From experience when an engine first moves, then completly locks up, it's one of 4 things: 1. Its rusted to hell and back, in that case, take the head of and gently persuade the pistons with a wirewheel, a Hammer and a Block of wood. 2. You are the genius that locked an engine into the point 0, it's a mess to make a turn happen again, dunno about the english term but in german it's called the "Nullpunkt". 3. The engine compresses water, but that Doesn't really lock it, it feels springy. 4. It overheated at one point and the pistonrings are now married to the block till death take them apart... Hope i wrote something useful for the make it happener out there, over and out.
Get a hone and hone out the bad hole make some hold downs for all three liners and get it to turn over grind the valves on all three cylinders and put it back together
I always undo the alternator belts unless they are needed for other functions, as alternators have a tendency to get stuck due to their ventilation holes.
My neighbor up the road has a diesel junkyard. You could make will it start videos for years up there! Good video! I bet that machine could run again...
Could it run again? Sure could, but is it worth the time and money if you really have no use for it? Would make for great UA-cam content and we all would love to see it . But I would think the engine will need pulled and the more you dig into it the worse it would get till you're doing a full rebuild on it
In case you want to use vinegar or any other acid in an open cylinder, you can soak a rag or a paper towel and apply it again the cylinder wall (and cover it to avoid evaporation). You can also use a bottle to sandwich your rag...
Seems like a good little loader. Would be a handy little unit for lots of stuff . Worst case scenario it doesn't seem like it would be vary complicated to do a motor swap. A 4bt Cummins would sit great in there by the look of it
That is why you should always put a coffee can or soup can over the exhaust pipe and intake pipe if exposed when storing it. Once water get's into the engine your screwed and it seems that thing has been getting water in it for a long time.
I'm a believer in marvel mystery oil, I have freed alot of seized engines with it. May take a week or 2 but I would bet it frees up. What do you have to lose?
The earliest thing to do is take oil pan off unbold the position rod take a bottle Jake wood and either pop the piston up or take the hole sleeve with it and replace that and possibly the bearings. Or after sleeve and piston out take it to a press and push it down and hone it out
Wouldn’t it be advisable to remove the belts incase the water pump is stuck or take out the starter motor and lever the flywheel with a bar. Fairly obvious I would have thought.
In order to try to pull the piston and liner, you'd have to drop the oil pan and disconnect the connecting rod, and attempt to knock the piston out from below. Then attempt to putt the liner. Better eat your wheaties!
If you can get a needle scaler where you can use it on the wall and top of the piston then soak that piston good. Just remember that engine has an air box down the side that it breathes through. If you get flammable liquid in it a runaway condition is very likely when it starts.
Those Hamilton farm yahoos,(''HOW 'BOUTCHA?''), would've turned the fan clutch thing with a crescent wrench and if you don't believe that they get real upset and let you know, HOW 'BOUTCHA!??
Pull the blower off and check the ports for cracks. Judging by the lack of that end pistons movement the big end bearing there is gone. I doubt the whole machine is worth the value of fixing it.
What a crowd of bodgers! Try to undo a head bolt with a length of pipe on a Ratchet! It's perfect clear from the outset the piston(s) are rusted in the bores. Even if they did get it started the debris from the bores would get into the oil and do the bearings a world of no good! Complete engine strip, At least a hone and new rings, maybe a rebore and os pistons. But I suppose this is American consumer society, take a perfectly usable machine, abandon it, "Oh it's broken, buy a new one"! Doh!
Will it start is stupid…. It will not work under load or be worthwhile without a chunk of money and a rebuild. All these Jerry riggers with ideas of what to pour in the cylinders don’t build engines. Not trying to condescend but it’s just hard to watch people waste time on an engine without saying something
What should we do with it now??
Definitely get it Going!
Not needing it you wouldn't be at fault to not good any further.
If you decide to carry on, I'll be waiting to see the next vid.
Get it going you can find some neighborhood projects to make money with it
Throw it in the dumpster
Get it going! Clean it up as good as you can. Those other two cilinders wil run. 💪

This is what I call a P and D project. Patience and Determination.
The "Ol'2stroker" channel has all the tricks, tips and techniques to revive these detroit diesels. (and the beer!) Cool piece of old machinery.
Proper funnels are worth their weight in gold
Get a hone and hone out the bad hole make some hold downs for all three liners and get it to turn over grind the valves on all three cylinders and put it back together
Fix it, get it running !
I always undo the alternator belts unless they are needed for other functions, as alternators have a tendency to get stuck due to their ventilation holes.
Get-r going boys!
Thank you for ,another great video, i learn a lot 👍👍👍👍

Is that an invite?

Hopefully you guys can get this running again would be great to see this operate again.
Soon…
I remember it running when we built the derby cars. We moved them around with it! Around 2009-2010. Nature hasn't been kind to it over the years.
Cool revival those 55A series aren't too common anymore, so it's neat to see some being video and saved, or someone attempting.
It will be saved!!
Seems like a good little loader. Would be a handy little unit for lots of stuff . Worst case scenario it doesn't seem like it would be vary complicated to do a motor swap. A 4bt Cummins would sit great in there by the look of it
A 4bt would be nice but expensive compared to a full in frame on this!!
The series 2 are some of my favorite by grandpa has a 85 and a 75 series 2
A buddy of mine likes these loaders
This could be made running. Go for it. It's man's work
check the blower had one lock up in a dynahoe backhoe could not get it to move at all pulled the blower rolls over free now.
That is why you should always put a coffee can or soup can over the exhaust pipe and intake pipe if exposed when storing it. Once water get's into the engine your screwed and it seems that thing has been getting water in it for a long time.
Yeah, what do you do when a tree falls and knocks off the muffler though 😬
Amazing 👏👏
Rough ball hone, then smoother one and lots of Kroil and time. Even some propane heat…..be just fine!
I seen the Ginop sales sticker on the Kubota my dad bought one from them too
Small world!
Oh man, that 3rd piston. Tough when ya can't get her turning over and maybe running, but sometimes they're too far gone and need way more work.
I think we’re gonna try on this one!!
@@dieseJL nice! Its worth it in the end when you hear that engine roar back to life, just a huge sense of accomplishment and a hit of dopamine lol
Pull the blower drive off and see if that helps, Detroit's are known for the blower sticking after sitting for a while.
It was interesting. 👍
Pretty good of Justin Verlander to come out and help with this project right in the middle of baseball season....
He’s a good pitcher and an ok cameraman
Water damage normally only occurs because there was no rain cover on the exhaust!
Yeah we didn’t mention it but the tree knocked off the exhaust
call the guy on the Detroit Diesel channel. Awesome mechanic.
Sounds like it is in gear.

I used MM to free a stuck engine in a CX500 Honda.
Nice loader and what is the other thing in the brush next to backhoe
The other wabco?
Put a nail hole in top of cap and it will be easy putting liquid in motor
The earliest thing to do is take oil pan off unbold the position rod take a bottle Jake wood and either pop the piston up or take the hole sleeve with it and replace that and possibly the bearings. Or after sleeve and piston out take it to a press and push it down and hone it out
Take the starter of and try to spin it over useing a pry bar on each of the teeth on the see if it turn over there.
This is a really great idea I hope he tries it
Clean

Yeah it’s going to be FUN
diggle ball hone an brake cleaner..good luckto find out how bad it needs a rebuild..
Nice
Dr X is the best product to remove rust
Looks like the stuff I put in my body
Evaporust soak the cylinder?
If you can get a needle scaler where you can use it on the wall and top of the piston then soak that piston good. Just remember that engine has an air box down the side that it breathes through. If you get flammable liquid in it a runaway condition is very likely when it starts.
How are the Hands after the ACETONE BATH 🥴
Que lindo que suena eso!!!!!!
Use PB BLAST TO LUBE THE CYLINDERS
❤❤
I freed my 353 it ran briefly but then then draged a liner 😭
Get a bore home and go up and down. That will remove the rust and free the piston.
Como seva a mover el sigüeñal si el motor debe estar engranado a la caja de cambios
Those Hamilton farm yahoos,(''HOW 'BOUTCHA?''), would've turned the fan clutch thing with a crescent wrench and if you don't believe that they get real upset and let you know, HOW 'BOUTCHA!??
Could the transmission be in gear shopping the rotation?
The driveshaft spins freely, we did check that 🤣
It's a 1964 Michigan 55III.
Pull the air horn off the blower and see if the rotors are broken
muito bom!
Olá my friend Brasil ⚽️

Looks like a 453 diesel
Somebody start up the weedeater
They are forklift licensed 😵😵😵😵😵😵
Pour a bottle of coke cola in it and let it sit for a week. It will eat the rust.
🦁🤔
Put a hone in it tap it with a block of wood
Pull the blower off and check the ports for cracks. Judging by the lack of that end pistons movement the big end bearing there is gone. I doubt the whole machine is worth the value of fixing it.
I was worried about that too. We will see!
WATCH SOME HAMILTONVILLE FARM WILL IT START VIDEOS. / DIESEL CREEK
Smack the Piston with a hammer
Dump some marvels mystery oil in it and let it sit
Big chunk of wood and a hammer beat on the piston till it moves.
It’s at bottom dead center, would have to go up from the bottom 😓
Contact if not want it matt from Diesel Creek
It’s funny he just started one of these in that dragline 🤣
Get a hone and run it up and down
I needs more than that 🤣🤣
its in gear maybe

Muita conversa e pouca ação
They all can't be winer's !
Don't worry..... we'll be back at it on this one!!
Do you think it's worth fixing can you make money with it
Too bad on that rusted piston
