As someone who owns an automotive shop and works on cars all day, I appreciate your videos. Watching you trying to get that allen wrench in made my teeth hurt. I empathize. You give me hope. When I'm up against a car that's fighting me, I watch a video of you working on something up to your arse in bushes and thorns and lying in the dirt I find the strength to persevere with my hoist and well lit shop : )
@@taxesdeathandtrouble.1886 and someone to fix the generator and the chopsaw when they break...
Automotive engineers around the world were shrieking with rage when you were able to slide that throttle shaft out without dismantling the entire machine...
They didn't start making those types of engineers until 1999!
It is amazing to me how universal these problems are.
You mean dealerships around the world are shrieking. Dealerships want things so complicated and proprietary that you can't work on them and have to bring it in for work. Dealerships tell the manufacturers they need more money and the manufacturers tell the engineers to make it more complicated. John Deer is constantly working on software that makes it almost impossible to fix your own equipment.
Taking thigs one step further. Dealerships would have firstly charged you for plugged in a diagnostic computer to tell them you had low fuel pressure despite seeing the fuel peeing out of
the pump on to their nice painted floor 🤑🤑 Then replaced the sensors, ECU and all the wiring before finally deciding that it needed a new pump because its a sealed unit 😣😣
"What are we going to do today Brain?" "Same thing we do every day, Pinky, try and take over the world..."
Your methodical methods pay dividends again.
I think if I had been doing this job I would have taken the whole pump off and worked on a bench, thus causing myself a lot of extra work.
Marty wins yet again. Good man.
Yes, that would have been my first move too. Marty's the man for simple and effective fixes!
90% of the time if you hadn't of taken the pump off, you would have been all careful not to drop anything, then once you slid the shaft out, it would have hit the engine block on the last little bit, and not came out, then you would have half wasted that time, cause you have to pull the pump anyhow.
Agreed he's amazing at repairing his lost/found equipment, love his videos.
Terrific fix. Have to say in the first video I was worried that pump was leaking from the shaft and that would have been a lot more involved. Great simple fix in a tight spot. This is going to be a good machine.
Some nice work done here Marty - and no parts dropped - it was a bit of a cliff hanger watching the removal of those very small bits and pieces. Your deftness would come in very handy if you took up another career in bomb disposal!!! Thanks for the video - love the sound of that diesel.
Your meticulous patients is quite pleasent to watch! Very unlike the angry clumsiness that I associate with anything mechanical like that. You set a great example ❤
I thought I'd like to video myself fixing some of my old bits of gear. then I realised it would be mostly be me swearing and walking around looking for my tools
@@andyanderson25 😂 Exactly! That could be entertaining but I don't miss Orange county Choppers. If I was a father I would want to be like Marty.
@@andyanderson25 hahahha me too me too, and I have a very large yard to look for stuff
@@99cachorro Awesome!
most evenings i make a cup of tea and watch this machine wizard work its so satisfying
Hi Marty, just a tip for sliding O rings/seals etc over rough/sharp surfaces. - If you cut a rectangle of plastic out of an old soda/milk carton, grease one side and wrap it around the shaft, you can slide the O ring/seal over the plastic without risk of damage on rough/sharp surfaces. Then just slide it into its seat and remove the plastic. This works especially well for fork legs/hydraulic arms where the chrome may be pitted or corroded. :)
Good tip thanks
I admire the fact that you can work with small intricate parts in tight spaces and not drop or lose anything. I would be hopeless doing what you are doing.
Nice fix! Those O-ring kits sure are handy to have on the shelf for when you need them.
Through the years, I've been swearing looking for the right O ring, never to be found till I saw such a big kit at a car parts store.
Bought it on the spot for only a few bucks. What a game changer ! My DIY life now is good ! 😊
Yeah. If it's not the Chinese o-rings one that dissolves after some time in diesel care..
@@marcryvon and, you can always make the right size if it's an oddball, by grabbing one or two the right Thickness, slice and add or remove length, then CA glue the ends, even professionals do this in a bind in the field. It works , try it!
@@mcflapper7591 get the nitrile or Viton version, not much difference in price when you can get them, then you are good to go

I've just found your channel, so far today I've watched you fix 3 tractors, a fuel pump and attempt to get the terex running 🤣🤣
You and your wife have wonderful qualities to pass onto your children; patience, kindness, caring for others, etc. Everyone can see it through the work you do.
plus caring for machinery!
@@burlatsdemontaigne6147 absolutely! And a very good job at that! 😃
Tip. I have several pair of 11" long offset needle nose pliers. Have a 20 degree offset to them. I took a small chainsaw file and carved shallow grooves inside each tip leaving about 1/4" undamaged. They come in so handy for pulling pins. Gripping round stuff like bolts or shafts. Can also pickup amazingly heavy round items.
Great idea
Great work Marty. So many would take it to a mechanic. You show that with a open mind and the guts to try . You overcome most obstacles yourself. Only way to learn. I bet your kids will be just as good. Keep up the great work . Regards Andy Australia
The flies buzzing by, the roosters in the background, the birds in the trees...and I can feel the sun on your back, as you diligently work to fix something that was left for dead on the hillside. Job done, indeed, Marty. 👍
...Really a great (and peaceful) video to watch ✌
Marty, you can fix anything. That's a priceless gift in today's throwaway and forget it world.
I like when you show the camera what you've taken off and where it was from. It's like I'm here to help remind you if you forget
Glad the old girls being kind to your Marty awesome job as always
Very satisfying!
Amazing to see that you squeezed your hands, your eyesight, tools and even us via the camera into that tiny spot! Normally only one of these things would fit in there....
Thx a lot, great job!
:-D
This is a man who has spent countless hours looking for dropped screws, nuts, bolts, etc. That's the only way he knew to put a rag under the pump.🤣 Love these videos!
Nothing beats a good Marty t vid
Marty the great fixer strikes again. I look forward to watching you fix that exhaust leak.
Great save on this machine!
You saved us the from seeing the frustration of getting that return spring back on the linkage and shaft! When I saw that and where it was, I thought "Now that'll be a bugger..." Glad to see it ship-shape in the end.
There may have been some swearing while installing said spring
nice when its an easy and cheap fix also when you dont have to dismantle half the machine to get to the fix a good day allround.
Good Day Sir, From South Central Pennsylvania, USA
Marty that was pleasing to watch. I used to have hands like that but now it's not so easy. Between nerve damage from carpal tunnel, neuropathy and arthritis my hands are becoming unusable every day.
It's a maddening process to see the function of my hands slowly deteriorate and have no control or cure.
I'm 63 and retired so for now I can go slow and keep a good supply of pliers, tweezers and magnets handy. I approach everything I do as if I am going to drop it and plan accordingly.
Be kind to your hands. If you start having symptoms of carpal get it taken care of. I was in the military and they dinked around too long getting them fixed.
Nice fix on a beautiful old machine.
As always I'm looking forward to your next episode of "Marty, machine whisperer!".
LOL!
Cheers from South Carolina USA

I was 51 when heart issue was diagnosed, started taking meds for that, 3 days later the first of a serries of major strokes, still ongoing small ones daily almost 3 years later, left side semi functional but try holding and doing anything with a pair of pliers with my left hand and I would be better getting a 2 year old to do it. Luckily right side still functioning pretty good , but lots of things require two hands, left to hold, and right to do whatever . Talk about frustration... . Feel for you and anyone in similar situation
@@davidp8157 yep I feel for you too brother.
I have a good friend that I call my "Brother in junk". I have bought so much stuff from him over the last 20 years it's ridiculous. He has had cancer, prostate trouble and several strokes all in two years. I have seen him go from tinkering all day I the shop to sitting in a recliner. It breaks my heart because he can sit there at the window and look at all the stuff he was going to do. I call him every day and give him an update as to what I've been up to. He has 12 years on me but it's sad it happened so fast.
Yep, old sucks.
Cheers
Terry
I've got neuropathy in my feet and hands. As a mechanic I used to be able to reach in and do everything by"feel" now I drop everything and have trouble starting nuts on bolts
@@bryanpoole4749 the frustration is real. I've been a machinist/welder/mechanic since I was 14. No regrets though. What a ride.
@@bryanpoole4749 old age is a bugger, ( but better than the alternative)
Old age before you are( old, that is) is plain unfair
But
Whoever thought life is fair hasn't seen much of life....
Congrats Marty on finding out the pump leaked. good job repairing it.
When everything is against you - sheared bolts, space to work in, gummed up allen heads... Positive fortitude makes it work and it (again) reminds me of my childhood when it was possible to rebuild a Nuffield tractor gearbox in a farmyard in the freezing cold with whatever tools could be found; not me of course, my Dad. Great work Marty, loved the vid.
Kind of crazy how such a minor fault can cause such a huge problem.
Just goes to show how amazing airplanes or space crafts are put together where a micro scoping problem could cause a crash.
Planes basically built the same way but every part has a specified life and they're strictly maintained.
A doctor used an endoscope to check my age a few years ago, looked up my date. Nice fix bro and great video too. Safe travels
Normally, me fixing something like that would stress me out greatly. But watching Marty do it relaxed me. Thanks Marty.
Difficult and crappy place for repair and maintenance, but you've done a very good job, Marty.
Sincerely Tom
The place where old machines go to be put back into service without a fortune spent on the repairs. There are a few people like you in lots of places but there are so many more who just give up on the old iron because the shiny new thing they are looking at works faster and has lots more features. If they have unlimited money, or a way to make enough using the shiny new thing, then what they leave behind is still useful, you prove that all the time. I love watching you make old iron live again.
Frankly, I am amazed at your closeup camera work, very professional.
Excellent job 👍
Hello from Virginia, USA. We enjoy your content a whole bunch, sir!
Marty T, you have the Hands of a Surgeon 👍

The modern world couldn't function without O rings. Good job.
That was a fiddly job Marty,well done.👍👍
Great work Marty, fiddly little job that too especially the return spring.
Keep up the good work your videos are keeping me going after my hernia op
👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽🙃
I always find it amazing that it is usually the tiniest pieces that bring down the giant machines.
Thanks for sharing Marty. You have such a quiet way about you, it's a pleasure to listen. I enjoy what you work on. When I was healthier this is what I loved to do as well. Hopefully I will be able to do something again in the near future. Thank you for sharing these videos with us it is a real pleasure to see a little bit into your life. Thanks again, Bob from Virginia USA
Great video! Its not a leak its just automatic frame rust preventative. The older machines seem to have it not the new ones lol.😂
Marty MacGyver...another brilliant fix!
Great to see you making progress with it. I don't envy the trouble you'll have to face just getting it into a position where you can finally tension the tracks, but I wish you all the best with it 👍
Grown to love your videos watching you get all this machinery working.👍⛏️🇦🇺😊🙋
One of the only times i dont mind watching an endoscope being poked up from underneath 😂🤭
this mans fettling skills are legendary :) well done Marty !
You continue to amaze me, thanks for having the foresight to allow us into your process
The power of a little O-ring. Excellent find.
Well done Marty great investigation and a rubber gasket a couple of cents.
Marty sure has patience and a steady pair of hands.
Nice work Marty. Job done for pennies.
Good job Marty! You are raising the bar on video entertainment, cheers
Yet ANOTHER satisfied customer for a job well done! It's ALWAYS a veritable treat to see Mr. Wizard (Marty T) @ work once again!
Hi Marty! At 3:56 it’s almost like you are my dentist gently digging out the last 6 months of impacted food from my molars! Those little mirrors they use could be handy for you. Okay now I’ll continue to watch you discover the problem and fix it with whatever you have laying about. 👍🏼
My god you bloody know you’re stuff mate amazing work
Was pleased to see you could make the repair without removing the pump. 🌟😎
You sir are an extremely lucky man to find and have simple fixes for all your equipment
Great job Marty look froward to seeing how the dozer goes as you bring it back to life. Your drive, knowledge and skills to keep the older machines running in such a 'throw away' world is a pleasure to watch. We need more people like you mate keep it up. (watching from Australia)
Another brilliant o-ring fix. I am convinced o-rings should be included in every man's toolbox alongside WD40, duct tape and a hammer.
All done without the trademark black gloves too..!!
Marty we love your videos and you have a wonderful family! My husband believes you could fix anything with a nut and bolt.
i find it delightful to get a wink and a nod from a design engineer long gone that understood three dimensional thought and the significance of servicing a moving part with human hands. thank you
Good job Marty, you seems to always have the fix
Damn fine work there Marty , you make great videos, I know how much work that there is to make these videos , well done.
Great, job, Marty! Thank you for giving us an update on this beautiful old, girl!😀👍
not sure what is more amazing, got it apart, got it reassembled, didn't lose any parts, fixed problem... impressive.
Fixed the Fuel Pump - Congrats and it was only two O-Rings ! Brilliant Job - we love Watching You Work ! Many Cheers from us in Australia - well done !!!!
This and Cutting Edge Engineering are two of my favourite channels.
They are massively different and simultaneously and the same.
Thanks.
Your amazing iron work skill sir
Great work man! Very methodical approach saved TONS of labor. As other comments allude to, most would taken the whole pump off. You did great work there - where I would've lost a couple screws to the belly pan.
Cheers to all!
Nice job, Marty!
Yay!
Oh why do I find this so dam interesting, 6am sat morning coffee in bed watching a d9 fuel fix , best way to start a weekend , while wife is on tic toc something rotting her brain ,, feeling wise and manly now ,, keep it up ,, wife wants to see you fix a vacuum or blender , ,,, she’s gone now
This wife watches and tries to fix her own tractor, I introduced my husband to Marty, and now he shares his videos with the guys he works with.
I see you left out all the swearing while trying to get that Allen screw and spring back on ... 🤣🤣😂😂 Jim Bell (Australia) Thanks for the vid.
Very easy fix, just a very tight spot. Nice.
Well done Marty!🍻 Cheers!!
Great video but I still look forward to and enjoy your longer videos
Great job Marty! You've got the patience of Job. Thanks again for your time today. Enjoy your weekend.
Marty,
I have been following your videos for some time. You never cease to amaze me. Maybe it is because we are a lot alike salvaging what others give up on, but you my friend take it to a whole new level. Awesome video my friend
Well done . Now it can slowly gather oil and soil like it should. (no diesle wash)
Fantastic field repair, mate. Great job!
Excellent video Marty T :) glad simple parts tune up fuel pump and no more leaking we all hope next fix exhaust leaks also dozer need fix up on !
Felt like I was watching surgery. Marty does it again, good job mate!
Omg. It keeps getting progressively finicky. Mad props to you. Stuff like this takes the patience of a saint.
Like a brain surgeon, steady fingers in tight spaces, don't drop any tools in the patient.
Excellent work as usual Marty, engine sounds great. Cheers from Texas * * *
Central time it’s the perfect time to watch to start the morning
Another fine program, Thankyou Marty .
Nice result Marty. Step by step it is becoming nicer and nicer
Nice and amazing job 👍 waiting for turbo install
Cool Marty. A mechanic’s hands that double as a surgeon 😊 Great fix, and no robotic assistance needed.
The Parts Swappers would have wanted to sell you a whole new pump! but sometimes its the simple things that need fixing!......a little bit of patience and thinking and it was done! way to go!
Dear Marty T.
👍👌👏 Extremely well done again and as always (video and work). This repair was a great success (only 2 tiny rubber o- rings were needed). Congrats! It definitely paid out that you searched for the leak meticulously before removing anything. So the effort was relatively small to fix it. I'm always astounded how well/strong the engine of this old workhorse sounds.
As always: Thanks a lot for making teaching explaining recording editing uploading and sharing.
Best regards luck and health to all of you.
Good job! I like watching your videos, common sense diagnoses, and simple repairs.
Great job, you got a lot of patience my friend.
You always amaze me by what you do and do not do…
Your up really late, it's 10pm here in Tasmania, you should be in bed.( Actually it's really nice to get a late night Marty t video)
10:04pm here in Queensland
@@tylerr676 I don't think the midnight oil would ever pull Marty up
Marty T: sledgehammered the top of this pump. I don’t know why……
Me: watching his deftness with fiddly bits…
Get me my sledge a few good whacks never hurt.
