Your audio is terrible! I had to actually move my thumb and finger to hit a button lightly to make adjustments. Please fix this major issue!!
There, I did it for ya, now you can enjoy the video 😉
I'm maxed out on volume and still barely hear the audio.
hahahaha
this is like youtuberception. a youtuber complaining on his own video about audio mind blown hahahaha
Ya think the people who complain about YT video/audio quality get irony? I don't! Made me laugh though 🤣
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤪😉
You're a hoot Captain.
I imagine you keep the guys on your Firestation duty roster in stitches in the break room.
Y'all got a pool table like they had at my Dad's Firestation number 7 in Flint Michigan ?
Dont stress too much about the audio, we can hear you just fine and its the content that counts. Good work on the tractor, good care and maintenance like yours and it'll keep serving you well.
Hey thanks for watching!
I agree, had to turn the volume down.
The sound is fine, the content is great. If you can't hear get better aids or use the text.
Like listening to Bob Ross work on his tractor. Very relaxing
Lol appreciate the feedback!
I'm a Kubota tractor type of guy, good video
Thanks for watching!
Think you may have a bad motor mount shouldn't move around like it does.
Oh it's possible. But they are around a couple hundred. Maybe I can tackle that in the fall
Mike, I have both a 770 and 790 JD tractors. Neither of my engines have as much side-to-side movement as your 755 upon start up. Is it possible you have a bad or loose motor mount? Great video. Love your channel. Lee
The rear mount is definitely showing some age. It's next with the battery
My 1070 is about the same thing but just 4cyl and the best tractor to own with a front-end loader and 4x4 and is a94 and still doesn't burn any oil. And love my Yanmar engine and have one own my marine boat what a pur they make.
Nice video.. sound is okay.. you’re not a professional jeet.. but like your view on it have too be better.. greeting from Denmark
Audio mr. kleeman!!! PLEASE I hear you good on DP's channel.
Motor mounts wore on on the John Deere with the yanmar for me.Fuel system was acting up and flushed tank and replaced all lines.Bottom of tank was a mess.After it was like it should be.Started smooth and ran correct.
Captain, You most certainly have a good work ethics and attitude.
Ya got the job done nice and tidy with what you had handy.
Your hair is getting a might little bit long on ya tho.
My Wife buggin' me about my hair so I'm fairly sure a certain little lady is hinting it's time for you to make a visit to your local barber shop.
lol, let's pull the whole engine out. take it completely apart, ice blast clean the parts, sand blast the frame, and powder coat it some bright chrome like green, lol as the kids would say, add some bling green, after all it's still a deere, lol, and put it back together. i guess we, you,lol, would have to make an oven big enough for the tractor frame so we could powder coat it. lol, hey we could make a bit of change powder coating stuff. like the rims on the tractor, the road drag, etc.
what? it would only take a couple of hours. lol
but it would be fun. let's add heat and ac to the tractor lol, like a fan. how cool would that be. in the summer we would have heat in the winter cold, lol. i'm just saying. the hvac would work. i'm just saying. lol.
Kleeman go to arms family homestead and watch his video ( Land plane and simple driveway repair.) be sure to watch it all so you can see the blades on his. D P may have some old cutting blades you could use also that would give you alot more weight you are wanting
The microphone should be closer to your mouth. Maybe velcro?????
Sends Kleeman line wrenches and ratcheting wrenches. And Brakekleen(man) to wash area to check for leaks and heated powerwasher
In regards to time travel you might want to recharge your flux capacitor I drained it last night
Here you talking about your alternator is a good idea but I would run a second battery it will save on wire over heating and where a d rare on the alternator the more amps the more monie it cost to fix and repair if you ever noticed the 2 batteries on the electric plows on plow trucks just a thought for you to ponder on a cost to do things right ay now save big later when I. Break downs love your channel here mike good luck with all your projects I will proble but in here there and again just because of my experience
Another great video, retired ag mechanic here never worked on a small tractor like that but is it possible u have a broken motor mount, just seems like jumps around alot, I definitely could be wrong. Keep up the good work
The rear mount is definitely having issues. It's next on the list with the battery
No problem with the audio. The content was great. Good one 👍
Makes sens enough put it on the battery no need using the main tractor ground wire.
Yep. Ground to battery with cable as short as practical.
I appreciate all your little idioms. They crack me up. "Were going to school either way, and its up to me how long were in session" 😂
Lol
Great job fixing your tractor
Oh ya try useing deep cycle batteries cost more but take one hell of a beaten
Great video Mike
Copper washers..Well at least in England anyway.
Drop some dish soap on the belt to stop the squeaky belt
The other 50% are just bad at math!😆😂🤣
😂
What's with sticking your shoe in that muddy water? Have a childhood flashback and couldn't resist?😆
Frame of reference for depth lol
OK, I preemptively turned up my volume and now my ears are bleeding. This is clearly YOUR FAULT ;-)
Hahaha
I don't know why you are changing those orings out they're just needing to be flipped 🙃🙃 😂😆😂. I'm surprised you didn't have issues sooner there Bud. Great job showing it even if the audio is poor I just don't care I'm not sure why but I think 🤔🤔 maybe I am addicted to watching you do stuff and the variety I'm telling you it's just the bee's knees Cap. Well that's all I wanted to say about that. As always good luck and God Bless.
Lol, dang it, I always forget to rotate my o rings
Come on Captain get the math right.
50% battery
50% ground
And now there’s only 30% left that are bad at math. 🤦♂️
Hahaha
Captain doesn't Dp have a 755? I know he has a couple small jd tractors just don't remember their sizes, but, if you needed help with timing yours maybe he can help you out with that
He does not have a 755.
No complaints about the audio in 99.999999999999999999999999% of the videos. Sometimes stuff happens that is out of your control. Some people tend to just be miserable people that like to complain. Let the serial audio complainers buy you a fully professional sound recording setup. No wait, then they would complain you don't know how to use it correctly. 🤣
Hahaha, you're exactly right
'........ and the other 50% are just bad at maths!" Damn man that caught me off guard drinking my coffee so much that it came out my noseI was laughing so much. Too funny!
Sorry for the mess!
Audio problems aren’t an issue for us since Voiceover Mike does such a great job so I’m thinking it’s more of an issue of Real Life Mike not getting along with Voiceover Mike. 😜
No that's a good possibility
Kleeman, better be careful, you may wind up turning into a mechanic! 👨🔧
Lol
I watch your videos with captions on and i thought you'd like to know that often it captions background noise as "applause" so you're definitely impressing the youtube captions :P
Hey we have that going for us atleast!
You probably saved a few hundred bucks replacing the o-rings yourself.
Definitely
Great job on your driveway
Thank you!
There's a guy in John Deere's corporate office putting you on a list right now., you can expect a cease and desist order soon. They don't want you repairing your own macjinery lol.
Lol
Well my thoughts were just leave the winch ground the length it was and then if you don't like it on the battery you have length to put it back on the frame. Lol. And no...I didn't have anything better to think about at the time. 😁😃 And I really like the new road drag. Loosens the gravel very good.
Thanks Jason!
Worked on about a dozen Yanmars over last few years. One of my favorite engines to work on. Last 3 cyl I rebuilt: once I had the parts in my hand an in-frame took 4 hours from start to start up.New record for me.One of the last tractors built (old ones and not the new ones) designed with field repair in mind.
Hey I may have to reach out when I end up doing this one!
Yeah....everybody I know can rebuild an engine correctly in 4 hours. 🙄🙄
@@catchingfadesclashroyal6506 little 3 cylinder yanmars are brain dead stoopid to work on partner. Been turning a wrench for decades: that helps.....
Have you seen Tractor Time with Tim's turbo 1025?
Yup, pretty neat.
Why not take the loader off to give yourself some room to work? I never work on my 855 engine with the loader attached.
Why add a step if it's not necessary?
Audio is fine on computer, maybe the problem is in the software used to "cast" it to TV?
Possible
A JD dealer told me the 55 series tractors some of the best John Deere built. The Yanmar engines are very reliable too.
They truly are. Love these little tractors
"One take outro's" lol. Entertaining as always, keep up the hard work
Thanks Paul!
Great repair the next part is to see why your engine is moving side to side so much the engine shouldn't move side to side like that check the engine mounts.
Yup,. Definitely on the short list
What's it like working without old DP giving you a bunch of grief?
Lol
Great Video...! At 19:42 the other 4/3 will just agree with you...!
Lol
There's never an issue with your audio when you're muted..... :P Chuckles to self.. Another great video!
Very true!
Engine has a lot of movement is something loose or broken. Good video.
I was wondering if it had a bad engine mount? May be the way it's designed, to minimize engine vibration to the rest of the tractor?
Hi great job . I need to do the same job on my 755 can u tell me the part numbers on the crush washer
And thank you
Not 100% sure, would have to check that part on the video to see. But if you go to weingartz, they have a great parts diagram that is super user friendly
Great video. Where can I get a set of those cable you use for you winch. I have a winch I want to use on the back of my tractor.
The connectors I bought on Amazon and you add them into whatever cables you're using with a crimp tool. They are called Anderson connectors
Just replace the “O” ring would of taken care of your issue.
Why take the whole thing apart and not replace the $3.00 worth of gaskets on the inside as well?
Mike have you ever thought about a hydraulic top link? And in a pinch those copper crush washers can be heated to a dull red and let air cool an reused. 🤔
It would definitely be handy!
Mike check out walnuts and wine berries channel. he fixes tractor creep
I don't mind it, not worth the time for me to work on. Appreciate you looking out though!
I guess the decision to get a new tractor is based on whether you spend more time working on the tractor or doing work with the tractor. Also would a larger tractor, be a better fit for what you need it to do.
116% of us think the groundwire should go to the wireless mic.
😂😂
Hey captain great video.👍👌😎✌️🇺🇲
Thanks Ken!
You are either right or wrong on the ground wire placement time will tell who is the smarter one, I rooting for you!!
Very true and thanks!
Good maintenence on the tractor👍👍. I know you get blown up with the opinion cannon from everyone all the time on what they would do different. I'm trying not to be "that guy" I only have an idea that I think you could build and would take zero time as a cool add on feature for your rake. Since you already have power ran to the back you could buy a 12v worm screw actuator (you can find them on the internet) to actuate your ripper up and down so you wouldn't have to get off the machine at all. I'm going to add one to my snow plow so I can tilt the blade left and right so I don't have to get off my side by side when plowing. Just an idea🤷♂️
Would be handy
It keeps the salt off the bottom.......🤦♂️
Well it does!
@@CaptainKleeman its definitely true..... that's why it made me laugh
Cap’n, the 755 needed a little TLC! I could tell how happy she was as she swaggered down the driveway. And why not… got her feeding tubes plumbed, her pigtail routed and her mask replaced. She’s all set for adventure… better take the key with you, she’s liable to party on her own!
I am sending a package your way today… I’ll text or email you the tracking info. It’ll be sent to the market.
Hope you have nothing less than a wonderful day!
I'll keep an eye out for it!!
any one else getting a bobross feeling while he was putting those fittings back in?
Lol
Hey Mike when you go to make your jumper cables with the Andersen connector use welding wire that way in the winter they are not all stiff it’s a better wire to use and you can make them however long you would like them
Good idea
It helps me to use the box end of a wrench anytime possible as opposed to the open if I have one
Unfortunately not an option here, not enough space between fittings
That engine looks to move too much, maybe check motor mounts?
Yup, the rear one needs some attention. Can only afford so much at a time though.
Thanks Mike ... great video. You were correct in running the winch cables to the battery ... you eliminated the additional resistance of the longer winch cable AND the smaller ground cable for the tractor.
Regards,
R
I think you should build a goat coup and a chicken barn.
Now there's an idea
🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸☕️☕️☕️👋👋👋👀👀👀🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Was there a part number for the copper washers ?
I can't remember, I got everything off of weingartz. They have awesome parts diagram
I just have to that your garage is way better than DP's.
Lol, they both have pros and cons
HI guys from Victoria Australia 🇦🇺🇦🇺 im trying to fix a fiat 411r tractor 😲😲 so i can mow/slash my property 😁😁 but not having much luck getting parts down here in Australia 😢
Any fellow Aussies help him out???
thats one of those deals you have to hold your mouth just right. lol
Definitely!
ya done good with the road drag - smart guy you are kleeman.
Thank you!
Nice repair and grading work there Cap. One thing I was really hoping for was a chainsaw/radio installation. I know you will understand. 😁 Stay safe brother.
Hey chainsaws are handy,. Can't blame the fella lol
@@CaptainKleeman what's the old saying? If all you have is a hammer, then everything looks like a nail? Lol
@@blackdogexcavator21 I thought it was… If all you got is a chainsaw… everything looks like a dashboard!
@@sassafrasvalley1939.
Nice Andrew Carmata reference 👌
Pretty crucial keeping a clean work environment around fuel components . A portable air tank with a blowgun would be desirable .
Hey Mike, I've been watching your 755 videos. We just picked one up for my dad to help with his yard maintenance and make things easier for him at 76 years young. I'm curious, I know you like your 755, but with a lot of the type of work you use it for what are your thoughts on why you haven't gone up to an 855 or maybe even a 955? Other than price. The 755 we picked up wasn't treated the best unfortunately, but it was reflected in the price and we are working through it to fix the issues and clean it up a bit. My thoughts were not to go to crazy and try to find an 855 to upgrade my dad to in a year or so. I really like the size of these tractors for what my dad needs and I like the old school mechanics of it for ease of maintenance. I think it could be a good video topic if you could explain the benefits and limits of each level of the 55s. Why you decided to stay with the 755, if it's just the devil you know type of thing, availability or something else? Thanks for your content, there's unfortunately not a lot of thorough videos out there on real world use, upgrades and maintenance on these. Thanks from another Mike!
Hey Capt., your alternator is the same 40 amp alternator as the 855 and 955. When you get ready to replace it, contact a local alternator/starter shop and see if they can't just rebuild yours with a higher amp stator. I've stopped buying new alternators and have started rebuilding them myself which isn't too difficult.
755 and 855 are the same, 955 has a higher amp output. BUT, taking mine to an alternator shop would definitely be the best bet
@@CaptainKleeman yeah most definitely. Was just watching DPs new video and wondering how long the mirrors are gonna last on the new haul truck 🤣
I think it’s awesome it looks like it works great
Thanks Gary!
Thank you for the content. I'm always looking for my 855 . I really want it to last. It's a beast!
Have you had any front axle problems with this tractor? - Thanks
You got to fix your audio brother, it is so bad!!!!
Sure just! Just need about 2k and I'll be able to purchase all the equipment I need. Hopefully later this summer I'll have it setup.
I do love your humour. You come across as a really nice guy, doing real projects with real constraints. It's easy to relate to, amusing and instructive. Perfect. Thank you for putting in the time to make these videos.
Hey thanks for watching!
Nice video, consider getting an insulated cover for the positive terminal of the battery, it doesn't take much for the tin work above the battery to get bent down and cause a short. as DP knows.
Use a resettable breaker on the anderson pig tail.
Just use a piece of pex to replace those plastic tubes.
Too thick of wall to fit between injection lines
Hi Mike. Pleased you received the oil wrenches, as I watched you time and again use the fan belt method and as an ex mechanic on All sizes of machines from CAT D9 to small ride on mowers as well as chainsaws thought something like what I used would not go amiss in your toolbox. Also useful on pipe fittings and water filtration units, so could be of help with the rentals you end up building. Hope to see you when I travel over from the UK and visit Farmer Chris as I also used to build those silos he has just had on his farm. My one bucket list journey left is driving the whole of Route 66 using as much of the original as there is that is accessible, when the travel and covid stuff allows. It also allows me to visit my ex para medic Buddies who married members of the American armed forces and all seem to live on or close to the route. Enjoy the tools and see how long it takes to break them lol.
Hey thank you so much! They will definitely come in handy
Nice compact Tractor, you get a LOT out of it.
Definitely! Thanks for watching
Pretty good maintenance video 👍
Thank you sir!
Are you using any kind of diesel fuel additive? Many times these additives have chemicals in them that can work on seals and cause them to leak. Otherwise it could be the ultra low sulfur diesel fuel that is required now. Very odd that all three seals would be leaking all at once. Also, use the box end of the combination wrench whenever possible. This helps keep from rounding off the corners of the fitting.
Well they started one at a time,. Over a years time they were all leaking lol. I let it go too long
Ok, so I noticed quite a bit of engine vibration especially at low rpm. Do you think that might have had something to do with the seal failure? It seemed like the one fitting was even loose. The one closest to the front of the tractor was too easy to break loose.
Captain K, don’t worry about the audio,. Maybe those that complain should buy you the audio equipment you would like to have! 😃
They say not to use an extension on a torque wrench
A straight extension is fine, unless you start using knuckles or other attachments to change the angle, there isn't an issue.
I did not send them. My research the 755 and 855 use the same 35amp alternator. The 955 has an optional 40amp alt.
Yup, that is correct. I need to measure Mike's on his 955 to see if it would fit, but I don't think it would be a problem
@@CaptainKleeman at lest you have on to look at. If you need the 955 part number let me know. Just send me a Facebook message.
Tractor sounds like it runs way better and has more power. If you clean the crud off the top of the battery and clean the negative post and cable, you may find you don’t need a new battery yet. I’ve been told the crud on the top can allow electric to flow between posts.
Best wishes. Kevin
Thanks Kevin!
@@CaptainKleeman Always better to share what you learn.
Doing these stupid little jobs makes doing all the stupid big jobs so much easier! 😂 🏴
Well I guess thats one way to look at it
Enjoyed this video Captain
Thank you doug!
Where are all the "correct police"? Don't you know, you should always disconnect the ground from the battery before putting a wrench on the positive cable? 😉
That's only if you're clumsy, which we all know Im not 😂😂
@@CaptainKleeman 🤣
Time travel is quite easy. To go forward or backwards 12 hours. One simply needs to fly over the pole. Lol God bless
Hahaha, fair point
