to see the tractor up and running again good job Wily

Wiley glad to see it start it sure did put a smile on your face.Thats always good to see.KEEP them videos coming I need my dose of DON'T BE WILY 😂 ,!!

Whew Wiley too close to the truck ! Great to see it running again and working ! Looks like the fella with the trailer has got a lot of driving to do hope he gets there ok!

Well you did a great job! The thing you are able to get it running!

Wiley that thing looks terrible. Hope you get that running.

Hello wily I said it before I will say it again you and my father are one your right with things made simple no bull simple those guys know the equipment they bought will run forever some spit baling wire your set thank you very much you bring me back to yesterday you bring back memories with my father I thank you

Yeah, those snakes were coming out of everywhere, Wiley! 😮😮😮🤣😂🤣😂

Nice work.

Awesome video Wiley!!

As you were first trying to move it I'm thinking 'there has to be a stuck brake' or worst 'stick axle' because it wasn't even trying to budge. Once that brake was released it was like it was set free and off it went to work!! Maybe could stand a little paint here and there, but it looked to be working pretty well for going straight from nearly abandoned to back to work in such a short time!

You the man thanks!

Nice old tractor F/lift dodgy lookin load a real back roads load as we call em here in Australia 😅😅😅😅 Have a great day Wiley Kym Adelaide

good job Wily!

DAMN! Just look at that trucks rear axle! I'd be surprised it made it to Mexico without breaking shackles, springs, or something! Wow!

Slick running machine

Looks like a 256CI Ford industrial motor. Before you start it, give it throttle and mash the button in the stop lever on the injection pump. Looks like the date stamp started with a 2 so, 1972 or 1982.

I would rather light a candle than curse your darkness friend but one of those battery chainsaws with the twelve inch bar would be perfect for your situations. I saw you toting the Echo with the Mack video and that's a bit much. Nice to see you cranking on the Fortrrss compressor, God bless harbor freight,

loving the videos

That trucks on the bump stops

this video was fun to watch cause the cool ans slow happening.

Good luck buddy be careful

Wiley I think 🤔 you can get it to run 🏃 you have a great day

Wiley does it again. Super

Love it

Nice! If you got fuel and compression she will start! Thank Rudolf Diesel for that!

Awesome

Hello Wily. I am kind of wondering if the rollers inside the track may be worn down to the point that once the mast gets to that certain height that they either pop out of track or maybe the mast is that worn. Even So, That machine is still very handy to keep around. That engine sounds amazingly good to have been sitting idle for so long.

ITS A FORD THATS WHY IT STARTED RIGHT UP JD WOULD HAVE NOT! FORD KNOWS HOW TO BUILD THINGS ITS FORD💪💪💪💪💪💪🤟👍 MY BLOOD RUNS BLUE FORD BLUE!

All the pickups need to be way way away from equipment that will if start vlogs, that old equipment has no fillings at all about tearing up a pretty pickup, lol😢thanks buddy BigAl California.

That machine was the pre cursor to the modern forklift

👏👍

Definitely got a death trap rigged up on that trailer

Thank you for your APPRECIATION to your subscribers Wily😅

Got Er dun again 😊

👍

moteur Ford

Too bad the Massey Ferguson 165 didn't find a home locally.

Ford tractor backwards to me!

Dont worry about the width.

Yeah, those weeds will take over everything!

definatly a ford engine!

nothing wrong with that fork lift Wily

That looks like a boat lift

One of these days you are going to get someone hurt really bad or killed! This might explain why you are not doing work with Hank

That was a homemade folk lift machine.

It's ugly but it looks like a good peace of equipment

kinda sound like a 990 david brown motor

Wiley The Desiel Whisperer

Yall didn’t bring a chainsaw, Wiley?

New Holland?

🤝👍👍👍😉✌️

Thats a ford industrial diesel. My boss has a forklift with the same engine

DID YOU BUY THIS??

Wats happening to you and Hamilton

That truck of there's looks over loaded best stay off speed bumps with that load keep it under 55mph

That's a Detroit

What would these fellows have done if that old high lift wasn’t there or refused to start. You ain’t man-handling that load! Wiley done his part but the loading and makin it fit on the trailer was their problem to solve. 🥸👍👀✅
