The dealership mechanics did their job as they are expected to.... they steered the customer to the new sales department.
:))
As an underpaid dealership tech, you couldn't be more wrong.
Sales makes 3-5x what we make a month.
Fuck sales.
@romulusxyz6722 "Sales makes 3x to 5x what we make a month."
Yeah, that's pretty typical of what it's like here, too.
That's why the dealerships want their "underpaid mechanics" to steer customers with repair issues toward the sales department. Sales brings in more revenue.
If they aren't doing that where you're employed, you are the exception, not the rule. And that's good to hear.
@@jackreisewitz6632 Eh I guess I was pretty brash in my reply. I've been a mechanic for about 2 years now, left the IT field after 16 years for something new. That being said, I don't know as much about it as I sounded like I did, sorry man.
But fortunately my company doesn't push us towards sales, it just pisses me off how much more they make.
I'm a watercraft mechanic, and I see some tickets go up to $5,000+. It's disheartening seeing those tickets over and over and then seeing my check every two weeks.
Think it's about time to go back to IT. I was making six figures there. The flipside is that I enjoy being a mechanic more than an IT Security guy. Decisions, decisions man.
Let's give up and let clem say he fixed it. 😂
This has become hands-down the best hands-on channel for anyone to learn how to work on their equipment congratulations God bless
Agreed, the detail thought, not focused on him
I would only add that a clean working environment is very important, BEFORE opening any engine. Taking a few minutes to pressure wash and blow dry the engine bay so you are not introducing dirt into the engine, not only makes for a nice clean area to work on, it saves tool and garage cleanup later and allows you to see cracks and damage that can be hidden by grime.
I have pretty much the same machine, EFI version a few years newer. I use it around my small farm. Perfect machine for that, I use it even more than the tractor. Put a 2" ball into that receiver and you will find that you can just back it off the trailer and then move that 6x12 trailer to the back of the Teryx. It will tow that trailer like a dream, especially in low gear. Mine will pull the trailer with two 5foot round hay bales on it. Perfect setup, pull the Teryx to a work site on the trailer and then unload the trailer and tow the trailer with the Teryx. I usually have the chainsaw and gas in the dump bed and then fill the trailer with wood. Tailgate is also perfect height for working on the saw when you refill the fuel and sharpen the chain. Fill the dump bed with shovels, saws and drills, and then the trailer with fenceposts, and you have the perfect setup for fencing. It really is a great machine. Way more versatile than a regular 4-wheeler.
I believe you are the only youtuber that is buying a new project every single day. You sir are using that youtube revenue for a purpose. I have yet to be disappointed by your uploads and content because I enjoy watching you do what you love. The passion you have for the motorized toys is undeniable and I too share it with you. I love motors and wheels and when the 2 are combined, it makes for a way to have hella fun. I have a Honda 440 big bore I'm having trouble with and I'm hoping to get it running again in a couple weeks or so when the weather gets nicer. I don't have a place to work on it inside so I have to wait till the nicer weather gets here. I cant wait to ride it again and go full throttle through my neighborhood. You know the neighbors love it. :D Anyways, thanks for your content. I learn things every new video and I can also go back through your uploads and learn anything that has to do with these machines. Thanks.
How much revenue do you think he makes?
I like it because 1) average man projects (
@@greathornedowl3644agreed
You’re the real deal you’re very thorough when you’re checking machines out I work on Small engines and you do very good work
Looks like the dealership needs better mechanics. Great buy.
But dealer ships have a time limit on trouble shooting. There is a time limit on the books. Whether it is car or sport utility? Dealers want profit. I was usually sent to trouble shoot. And it was rare. Well, I always found the fault. Always. 18 years. Always found it. There were some days
I hated my job
But when it was fixed. I was happy. 18 years of that crap
@@wegmandan why ? they getting paid to fix , isn’t that their job. My mechanic wants $100 per hour dont I get some service
@@Innerlight320Service and repair are two very different things...better learn that.
You’re right about that . Told I needed new throttle body for car was faulting and going into limp mode .They couldn’t fix it so I took it off and cleaned it end of problem . And I’m no mechanic
@@wegmandan sounds like piss poor excuses to me. this just proves why i don't let others touch my stuff when at all possible. Mechanics today are not what they were years ago, especially when it comes to carbs. if i was the previous owner of this machine i would be livid and be down at the dealership showin them this vid and reamin someone sideways. simple jet cleanin got this machine back up to snuff.
Another fantastic job, Joe! Thanks for this video! Fun to watch you work and play. Like I'm right there with you.
It's surprising it had anything more than carb issues, these are typically pretty reliable, shame on the dealership I'm thinking they just wanted to sell a new one
For the newbies with chainsaws and cutting firewood,measure your fireplace to see what length wood fits it best,16,18,20,24" etc and get that length bar and chain for your saw,make sure you have the cc size appropriate,and when cutting your firewood simply measure your cuts using the bar making a nick and cut across the nick making the ideal length firewood for your application... also the heavier weight oil one uses in the chain oiler in warmer months means better lubrication for the bar and chain,winter time a lighter weight oil is mandatory the further north one is.. Glad ya got a good deal and price on this sxs and it should last you many many years of miles and smiles and decades if taken care of...
You can use any size bar on the chainsaw. Paint a stripe on the bar for the length firewood you want. I probably wouldn’t cut firewood with a saw smaller then an 18” bar.😊
use protective gear.
especially when you are out alone in the Woods.
a chainsaw makes a mess out of your legs in tenths of a second.
Canola oil is cheaper than bar oil and works better in warm or esp. Cold weather
Had one for many years. Best side by side ever made imo. Indestructible. The only thing you have to worry about replacing is the brakes.
Moment of silence for the dude who sold it 🤣🤣👌🏼
In case you didn't know but the compression tester will hold the built-up psi unless you have taken the Schrader valve out. Just notice that you said that means no bent valve. Great videos
I had the same thought ....but if a valve was bent and open compression would be zero.
Glad it's running, sounds good, but, I would recommend running some Chemtool or Seafoam through the top end down the carb throats, no joking it will run way smoother and have increased power. Usually do it on everything we fix her 4 stroke, it's really amazing the difference it makes. At MMI we would spray a fine mist of water through and clear carbon out, this is way healthier and better. Give er a shot... great Job.
that one is definitely a keeper!!! slap the plow on it and build an enclosure, rig up some heat and plow in comfort!!
Great work, Joe. Looks like a good machine for your land. Those mechanics sound incompetent. You did a simple fix and it runs like a top.
That is what I love, those in a decked out garage with $$$ diagnostic equipment, here a humble home mechanic took time
You're really good and a great mechanic. You know what you're doing
Nice find broski! 👌 You could start a business locating special or rare machines for people for a fee and repair if needed! Anyways glad you post often, I love these videos for some reason... maybe it's Vinny? Lol much love brotha.
Edit: I just saw it... CONGRATS ON 300K! 👏
I think Joe does pretty good .He fixes tons of bikes and sells tons of bikes for a profit, so I'd say he's making well over 100k a year
@@michaelmays9292pffft...
I had a Teryx about 8 years ago. They are tough machines. I beat the hell out of it and it kept going. Had to replace a wheel bearing or two and a few cv boots. Pulling multiple Rzr's out of the woods is hard work.
How pissed would you be if you were the previous owner watching this video & knowing the dealer made you think your ATV was shot so you dumped it! Also casually drives by the hover craft lol
Dealer probably suckered him into buying a new 1
Very pissed indeed.
that hovercraft has been there in so many videos. what a crap buy that was.
building hovercraft video hype, next video titled 'back from the dead'
Sounds like a lawsuit, if this video has factual information.
average retail is just $4455, no great deal.
It is pretty bad when dealership Mechanics give up on something it took you just a few hours to solve. Goes to show most are not mechanics anymore they are parts replacers. More referred to as plug and play people. Great job.
Can't even state what the issue is. 60 PSI is the spec. Guy says 60. Dealer says compression is bad. "Hey what's the torque specs?" I think it's 2 Uga-duggas. "Thanks".
That is the reason that I do all of my own oil changes and vehicle repairs. I was a heavy equipment mechanic for 45 years.
Rule number 1, when a vehicle comes with a manual, read manual before tinkering with said vehicle.
Joe you are absolutely the man I tell my wife all the time there is nothing you can't get running
Don't you think he should have his own shop or be teaching votech
New subscriber. Enjoy your finds your a smart young man. Thanks from. Sc
Nice Joe definitely done well on this one runs like a dream now & never took that much to get it going good definitely worth taking a risk from time to time especially when you have the knowledge to fix it & even if you don't you can learn along way have a marvellous weekend mate take care bro 👊 💨
Could have faulty decompression mechanism!
The plug for the winch is by winch. Should be by the bumper
On both of my Polaris quads, I put the remote plug-in at the top/rear of the left front fender. Well protected with easy access. I just did one for my 2022 570 Trail. I used an old 4-pin trailer light plug. It is all shiny crome, and has a nice spring-loaded cover to keep the crud out.
I can't believe a dealership couldn't clean some carb jets. That's literally all I know how to do.😂😂😂
I'm going to call you lucky Joe from now on lol. That was a huge score. Love the content in your videos. Keep them coming.
Finding TDC on an engine is not rocket science and you do not need special marks ect to find it . Sounds about as flat as a wet fart not to put too finer point on it
Once you put the tan work pants on you got down to business and figured it out. Lol. You might have to order a new pair just in case. Can't wait for the next video. Love it. Thanks for sharing.
You are so right.
So what was wrong with it What was the fix?
I could watch your videos all day long. The constant uploads are amazing.
I not sure but I think the compression release was stuck due to not changing oil
If you end up replacing internals, might want to consider the $1k 840 big bore kit, seems to be worth it, since so many have made videos, and forum threads about its performance.
Trying to make Chinese crap run again is futile. This machine might have a chance, especially when actual humans work to resolve. Thank you for being human.
Really love your content have been watching your channel for a week or two and am enjoying it. Keep up the good work.
Can’t wait for the goldwing and vw videos thanks Joe
I recently sold my 08 teryx same exact one and I always had an issue with it. When it ran there was nothing that could stop it,with that machine most people put an electric fuel pump and it will start a lot easier
Joe again great job. I would seriously encourage you to please put a fan in a window or open the overhead door before running a smoke machine without ventilation. My wife's ex-husband died from a very rare cancer caused by gas and oil in the auto mechanic field. I as well as I'm sure other fans don't want to see you get sick breathing that junk in.
Great comment. My brother died from accidental carbon monoxide poisoning. Not a fun time.
I just feel like you have entirely more adds per video then I ever seen but love ur videos
Really enjoying the content on this channel lots of different vehicles some of which I've never seen before and regular uploads. 👍👍
All dealerships don't want to fix anything just replace ....no real mechanics!
Congrats on 300,000!!! You deserve it!! You're the hardest working guy on youtube.
so you adjusted the valves, and put some iol down in to lube the cylinders, worked on both carbs, and changed the iol and it all works?
Bought one a couple months ago for 1500 with rod knock. Did a full top and bottom end rebuild for 1k and a couple odds and ins and I’m all in for 2800 for a fuel injected teryx, amazing
It’s kind of crazy, these things are 10 or $15,000. Now, you can put a whole new motor in it for a couple thousand and the rest of it looks to be in pretty decent shape.
Had one come in once with a small metal plug from carb that came out, looked like a small soldered plug, got stuck between intake valve and seat. Pulled it out, ran like a champ.
no one in the dealership knows what a carb does never mind fix them everything now is plug it into a computer it tells you what's wrong
Man oh man you are the hardest working youtuber ever! So many new videos
Atmospheric controlled air boxes, they have to be on to run.
Love the channel, great networking. Engine OUT? Could a mini-truck be in your future?
It amazes me that people start repairing the power train and DO NOT CLEAN it first! It is a lot easier to work on a clean engine/power train. Steam clean has been around for many years.
Real men don't worry about dirty fingers. Soap takes care of it for us.
Well known way to set the valves is to remove spark plug,insert a zip tie in hole and rotate engine until at top dead center after removing valve adjuster caps and look for cam lobes to be facing down away from rocker arms... adjust away,set valves to factory specs even with aftermarket cams unless you've swapped out to hardened aftermarket rockers and then adjust them to the cams and rockers specs and not the oem manufacturers specs...
Front leeft above the winch there is something, maybe that's where it goes....
ok, you found it just after I commented.
Nothing wrong with that engine! Great job getting it to run, Joe! Smoking good deal, you should be able to make some $$$ if you flip this.
Thanks man!
That's amazing
If the last owner is watching, he must be pretty happy with how things worked out.
The winch control has a plug on the winch itself
You are one heck of a mechanic!
Motor sounds good....good job buying a bargain and getting it running....
I feel bad for whoever owned this
That engine restore stuff at wallysworld. About 30 bucks. Says it re metals the engine. I put about 2 bottles and oil change. Old high miles. Nothing to lose, everything to gain. It worked wonders. Thats my ways of fixin. Dont recomend.
.
It's a Kawasaki, I'd start with valve clearances. Those are hell on the adjusters, done a few same way, set valves fired up. Start with intake valves.
A guard on top of the Wind wow looking over on top of the wind you'll see where the plug- go in at
Dealer: It's not worth fixing.
Also dealer: No worries! We have a lot full of new Kawasakis to sell you right here.
No way that kind of thing ever happens though.
sadly enough it goes a lot like that.. if they don't want to bother, they tell it can't be fixed. real mechanics are hard to find lately
When working on lawn mowers and someone brings in a mower with the issue beige it won’t start or they think it bent a lifter rod it seems that every time that it happens the oil is blacker then coal is and a lifter has stuck!!! I’ve ran across this issue probably a dozen different times and I’d say most or at least 9 to 10 are from the Kawasaki engines that most businesses like to run!!! But as long as the oil is changed in the correct hours of run time and a good oil ram each time I’ve never seen this issue!!! Also some come in with a new mower that they baught the year before and say it won’t start?? The first thing I ask is have you ever taken it back in after buying it to have the valves reset after running the mower for 8 to 10 hours?? Every time the answer is no they never said anything about having them checked!!! I’d go in reset the valves and it would start!!! I bet at least 99 out of a hundred people never have there valves reset after buying a new mower and end up with a no start or the mower having a hard to start issue!!!!
It’s another learning lesson but I’m sure you guys will have not having any trouble selling the car. Just ponder the education you have received in the last year plus having fun while doing it.
Colage kids that think they now everything and don't know anything
Hopefully Vinny will approve
Vinny says 🐕 that looks rough 😂
Vin is an ugly dog. He should not be picky.
you should buy carb dip and disassemble completely dip overnight spray out with chem tool and blow out with compressed air reassemble you should be good to go carb dip works the best never fails.
When i worked in a lawn mower shop, technicians became complacent and if the job was too hard they would make up crap to get the person to buy a newer unit. The shop would then buy the units "For Parts" at a very low price fix them and then sell them on marketplace under a fictitious name.
Wow that's horrible!
Wink wink 🤫
So instead of offering to help the man fix it you took advantage of him, shows a lot about your character bro
Keep ‘em coming! Love the content
Thank you so much i enjoyed that...and this for you is a great buy...
Great job bringing her back to life love you videos
Maby Vinny can fix this one
I still bet it will run even better if you change the fuel filter. And keep it from running lean qnd burning up.
300k Can't wait for a 500k special and then the 1million special. Love the channel. You're doing a great job.
Sounds like it just needed some seafoam
Get a hole saw and make a hole in the plastic above the radiator cap, works great for piece of mind. They handle larger tyres, suspension is built like a small car. Heavy duty plus. Tow hitch will haul the Polaris and others around the trails all day. They might not be fast but they are tough.
Black has nothing to do with being dirty only way to really tell is if its in chunks or you have a soap sample as we do on Air Craft and big Diesel. Oil reacts to the block and changes it color ie makes it darker.
When you mentioned dirt being sucked into the carb, I kind of thought it might need a good carb cleaning.
Good buy ! Should be an easy flip if you choose to do so.
But what about the loss of compression
Didn’t watch the whole vid sorry
@James Giresi after he put oil in and re checked both cylenders were back up to 50 so it's good as factory calls for 60
IMHO - I sensed rings, needing engine out rebuild,
I suspect old fuel is not helping
Nice well done sir, enjoy it I have a gator and love it, love the videos keep up the great work.
First thing first is pour oil down the cylinder because gas will wash the cylinder out giving you a low compression reading
Your compression gauge hold’s compression within itself to hold the reading, it has nothing to do with “valves holding”. Just FYI.
Also, if you put some motor oil down the spark plug hole and do another compression test and the compression goes up, that tells you it’s rings/cylinder blow-by causing your low compression.
I wouldn't pay more than 1K for that shit, its not hard to stick 4k into a utv to get it running and driving right, especially when talking a kawi Vtwin, they're stupid expensive to fix. all UTVS are trash
the compression gage holds pressure not the valves
Awesome! Even comes with its own duct tape seat covers!
You dont have to put the engine at tdc to check valves. Just spin the engine till intake and exhaust valves are closed and the engine is in its compression stroke.
You are so right. I adjusted the valves on a Cat 3412 with a remote starter button. I did it all the time with 3116, 3208, 3406, 3306, Polaris quads, virtually all engines. Never had an issue, and a lot faster than using a dial indicator or trying to find marks.
@@Rat-Builder yep, you can watch the camshaft spin by hand and see that 70% of it is a circle and the valve does not move at all. Not many people realize this haha
@@bradenwuesthoff5639 Yea, on the Cat engines there is a hole in the bell housing to insert a timing bolt, and then you have to manually turn the engine over slowly until the pin lines up with the corresponding hole in the flywheel. Sometimes these holes are almost impossible to get at, and then there is the turning the engine over by hand. To heck with that! My way is so much easier, not to mention faster. I wonder how many "mechanics" know the 4 strokes IN ORDER of an internal combustion 4 cycle engine?
Intake and exhaust valves do not close together at same time.
yes they do. Its called the compression stroke. Dont spread false information on the internet.@@waynewells359
not all mechanics got pure intentions.
once we had a 70k machine in that had blown the engine.
chief mechanic wanted to sell it on auction as broken and only get like 5-7k for it and then buy a new one where i said it would be smarter to just buy a new engine.
new engine would be 8 or 15k depending on the size and we would have the spareparts from the old one + a 3 year warranty on the engine.
im sure he ran a scam and had a friend buy the machines he sent to auction and then fixed them for profit.
in 2 weeks i got 6 machines with a death sentence running with a cost of a single dollar for a spring for one of them.
he then fired me for going over his head. only makes sense if he was scamming the company.
need to mention im not a mechanic. im just used to fix my kid brothers mopeds XD
Awesome buy joe runs great defo a cool machine and very handy to have I would think about keeping this one take care mate and all the best to you and the wife and your family 👍🔧🔧🔧👌❤️
Everything underneath looks super clean👎
These dealerships are a joke. Not worth fixing they say! 😂 I’m sure they just hire anyone with no experience.
It's all about paying out the least wages out there un the world
Man, check your timing ¡
Interesting that starving for oxygen had such a dramatic result
Good job nice fix again
It's your timing. Fuel is getting dumped into cylinders that aren't ready
"FEELS GOOD"...isn't proper valve clearance! ...thats why they make feeler guages!
Have you thought about a rumble channel?
Personally I do not like utube. Just a thought. Thanks for the great instructions
Hi You are my favorite you tuber . The reason is the way you run your channel content . Really appreciate the way you bring us with you . I hope you do very very well ty.
