Thank you, Sir! I've been looking through the parts manual and seeing some of the differences. I'm excited to start working on it, if it ever warms up! Thank you for watching! I hope you have a good one

Thank you, Steve! I'm excited to start working on it if it ever warms up! I hope you have a good week, Sir!

It needs some work, but hopefully it won't be too bad. Hope you have a good one!

My grandpa ran Gleaners, he always liked them. I can’t remember if he ever had an E though. Thanks for watching, friend! Hope you have a good one!

Thanks Rusty!!! I was really glad that the Oliver started that well! I think the gleaner has spent most of its life inside. It definitely needs some work but I think it’s really solid. Hope you have a good week Rusty!!!

Thanks Nelson! I'm really excited about it! I really wasn't looking for one until you put your video up of bringing home Scott's combine. I looked on craigs list just for the heck of it and there it was, and for the price I thought I'd be a fool to pass it up. It actually has an electric pump on it already. The extra handle I'm not sure about yet. It does have a single hydraulic line on the left side of the feeder house, I don't know if it would have been for variable reel speed or reel height? Since I don't have the grain head I may never know. I was nervous as heck backing down off the trailer! I just made sure the wheels were straight, said a prayer and went for it LOL! The wife was aware that I was going to buy it, but the timing was hilarious to go buy stuff when she wasn't home 🤣🤣 I wanted to try to video the road trip a little but I had the boys with me but with the 3 of us and all their "stuff" in that regular cab, it just wasn't happening. They had fun though, and Sam the older one is really excited about the Gleaner. I wasn't going to name her but she came with a name, I'll tell what it is in the next video. I hope my grandpa is smiling, too, he was always a Gleaner man. Thanks for always watching and especially for encouraging, Nelson! Looking forward to seeing what you're doing next too! Hope you have a great week!

@evanaustin2636 That's awesome!! Can't wait to hear it!! Yes that line is for reel height, I'm pretty sure. Glenada has that. I can't wait to see what that handle does. I could t see, maybe it only has one horizontal handle where Glenda has 2. Doesn't matter I am so excited for you and the kiddos!! 😁😁

@ This one only has the one horizontal handle. The extra handle on the front isn't shown in any of the manuals, so I guess somebody has added it from a newer combine. Maybe it's in there somewhere and I just haven't found it yet? Thanks again, Nelson!

@evanaustin2636 I bet it's for header height and reel. Makes sense now, thank you sir!!! 😁😁

I filmed all this last week, it takes me a while to get a video together these days. She was traveling for work so I still had the boys. Tried to get all this done while they were at school but it didn’t work out. They went with me to go pick it up, the cab was pretty full! Thanks for watching, Ed!!! Hope you have a good one

Thanks Mike! My all crop has some tape on it too, it's definitely a life saver when you're in the field. I'm finally figuring out how to start the Allis when it's cold, I don't use it enough in the winter to remember how it wants to start. It will fire right away without any choke but it needs it to keep running. The Oliver wants choke all the time. I did not get a grain head, I found one online in Illinois, but I really need to get the picker sold before I spend more money. Sam is really excited about the Gleaner. He also wants to make sure I'm keeping the All Crop too, hopefully I can keep them both but we will see. Hope you have a good Sunday, Mike!

@@evanaustin2636 I think the Allis 125's and related engines may be the easiest starting engines of all time, even on 6 volts. 201/226's can be good too but the one in my NFE 45 is cantankerous. The electronic ignition parts got here this week, still need the bushing kit for the distributor. For diesels, a 400 series IH is hard to beat for cold starting.

@ I'm looking forward to seeing the conversion on yours! I hope it works out well. If there was a way to retrofit a GM HEI distributor onto these things I'd be all over it, those things just won't quit! But they're so damn big!!!

Thanks. It's a really good machine, it just isn't convenient for opening fields up. Thanks for watching, I hope you have a good one!

@evanaustin2636 I just saw you're from central Indiana in a comment. Born and raised in central Illinois. Left there 10 years ago.lol

Thanks Mike. I hope it sells without too much headache. The picker was local, only about 10 miles away from here when I bought it. It's still the only picker/sheller I've seen in person. Hope you have a good week, Mike!

Thanks Nelson! Yeah, it was cold yesterday, it was breezy and never made it above 18. Was 8 outside this morning. Pickers are still pretty easy to find up here with a husking bed on them. This is the only one I've ever seen in person that had a sheller. And it was only 10 miles from here when I bought it. Be safe out there Nelson, I hope you have a good one!

@@evanaustin2636 I should pay attention more to the obvious 🤦🏼🤦🏼🤣🤣🤣🤣 Bless me at times 🤦🏼

It would be quite a haul to get it across the Rockies LOL. I'm hoping to go this year, I haven't been to Rantoul yet. We'll definitely see a lot more of the Gleaner, she needs some work. Hope you have a good one, Rusty!

I hope so...the picker was ready to run, the gleaner needs some work...Hope you have a good one, Jack!

I'm in central Indiana. Bit of a drive from where you're at. Thanks for watching!

@evanaustin2636 dang, would sure be nice to have but a quick check on marketplace and there's a few in the area.

@ Yeah, they are awkward to transport, and at least with a husking bed they are still fairly easy to find

Thank you, Ed! It is a nice picker, hopefully it can find a good home. Thanks for watching, Sir!

It is really really cool. I hope they get if moved too, and in a way I'm glad it will be in a new place so that a different audience can enjoy it. I will miss it being close, it was only about 2 hours away. I hope you can get to see it when it is back together. Thanks for watching, Steve!

Thanks, Mike. My brother gave me the clock for my birthday, I thought it was pretty cool. Not sure if they make an Interapid version LOL. My dad has an HO scale layout in his basement, the boys really like running the trains at his house. I'll have to see if I can find those pictures on Red Power. Hope you have a good one, Mike!

Thanks Rusty! It is very, very impressive. I'm glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching, friend!

Thanks Ed! Hopefully they can get it moved and set up again ok so that more people can see and enjoy it. Thanks for watching, friend, hope you have a good weekend

Thanks Nelson! It seems to have sort of a rattle to it, but it always has so it probably isn't a big deal. Thanks for watching, Nelson! Hope you had a merry Christmas too!

I've been really impressed with that engine over the last 10 years. I never liked Kohlers but it has been a good one. Happy new year to you too Mike!

I hope so! Thanks for watching, Rusty! I hope you have a good one too!

Thanks Ed! It's always been noisier than I would like, but it keeps on going. I had thin oil in it too to get it primed quickly, it might sound better with some good 30w in it. Or it might not. Hope you have a good one, Ed!

Thanks Nelson! It's not the most elegant but it works. Those older guys could work miracles with engines. Thanks for watching, Nelson! Hope you have a good one!

Thanks Rusty! Hopefully next winter I can do this to the Oliver engine. Hope you have a good week!

Thanks, Mike!

It's all worth it when they run and work again. Thanks for watching, Ed!

Sorry Ed, I loaded this one as I was going to bed again.

Thanks Dan! I was going to call you if I didn't find anything close enough. Stay warm!

Thanks, Nelson! It's not a dumb question. I guess the best way I can explain it is that the metal doesn't really care what shape it is, so making a round piece out of a square is just cutting the corners down until what is left is round. I do have to spin the lathe to start it. The motor is going bad and it won't start itself anymore, it just hums unless you give it a spin before you turn the switch on. It's been that way for years, I just keep using it that way. I need to fix it one of these days. Thanks always for the kind words and the encouragement, Nelson! I hope you have a good week, friend!

@evanaustin2636 Thank you for thr explanation!!! I understand on the lathe, it's tired like us 😁😁

Thanks, Mike! As long as it will hold together, then I'm happy! Hope you have a good week!

Thanks, Ed! Not ideal, but it works well enough. Hope you have a good one as well!

Thanks, Rusty! I stocked up on steel a few years ago, the scrap yard that I bought steel from was going out of business so I went and bought about 600 lbs of random sized scrap pieces, LOL. Still don't always have what I need though🙄🙄

Let's make sure it actually runs again...

Thanks, Mike. I think the root of this problem was overheating. I had cooling fins get plugged up a couple years ago and it got pretty hot, it's acted weird ever since. It started this season running ok enough but it got to where I can't control it anymore. Overall it's been a good engine. I'm a Briggs guy but I was very impressed with this one. I wondered if any of your Cubs had this engine. Hope you have a good one, Mike!

@@evanaustin2636 They made those engines in three series. First ones had oiling issues. The series two were pretty good, that's what all of mine are. The third series added a filter, better yet. Those DA mowers seem like pretty good machines. I'd have a hard time sending a good one down the road.

@@MikeJensen-wo7oh My dad worked in a mower shop when the first series KT17's were out. He said they had a pile of them, all with broken connecting rods. You're right, the series 2's are pretty good engines. I don't really want to sell it, but the boss doesn't want a bunch of mowers around for some reason. If I hide it in the shed well enough maybe she won't know it's still here...

Thanks, Nelson! I don't know about sharp, even a blind squirrel finds a nut sometimes! I love those garden tractors, this is identical to a Simplicity 7117. Hopefully I can get to doing the valves this weekend. I guess the good news is that there are 2 cylinders so I have 2 chances to press the record button 🙄🙄 I don't think you missed any, this is the first video of this particular disaster. Thanks for watching and all the support, Nelson! Hope you have a great week as well!

I've only done it one other time, probably 20 years ago. I had trouble getting the crankcase halves separated this time because I missed a bolt. There aren't any gaskets between the halves, either, you use anaerobic gasket sealer on them. I'm hoping this takes care of the problem, the engine is a little tired but it's always ran really well. Thank you for watching, Rusty! I hope you have a good one!

I could have sworn that I pushed it, either I didn't hit it right or I just had a brain fart and forgot. Oh well. Not the first time I've screwed up, and it won't be the last time either! Hope you have a good one, Ed!

Howdy, Ed. Actually working on your video right now

@evanaustin2636 perfect 👍

Thanks Nelson! I'm not sure that it's satisfying, so much, as it is a huge relief that the pipe was actually the problem. I've been worried all this time that I missed something and that it would still leak, but thank goodness it's fixed! We did get maybe 2 or 3 inches of snow today. It's supposed to be in the 40's tomorrow and 50's by Sunday so it won't last long. Our winters aren't too harsh compared to what they get farther North. Thanks for watching, Nelson! I hope you have a good one!

@evanaustin2636 😁😁👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻❄️❄️

Thanks Mike! Just in time is right!

Thanks Ed! It feels good to have that finished! Hope you have a good one!

Evening Rusty. Did you get any of the wind today?? It sure did a lot of damage along the coast and West side of Washington.

Yes it is! I've been worried since I started working on it that I was fixing the wrong thing. So I'm VERY relieved that it's fixed! I woke up to a dusting of snow outside this morning. The ground is still pretty warm here so it won't last long. Hope you have a good one, Rusty!

@@GosselinFarmsEdGosselin Hi Ed, not much here, it was just breezy, i heard there was lots of damage, 80 mph winds, sheesh!

Smoke may have worked on the old pipe, it isn't filled solid like the new one is. It just has a couple layers of bubble wrap around the pex pipes. The house was empty for 2 winters before we bought it, and the whole boiler system froze. It didn't hurt the boiler itself but I had to replace a bunch of parts to get it going and I've been waiting for the lines to go the whole time we've been using it. Hopefully the new ones will outlast my desire to cut wood, LOL. Thank you for watching, Steve! I hope you have a great week!

Thanks, Nelson! Yeah, I didn't really know what I was doing and then hitting that stupid root right off the bat was not a great start, LOL! Those darn cats...you need some cats? I'll ship you some...Jack needs some friends 🤣🤣 The weather has been really mild so far, I can't complain at all about that. And we did get some rain last week so that softened things up for digging 👍👍I'm hoping to get it finished up this weekend. Thanks again, Nelson! I hope you have a great week too!

@evanaustin2636 😁😁😁😉👌🏻👌🏻

That stinks. Not much you can do with that, "easier" to just run a new line. But definitely not easy. I'm glad this didn't have to be that deep. Hopefully I can get it finished up next weekend. Hope you have a good week, Rusty!

It wasn't a great time. The boys sure loved the dirt though. Especially on Sunday after it rained Saturday night. They are very drawn to mud. Will be looking forward to part 4! Thanks for watching, Mike! Hope you have a good one

Ain't that the truth! Ugh, I think yours sounds worse than mine. Hope it isn't too horrible to get done

Thanks, Ed. Yeah, the conditions could have been a lot worse. And we had a good rain last week so that made the digging a lot easier. I'm not sure if you buried a bigger pipe if you would be able to pull this stuff through it. It doesn't flex very well. That's why I ended up hacking out the sheet metal on the back of the boiler, it wouldn't flex enough to line up and go through the hole underneath. Hopefully this will outlast my desire to cut wood... Thanks for watching, Ed! Hope you have a good one

@evanaustin2636 big electric cable is pretty stiff too.. lol When you get tired of cutting wood, is when you convert it to a diesel/oil boiler.. still need the hose.. Just a thought 🤔
