Nissan Diesel Swapped Oliver OC-3, Twice the Power! (if it runs)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 25 жов 2023
- This Oliver crawler loader popped up for sale, and I had to buy it because it was cheap. When I looked at it, I discovered that it was really unique, because someone swapped in a SD22 Nissan diesel 4-cylinder with half of the transmission from a 720 pickup truck. This is my kind of toy!
The original Hercules IXB-3 gas engine produced 29 hp at 1700 rpm, and the gearing in the OC-3's transaxle was known to be too high. The new (80's) 2.2L diesel should put out 61 hp at 4000 RPM, and with the half-transmission reduction it will have plenty of torque. Now I just need to make it work... - Авто та транспорт
One thing I love about Low Buck Garage video's, you get a vehicle or project and when you find bits or parts missing, you are not phazed. You carry on and get to making it right. Other people seem to be a bit down about stuff like that.
That's so true! I love his attitude.
Today I had to weld my exhaust on and change the sump on my truck but watching lowbuck gives me relaxation because he's never phased by anything!
@@JesusThineBeTheGlory i bet the people leaving planned parenthood you accosted would like relaxation too, funny about that
@@majesticskeever Sorry I have no idea what you're on about. I'm English and live in Great Britain. We do not accost people here:
@JesusThineBeTheGlory I think majestic is another troll.
Ja, I noticed that too..
Watching Musti1 completely changed the way I look about wrenching now. He just laughs at everything that goes wrong and goes on. My dad was a man that always shouted and got angry when stuff did not work first try. Needless to say that I avoided learning anything from him after a while. It took me a long time to shake this negativity off. Nowadays, I allow myself more badshit goes wrong, and there is SO much more fun about that! You get tons of stuff done by being only 80% good at it, instead of waiting till you got 99% perfected. Making old machines run and then driving around with it just for shits and giggles... That's what's it all about.😁
" Let's ignore that for now" ...
" We just call that good" ..
" Its weird having New stuff"
Most relaxing Motto for Life I've ever heard😂😂😂
My great grandfather was a fixer at the Oliver plant in Charles City Iowa for his entire working career. I like to think a little of the tinkering bug is genetic, from him.
That threaded pipe joint is almost 100% for a jib boom ….. looks like they used 2-7/8”s just get a joint of 2-7/8” drill stem and thread it into the joint and cut to your desired length letting you lift stuff higher than the loader frame can lift … while also increasing leverage and the center of gravity and possibly flipping the machine over. It’s fine..
My tractor has a pipe on the top of the bucket just like that. It is for lifting and moving fifth-wheel RV trailers.
The mechanical humor is epic! Opening up someone else's can of worms is always an eye-opener and good for a few laughs.
I have always really liked your saying James. "I wasn't having fun, so I knew I was doing wrong"...
Hi, love the Wide Receiver speed to get to throttle lever at start up,, haha. Many thanks from UK. Really enjoy ALL your uploads.
Ah automotive education, an adventure of its own kind, a fascinating one, learning about past engineering and vehicular construction.
That's an awesome little rig! And it has to be the least amount of work you've had to do to get a new project running. And that makes it even more fun because now you've got some real incentive to keep going.
this great little tool found the right home for some loving. new to channel, I love it. Your sense of humour ticks all the boxes for entertainment, which is why I'm watching back to back videos to catch up on you. thanks again for great video
Who knew having a real sized Tonka toy could be so much fun! I can see the little boy in you as you imagine filling that dumper truck - great video😃😃😎😎
I think those were Maintenance Bees doing some general upkeep on your Nissan engine... Looks like they did a good job keeping it alive. You should take them on as staff.
Love the videos man keep them coming ❤❤
I second that...
@@daveapplequist4873I third it!🤣😂
Is this the right time to say "Ditto"
🖖😎
Left, right, forward, backward, up, down... Win!
looks like a fun project to strip all the way down and paint it all and make it look and work like new
My 2 cyl Isuzu diesel tractor uses that throttle plate as the shut down. You throttle down the engine to idle and then starve it for air until it stops. Detroit diesels had an emergency shut down damper in case the fuel rail got jammed or it started running on oil from broken turbo seal.
On this Nissan that throttle body feeds a vacuum signal to the injection pump...it controls the quantity of the fuel being injected.
@@JohnSmith-pl2bk Thats very interesting, thank you.
So.......what are you going to use this for? If you are like me, you would say "I'll find something to do with it"! Cool little machine, glad you got it up and running without too much trouble.
Another great video , I don't understand, his subscription should be in the millions
A lot of YT vids have analytics that show 30% of the people who regularly watch...are subscribed!
Now since he has 58k subscribers...add 70% to that and we have a theoretical 193k regular watchers....
153k can't be bothered simply clicking "subscribe".....
I had one of those,it was heavily worn out but i replaced whatever i could..the engine finally quit so i put an engine/trans a flathead 4cyl from 46 willys cj2a
18:36… “let me attach my new handle”. I was thinking that I have those same handles.
In see those old dozers like that for sale once in a while. I wondered if parts for the undercarriage are available or you need to buy a donor one for parts
Well Big Mike, you got yourself a nice piece of machinery for scrap price! It's been neglected for sure so just take it 1 piece at a time & slowly replace parts. You'll have some fun w/ it. Having been on an 8 N tractor 55 of my 71yrs I noticed your 3 point hitch articulates as it goes up & down. That's very unique. And the attachment appears to be a '' Plow Pan Buster". So I can certainly see why it came out of a field. Back befor bigger gas & Diesel tractors were prevalent a crawler was probably the only way to pull a pan buster, but like you said that crawler had too high of a low gear, and model A tranny's became scarce, so upgrading to 2Xhp was the next best thing. I wonder how well it worked out. 2 Cycle's lend to supercharging easily if you don't get crazy. Just add a small turbo & Voila'. Ha! Fine video Mr. Buck. Thanks for showing off your find. ben/ michigan
This a a "normal" 4 stroke diesel engine.
I own one of these,pull that cover off the end of the final drive sprocket and check the lug nuts/bolts. They like to back off and sheer off and you can't see then with the dust cover on.
Two Thumbs-up, u got the motor to run.
This is way too cool! the threaded pipe is to use as a lift boom.
Love your analytic approach to help determine how much fun awaits 😅
Have fun and enjoy
I respect your pragmatic approach. You organize problems from urgent to minor & tackle them 1 @ a time. Assessing as you go & sometimes reorganizing the list......cant wait for the next 1......
I am obsessed with the old green camper bus you moved.....
The bucket looks like it was made to scrape up cow manure. It's golden.....
Dang I do t really like to comment on videos but this was just to cool . I absolutely love old mechanical stuff in this manner especially when someone is gonna refurbish it for actual work.
I love that ol Oliver, nice feild/ barn find,😮thanks buddy thanks BigAl California
Please do a video showing the whole fleet please.
That's a great project hope to see more of it in the future ,it reminds of your dad's little loader.
Looks like you got one semi comfortable human meat grinder. Makes it more interesting👌
What a cool little machine! Very unique, and with its little modern quirks, it is more powerful and you can find parts, like you said (and already did!). I think it would be very worthwile to go the full mile. New hoses, etc.. We all know you will! It will be awesome to watch you fix
this up as well as the camper bus roof. Your channel has to "explode" soon, so to speak. I hope the best for you, my "top five" UA-cam channel author!! 👍🤩💥
Oh no!! Hes digging a pond!!! 👍👍
Had one at a job years back. Cracked block with a catch can. Was a useful and loyal machine
Can't wait to see more of this! The sd engines are durable, no timing belt no chain, all gears. For sure the cast iron head is a nice thing too. It's great to see one of them in something like this!
Yes, yes, certainly a work of Art. Maybe the two of you can meet up some day...
You have a good buy there, Go right through with this project and I believe you will have a great winner the punters will be biting your hand off for this
My brother had a company board f250 pickup truck, late '60s, brand spanking new from Ford to the dealer, they took out the Ford engine and put in a Datsun 4 cylinder diesel so they could use it underground in the limestone quarry. They had to install the slave cylinders for the clutch or it would creep through a stoplight intersection. Oh what a truck.
It’s been 10 days 👍waiting for a new video
Its oddball machines that find love here on youtube. Thats what brings me here....lol....
This cool dude would totally win Monster Garage if it was still on
Watching you run to lower the throttle cracks me up 😂 I can feel the urgency in your body language
3 minutes in and i love this. I like the way Art thinks!!
this video is amazing
had a OC 3 that had been cobbeled severely. Straught dozer but came with a home made bucket and hoe bucket. Cracked piston but finally got it to run a little. Also it over heated in reverse. It would die an not start for days. It had a seized Hyster winch that was 4 sizes too big. I finally sold it to go to college (at 39) had three HG models too. One was a Cletrac, about 1939. They were all fun.
Thanks, i wish you are my Boss.
See you working, looks realy chill, and smart…
Have fun, i will thanks to you..😁😉
I like this dozer and the work you did to get it started and figuring out how to make control works. Change all tubes weld all cracks on bucket. and this machine needs a real paint job. I know you listed all things necessary first but this girl deserves a new dress. Amen
Sweet little piece of the old days. Well done to the guy that did the engine swap it worked out nice.
Another long awaited and much anticipated video! Thanks LBG
Amazing that you found out about the extra transmission and all.. SO much to know about everything!!!! Cool tractor!
Excellent video Glenn :) also be interesting on that Oliver dozer was used on farm for Tile Drains feilds bleeding water out to septic tanks put trench then hoses to from hole in bucket for pipe and John Deere pick to on back ! Motor I know of Oliver used was Oshkosh in 4 and 6 cylinders gas or desiel motor like farm tractors had ! Also be cool see more on video's fix up Oliver Glenn and also used to possibly to! Also I know most Desiel motor turn key to on postion then push throttle to 1/4 on , glow plugs handle or button on for 30 seconds to 1 min then start button till fires let off glow plugs switch and start switch on starter! Then let warm for 10 mins ! Also some head lights plus cab fenders lights be cool put on see at night uses! Also roof plus roll cage too ! Hose are drie rotting called it Glenn should be fix up too agree or big showers of hot oil not fun ! But did well buy on it I say hopefully will seen more working on it! You like projects too Lol !
The later Nissan 2.7TD that the USA never got has an extra water temperature sensor on the thermostat housing.
The glow plugs turn on when you switch the key to the "run" position before starting it....and when the light goes out you can start the engine
(I usually don't even have enough time to buckle my seat belt after turning on the key to the "Run" position until the glow plug light goes out and I turn the key to "start" ...which it does instantly)
Then the sensor controls the glow plug relay and intermittently gives the glow plugs current until the coolant temp reaches 50C...which makes sure the engine keeps running and doesn't stall even on the coldest days)
then switches the system off until the next start.
Fully automatic Nissan system (from 1987 on)
Cool Oliver dozer!
Funny stuff AND I'm not the only person who repurpose old socks for rags !
That loader is going to be a fun new project. I cant wait to see the great videos come out from it.
Really cool machine! In good condition too it seems.
I put the same engine in my 743 bobcat
Does it use that vacuum pump for power brakes?'
If it does and you run out of brakes there are two sizes of vacuum pump...the 30cc and the 50cc.....
using the wrong one on a road going vehicle gets exciting in the hills when you run out of vacuum boost...😁😁
So cool how just a bit of tinkering and a few parts will get a machine that looked like it was unusable back in working condition.
I just about stood up and shouted when it moved!
What a cool old machine.
12:05 did bees just fly out of the exhaust 😂😂😂
Awsome episode !!!! Your videos are so easy to watch !! Feel free to make them longer !! Cheers from British Columbia Canada 🇨🇦
Coaxing life out of cadavers..BRAVO
Determining its operating systems.. RAVO...
Learning how to keep it alive...NOT NEEDED...
IT WANTS TO LIVE...ITS OBEDIENT, .ITS WELL MANNERED ..IT NEEDS A FEW TRANSFUSIONS.....
ART WAS VERY TALENTED...LOL
What a great projects ,I loved the HD Allis Chalmers at your Dad's place you played with over the summer great video's
Gotta love that Lord Humungus grille guard.
THANKS, so nice you taking us thru this mostly sorted upgrade.
Learned some new & interesting today😊
What a champion 🏆
That unit may have diff stearing. Looks kind of leathel useful from an Australian perspective. Keep your toes away from the chain!
Nice , seems like a worthy candidate for cleanup possibility for restoration !
That looks like an original toolbox too
Can anyone imagine the amount of time and thought whoever it was put into this machine to do the conversion?
Looking forward to the next one. The hydraulic fluid looks like the fire proof type we us in the Die Casting Industry.
cool little loader i know you will have it running in tip top condition cant wait to see what becomes of this machine in the future ,stay tuned
Thanks for the great content. It always amazes me at the projects you find.
So cool! I love watching you do mechanics!
Just started watching your channel. I learn things whilst being entertained! The perfect combo.
You find the GREATEST projects 😮
The round device on the side of the fuel injection pump is the hand priming pump. Screw down when not in use. The Governor is a pneumatic type and depends on the vacuum from the throttle body on the inlet manifold.
I like it! Andrew Camtara and Diesel Creak would be proud
You need this crawler in your life.
Every time you say safety I take a drink and shake my head 🤣
You are the Sherlock Holmes of used and modified equipment.
Excellent choice in machinery. Love it.
A great little machine. Those hydraulic hoses are another story. Could get expensive. In either hoses or spilled message oil.
Great vid and work, I hope you get this project crawling along 👍💨💨
I just don’t understand why you don’t have a lot more subscribers
A lot of YT vids have analytics that show 30% of the people who regularly watch...are subscribed!
Now since he has 58k subscribers...add 70% to that and we have a theoretical 193k regular watchers....
153k can't be bothered simply clicking "subscribe".....
nice... bringing old junk back to life!
Awesome - u got “the work of art” functioning in no time
You are a very gifted man. Love your videos. Best wishes.
That piece of pipe welded to the top of the bucket is awesome you are going to love it , for slings and chains lifting stuff . For loading stuff into a bin you tip the bucket forward and it pops the sling or chain off so you don't have to get off the tractor as much .
Nice hit! That can come in real handy for future projects.
That thing is awesome James! 😦 I'm glad you could get it running and moving under it's own power! 🔧🔩
I love me some suprise hydraulic moisturizer 😂😂
Nissan Diesel ------- You my friend are on a winner !!!!!
Cool find
I'd love to have that beauty for digging around my 2 acre garden!
Im liking that little dozer.
Great video
I was going to stop by and ask you what you were doing with the two tracked vehicles you had next to your shop. They looked pretty cool.
You are a very intelligent young man. Excellent video.
Talented - So much fun - With a great sense of humor!
