500 THOUSAND subscribers! Well done Marty. You were the first UA-camr I ever subscribed to and you’re still the best! Your calm, knowledgeable, and gentle approach to dealing with issues is what we need more of in this world. I look forward to you reaching 1 million subscribers. 🇨🇦
Good on you Marty, you are one of the few You Tube makers who doesn't stare at the camera and talk. This makes you videos SO much more enjoyable and interesting. Keep it up!
How fortunate that your children have such a patient father to teach them. My dad was very similar and I use what he taught me every day. Our farm was my playground and there was never a dull day.
@@johnryder-g4i Truly so. For me it was my mother's Aunt & Uncle's farm. How fortunate I was to escape the city to their refuge every summer from 11-17yrs old. Totally shaped who I am & how I parent today.
Your knowledge of these old beasts is amazing, Marty. It's like you run a Last Chance Hospital for Old Machinery. Congratulations on the half million subscriber milestone.
500K!! WOO HOO!! Congratulations! Couldn't have happened to a more deserving person. Of course it's going to start. The video doesn't end until it does.
In over 40or 50 years of keeping old, balky and obsolete equipment running, my rallying cry is frequently: Twelfth time is the charm... I truly appreciate your equanimity and persistence.
For sure! My metal lathe went down Friday. Hoping today is the day it runs again, yet fully expecting to find another hurdle to overcome. 'Younger Me' would have been frustrated and threw wrenches. Now I keep a written list in the workshop, of projects to jump into. When I'm roadblocked on the current project, no biggie, roll right into another one. This M.O. keeps me calm and more productive😊 The best part is I consistently chip away at all those organization & improvement projects I'd otherwise never get to.
A most impressive technical analysis of the problem and determined, creative repair. Bravo! Very well edited and presented also. A real pleasure to watch. Thanks!
I enjoy these videos. My dad would fix something and say "Poor folks have poor ways"....He just liked fixing things that didn't need chucked in the bin. I do the same here in West Virginia
Who'd have thought! A simple shim made from a piece of cut out beverage can saved the day! Now, this is what I call ingenuity! I am always amazed how Marty can open up a part and immediately ascertain whether a particular component is as it should be or not. That is incredible knowledge! It is of no wonder that Marty gets so many machines back into working order as he has both knowledge and ingenuity. A rarer combination than we might think.
Oh btw Marty, you need to adjust your Stanadine Roosemaster fuel pump bc it's off a bit, you just start up the machine, let it run till it gets warm and whilst engine is running unscrew the 2 bolts lightly that holds the pump, then turn it slightly left or right to change the advance on it. It's one of those pumps you can adjust perfectly on feel!
Necessity is the mother of invention. Your creative shim and knowledge of how it should work is commendable. Always a good time watching you make silk from a sows ear. Thanks for sharing.
Marty and HIS Magical Hands Solved the Starting Problem, Dudes a Legend, Nothing Fazes You Fella, Pleasure to Watch, Common Sense and a Whole lot of Patience and Practical Skills, Enough Said..
" The patience of Job" some would say, and I'm one of them Marty, well done! So good to work on equipment that was designed to be repaired and not thrown away, isn't it?
Well done, next time give the COM a clean and grind an old hacksaw blade away to leave a couple of teeth. wrap on a bit of tape then you can clean the com slots out by dragging it backwards. As an apprentice I did loads for a car electrical company next to our unit.
Dear Marty T. 👍👌👏 Hooray ! 🙌 500.000 subscribers! Congratulations! 🎉 Very well deserved of course. Best regards, luck and especially health to all of you.
Wow, love it! Nice work Marty. Most people would try to source a new(er) starter, but you're like me, "nope, not happening, I'll get this working one way or the other" Thanks Marty
Not all of it was made to last though. I am sure higher % was but my grandpa tells stories how garbage most of the farming machines were from the factory. They had to improve most of them by themselves. The good ones are still here, the bad ones are long gone.
@@jonnenne Good comment but I don't fully agree because if most of the machines are working at 90% today, they were made to last forever. I operate a large number of them today. You just have to know how to treat them and they will be with you throughout your life and beyond.
Nice fix trick Marty, sprag clutches seem to have rules of their own under what conditions they'll work, sometimes hard to figure out, but you've cracked the code mate.
Fine job Marty T. Watching you work through a problem to a solution is a real treat for this old man. I'd say you are a very rare bird. Thank You from the US.
Always such a great job with the functional repairs. The only thing that I could appreciate more would be having parts sandblasted to have old paint/detritus removed, then repainted. Even if they don't end up working, it would be more visually appealing to watch a fresher looking part being worked on and seeing the grime removed. :)
Happy to see you back mate and showing us on how it’s done right many thanks for sharing this with us hope you are all doing well and staying safe mate
Marty - you are the epitome of the old saying - "the patience of Jobe" and serve as a reminder to those of us who are a bit - "rip s*** & bust" lol.. Cheers from the other end of the motu.
Good work with the Shim Sham. Wear on the Flywheel is down to it stopping at the same place so starting at the same spot. Take it out an relocate it is the usual response from a fitter but easier said than done. Back to work with the D9, nice.
Your the definition of the old adage if first you don't succeed then try try again. Well done as always two thumbs up. Your kids see you working hard and not giving up.
I was just thinking to myself it's been a while since I've seen anything from Mr T, refreshed the youtube and there you are, like magic. 500k subs, you must be doing something right. I can't remember when I joined your channel, but I do remember the Rambro videos, must be close to a decade now. Thanks for the content over the years Marty, you've kept the man stuff side of my brain happy for a long time.
Hi. Love your work. Nice to see old machines go back to work. Remember when working on starters to clean all surfaces. Even on bellhousing. They are often all bad eath-connections. Also check at the bushes. If you see "bubbels" cumming from between busches og endcover(earth conection) you have a bad conection.
You got lucky with the clutch in the starter being held together by a snap ring/circlip. Last one I worked on was crimped together and was quite a job opening up and putting back together.
A trick to get these sealed extra good (on top of what you already did) is to clean up the joint areas, give it a quick wizz with any random canned spray primer and after that, putting liquid tape with a mesh around. The mesh can be a bit of an old shirt. P.S. use kitchen gloves. Thicker, last longer. Got better grip too. Just remember to wash them before taking them off. Any powder type clothes detergent works.
I've repaired bad teeth on flywheels before. First you weld up the teeth & then you rough grind them to shape. Finally you take a file and finish shaping them. It will work if you pay attention to what you are doing.
Nice work !!! But how did you know that a soda can would provide sufficient shim thickness ? Did the shim take up the slack due to the missing thrust washer ?? Congratulations ! Half a million subscribers....monumental benchmark.
Hey Marty, remember when everything used to be made so it could be repaired?😊 Understanding how it's supposed to work helps as well. Here in the states we're fortunate to be able to pick up a lot of, even the older stuff, without to much trouble. I'll always try to fix before replacing as well. Thanks from Wisconsin!
She's been rode hard but it takes a tinkerer like Marty to keep it going ,well done Mate I never miss one of your Videos my best to you and yours ,well done on 500 thousand subscribers
Yet another brilliant effort Marty. People watching you do these repairs possibly donʻt appreciate how far away you are - not in distance so much, but in travel time, to get to engineering shops, parts supplies, etc (mind you, you are working on really old stuff so parts will always be a problem! 🙂) so your ability to ʻbush fixʻ stuff is pretty essential living where you are. As students, we once fixed a broken Humber 80 exhaust pipe with a beer can and some ʻborrowedʻ surplus No 8 gauge wire off a fence when the pipe broke going through the Shanendoah after a tramping trip up in your area... Interesting you initially put grease on the pinion throw out shaft. I was always taught to assemble them dry as any grease or oil caused a bigger problem long term with grit and dirt sticking to the pinion and shaft??? Maybe modern lubricants donʻt cause such issues or was that just a temp try at sorting?
@MartyT 1 day ago The workshop manual I have says they should be lubricated with silicone grease @MartyT 3 hours ago (edited) @31144 I know what you mean, it seems wrong to lubricate a part that is supposed to grab. I guess lubricant reduces wear when the clutch is freewheeling and gets in between the sprags to let them slide easily
Good fix. Reminded me of the guy in Zen and the Art of Motorcycle maintenance talking about using a soda can sheet as a shim on his bike, and the other guy getting upset because it wasn't an original BMW 'part'.

I probably will never take a bulldozer starter apart in my lifetime but if ever the opportunity arises I can look back and say Marty showed me how and to remember that if at first I don't succeed there's more than one way to skin a cat Great video !
Brilliant fix to that Sprague Clutch in the starter. Given the relative massive availability of parts like that and their low price here in the USA, no one ever needs to invent themselves a fix as you did. Stunning originality Sir! You are to be lauded for demonstrating some awesome field thinking. I have never had to do a fix like that because if I fall out of my front door I have already gone half way to the nearest half dozen parts stores.
I enjoy watching your videos because you get into the guts of it you recycle or re make the parts that most will buy from the parts store. If I'm going to learn anything it's gonna be from the true mechanics like you !
I just love these videos Marty! I've watched every single one, and the only "machine" you failed to get going was that old half-built submarine . . . which to be fair didn't have anything to start lol! Thanks for showing us DIY'ers how to diagnose and repair old equipment. I appreciate your expertise and patience enormously :)
Marty fine job buddy. The back of your startmotor. You can glue on a plastic cup so what foes not get it. I think Therese is support to be a bronse bearing. You can turn one in the lathe or drill. The play can ruin your one way bearing with wear.
Unbelievable knowledge…you solved the crime by the rules of deduction! Anyone else would’ve just bought a new starter motor. You knew what the operation of each part was supposed to do, and you figured it out. Well done.
