- I bought this old loader for the price of the wheels, they're the same size as my grader wheels and in better condition.. Its always a gamble buying an old cheap machine like this.. Will it even start and get off the transport truck? will it make it up my 6km driveway?

So the bloke who sold this to Marty stopped laughing about halfway through this video
😂
Yep, Marty put paid to that.😉
yep, I'd say so, heh.
Brilliant comment, so true!!
A very honest fellow for sure....PRICK!
Wife said "No more tractors!" so you go out and buy this lol. "But dear, it's not a tractor, it's a loader"
I was thinking the same thing
Just for the tires
@@tileman17 Same
"No honey, don't go there..." finds a machine after machine hid under camo netting.
Next episode he rocks up in a combine harvester bahaha
What I like about Marty's methodical approach is that he does enough to get the loader going and prevent any further damage, but doesn't going overboard with extensive repairs until he has worked out if the loader is worth saving and doesn't have a terminal illness. Another problem with going full on with repairs at an early stage is that it's easy to loss momentum when faced with multiple problems to fix, and you end up with a machine that's half pulled to pieces waiting for new parts and some spare time, but it never gets put back together. How do I know this story? Yes, gentle listener, I was that man........
If he finds where the oil intercooler is to cool the hydraulic oil she will turn a fine spot. I believe last time she stamped her foot and said not more tractors. Tisn't a tractor Hon, tis a loader that is not even broke in yet. She just looks used dear.
Strange. I thought I was that man. That reminds me I have to put back together the scooter I bought.
@@EbonyPope Ha ha. Let me tell you about the Triumph Tigress scooter I pulled apart in 1981....
@@voidthewarranty1429 Is he still waiting in your garage with increasing dispair? Poor thing. I have no problem putting it together. I did it with the other one but lost motivation afterwards somehow. But every now and then I suddenly get up and finish the project. It just takes a few months... or years. Hehehe
@@EbonyPope That was many, many, many years ago. As I recall the Tigress had a neat little 250cc parallel twin aluminium block 4 stroke engine, built like car engine with a sump plate and not splitting along the crank shaft. I pulled the pistons and the con rod big end nuts were wrecked in the process. Only problem was they had a extremely strange thread and I couldn't find replacements. My memory is being stretched rather thin, but I think it was on sold as "doer-upper".
You improved it by 80% just going up the hill with a minimal amount of tools, I can only imagine how much more you can do with it next to the garage with a toolbox. Double thumbs up!
“The deeper I dig, the worse it’s looking.” It’s adventures like this that keep us tuning in!
This rig is a fine example of a lifetime of "we will do it next week" maintenance. Should be great to watch it all get sorted out.
Yup.... And it's so very entertaining to watch his brain go through it all and then, poof, working like a perfectly (old) machine.
Yes - "deferred maintenance".. and far better that it is in Marty's loving and capable hands.
I just found this channel. Wow this guy is a wealth of knowledge and nothing like having to fix something you bought just to get it home.
I think it's fantastic that there are such people who carry out their maintenence on the _"procrastination schedule",_ so that Marty can continue to score great bargains and showcase his forensic mechanical rescues for us to enjoy.
When I go shopping by myself, I usually have to hide some _"illegal purchase"_ like chocolate or Brie cheese which might make me put on those extra kilos. But trying to hide a 20 ton bright yellow loader is escalating the stakes waaay out of my league. . . Good Luck Marty.
Your analysis of each problem is really interesting and educational. I loved the use of an infra-red phone App to analyse the coolant flow. All mechanics can use that idea to great effect.
@@JohnSmith-yv6eq Thanks, I was very impressed by the use of it.
These are my favourite Marty T videos and probably my favourite UA-cam videos overall. Taking a badly neglected machine and bringing it back to life. This could have been so easily scrapped and turned into washing machines and patio furniture. Instead, it will continue working. Despite the smoke it was pumping out, the carbon saved from this not being baled and turned into something that nobody needs to buy is still huge.
I like your rationale 👍🏼
Marty, I'm sure you can make a ''keeper'' out of it. I'm not fond of dishonest people that neglect to tell me what issues the equipment really has. I will eventually find out and then think less of the guy. Thanks for sharing, stay safe.
Ignorance is a plague.
Ah, faack, he bought it for the price of the wheels....Thankfully all this was on his property?
@@JoelMMcKinney Truth!
That’s why I have never sold a car to anyone else others then the scrap yard, I could never be a used car salesman.
It's unrealistic to buy things at scrap prices and expect a detailed and accurate assessment of the unit. You might want and feel like you deserve it but it's not realistic or practical at those price points. Besides, he's skilled and is getting a great discount from YT revenue. He knows what risks there are in buying bottom barrel items. ;-)
53 years ago I was a 3 year old sitting on my dads lap as he ran what was then a fairly new 240B Hough Payloader. Still remember it very clearly. Haven't thought of that for a very long time, thanks for that.
Back in my farming days i had my 3 year old on my lap steering the tractor. Every time I would try to adjust the steering he would slap my hand away. To be fair, he never actually hit anything. lol
This has to be the most satisfying video I have watched in a long time. Your problem solving skills, calm demeanour and getting the desired outcomes all came together for a great video to watch with respect and admiration. Icing on the cake is that it is in New Zealand.🙂👍👍
That "glow plug" is actually an intake heater. It heats up and burns fuel that is plumbed in to it and creates a small fire in the intake to heat it up. I Haven't seen one of those in 20+ years! If you weren't sure how it worked, but sure you did.
Well technically its not a tractor so you are all good there Marty.
Marty buys a worn out tractor and by the time it reaches the top of the driveway, it’s tip top. :) Great video!
And he puts some fill in a low spot along the way.
Juha, it is biodiesel, no harm for nature 😉
@Juha Tuomala A fair assessment given the lack of fore information... I've forgotten that he is able to find bio...
That wheel loader increased in value the further up the hill it made it.
🤣🤣🤣
I appreciate the time and effort you take to give us all of the different vantage points...Aerial shots, an angle from the four-wheeler, from the bucket, a passing shot. The variety keeps it interesting. I'd watch without all of the angles (I watch Mustie and Ave, afterall), but I am sure the effort you make to make it interesting for your viewers is appreciated by all. Nice find, Marty.
Haha yes this ^
We all appreciate the annoying effort of running ahead, setting camera, driving past only to run back and grab it again. minutes of labor for seconds of footage. Marty was probably a director in a previous life.
Wife said:"no more tractors!"
Marty chuckles...:"Honey...this is much bigger than a tractor"🤣😂
😭😂
I bought tires for the road grader, the loader was free so the tires could be rolled up to the house.
“Like” it first. Then watch it. Never disappointed.
^^this!
This guy should teach a masterclass in troubleshooting!! Fix it with RTV and a pocket of wrenches, absolutely amazing work
Keep up the good work! Good to see a tradesman at work ! And a good editor at work.
''After stopping every hundred yards, our intrepid explorer arrived at base camp with a fully restored machine...several weeks later!''
"Let's try it and see what happens". Probably the most succinct description ever of the scientific method! Thanks Marty.
I like seeing people breath some new life into this old iron. They worked hard all their lives and deserve some kindness.
Marty promise me you won't bring anymore of these old timers home,
Marty: I promise 🤞😅
next Marty comes a long with a big hug yellow old timer 😂😂😂❤
Your wife is a absolute jewel to let you keep on saving these old timers and give them life again absolute insane awesome 😊 your absolutely sitting on hug amount of great value with all of these old timers machines that you have given a 2nd life. 😊😊great job Marty keep it going 👏 👍
Don't worry Marty, she'll never see it. It'll just blend in with all the others! "Uuhhh no dear I didn't buy another tractor... Oh that one? Ah it's been at my mates down the road. He's done with it now and just brought it back..." 😉good luck with that.
We'd love to have you come and check out the equipment at Awakino Ski Area. Same digger as you, plus HEAPS of classic machines still operating.
Tusen takk for god underholdning Marty.👍🤗👍🇸🇯
I love seeing these old machines getting some much needed TLC, and how respectfully you treat what some people would dismiss at junk.
You are a master detective at finding the issues with used equipment!! Excellent diagnosis and repair!! Liked !! Subbed !!
That would be a heap of neglect. It's amazing how long the older machines will run with nothing done to them in decades.
Yup. why I prefer 'em. They'll keep running as long as they're capable of running.
@@TestECull ... and once You had to change something, You do not need to connect a computer to it and the interweb to make the original supplyer approve of the part You put in .....
Exactly. When I see what other folks do - lack of doing ANYTHING yet the poor machine still runs. If it were my machine, or probably 99% of the people reading this, they would NEVER let it get that bad. Problem is, some folks simply don't have the assets to properly maintain a machine. They are lucky it simply runs and does the work they want it to do. Great work, Marty! That must have been a pain, bringing the radiator back to the shop to power wash it, then take it back to the machine on the side of your long driveway. Where there's a will, there's a way... and Marty is right there with the know-how to get it running again! Bravo!
@@samvalentine3206 I can understand that when it comes to the tires on stuff like this which can cost several thousand a piece sometimes, but something as simple as cleaning grunge out of a radiator takes nothing but sweat equity.
@@TestECull It still does take sweat equity. People are lazy. To a point that they rather sell off the "junk" before putting that sweat in.
Holy Marty!
Mrs. T is gonna hit the roof when she sees that!
This is a bit off topic, but, the area where you live is so beautiful.
I’m sure your neighbors all appreciate all that you do to keep the road maintained, safe, and smooth. That drop off is a bit scary.
On topic; that was pretty cool fixing it as you went. It’s too bad that people don’t maintain their equipment better. It didn’t seem like an expensive fix except for labor. Just regular maintenance. It’s a shame. Hopefully it will be a good machine for you. The ol girl will at least have good care in retirement. It’s good to see a video from you, your work always amazes me. Wish you and your family well. 😃
Systematic troubleshooting with comentary is so nice. Makes me go "yeah, that makes sense" at every step even though I know nothing about engines. Plus, the satisfaction of setting things right.
He does a very good job explaining things he is doing. Wondering if that oil cooler will be Repaired or replaced
I just bought a Michigan 35a loader with a broken front axle, it looks very similar size and condition to yours. I metal detected all the bits from the paddock it was in and is running great :)
You can still buy those axles new in idaho
I have two 35A Michigan loaders. You can see them on my channel. Like & subscribe!
@@kyleboettcher1276 Really, for a 1970 machine? Unfortunately the shipping to NZ would be rather expensive! A workshop manual would be nice to get the transmission shifting better, it a clark 2420.

@@davidstech1445 Thanks for those links :) The problem turned out to be 10 litres low on oil! It's too wet here to do what I need it for at the moment so I'll have to wait till spring to test it further.
You did it again, Marty. Buying it only for the tires, then saving the whole thing instead. You just can't resist saving those old machines if they still have life left in them. Hope the wife won't put you in the dog house for this!
He told Mrs Marty it was a garden ornament all the rage in the city.
Everyone needs a Marty T as a neighbor!
This was a good find in my humble opinion! Your loader tractors are most certainly useful, but they are a bit lacking when it comes to repairs of your road in instances such as after those 50 year heavy rainfall you had a while back. It will obviously help you to develop your property a lot faster too if that is in your plans at all. Those pallet forks combined with the much heavier payload of this loader will be useful too I imagine.
You're right, this machine is far more heavy duty than my db990 loader. It will be useful for firewood and roadworks.
I feel like this is a fake account made my Marty to help convince his wife that he's made a wise choice.
Dear @@MartyT
👍👌👏 Yes, of course. And also as a new big toy for a big boy! ;-) 😁
Maybe by painting it forest green, you are able to hide it from Misses T.?! Or an Army camouflage paint job would work even better!? 😁😝
Best regards luck and health.
@@Chr.U.Cas1622 No, just declare it as a birthday present, a step up from the tractor that she enjoyed driving.
Dear @@robt2151
A step up? Hehehe 😁👍 okay. But I guess it's more like 10 steps up. Additionally: As a birthday present it should at least be painted in Misses T.' s favourite colour (hope it isn't pink). ;-)
Best regards luck and health.
I'll never understand people that neglect equipment and vehicles like that. Especially when 90% of the time, all it needs is a proper cleaning to keep it functioning.
yep, they are built to last.. such a shame really
People treat everything as disposable these days !
They do nothing to their cars and expect it all to be done during the annual service including checking tyre pressures ! I see cars everyday driving with flat tyres or barely any air in tyres, bald tyres and bulges in the side wall but they will just keep driving until they either crash or someone tells them it's dangerous ! A loader at work that requires maintenance costs money so nobody takes the time to check over it and as long as they can start it and run it for a few minutes to tidy up the yard it gets ignored.
@@io4439 Better for us that enjoys fixing machines
Because they don't care. If the equipment belongs to someone else or a business. They could care less about maintenance. Just jump in an go.
As Marty noted. She loves Ether.😅
I had a customer who kept coming in for Ether. I asked a polite question. He said it's hard to start.
I asked him. Are your glow plugs working? He said I don't know or how to check them?
I told him get a volt meter and ohms them out. He was puzzles. So I said take one out and bring it to me. I will show you how to test them. He brought one by. It was no good. I showed what a brand new one ohms out. He bought 6 new glow plugs. The following week he told he me. His truck starts just find. No more hard start.
My dad used cans of "Start Ya Bastard" ether, which I see you can still buy. A rare case of truth in advertising.
All the Mrs' needs is a chance to test drive it! Always fun to see a new patient at Marty's clinic for abused, lonely and abandoned equipment. Maybe you should start a go fund me page for new rubber.
It’s after midnight here in Michigan USA, I’ll watch because I love to see old rusty machines coming back to life by the hands of this skilled kiwi.
If all goes well I celebrate with the Marty T baptism of oil & Diesel to preserve this old chassis!
You’re in Mitch again?
I suspect the missus is generously consenting to being humourously cast as the protagonist. Great video thank you.
Loved the video, no fuzz about it and no annoying music! You just earned yourself a sub
Really appreciate you posting yet another video! I thoroughly enjoy watching you restore old, or abandoned vehicles & other equipment. Was missing your videos, so very glad you finally posted this one. Look forward to more of your videos. Peace!
I was impressed it drove off the trailer with working hydraulics. Tires that hold air is just icing on the cake. So what if she likes the ether... we all have vices... we all have vices. LOL.
I've been thru this. I bought a 67 ford f150 for cheap. Turns out it had a blown head gasket, 6 busted cylinder rings a shot radiator and a blown rear seal from a stuck PCV valve! Then the radiator had a leak.
1:49 I've seen this with old diesel locos before. Sometimes a diesel engine has fuel dysphoria and prefers to identify as a steam engine, you'll find once it's figured itself out it'll perform better than ever before.
So, all it needs is some quiet time and a chance to make new friends at Marty's yard?
It's the new kid on the block but the older machines will help with curing its dysphoria
Thanks for another great video, love the scenery, your practical skills and the range of sometimes obscure machinery, from companies long gone. The Hough must think it's in heaven, you fixed a few obviously longstanding issues and took great care getting to your yard, nursing the old girl. Hopefully we'll see more about it in future
She's still got Alot of character 😀she's gonna love the radiator fix, poor gal just needed some TLC ❤
I learn a lot watching you diagnose and solve problems on the fly like that. Its so easy when I see you do it and so mysterious when I try it! :)
Another great video showcasing your whole range of problem solving skills. Thanks for keeping these “old” machines running.
Excellent video. Love your troubleshooting skills. Bring old things back to life is something I really enjoy watching. Good luck with your loader
I've got a Hugh H50. Be sure to check the U-joints between the torque converter and the transmission. If they fail under load, it will shear off the pump shafts when the engine quickly spins up suddenly. The drivetrain parts are impossible to get, so be gentle with it! I got very lucky to find someone parting out a machine many states (US) away from me.
Good advice thanks mate
I'm sure Marty'll be checking everything on this beauty, he's Quite thorough.
Is it possible the parts are just really hard for you to get because you're in the states? I won't say it'll be easy, but maybe it would be a little easier for Marty since he's in New Zealand. :)
@@JohnSmith-yv6eq As much as I like Car Wizard I take anything and everything he says with an extreme grain of salt.
Plus you're trying to point out the obvious, which is why I was making a statement to Turning Short Final. Marty's wheel loader is most likely a European brand. Just because parts are hard to get here in the states doesn't mean they're going to be as hard to get over in New Zealand.
Everything that is European made is hard to get parts for here in the states and they're expensive. Other countries don't have the same problem. A machine just being old doesn't always mean parts are hard to get. Location is a big part of parts scarcity too.
The old Hough has come to a good home where she will get much needed TLC from Dr Marty,well done mate.
Again another methodical diagnosis and repair/fix. Really appreciate your videos. Keep them coming and updates on the previous acquisitions please. Thank U again
I like to tinker with things myself but it's always fun watching Marty tinker with bigger toys than I have. And who else can turn buying a old machine and getting it home into a adventure. He's not only great with his hands but a fantastic editor as well. Keep up the good work mate.
The old Payloader takes me back nearly fifty years. We had a couple on log work, they were pretty good in there day. They went out on hire one day and came back in off hire five years later. great video Marty. Haven't seen much of your videos lately. Keep them coming.
You're a great teacher Marty, I've learnt so much stuff about engines just watching your show. And I've worked on some pretty complex stuff over the years - though in an entirely different field. Kudos.
Love watching your videos when you take a chance on an old piece of equipment, you make it look so easy, 👌
A quick tighten of a bolt, oil change, new filters, grease up and that's it.
You then have a fully functioning machine.
Keep making your videos they reminds me of the days when I worked as an agricultural engineer.
Hi Marty , great find as usual. Many thanks for the uploads, long may they continue, we will follow. From Nr Liverpool UK.
It impresses me how quickly diligently and intelligently you deduce the problem and fix it you did what would have taken me an entire day in a garage to do then again I'm part of that new generation that can't really do anything so :/
Don't be so hard on yourself, the fact that you are here proves you are interested and willing to learn 👍
@@bren70ssss94 I appreciate the kind words
Ethan, you are not Marty T. Just be content that you can walk on water and leave the miracles of mechanics to Marty T.
Hi Marty, the IH D239 was a very popular and very well renowned engine built from approximately 1965 up until 1998. They are part of the IH Neuss family of 3, 4 and 6 cylinder engines that share lots of parts. Parts for these engines are very common and not expensive.
Great Vlog,especially like all the different camera angles,gives real time perspective of events as they happen, good work ❤️🦘🦘🦘
Marty, this was a awesome video. Your skills and patience are phenomenal and truly an inspiration. More videos please. You need to have over a million subs.
It’s not just a tractor dear it’s an important part of history.. we’re very lucky to have it 🤥
Pmsl
Yet another great video, nothing you can not fix mate! Looking forward to seeing it working on the property. Great stuff!!
Always fascinating the adventures of Marty. as a retired industrial carpenter my mechanical skills are if it can't be fixed with a hammer she done broke. ha ha . Som always great to see those that have the skills and can intuit the problems. Well done multi-tasking driving the loader and flying the drone one with each hand excellent vid thanks so much.
Mrs Marty T said 'No more tractors'....so she can't complain mate🤣👍🇦🇺
Your patience is a gift! Love your get it done spirit.
I bet his wife has more patience!!! 😀 On second thought it might be running out about now!
Magic - what a testament to the toughness of these old engines that despite a lifetime's abuse, some diagnostics and tlc from a (very good) mechanic and...hey presto! Great video, thank you.
Well done Marty T, great idea on using the hydraulic cylinders as additional cooling by cycling rams, I have bought junk autombiles through the auto auction before just for new rubber on them and batteries, It's a great deal as long as scrap iron prices are way down, when scrap iron price goes up, I will take the remainder on into the iron crusher yard and seem to do alright. Thank you again for sharing your expertise and craftiness
Always impressed with the depth of his knowledge. You always get a bit of an education with each video..a little tip like " allowing the gasket sealer to sit for a half hour or so to gain some stability before torquing it down". A master of trouble shooting.
11:00 It never does. Taking the stat out often causes overheating issues more than it solves them.
You bought this and spent a few hours wrenching on it just to get it up your driveway and seemed to fix the problems the previous owner couldnt figure out in i wonder how many years!! LOL You do some great work and can trouble shoot with the best of them!
Show the loader some love and care, its been crying out for someone like you.. Look forward to watching the maintenance and the progress 😁😁
Just discovered you, good stuff! My family are all US air force and sent the Clark video. I'm English and a old school mechanic in my late forties. Points and analog!.ps live in Florida and been here since the mid 90s. Love NZ and would love to live there!.
I have a feeling that the wheel loader will keep it's tires and be put to work!
Half of my radiator was stopped up making my truck overheat. I could feel the half that was flowing was hot and the other was cool. Swapped out the radiator and fixed the problem. Thanks for sharing with us.
Great to hear from you MartyT, ole girl might need a bit of TLC my friend! But no doubt you got this brother, I always enjoy watching you run down problems and causes of of equipment not performing at its best! Thanks for sharing my friend and myself 2000 Dodge 3500 with the Cummins in working great after replacing the TPS! I went cheap with one from China and that was a big mistake so I ordered the OEM sensor and it has a procedure for setting the voltage output so now it’s working great after years of that surging problem! Thanks for your advice brother, I think it was almost a year ago! Had health issues and now everything is running better than ever MartyT! You’re an amazing problem solver my friend! Thanks for sharing your experience brother, I’m always praying for you and your family up there on the mountain! Stay safe and healthy my friends! Kirk from Louisiana USA 🇺🇸 👌🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙂 wish you luck if the “Boss” spots your newest endeavor! lol 😂🤣😂
Dude, I love watching you diagnose and fix problems! Pretty amazing.
Hi Marty. I do enjoy your mechanical adventures and acquisition’s. Turning liability’s into viable assets by simple fixes. Great work and keep up the videos on the outcome’s .
Learn to use an apostrophe. Acquisitions. Liabilities. Outcomes.
If you ever run across any scrap aluminum tube, square tube, or angle iron, you might consider building a hinging tongue for the front of your atv. Would make towing it behind equipment or vehicles less unsteady.
Good plan, towing the quad was an afterthought, I couldn't be bothered walking all the way back down to get it
@@MartyT Does the quad fit in the bucket? I've seen that done with a scooter on a smaller loader by a local farmer once. ;)
@rollerchaos Yes I think it would but I'd have to tie it in there with 2 wheels hanging in mid air
@@MartyT I thought your tow strap was first rate, better than shoelaces.
I love watching you get the old iron back on line, Marty! I hope your wife won't be mad at you for picking up this old loader. It brings so much pleasure to you and to us, your viewers. I hope you'll show us more of the old Hough loader in episodes to come.
Always enjoy your commitment to get additional camera angles, while also dealing with tempromental machines.
Great stuff, Marty.
I know people who'd pay $2,000 for a serviceable DB like that one.
“I only bought it for the wheels” haha whatever Marty! 😁
Really enjoy the view from your place on the mountain. Thanks for your video and enjoy the rest of your weekend.
Hey Marty, I'm in Auckland, & have stumbled across your channel! What a gem!!
You're a great ambassador for the New Zealand 'can do' attitude.
My parents in law lived for years in Kenepuru Sounds (Tui Cove). A beautiful part of the world.
Getting together to pull out an old excavator or bulldozer would be phenomenally hard. The amount of work - gear & camera work is incredible.
I've now been looking for tirfor winch.
& your wife protesting about not dragging another tractor home - echoed my wife's sentiments as I pick up mid 90's Convertible Vitaras/Escudos from farms to tidy up.
Keep up the great work. 👏👏👏👏
😂 I can think of worse obsessions; rehabbing old machinery is a public service when you think about it😂
That was epic!!! On the way maintenance and repair. Classic Marty T to the rescue!!!
New Zealand is absolutely beautiful. Seems incredibly peaceful up in your parts.
Really enjoyed this video. Particularly interesting to me as we have a d239 in our International 685 tractor. Has had a recent rebuild and is now great!! Pulls and starts like a beast!! Love using it. Saw another UA-cam video of someone rebuilding one in America - he found that a previous rebuilder had got the air intake manifold gasket on upside down and the engine had been sucking dirt through a tiny gap!
Not sure where to park it? Marty, you have a mountain and equipment. Carve out more parking space. Extra for future use. You never know what you might need that space for ;-) Greetings from Texas.
I like that the loader has automatic mosquito repellent
Your driveway is quite the test track, if it makes it up, it’s a keeper. Loved the longer video. Thanks for bringing us along. Stay safe!
Thank you for the new video, been missing your repairs , sorry you get in a hot spot with the misses please keep going.
Ether…… otherwise known as tractor crack 🤣. Just bloody entertaining thank you!
It appears that the thermostat was probably a bypass type , if it was the coolant will continue to bypass the radiator when the engine is hot . The thermostat would have had a bypass valve that closed off when the thermostat opened
Great fun to watch Marty, thanks again for another save video. Gives you another class of machine for lifting and moving material!
Payloaders and Michigans were my starting machines, lol - eggs as stop leak I used in the army on apcs to fix leaks in the desert.
