Hose clamps with stainless steel bands and mild steel worm screws. I used to see this routinely while surveying boats - bands that looked brand new, with worm screws that had turned to powder. On hoses leading to below-waterline openings, it was asking for disaster. I used to carry a small magnet - some stainless is magnetic, but virtually all mild steel is: I used to check each clamp and recommend replacement if I found a magnetic worm screw. I always took a magnet with me when I was shopping for my own clamps.
@@wranglerstar Woo Hoo I knew all that useless information rattling around up there would pay off one day lol I will gladly take all the useless stuff you do not want in that lot of stuff as I can put it to use....
I would like to buy them from the guy who sent them, if he sells them? Does anyone know if he's a reseller? ALso, if anyone get's a link for the guy (if he has one), will they share it here, please? Thanks!! Thanks in advance Cody, Mr.W or anyone who helps. :) :) :)
I watch these videos as I work at a metal salvage yard and we get old wooden boxes of old steel odds and ends and occasionally some brass ends up there but it’s amazing to see how someone saved all these things for years and now another person is just as eager to get rid of it. Times are different
You were very fortunate to have a wonderful grandfather and someone who valued every penny and understanding keeping things for use on a future project Cody. I love the term Time Capsule for your Grandfather’s salvage items to share with us. And now you are doing the same thing!
My Father once bought a 5 gallon bucket of miscellaneous bolts, nuts and washers at an auction, for a few bucks. Then when we got home my brothers and I spent a few evenings sorting through it all and wiping them off with some old rags because they were absolutely filthy with grease, oil, and probably 20 years of dust. You can imagine we weren't very impressed with the wisdom of my Father in his purchase. So more than a decade latter I managed to twist the head right off a valve cover bolt on my car. It was too late at night to find a ride to a store that might have the right sized bolt. My Father showed me which drawer to look through and sure enough I found a matching bolt that I had sorted and cleaned up a bit in my youth.
Awesome, The house im living in was built as base housing in 1941, the family I bought it from the dad bought the house in 1946. He was a communication guy at Cape Canaveral but he fixed TVs on the side the best part of the house for me is his tip shack, and the A/V shop I have been going through all of his boxes mostly small electrical dealeos but he was an old school guy and had a bit of everything for fixing everything I didn't know the gent but his kids wanted nothing to do with the house so I got it for cheap. I love stuff like this!
I’m almost superstitious about extra hardware, if you have it on hand especially if you didn’t pay anything for it then you probably won’t need it. If you don’t want to mend a garden hose, you probably won’t have to, if you have the kit!
The two things with cardboard tube are carburetor power valves (at around 5:30) and the other item you thought might be a pressure gauge sending unit is an automatic transmission vacuum modulator (at around 8:30) Love the time capsules........yes a few of us watch them. My father was the same way so it's fun to see things very similar in nature.
My dad used to keep brass and other metal parts and he would go to salvage yard and sell it by the pound and make a few bucks. Don’t know if you know that . People probably still be there today. One man’s trash is another man’s treasure. And this is a treasure to watch and see some real things made in the United States of America 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🎥
I have my Dad's old boxes and cans that he kept, and they are full of ' little things' from his shop. It's amazing how many times, when I need something unusual, I'll find it in his cans. He's been dead for 26 years and I'm still using his stuff. It's like finding treasures. :)
Spark plugs, pcv, hose clamps , and vacuum valves. Those are the NOS of the future. I have a Ford 8N with a Flathead Ford Straight 6 in it that still uses the oil sending unit and has a vacuum advance on the distributor. 70 years old and still running strong. Your discard pile looks like my storage cabinets. One mans trash. 😆
If anyone told 20 year old me that I would one day enjoy watching a man sort through a junk drawer (As I call them) I would have shaken my head as I laughed and walked away. Thank you Cody, you are a gift, a rare and wonderful gift.
The first hose repair kit had a flat plate that turned the inside part into the hose, sorta like a screwdriver. It fell out of the plastic package when you opened it up.
I have tons of that stuff in my shop from the old guy that retired. He saved everything, I saved all that little weird stuff he had and tossed everything else
I had something similar from my stepfather, I've got his old socket set that he bought during his posting to Germany while he was in the RAF it's about as old as i am (50)
My wife had this old plastic tray that went into a drawer for rings and bracelets. She was throwing it away, so I comendeered it. Works great for organizing the various sizes of hose clamps. Is
One of the beautiful things about youtube is connecting people who have things with people who need things. I bet 805roadking or shopdogsam could make use of some of those spark plugs and stuff. Jeff at Elderlyiron too.
Love that old stuff. That rotor reminded me of a 71 dodge I had. In damp weather it didn't run right, unless I dried and cleaned the points, rotor, and cap.
"Mrs W gave me the side-eye." I guess that's more polite version of "stink eye." Great video. Please have more videos of Mrs W gardening, cooking, canning, etc. Your family is a rare jewel that you kindly share with us. :)
The real problem with throwing something away that you think you will never use, is that once you throw it away a week later you need it and it's already in the Dump. Four instance I had a shower chair sitting in the shower for four years and my wife said do something with that so I have been trying to get rid of stuff and clean out the garage. Well to make a long story short I threw it away and I just had surgery and could use it in the shower. Go figure it's only been thrown away for two months
It's amazing how much material mice and rats can move in or redistribute all over a space. Got some leave time went over my grandmother's, who's living alone now that grandpa has past. Grandpa had finished/insulated the garage and done a lot of wiring, he was a mechanic and spent a lot of time out there. It was kind of his private space, anyways the rats had pulled 2/3rds of the insulation out, smelt burning, found some destroyed wires, and had to rip out just about all the work he had put into that garage, man that was rough. Funny thing is that i had no reason to go into that garage, just had a random strong inclination. Maybe gramps was pokin me and sayin hey my garage is a mess, clean it up :D
Hey Cody, I haven’t finished watching this video yet, but maybe it’d be a good idea to do a quick show of all the stuff you’ve organized at the end of a video or something? Just to see what ol’ grandads Legacy has built up to be. Edit: all those copper deals on the plugs would be worth keeping and tossing in a copper pile and melting down.
Knew about the distributor because my old Carpet Cleaning van i'd always have to take the dog box off and mess with it with some sandpaper to get it to make contact again.
LOL, so the unknown valve right after the pcv valve was... another pcv valve. XD The little hex headed metal dealies you found paced in opposite ends of a cardboard tube are, if memory serves, power valves for Holley carbs. If they have a male spade terminals on the big end they're temp senders. I know I've dealt with those somewhere, almost positive it was carbs. The dist rotor was from an inline six, wanna say GM, but Ive seen identical or near identical units in Ford & AMC sixes up to the start of the changeover to high energy ignition systems. Wouldn't surprise me if you were to find a "FO MO CO" or Ford oval stamped somewhere on that oil sender bell. Could be Delco, but I'm thinking Ford, probably an FE motor.
"And people watch that?" Yes Mrs. W, turns out that there is lots of guys who have bins just like this and we all should be out sorting our own instead of watching someone else do it on YT. But we just can't help it. We're all watching like.... yeah yeah yeah I save those too! Keep up the good work.
electric motor brushes mate with the "commutator" to change polarity to the armature windings. I actually built an electromagnetic motor back in high school. Cool video
Whenever i get them good clamps i always hate to use them, pretty hard to come by nowadays. I always like the good stainless fuel injection style, less likely to strip or cut the hose
You probably already chunked it. I don't know how long ago you recorded this, but you should save those copper spark plug protectors. They might make a nice feral on the end of a chisel handle. If it doesn't work for that the scrap price for copper is real good. I always keep a bucket of scrap copper around the shop. A full bucket will buy the family a nice dinner on the town.
5:28 in are power valves for a carburetor, not electrical
8:25 in is a transmission vacuum modulator

Yep power valves for a holley carburetor.

3:15 old plugs are good, quick and easy to check for spark
5:05 holley power valves
8:40 transmission modulator
11:50 vacuum delays
11:50 i think those are fuel filters for small engine's?

Love the time capsules........yes a few of us watch them. My father was the same way so it's fun to see things very similar in nature.
The items in the cardboard at 5:24 are power valves for carburators
5:28 are for a carburetor I think those are power valves
AAARHHHHHH!! ...I enjoy these "Time capsule" videos so much.
The 2 things in the cardboard tube are Holley carb power valves. I imagine the tube was just to protect them.
Yup! Good call, that’s what I believe too.
The "electrical thing" with the cardboard tube is a power valve that goes in a carburetor to enrich the mixture under low vacuum conditions.
My dad used to keep brass and other metal parts and he would go to salvage yard and sell it by the pound and make a few bucks. Don’t know if you know that . People probably still be there today.

8:25 in is a transmission vacuum modulator
it has nothing to do with oil pressure it makes transmission shift smother
I have my Dad's old boxes and cans that he kept, and they are full of ' little things' from his shop. It's amazing how many times, when I need something unusual, I'll find it in his cans. He's been dead for 26 years and I'm still using his stuff. It's like finding treasures. :)

A holley
Yes they are just had to replace one on the holley I put on my truck
i like how you like the gloves. sometimes its not about the big shiny expensive tools. sometimes it's the little things. things you take for granted.

We are cut from the same cloth,
The first hose repair kit had a flat plate that turned the inside part into the hose, sorta like a screwdriver. It fell out of the plastic package when you opened it up.
Yay for the gloves! Haha. I’m very glad you like them.
Brad ya gotta post the link for them so we can get you credit!
I'm glad this wasn't one of those things people say they might do more of but that never happens. It was a lot of fun to watch last time.
I have tons of that stuff in my shop from the old guy that retired. He saved everything, I saved all that little weird stuff he had and tossed everything else
I love these time capsule videos. They remind me of going through my Grandpa's shop when I was younger.
That's not a "blinker deal" it's a instrument panel regulator. Probably for a Ford, it was used to drop the voltage to the 6v gauges in a 12v system
I had something similar from my stepfather, I've got his old socket set that he bought during his posting to Germany while he was in the RAF it's about as old as i am (50)
I love these time capsule drawer videos. Keep em' comin!!!
Let Mrs W know that these are indeed enjoyable videos. FWIW, I still replace damaged garden hose couplings.
Me too.
me three.
You should save the spark plugs to build some toy cars. Thanks for your videos nice content as always
That’s a wonderful idea
I did the same thing a few years ago with a bunch of coffee cans my dad saved stuff in. Fun isn't it.
those one way valves are good for putting on the end of a siphon hose so you just bounce it up and down in the gas and it sucks it up
My wife had this old plastic tray that went into a drawer for rings and bracelets. She was throwing it away, so I comendeered it. Works great for organizing the various sizes of hose clamps.
Is
incredible that i just watched a 15min video with a guy sorting an old assorted box, and i enjoy it!
That thing you didn’t know is a vacuum modulator for a C4 or borgwarner auto transmission!
I love going through old bins. The mouse bedding hid each item like a suprise.
One of the beautiful things about youtube is connecting people who have things with people who need things. I bet 805roadking or shopdogsam could make use of some of those spark plugs and stuff. Jeff at Elderlyiron too.
The item at 8:35 looks like an automatic transmission modulator unit.
Love that old stuff. That rotor reminded me of a 71 dodge I had. In damp weather it didn't run right, unless I dried and cleaned the points, rotor, and cap.
That thing you thought was a pressure sender is actually a vacuum modulator for an auto trans.
Love these videos
A lot of memories!
Edd China gloves? ..... and you're right, we DO love this sort of thing!
As men we love our gauges and switches
It's why I love being a pilot
That heater cord thing looks like a metal Collet for water pipe fittings on the farms only now they are nylon plastic
I turn all the gauges I added to my BMW so the needles all point at 12:00 when all is working correctly... which it usually isn't .....
"Mrs W gave me the side-eye." I guess that's more polite version of "stink eye." Great video. Please have more videos of Mrs W gardening, cooking, canning, etc. Your family is a rare jewel that you kindly share with us. :)
Its a rotary button. Thats what goes on a distributor that throws the spark. I still use them. 71 ford truck 302.
Mrs W might never understand. I love these videos. We men love to keep bits and pieces to save a visit to the store.
I love finding boxes like this. Great little video thank you!

That distributor part is called a "rotor" if i'm not mistaken.
Great video the things in the cardboard sleeve were power valves for a carburetor
I would have kept the spark plugs. They can be used in B&S motors..
Pcv valve are commonly installed in the valve cover
Awesome! I love when old series resurge. Great stuff!

porcelain from spark plugs is great for breaking glass in a pinch. just a small piece will shatter a windshield

electric motor brushes mate with the "commutator" to change polarity to the armature windings. I actually built an electromagnetic motor back in high school. Cool video
I was really surprised that you knew what some of those part were.
Around 850 the item is a vacuum modulater for a automatic transmission.

Whenever i get them good clamps i always hate to use them, pretty hard to come by nowadays. I always like the good stainless fuel injection style, less likely to strip or cut the hose
Rather than throw out those spark plugs, offer them on EBay. Some of them may be hard to come by for owners of older engines.
I'm 33 and knew that was for a cap and rotor. Guess I really am old
3:14 that's called a rotor button
The parts in the tube look like power valves for a carburetor
Fixed my gArden hose 6 times so far still works great

Good stuff. Lots of value in those clamps. More value in Granddad's life lessons. I think the brushes ride on the commutator.
You should do a video on how you made those little spark plug cars. Seeing as you have all those extra plugs. Love the time capsule videos.
Blast from past”... kept me watching!
Those metal ends with the cardboard tube look like an old fuse holder
Always fun to rummage through old stuff
More please !
Keep the spark plugs for the spark plug cars you we thinking about making a few videos back!
I forgot about this, pulling them out of the trash now,
Those are actually filters for your fuel line on small engine
THESE VID's ARE FUN - BRINGS BACK A LOT OF MEMORIES
