I put WD40 on my cereal every morning, it really lubricates my inner bearings.

This is an underappreciated comment
Lol so this is why you're in the emergency room every day just to get out of work!
That's nice
🤣🤣🤣
Moline- I would use as is. If you ever quit using it, then restore it.
See if the parts are cheaper enough and availability and if is short clean it up now and if there is plenty of parts then use as is
I agree!
Agree. Leave it. Keep using it. Once you make them a show girl they dont get used or enjoyed. I've restored a few tractors and they just sit and get very little use. Keep a few in work close and get to run them and enjoy that probably even more.
Had a hired man once that couldn’t make the grease gun work after switching tubes, and it sure frustrated him like he was trying to solve e=mc2 and he gave up and grabbed another one to finish. He left for the day I needed it and popped it open and he’d never peeled the cap off. Thankful he didn’t get carpal tunnel from cranking on that thing so many times trying to prime it!
The highest praise possible from a Minnesotan: "It seems to do a good job."
Hey Zach thanks for the mention! I’ll help you with the MM next winter. I’m 100% under qualified with absolutely no experience on a tractor restoration 😂
Brian's Farming Videos 6.

It's regenerating the Particulate Filter in the exhaust. Goes into high idle to raise the exhaust temps to burn off the carbon the filter traps. Welcome to DEF systems.
CO Jones, was thinking it had something to do with emission control
@UCzCqqSDZ2TOQcW8ECE5j6nw Yep, you'll plug a DPF. Had it happen on a Hitachi 290 excavator, along with the tech putting the fuel filters in the wrong way causing the injection pump to grenade from some unfiltered diesel. It needed all 4 injectors and a top end rebuild after that.
Government juice
@@bossawesome90yt83 Nah, the high pressure injection systems give great economy, could do without the particulate filters though. Just have to go with
@@Ben-to4wd Ouch!
My vote is to restore the old tractor to what it looked like originally and still be able to use it around the farm, but sparingly. Great videos Zach!!
Zach Not only do you Share your Love of Farming You Share the Love of Family God Bless You All
Leave the Minneapolis Moline as is for now. You’re still using it.
“If it ain’t broke! Don’t fix it.”
Love the old Minnie Mo. Restos are a hard decision. My dad always said "they are only original once...."
Don't you have enough to do already?
John Deere skid,, two bolts either side of the door, whole cab will tilt up giving you access to the pedal area
That's how most skid steers are
New viewer.. Really enjoy watching. My granddad was a farmer in NE Kansas. Many happy memories from my 3 week summer visits. That was in the 60s. Now retired from public service (Oregon Public Health) and living in Texas near my daughter and 3 grandsons.
Use the moline until it doesn’t get used often anymore then restore it.
i second that motion. No point in repainting only to get bird poop on the shiny new paint!
I agree with these two
Looks like this oil change went better then a previous one
🤣🤣
Making small jobs look big....millennial style
I wondered if the filter had welded itself on the housing again... LOL
I thought the same thing when I watched this lol
Welker farms. Leg arms is the only one that actually does work. He’s the jack of all trades. They’ve started restoring their machines. I’m sure you could get local companies to come on board. They would get a ton of exposure with the viewership you have. Definitely do restorations man. I can speak for everyone. We’d watch!!!!
That is correct Deere’s idle high when they burn out the exhaust.
welcome to the world of "government juice"
Every diesel will idle high when it cycles to burn out the DPF... Sucks down diesel doing it, but saves the environment?
@@littlejason99 yeap, that's the B.S. they at the government try to peddle to us anyway, right?
Same thing in our Kubota
Yes it’s a DPF retune, diesel particulate filter re clean
The second you were talking about that Minneapolis Moline and asked if we new any youtuders that could help restore welker farms was the first thing that popped up in my mind
Leg arms
You should really get Welker's down and rebuild it with you.
Yeah that sounds like a leg arms project
Yes but his shop is kinda to green for them I think.
Same brother
When your machine starts burning out the exhaust, it will rev up. It’s completely normal! Just don’t shut it off when it’s doing it, let it run and complete it’s cycle!
I love seeing your beautiful little daughter in your videos. Enjoy her while you can, she will be grown and off with her own life before you know it. Make memories!
man when you get to the point where you use oil absorbent to clean up soda you know you've made it in life
The high idle was most likely the skid steer running a regen cycle. Anything with a DPF needs to do it from time to time, and it"s best to leave it running until it idles back down and cools off a bit. The exhaust system can get pretty darn hot!
My thought too but wasn't sure if it's an FT4 engine.
Powerwash it, wax it, paint the wheels. Leave the rest of it alone. It's only original once. Besides if you go all through it and paint it you won't want to use it.
Spray a layer of clear coat on it to stabilize the paint.
Fix your white truck seat with some brown Duck Tape to make it look better and save the under part of the seat. A clean fixed truck will always run longer and better!
I actually found this channel by watching Brian's Farming Videos! Watched every one of his videos, then jumped over here and working on catching up on all of these one! As a non-farmer who had a friend as a kid who's dad had a very small western PA farm, i would go for Hay season and help move around hay bales. Always loved that kinda work, but ended up becoming an Architectural Engineer, and found myself with a good ol desk job (when i'm not on site or with a client at least) These Videos have been absolutely a joy to watch, and my engineering brain loves the break downs on how the machines work. Really started back when watching the Hay Baler machine tie the knot on a hay bale all mechanical. no digital relays, sensors, nothing but metal and grease. It blows my mind that people came up with the mechanics behind that so long ago...
Keep up the great videos! Looking forwards to catching up on your videos so I can finally follow you on Instagram and not worry about the spoilers!
The only man that can still make " thats what she said" jokes funny
Drinking game. One shot for every “it is what it is”, “that’s what she said” and "are you ok?".
I would but in PA liquor stores are non-life sustaining businesses and closed. Me and the governor disagree.
@@esm1469 Sadly like many drugs, if your an alcoholic stopping drinking cold turkey can be hazardous to your health? Is there medical alcohol available?
Five shots for "Oh Hell, The Rubber Broke!"
Dont forget"what is that?"
im glad you share some of your conversations with your daughter its funny and adorable.
A 15 gallon oil catch cart would help keep your shop floor from collecting oil. A bulk oil system with a air delivery setup also save the trips back and forth to refill the tractor. We use an air pump to suck the used oil out and into a used 250 gal mini bulk. It all makes things simpler, quicker, and cheaper when you can buy in bulk.
Leave the moline alone! She's at her best in her work clothes!
well said, that is an immaculate tractor , paint would ruin it
Thats right. She still has gainful employment. Let her work.
I mean fix what needs fixing. But a complete restore is done at retirement.
Roy Templeton You are right keep it alone
Restore it up AND use it! We've done that to a David Brown 880, we've had it since new, still used every day! (Well in the winter anyway!)
Daddy little helper she is so sweet.
Tractors are made to be used. That MM is in great shape. I'm sure you'll continue to keep good care of it.
Deboss garage! & would love to see it restored but I’d rather see it working👊🏻 around and not made a princess.
Leave that tractor exactly like it is. Its earned every scratch, ding, and dent.
Yup, but keep it up mechanically,, they're only "original" , once.
O
I’ve been a tech for 12 years now, worked on jus about everything, got more tools than I no what to do with.....but the frickin Lock’n Lube is the GREATEST invention in the world!
*Me doing homework*
My brain: DON'T KLICK THE BUTTON
Me: *CLICKS*
My brain: NOOOOOOOO!!
Me trying to get chemistry and managerial accounting done. Chemistry tells me to take a break. Me sounds good 2 hours later still on break.
Worth it
Preston Searle that’s me with homework, work ,chores, and anything else I do.
Where I live school is done and I don’t have to do any more work.
Your skid loader may have been idling high due to a burn cycle for the emissions. I would look into it to be sure though.
Go through that Moline with your dad and keep using it. Me and My Grandpa try and go through one tractor every winter. Honestly some of the best spent time I’ve ever had. Keeps him young 86yrs and builds more memories for me. You will cherish every minute of it !
Don't forget to top off the head light fluid and check the blinker fluid. Also don't forget to put plenty of grease in the muffler bearing.
Love how the skid steer Regen confused him
I say go through the Moline and paint her up but don’t retire her. We had a Super M670 diesel on the farm. Excellent tractor. Dad and I restore a 1949 Massey Harris 30 standard that my Grandpa bought brand new. It’s a prize possession.
Only restore it properly. Good prep. Good paint. 👍😀🔥
Thumbs up for cleaning the drain pan after use. 👍👍👍👍👍
If it hasn’t ever been painted leave it as is...only original once. Thx
farmark restoration just makes it a dust collector ...Minnie Mo’s want to work
Its doing a re-gen of the emission system.
Don't shut it off when it's in a regen, it'll plug the filter then the dealer has to force a regen.
The skid steer was doing a regen. With you just moving equipment/totes/pallets with it you are not working the engine very hard so regens will be more frequent. When it does a regen it is best to leave it running at the high idle and not shut it off until it is done. We have had a lot of trouble with our newer Deere equipment due to hired help shutting them off while in the middle of a regen.
Skidsteer is doing a regen. Crank up the rpms and let it get hot to do a burn out. Starting it and shutting it off all the time and running it at low rpms will plug up the emission system.

I just watch a video called "John Deere employee responds to Right to Repair" yesterday, and if the info is accurate from the JD rep, you probably want to let the period of high idle complete without turning off the motor. Great video as unusual, thanks for sharing
J P You do. It’s running at a higher rev to create heat to burn off trash that builds up, or that’s the idea at least. Also know as “regen.”
YUP! just like the semis nowadays they need the regen time to burn off the excess exhaust.
Yes, Go through you older red and yellow tractor because it will always be your dependable tractor if everything fails. That will also make another awesome Video
her look at you when over bump was priceless lol
At our farm we call those skid steer trailer hitches a “wonder weenie”
1:56 "We learned that one time." I remember
We call those knowledge knots
Yep I remember that to
That Minnie Moe is probably just fine left as is. We have a 1968 Oliver 1650D that has never been restored. It is a wonderful machine, and it has its wear and tear, but it really doesn’t look bad at all for being 52 years old. Been shedded to an extent when not in use for most of its life.
It’s crazy because just watching some guy change oil filters is sooooo dull but I watch every second of your spring prep videos love it 👍
James Mcclaren speaking of changing oil filters you should watch the video where he changes the oil filter in the sprayer 😂🤣
Hey, I’ve got a rock picker too! I see it every time I look in the mirror.
Let Welker Farms rebuild that old tractor...Those guys are talented with that kind of work!
Don’t let welker rebuild it their case men if they go to a jd farm they will shit them selves
Anxious for updated rock picker video. Maintenance was a good teaser. My youngest daughter makes us watch it often. Pick good music again.
When we would have to do any major work on a tractor (tins off, split) we would repaint. Sandblast, wire brush and block sand all the tins.
I would leave the MM original! The high idle on the JD skid loader is definitely it going through a regeneration cycle, I wouldn’t recommend shutting it off while it is doing it, just let it run until it is done. Keep up the great content!
pretty sure the skid steer is running a re=gen cycle, seeing as it's late model
My exact thoughts
i'd turn it off and reboot it.............. ??
Re-gen? What is that?
@@rayopeongo a regenerative cycle to clean out the DPF filter. The filtration gets clogged so they shoot DEF fluid into the exhaust in front of the DPF filter to burn off the particulates trapped in the filter. Also, the acronyms are DPF Diesel Particulate Filter and DEF Diesel Exhaust Fluid.
It has a auto region on it my tractor at work has the same thing
The pause for tire air pressure in the rt was hilarious.
I vote that you restore the Minneapolis Moline, as it would be a restoration for a rare tractor. Plus your tractor (6175) can do the jobs the Moline use to do.
if anything rebuild the engine but keep the paint as is and for a youtuber that knows his stuff DEBOSS GARAGE is a good choice. i would recommend
It was running high idle Is because it’s getting rid of all the soot and cleans the exhaust filter it does the same thing on our new 2032R your welcome!!
I have to admit I’ve seen farmers use the grain cart like. Never I stood it only seemed redundant. But now totally makes sense.
I know im late to the party, but for the mm, i would rebuild, and still use it. Rebuild to make sure you can pass it on to your grand kids.
Its a regeneration cycle, the newer diesel engines have a "Catalytic converter" really just shoots fuel into the exhaust to get rid of soot, at the same time some exhaust is recirculated into the cylinders to reduce the burn temp, and reduce NO emissions, but that causes the diesel particulate filter to clog. The clean out requires a high idle to boost the temp in the filter, my truck does the same thing.
The Welkers would probably love to help you restore it!
You should look into getting crushed asphalt. As a diet guy I put it in a lot of driveways as an alternative to concrete or asphalt. It looks nice, and works great for keeping everything clean. You don’t need to track mud and crap in and out of the shop. I put it down in front of our shop this year and we have little to no mud being tracked in. Just a thought...crushed asphalt
Cool to see your Degelman rock picker! My Grandfather's cousin Wilf Degelman founded Degelman Industries in 1962 in Regina, Saskatchewan.
Nice!
Zach, I think restore the Moline. It seems like you have enough equipment to cover what the Moline does... I agree you can’t get rid of that tractor no way 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
It is doing a region it is cooking out all the soot out of the DPF
With as much attention to detail oriented as you are, I am surprised you just didn't stop everything and go fish that remote door opener out of the void lol.
The high idle is for the emmissions. If that machine sits for too long at idle it goes up to high idle to clean the dpf out.
cleaning the exhaust that's why it's on high idle and you're not supposed to kill it before it's done
Gotta Love DEF...
@@Star_Gazer_77 LOL, and how will this help the air if running engine longer to burn off the exhaust? 🤣
Hey, my dad restores old molines and older tractors, you can talk him into it lol, we are in Iowa
When I was growing up "mid 60s" we would remove the roller chains from the combine roll them up in a bucket put two big hand fulls or grease "no tubes back then" on top then a quart or two of oil and heat the whole thing up. Stir to liquify the grease then put away till next spring. The grease/oil got inside the rollers they were lubed! Very messy in the spring to get them out and ready to use.
I would say keep the Minnie Mo the same. Fix anything that may be broken, but leave the paint and things be. It looks nice.
I'd fix the Moline's problems and get it in good running order. Also, I'd clean it up really well but try to keep it as original as possible.
Hey zach. You mentioned briefly that putting concrete in your yard was really expensive. However have you ever considered laying down a few trucks of Crushed Asphalt?
Wouldn't last long in the Minnesota winters. Frost in winter turn into frost boils in spring, and that totally destroys the asphalt!
He’s talking about millings not paved blacktop. Millings are great
The tractor looks good as is. I would just use it. Whatever scars it wears were earned while the kids’ grandfather and yourself used it. I think it speaks much louder to them as is in the long run. I have a few restored old tractors but our favourite is still our first tractor, it has battle scarred original paint and a welded block but it’s an honest piece. Your dad’s tractor has stories to tell, new paint will erase the memories.
Use the Mighty Mo. I still use lots of things around here that would be trailer queens for other folks - I feed cattle each day with grandpas 1935 Chevy 1 1/2 ton truck. It’s paint is mostly gone but it still feels like grandpa.
Imagine being those kids. I bet they grow up thinking that every adult is talking to a camera all day xD
:)
“Rubbers all good. That’s what she said.” Zach Johnson 2020
Nice line of equipment. I hate to when stuff is dirty. Have a safe spring.
I would keep it as is until it needs work, then polish it up! However I think it would look pretty cool with the duals back on it like in the picture you shared not long ago!
Welker farms does a fairly good job at restoring equipment
To answer your question about the moline, restore it. It’s a nice tractor now but I think it deserves it. Plus that would make a great set of videos 😁
Nothing wrong with restoring the Moline AND continue using it for many more years on the farm.
Rebuild the Moline and keep using it. Stock up on the essential parts and treat it like any other vehicle you have. To let it fall apart or restore it and garage it, just feels like a disservice to that family heirloom. Can’t wait to see what you decide!
Or make it a sleeper tractor and race that thing. Haha
Honestly, restore the old Minneapolis to its former glory and keep using it 🤷🏼♂️
Yeah that’d be best
My Grandpa used to work on the paint line for Minneapolis Moline. I really enjoy watching that tractor on the channel.
Don’t turn it off when it’s doing that
Catalytic converter clean out
@@Paulman50 True, same on my Skoda SUV. Idle speed is a bit higher during cleaning, about 15 minutes. Tons of heat coming from the engine bay.
@@Paulman50 *DPF
Zake it's probably going through it's regen period, if so it will go to 2000 RPM, for about 10 to 25 min. And then automatically come to idle. I have an excavator, tractor, and skid steer that does that. No worries. Thank u for your channel.
It's cleaning out the converter and has to run around 1500 rpm for as long as the sensor says it's dirty and can last diffrent amounts of time until it senses that the convertor is clean. It's called a regen .
Filters are expensive, but nothing like the cost of an engine.
You should definitely restore that moline
Your high idle is an automated regeneration cycle. Basically the inlet and outlet sensors on your diesel particulate filter have identified the soot is building up in the filter, creating restriction, and a regeneration basically increases the exhaust temperature to burn the soot out of the DPF. The light inside was just to warn you the exhaust components are really hot during a regeneration cycle. Will likely take about 20 minutes, can sometimes last up to 40 minutes, and if it's still regenerating after 60 minutes, you might as well shut it down and call your dealer because you don't have the right to repair it. Think of a regeneration cycle as being the same thing as a self cleaning oven. It's just getting so hot it will burn anything and everything. So now you'll be trained to clean your oven in the kitchen! Kind of a simple theoretical system DOC > DPF > Catalyst - that gets really expensive at times because there are way to many wiring harnesses and sensors that when not working exactly as designed will cost you $3500 each time it needs repair. You'll learn it. We all do.
The skidder is re-gening. Don’t keep turning it on and off while it is doing that. I’m not sure about that particular model but on mine if you interrupt the re-gen three times in a row it will put the machine in limp mode and you will have to have a tech reset it. Love the videos! God bless!
The advertisement for Dakota micro cameras appeared during this video 😂👍
