this poor old thing sat outside all of its life! in this video I attempt to get it going, the problem is this trimmer is so old half of the parts are not manufactured anymore so should I repair it or should I part it out?

That draft enducer motor is definitely noisy! Those flames are very nice and blue! Great startup
It's not as noisy in person though. In comparison last year it was worse, So the fix has helped a little. Now because of the new thermostat changes It's less likely to run during the daytime So in this video I intentionally made it run By turning up the thermostat to 72. Now that's fine because Running it for an extended period of time Will show me that I can trust it and I won't be wrenching on it in the middle of winter when heats actually needed.
This thing really stank when I first ran it. The funny thing is that we're now back to using air conditioning again.
@@seantheenthusiast9234 I’m using my ac right now but that’s because my brother decided to turn the heat to 75 and claimed he only did to 72! (Only my bedroom AC) But it ran like a 25 minute cycle to go from 70-75. My furnace didn’t have a stinky smell it just had a slight dusty smell but not burning or anything. Most likely just some dust in the air return vents and needing a new filter for the season
@@seantheenthusiast9234 The cameras always either don’t pick it up or do too much. My thermostat jumps a degree when it’s finished hit that’s fine because it gets a break in between cycles. My house isn’t very insulated so it drops a bit faster than other houses
@@seantheenthusiast9234Also I didn’t see one speck of an orange flash. Your heat exchanger on the inside must be pretty clean. And you have a great skill for cleaning burners. Your CO levels it produces must be pretty low maybe 4-5
One good thing I notice is that the water temperature signals on the water lines aren’t melted, which usually when it backdrafts those are deformed completely
(Assuming you are talking about the WH) Well, that's double wall around it So you can have something within six inches around it. The double wall doesn't get quite as hot as single wall.
@@seantheenthusiast9234 I accidentally commented it since I clicked on the wrong video lol but yeah
The lines look like they are touching the flu pipe, but they're actually not. It's just a botched install from whoever did the first or second water heater install.
@@seantheenthusiast9234 I know that, but if you look directly beside it on top of the water heater around each line you’ll see 2 colored plastic rings that melt when it backdrafts those are
@@seantheenthusiast9234 Temps are starting to get pretty cold here I catch the heat running every morning now
That venting does not meet code. Water heater venting should never go in a downwards slope. My old water heater had that and my new water heaters venting is better and vents properly now. Could you make a video showing the full venting to where it goes out the chimney?
The venting is not part of my work. I just reused it. I'm not really sure if it was the person doing the 2008 install or if that's the original venting. I'll show you though once Everyone's asleep.

Love the way these units are designed. Very easy to work on
I agree
Can you tell me which wire goes to which terminal on the detector? Please
Sure! Are you installing one or multiple detectors on the same circuit? The reason why I'm asking this because The wiring configuration may be different if you're installing more than one.
I am installing one detector
I have the exact same detector as you installed.
Okay so the two terminals wires on the unit negative and positive will connect to the aux power output terminals on the panel. Terminal 4 (on the alarm panel) is the negative, and terminal 5 is the positive. The other 2 Two wires Are for the zone You're gonna be connecting it to. The C terminal on the detector which is common is gonna go to the hi side of the zone (on the panel). The NO terminal on the detector Which stands for normally open will go to the low side (on the panel). For example: If I were to connect this detector to zone 6, The low side will be terminal 16 while the hi side will be 17. You'll need to put resistors on the circuit for it to work properly. What I did is I Spliced the wire into the high side of the zone And then I put a crimp connector on the end of the wire, Then I put A resistor on the end of that crimp connector and connected it to the terminal on the board. Then I put a second resistor on the detector, That Resistor goes to NO and T which is trouble. I hope this helps you out. I Can post a photo on my youtube page if you need further help.
Lifesaver thank you
😢 I miss the vortex
Me too
I just expected thr tabs not to load and it'll just say something but it is removed and maybe should of saw that coming, but it looks the same as it always does when your offline. I forgot taking away the market would take away most of the dashboard.
Yeah that's what I thought too but I didn't expect them to update the dashboard to look like that
@@seantheenthusiast9234 yeah exactly, I'm still., happy online multilplayer can still works, as longs as the company supports it. Wish things lasted forever but never do.
I like it👈, that the same amount of pulls it takes to start my trimmer.
Yeah it's been the best trimmer I've ever owned, I readjusted the carburetor again and sometimes it'll start on the first pull.
You got the same one too?
the 360 store should have stayed considering all things are going digital and also streaming
Well the problem with that is the sales would eventually decline so they would have to shut it down anyways. I just wish they would give you the option to switch dashboard versions at least. That would be awesome!
I also like elevators
Same
I had a 4 stroke verison of that weed trimmer and it was a piece of junk i even ran ethonel free gas in and had nothing but problems
Yeah I agree, I think all MTD trimmers are worthless when it comes to selling them too because once you buy one brand new you're kind of stuck with it unless you throw it in the garbage, or sell it for free or at a low price. It was very difficult to sell this one because everybody knows to stay away from these trimmers. I had another MTD trimmer that was older, and it was becoming expensive to keep it alive, so I gave it away instead of selling it because I knew that it was worthless at that point. I have since got myself an older Echo trimmer, and I love it! 👍
SADLY IT SOUNDS LIKE A MIX BETWEEN THE ELDORADO AND ESCALADE FROM FH3!!😢😢
Love that blower sound! Great filter too
Yeah so far the expensive filter is holding up. A little foam came off on the edge but it's doing alright 👍
@@seantheenthusiast9234 The amount of discoloration on my heat exchanger though makes me worried about the air flow to it, I feel it’s not normal for it to have that much discoloration already
Well like I said before, the blower speed is programmable so you can change it if that makes you feel better
@@seantheenthusiast9234 I just don’t understand why it would be incorrectly set from the factory. What do you think of the amount of discoloration and stress marks seen on my heat exchanger?
Each house is different, so sometimes you need to set it to a different speed to get the most out of your furnace. Now, unless the heat exchanger is burnt, I wouldn't be worried too much about it. What does it look like now? Can you post a new photo of it?
I don’t know what it is about old trane blower motors starting up but it’s so nostalgic when I used to have the trane during heating season
PSCs for life 👍
@@seantheenthusiast9234 If my motor ever went out, I would probably use a ECM to PSC modification on it, since i’m pretty sure it’s possible with an additional PCM board kit
Yeah Quik Products sells a kit you can get for 20 bucks
R.I.P 😢
RIP
Dang, we had a tornado warning a month ago, it was crazy outside!
Did you guys have a real tornado rip through your neighborhood?
@@seantheenthusiast9234 Nah, but it was crazy
Windy?
@@seantheenthusiast9234 Very
That's crazy, normally it's quiet over here when we get a tornado warning. At one time we did have a real tornado rip through our neighborhood at 2 in the morning and it was moving our patio stuff around. The wind was so loud I could not hear the sirens and we didn't have power until the next day. Surprisingly our house didn't take any damage at all!
Thats awesome I love sirens
Yeah man it's a pretty cool system. Got a few 2001s, a fedelcode model 5, a sterling m10, and a 508
@@seantheenthusiast9234 hey this is axo btw on an alt
I was checking out some videos you posted and was wondering, how often does your heat come on and run for every average day during heating season? Mine comes on like every 15 minutes and runs for 5-10
That's roughly how often mine would run, 20 minutes or so
BTW I will not be replacing the draft motor this year. I lost my recent job again so I need to save my money I'm kinda being a cheapskate at this point. So far it sounds fine so I'm gonna leave it alone
@@seantheenthusiast9234 Oh that’s sucks, sorry about that, but yeah as long as it’s going don’t replace it
@@seantheenthusiast9234 Is it normal for a furnace like mine to already have the discoloration and stress marks?
Yeah that's normal, any furnace will do that
Can y'all play online after the shutdown?
Yeah you can still play online, it's just the store that's gone
The dashboard looks so empty now. It’s a sad day for Xbox
It is
I juat discovered that if you disconnect your 360 from the internet, you'll get the store tab back
@@seantheenthusiast9234wait does it work
It does but you can't go into the store when you're not connected, but when you reconnect the store tab disappears again, so I guess that's the only way to keep the store on your dashboard
@@seantheenthusiast9234 oh ok
the xbox 360 looks different now because of the marketplace shutdown
Yeah it feels so empty now, I wish they gave you the option to switch dashboards at least
@@seantheenthusiast9234hey look on the bright side no clutter
That's true it does look a little more sleek
NOOOOOO AHHHH
Hey go and search spider man 3 game and gamer picture and let's see what you can find
Hey i was wondering, can i play resident evil 5 or 6 with my friend? ( He with the ps3 and i with the 360)
Ps3 And XB360 unfortunately are not crossplay.
@@duckie8522 thanks for the info budd
@@mohammedlking4184 no problem!
Do you plan on getting a new panel?
Nope, this is the last panel that this house will ever need unless it fails
I still have the original panel laying in my basement I might take it with me when I move out. The only problem is it only supports landline to communicate and nobody around me uses that technology anymore so the best I can do is use it as an offline system so where's the fun in that ya know? I could sell it too but I don't think I'm going to get a whole lot out of it because it's a 20-year-old panel
Yay a new test video!
The siren: "AAA HAHAHA"
This one hasn't sounded in 10 years so that's why it sounded like that, it sounds normal now.
Oh nice, my siren hasn't been sounded in over 13 years so it scared me when I actually set the panel off 😅 @seantheenthusiast9234
I wondered if it sounded like mine
It did@@seantheenthusiast9234
@@seantheenthusiast9234also Mt comment keeps deleting itself
My wave 2 sounds just like that :)
Nice is that a Chinese carb I have same one with Chinese carb that takes 4 pulls to start
Nope this is the oem carb on it. This is actually the second one that's on it, The original one had bad internal check valves on it, So It wouldn't work at all. This oem zama carburetor I bought for 40 bucks And with a little bit of tuning Has been running well ever since.
Is it easy to pull I have same one and it is easy to pull I’m scared of it is worn
Yeah, this one's pretty easy to start, too. I guess if you're talking about compression, I mean you feel all of it when you pull on it slow. This one doesn't seem to be worn out, and it fires on the first pull almost every time.
Nice
Thanks! This thing is still going strong!
I do own a heat detector but its like those very vintage ones
Yeah, I do like keeping things as original as possible. Half of the stuff is still original in the system right now. I don't think I'm going to replace the heat detector, I think it's one of those mechanical ones with the solder in the middle that melts and sucks the disc in, so I think there really is no need to replace it if it's one of those kinds. It's better than one of those electronic ones, I'm sure. I did look up the model on the manufacturer's website and it appears they stopped making it.
@@seantheenthusiast9234 yea, i own 2 channels which are @IknowJim_Object and @FLworkshop but the first channel which is my main I post object stuff and weather but my 2nd channel flworkshop I post weather and honeywell and soon smoke detectors
Apparently long exposure tk honeywell sirens and firealarms can cause hearing damage
Yeah that's definitely true.
How many volt it the wave 2 use
12
@@seantheenthusiast9234 thank
Well I think my honda odysseys transmissions done lol it’s not shifting right. But this was a nice test drive! I want to drive my dads pilot so bad lol
How many miles are on it again? (The van)
@@seantheenthusiast9234 220k It turned out to be leaking transmission fluid
Oh okay. Yeah that'll do it for sure. Speaking of that has the transmission fluid been changed?
@@seantheenthusiast9234 Never been touched
Wow
i always loved the first day of turning the a/c on, it felt more special than christmass for me
Same here!
What’s so funny is how this video was yesterday with similar climate to my area and I’m sitting here right now a day later with the furnace on
Yeah. There are a couple more cold nights left of the week where I might need to switch it back to heat mode.

Today I was cleaning the house and I found the original manuals and guides for the furnace. It was in a wooden box next to the furnace. I couldn't find anything for the outdoor unit but I found a bunch of other goodies in that box like the water softener, dryer, washer, stove, refrigerator, microwave, and dishwasher manuals. I also found the original warranty certificate for the old Rheem water heater, as well as an old unbranded owner's manual I don't know if it's for the rheem or if it's for the first water heater that went in this house. It's pretty cool seeing all this stuff.
@@seantheenthusiast9234 That’s pretty cool, if my basement had everything removed but the appliances I would probably find a lot.
Do you still have all the manuals from the past appliances?
