It's not usually fun being under a vehicle trying to diagnose problems, but you're pretty good at it. Now I know who to call...

That is really orange. Orange orange.

Well done sir. Darn rodents! No matter where you are they're going to try and make a home in your vehicle..

What grit are you using?

Good morning Justin ☕️☕️

Where do you purchase the steel for a project like this

Always love to see you working on this thing! Ok I’m gonna try and help ya out here: You’ve seen spark from the mag which is good, but it won’t jump the tester, which tells me your points probably need cleaned. I have had this exact problem, see spark on a plug but won’t fire. Sanding the points fixed the problem and the tractor fired right off. Your battery is in fact weak, but anytime you hear the magneto “click” it should fire regardless of how fast the engine is spinning. What I would do right now is jump your starter with a good 12V battery. All you need to do is ground the 12V battery with jumper cables close to the starter on the engine block, and then jump the positive straight to the starter terminal. I have done this several times in my videos, in my latest one you can see exactly how I do this. As long as you don’t crank for a real extended period of time the 6v starter will take it just fine. What jumping the starter is going to do is solve your slow crank problem, and that will also fix your compression issue. The engine is turning way too slow to get a good accurate compression reading, your losing it all to blow by past the rings, which every engine will have. The fact that it is moving the gauge at all turning that slow tells me that you don’t have a compression issue. So number 1, take the mag cap off and sand/clean your points. Once you do this check again for spark, if you have it then I bet she will run. Again the mag makes its own power so it’s independent of the battery. Once you have spark jump your starter with a good 12v battery and I bet she takes right off. Edit: watch my latest video of the cold start in the SC. At about 14:40 you can see how to jump it with 12v and jumper cables close

Justin, glad to see that you're working on the SC again. Yes, charge the battery so that it turns over a little faster and check compression again. Have all spark plugs out when doing this. You may also want to squirt some oil into each cylinder to help the rings to seal, since the engine hasn't run in a long time. However, given the very low numbers you've gotten so far, I suspect that something else is wrong, such as valves being stuck open. I would take the valve cover off and observe the valve and rocker arm action while you crank it. Even if they are all moving correctly, it may be that they are not seating/sealing well enough. Fixing this would, of course, require pulling the valve train and the head, and give it a valve job. As for the spark issue, don't worry about the 6-volt system. It has nothing to do with the spark. All of the spark energy is created within the magneto itself. Think of it as a small generator or dynamo in-and-of itself. Magnetos need to spin with some speed in order to create enough voltage to fire a sparkplug. During normal slow cranking, a built-in device called an 1impulse coupling makes the magneto spin quickly for 180 degrees of rotation for each spark event. This coupling is the ''snap' sound you hear when each cylinder is supposed to fire. Other causes of a no-spark condition would be bad plug wires, a magneto that is inadvertently grounded, or an internal problem with the mag like bad points, bad cap, rotor, etc. The wires you have look like they may be the automotive style that many times have a carbon center conductor, instead of a good old copper wire. If so, get rid of them;-- magnetos do not like them. If the mag is grounded, i.e., in a 'turn the engine off' condition, it will not produce spark. If you look at the back of the mag's cap, where the plug wires connect, you'll notice a small terminal stud with a nut near the bottom. There may also be a small copper strap that can be depressed to ground that terminal. Originally, there would have been a wire connected to the terminal that ran up to a switch on the instrument panel. You would turn off the ignition by pushing in the switch, or by depressing the copper strap right on the mag. If somehow this terminal is grounded, you';ll never get spark. If you are unable to get your mag to produce spark, I would suggest having it tested and serviced by someone that does that work. While I haven't had occasion to use them, look at rebuiltmags Kenny Kizzle recommends them on his channel.

Battery first!! Then wires,magneto!! Nice tractor!! just subscribed!!

I would start with charging your battery Justin I think that is your main culprit right now From there, I would go with the new wires And then on to the magneto from there. Good luck

I have a small battery maintainer that I just go from tractor to tractor during the winter months It is 12 volt only. Everything that I have now I have converted to 12 volt except my big guy, the 2520 John Deere. That has 2 - 6 volt batteries wired on series For that, I hook the maintainer up at the starter where it is 12 volt and it charges both batteries that way

Sorry Justin. I got interrupted and didn’t get only about 30 seconds into your video. I’m back now

Good morning Justin ☕️☕️

Thank you this was helpful as I’m having to pull the clutch to tear into the engine of a brand new HPX615

Good luck with yours mine didn't work out worth a crap so i smashed it up with my skid steer and dumbed it in the scrap pile.

My buddy had thst model for almost 20 years. He was a contractor. It held up pretty good. The switch doesn't last long.i borrowed it cople of years ago and did some work on it and it was running pretty good. Suggest you grease it good. I borrowed it this past summer to do a sidewalk on a rental. Had to do 20 bags of concrete. On the last bag the motor went. I told my buddy i would get him another one, but he said no. Habor Freight has a better model with a hard plastic tub that might be better.

I bought a similar type of mixer, cheap from a hardware store. I spent nearly 2 hours trying to get the blades inside the drum to lineup as the instructions made no sense. Sometimes it’s worth paying a little bit more than the cheapest possible, especially for something like this.

One step closer to starting your project. Exciting!

I bet it will hold up until you get your project completed. It sure beats mixing concrete in a wheelbarrow like I did for my small tool shed foundation. The paint will soon be covered up with concrete splatters 😀. I agree the paint job was sad and that it even got past any quality control checks - bet they don’t inspect, just box it up and ship it. Only concern is that the paint does not flake off in the drum and end up your finished project. It would be sad to see a bunch of flakes in your finished shop floor or patio.

New tool day!! Nice man.

Full watch Justin

Anything that you buy now, the directions are terrible Usually, they are just drawings I think the first thing a guy should do is wad the instructions up and throw them in the trash They make good fire starter

We still have no snow here Justin

Good morning Justin ☕️☕️

Watched this video at work today to fix the same issue. I work at Topgolf and we use them to do the field work. Watching your video made it easy. Thanks dude. Figured I owed a like and a follow.

Chucky2009 old UA-cam channel. Good vids

Buy a vevor

Eh, interesting video title to release considering what’s happening right now…

Good morning Justin, very nice, thanks for sharing 🐿😁👍 Have a great weekend, Ben 👋😎👍

The squirrel… 🤣🤣🤣

Good morning Justin ☕️☕️

Thanks!

Very satisfying to watch the time lapse burn. Thanks Justin!

I like the squirrel that exits the pile at 2:27. lol run buddy run!!

what size battery?

We have the same brand heater at work, just the 180k BTU version....Friday it decided it didn't want to fire back up after I shut it down to move it...had to take it apart and clean the photocell, and took the spark plug out and clean the contacts on it too. Put it back together and it fired right up. It works great when it works, but occasionally it don't want to fire up especially when its cold in the mornings since they whine about having the heat on in the warehouse it gets down to whatever temperature it is outside, so the diesel heater don't wanna start in the mornings either LOL. Haven't had to get any parts for our diesel heater yet, but at least you could get parts for it, but for how long who knows. We used a propane heater previously and it went through a lot of propane, you'd spend more time refilling propane cylinders than you would heating anything LOL. So the diesel heater was a nice upgrade although in a 9 hour day it'll go through a 13 gallon tank of diesel.

Good repair; I'm glad you could find parts

Holy flame thrower!! Dang, glad everything is okay.

Nice video. I have had the same one for about 15 years. I do use it very often each winter but have never opened her up. No maintenance ever. This was very helpful, thanks Justin.

Thanks!

Good morning Justin ☕️☕️

Great motivational video for someone looking to purchase their first tractor! Thanks!

I’m about to buy one. I prefer the chemical degreaser over the soap kind. Harbor Freight used to sell it in gallon containers

Looking good Justin, happy new year to you, Dayna and Caidance 👋😎👍

Full watch Justin. Happy New Year to you guys.

The ground sure looks different in the 2nd half of your video! 🤣

I see that you guys don’t have snow either. We did just long enough to give us a white Christmas.

Rad

Good morning Justin! ☕️☕️

Isn’t the driver side the left side ? For the L head gasket? Doing my head gaskets now but can’t figure out the left and the right 😂
