I'm really happy that you're one of the UA-camrs that don't burden us with crappy montages full of terrible music in the interest of theatrics. You're more about the knowledge and I really appreciate that.
I will emphatically and whole heartedly agree! (Just what is it that makes some youtubers dub crappy music over everything? Do they think they're gonna get to direct the remake of 'Gone with the Wind' by using crap youtube music to blot out what little they had to say?) Can't count the number of channels I dropped solely for dubbed over music.
I have loved Wes’s “describing hands” (as I call them) since I first started following the channel. Of the many others things I love about Wes, is his excellent ability to describe function, flow, etc., of equipment, parts & pieces..., so that “even a caveman such as myself can understand it”... Had to “chuckle” when the phone went off, and Wes was frustrated... He has had many other situations relating to repairs that would have had me cussing like a sailor, and the phone call brings out his frustration... Great video, Thank you sir.
Not just a phone call, it was from a different country on the other side of the ocean. Something must be up (collecting/mapping/hacking phone numbers?) because I've got 3 similar calls in about 2 weeks. One of those was +33... code as this one here, not the same number though.
Being an electrician for the last 16 years, I've made plenty of electric tape band-aids and can attest to their effectiveness. Great vid again Wes, love the engineering on the valve mount!
Thanks for taking us along on this project. Quite a transition over the last year from barely running, only turned right, drawbar tractor to a fully functional little earth mover.
You must not work on much stuff. I've done that for years, but who has time to ask mommy for a band-aid?? Grab what-ever tape you have close at hand, and man-up!
At the end of the video you can bend that handle so it will not hit. You did a good job to fix that valve. We called that muffing it in. It not the right way but it works. After I saw oil filter cut open the only way I would use a Fram is for a short time use only.
That Frame filter probably doesn't have 10 hours of run time since I put it on. Prolly won't ever buy another one, except for the bypass filters on my old Allis tractors.
Fixed displacement pumps discharge a set amount per revolution, but not per RPM. The discharge amount varies with the speed of the rotations of the pump. That was one of the first things that I had to learn while studying hydraulics, over 50 years ago.
For somebody who doesn’t like hydraulics you sure seem to know a lot about them. Very good explanation of the function of that valve. Thanks for posting.🇬🇧
REVstoration had a similar issue on a Ford V8 blowing out filters. They changed the oil pump and it fixed it. The relief valve had stuck and causing over pressure.
The early Isuzu Troppers and Rodeos 4 cylinder gas engine had a problem whit the bypass valve getting stuck in the oil filter adaptor and blowing out the o-ring on the oil filter. Replacement of the oil filter adaptor solves the problem.
I was waiting to hear Mrs. Wes call out into the shop, "Hey Wes, have you seen my new nonstick brownie pan? I can't seem to find it". Thanks for explaining how the valves work. After using electrical tape on the band aid, I half expected to see duct tape on the welding glove to seal up that split seam.
When I retire soon I'm going to start restoring vintage/antique earth moving equipment and tractors. Something I always wanted to do but working to to pay the bills never gave me the time or energy. Videos like yours Wes are going to be a god send for me when it comes to fabricating and repaing them. Thanks so much for the videos!

I like the idea it's a stuck pressure relief valve. I've had success cleaning up old motors, gradually, using Rislone additive. And the Fram filter could be a contributing factor or all of it. In my opinion, they have the cheapest of the cheap construction.
Orange can frame is definitely junk especially the old ones, but modern fram gold and silver filters are actually quite good. Quite a bit of independent research out there on those teams and it all comes back pretty positive.
@Joby Fluorine they tend to have more pleats of filter material inside and to a finer micron rating. That is what the difference between wix and wix xp filters are at least. You can find this on the specs of the filter.
@Joby Fluorine I have to strongly disagree with you on this. There are a bunch of UA-cam videos where people tear down, measure, and inspect various filters and the difference in quality is plain to see. I don't know who makes the filters for WalMart, so I can't comment on that, but there is a huge difference between good quality and ElCheapo filers. I also make it a habit to ask professional engine builders about their opinion, they dont use WalMart or Fram orange death filters...
It was a stuck by-pass valve on the oil pump. It went over 200 PSI when it was cold. I put some Sea Foam in the oil and it has helped some, but still goes to 160 on a cold start, but drops back to 60PSI after a couple minutes of warming up. I may end up dropping the belly pan and oil pan to get that fixed. The by-pass oil is what lubes the timing gears.
When I was in fleet maintenance for one company we had a 544h loader blow out hydraulic filters, was the pressure relief valve. Now I am still in fleet maintenance just for my own fleet on the farm, was much nicer to be able to call for parts and not need to worry about the cost.....lol
Never use chanel lock pliers to tighten the filter. I rented a backhoe and the dope that changed the hydrolic fluid pinched the filter with pliers. The filter burst spraying fluid all over my legs.

Impressive the way that old machine starts so easily. It looks cold there, hope that your busted up thumb has stopped throbbing. That was a very clear and interesting explanation of the open and closed type systems.
It was WAY colder the end of this week. Overnight low ow 11*F the other night. This morning I picked Scoopy up from Wes. About the time to run him up on the trailer it was raining, and freezing to everything but black dirt. Several car accidents and they closed both bridges across the Mississippi for a time this morning, but we got the Oliver home and tucked in the shed.
Great job on replacing the two control valves. Explaining open center & closed center.👍 I quit using those two, three spool valves. One spool quits you need to replace whole thing. I use the individual banks now. I know that two spool valve will probably out last the machine because it not being used 20 hrs a day.

Despite your claim of disliking hydraulics, you have done a beautiful, tidy job on this Wes. I personally dislike BSP fittings and far prefer JIC, but sometimes it’s better to stick with what everything else is on the machine.
Terrific hydraulic explanation. Took me many many years to grasp the valve difference and operation because I never had anybody explain it do clearly and with no BS. uite the teacher!
Once again, a great project! I have two tractors with hydraulic loaders and had no idea how the valves actually worked until your explanation with in this video, so thank you!
One Of The Many Reasons I Enjoy Your Channel Is How You Take The Time To Explain Whatever it Is You Are Doing. Great Job Explaining The Hydraulics on That Rig. A Pleasure As Always Sir, Keep It Safe Out There & I’ll Catch You On The Next One
Great vid Wes. Love the education on valves, very useful information. On a side note, you might look at horse stall floor pads to prevent crawler type equipment to damage your floor. A local guy near me uses them and they work great at preventing damage to the cement floor. Thanks for sharing
As an Engineer, I am impressed with the design by the folks at Fram. Notice how you can't quite get the crack and the logo in the frame at the same time? Brilliant! They planned it that way.
Great fix to replace spool valves. I’m surprised at only $200 + cost for new valves. (($1000 real cost in labour} This OC46 is My all time favorite project. I want You to do a follow up show a year from now to see the machine in action. Thanks!
Maybe I'll invest in a decent vid camera, and do some clips of Scoopy working for my channel. Or Wes, can come over here and do a video when I get a little bit of practice. He's home here and tucked in the shed for now 😁 Canardly wait to push something over 👍
As someone who was familiar with hydraulic systems on a fundamental level, this was very informative! I know what the pump and swash plate do thanks to AvE so that was easy to follow.
Love it. I sent you that hoodie last year with a note that said green for Oliver, and ironically the first outing is on an Oliver. I know you probably didn't get the note from the shipper, but glad it worked out and you can put it to use. cheers.
About 1975, driving a Ford F350 with a 360 CI, first delivery of the day, head a bang sound, looked in side mirror to see what fell off the truck and see a Fram oil filter outside can rolling down the road. immediately turned the switch off. Truck blew the filter off the side of the engine leaving only the base still on the engine. Did not hurt it. Ford recommended straight 30 weight oil. I guess that is what saved it.
nice paint job. Leonardo de Krylon. i worked on unimate industrial hydraulic robots for years and learned more from you on hydraulic theory. great video
Great vid on Hydraulic valves. Hey that filter failed on the circumferential seam. In pressure vessel/tank design terminology, it's known as a "frangible" joint. That means it's designed to be a weak point so that if the pressure in the filter chamber gets high, the frangible joint yields before the sidewall ruptures on the long seam, or the bottom plate shears making it a 2 pound projectile. Probably made that way for economy + safety. The joint didn't appear to be deformed from a ding, so it probably was a high pressure failure caused by a high discharge pressure. That could be from filter clogging, low temp viscosity, frozen water plugging in the filter (or further downstream in the block). If the oil pump is a gear pump, the max discharge pressure will always rise to the backpressure of the system until limited by the motor torque, slip flow around the gears, and usually a ball check for pressure relief. Ball checks can easily get fouled. So if it happens again, maybe look for that.
Great video as always, Wes! To get those oil stains out of your hoodie, try some Fels Naptha. It comes in bar form, available anywhere fine laundry products are sold., like $1 a bar. Just wet the oily garment, and rub the bar into it. I use an old toothbrush on carpet and upholstery. That stuff has been around for over a century, and for anything greasy or oily on fabric, it works like magic. Some folks grind up the bars in a food processor and throw a scoop in the laundry. Happy Thanksgiving to you and the family!
.....and when the stash of band-aids in the house is just a little too far away, break out the Scotch Super 33+. I typically reach for the painters tape, myself since it unwraps easier, but electrical tape is more flexible for all day work. I love how you are just "one of us guys" Wes.
It's a Fram filter. I've seen them with split seams on many occasions. I would use old socks stuffed in a tomato can before I would use a Fram filter on anything. [Edit: Thanks a lot for the explanation on the different types of hydraulic systems - closed center and open center. ]
👍👌👏 Extremely well done again (video and work). I like this little crawler. As always: Thanks a lot for making teaching explaining recording editing uploading and sharing. Best regards luck and health to all of you.

Thank you for Explaining the Hydraulic system on Loader control valve. It reminds me of the ( Clay valve) we had on water line in Pump house. As the pump pushed the water up. The valve easy opened. Because of the water pressure against it from elevation of Tank Believe me the Telemetry called me meany times at 2 or 3 in morning because it's so sensitive. I did NOT know any of that stuff on the importance of the right valve to get for application. Thanks again. I Learn so much from you.

I didn't know I wanted to learn how different hydraulic systems work. But after your instructional video I now understand the basics. Helps with my never stop learning ethos. The only problem might be that I am coming of the age where my thirst for knowledge may be over powered by my ability to retain it. Now what was that video about.
That explanation about the hydraulics was worth viewing. I'm almost a complete novice, and with your help Wes I can understand well enough to fit an open centre system to my tractor now. The hardware is another matter, but we have the circuit nailed.
My oil truck shop garage has RailRoad Tracks in the floor. 34" wide, dozer, wide, and etc. The buried in cement iron is bonded and grounded by rebar to a stub where the welder can use that stub as a lea hookup for welding. The floors is level and functions like a Frame Machine to lay outs and straightening out bend iron. I can make a jug for any pull, cut a frame and strech out a truck frame, and etc. When done, a grinding wheel removes welded on jugs and restores my floor to normal. One stall has a front end pit that is home built. Learn that trick from North Dakota farmers who repair all their machines.
I love your channel. Great content. I watch and learn. Trying to get up the nerve to change PS pump on my 65 Tempest. Love your brutal honesty, your family values and your dog!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Great video as always Wes. I can only imagine what the cost to fix the old girl was between parts and labor 😳. Luckily someone wanted to save it and let you give it a new life. Thank you again
I work in the vacuum truck industry, building new equipment and deal with hydraulic systems every day. Its all fun and dandy when its dry , and your neatly routing hoses . But wait till you find out your brand new hyd pump, motor, or the worst a spool valve is defective or was incorrect/ non suffucient part loaded out in the bill of material by a wonderful engineer, and all the oil in the world spills out on you, your tools, and a nice new truck you just built 🤣😂. I really do love hydraulics though, making all my hoses run so nice and neat, and seeing a pile of parts do things is awesome
Great series on bringing the Oliver crawler back to life, I realize it was probably not cost effective, today's skidloaders would outwork the crawler, but it is what the customer wanted and he was willing to pay you to do the work. I have been working on and using Oliver tractors for 50 years, but never spent anytime working on crawlers. I think I will stick to tractors.
For the regulars found another channel that so far is pretty interesting. Marty T--Salvaging a Crashed Kubota Mini Tractor is what I just watched. Less tools and engineering principle discussion but still good stuff for those of us that like tearing things apart & putting them back together.

Terrific hydraulic explanation. Took me many many years to grasp the valve difference and operation because I never had anybody explain it do clearly and with no BS. uite the teacher!
Once again, a great project! I have two tractors with hydraulic loaders and had no idea how the valves actually worked until your explanation with in this video, so thank you!
One Of The Many Reasons I Enjoy Your Channel Is How You Take The Time To Explain Whatever it Is You Are Doing. Great Job Explaining The Hydraulics on That Rig. A Pleasure As Always Sir, Keep It Safe Out There & I’ll Catch You On The Next One
Great vid Wes. Love the education on valves, very useful information. On a side note, you might look at horse stall floor pads to prevent crawler type equipment to damage your floor. A local guy near me uses them and they work great at preventing damage to the cement floor. Thanks for sharing
Nice job on the Oliver. Thanks for describing the control valve configuration.
Great work Wes. You have an amazing amount of knowledge!
As an Engineer, I am impressed with the design by the folks at Fram. Notice how you can't quite get the crack and the logo in the frame at the same time? Brilliant! They planned it that way.
Great fix to replace spool valves. I’m surprised at only $200 + cost for new valves. (($1000 real cost in labour} This OC46 is My all time favorite project. I want You to do a follow up show a year from now to see the machine in action. Thanks!
Maybe I'll invest in a decent vid camera, and do some clips of Scoopy working for my channel. Or Wes, can come over here and do a video when I get a little bit of practice.
He's home here and tucked in the shed for now 😁 Canardly wait to push something over 👍
As someone who was familiar with hydraulic systems on a fundamental level, this was very informative! I know what the pump and swash plate do thanks to AvE so that was easy to follow.
Love it. I sent you that hoodie last year with a note that said green for Oliver, and ironically the first outing is on an Oliver. I know you probably didn't get the note from the shipper, but glad it worked out and you can put it to use. cheers.
Well thank you! There was a note but I guess I forgot about it.
Where can I get one of those? I heard they work great for mopping up oil spills! 🤣🤣
@@DarkFlamage Just filters the hydraulic sun-block before it self-applies to the wearer.
About 1975, driving a Ford F350 with a 360 CI, first delivery of the day, head a bang sound, looked in side mirror to see what fell off the truck and see a Fram oil filter outside can rolling down the road. immediately turned the switch off. Truck blew the filter off the side of the engine leaving only the base still on the engine. Did not hurt it. Ford recommended straight 30 weight oil. I guess that is what saved it.
I have found that an ultrasonic cleaner works great to clean up all the carbs on my small engines.
nice paint job. Leonardo de Krylon. i worked on unimate industrial hydraulic robots for years and learned more from you on hydraulic theory. great video
Maybe Bend the control levers a little to stop them interfering with the hose when in the float position? 🏴
Great vid on Hydraulic valves. Hey that filter failed on the circumferential seam. In pressure vessel/tank design terminology, it's known as a "frangible" joint. That means it's designed to be a weak point so that if the pressure in the filter chamber gets high, the frangible joint yields before the sidewall ruptures on the long seam, or the bottom plate shears making it a 2 pound projectile. Probably made that way for economy + safety. The joint didn't appear to be deformed from a ding, so it probably was a high pressure failure caused by a high discharge pressure. That could be from filter clogging, low temp viscosity, frozen water plugging in the filter (or further downstream in the block). If the oil pump is a gear pump, the max discharge pressure will always rise to the backpressure of the system until limited by the motor torque, slip flow around the gears, and usually a ball check for pressure relief. Ball checks can easily get fouled. So if it happens again, maybe look for that.
Great video as always, Wes! To get those oil stains out of your hoodie, try some Fels Naptha. It comes in bar form, available anywhere fine laundry products are sold., like $1 a bar. Just wet the oily garment, and rub the bar into it. I use an old toothbrush on carpet and upholstery. That stuff has been around for over a century, and for anything greasy or oily on fabric, it works like magic. Some folks grind up the bars in a food processor and throw a scoop in the laundry. Happy Thanksgiving to you and the family!
.....and when the stash of band-aids in the house is just a little too far away, break out the Scotch Super 33+. I typically reach for the painters tape, myself since it unwraps easier, but electrical tape is more flexible for all day work. I love how you are just "one of us guys" Wes.
It's a Fram filter. I've seen them with split seams on many occasions. I would use old socks stuffed in a tomato can before I would use a Fram filter on anything.
[Edit: Thanks a lot for the explanation on the different types of hydraulic systems - closed center and open center. ]
Thanks for the hydraulic valve lesson. I love the mounting design.
👍👌👏 Extremely well done again (video and work). I like this little crawler. As always: Thanks a lot for making teaching explaining recording editing uploading and sharing.
Best regards luck and health to all of you.
thanks for the great open center vs closed center explanation, and the power beyond. Finally understand what the farmer guys are talking about.
Nice tape job on the wound too!
The folks in France have been trying to get a hold of you because the warranty on your red pickup is going to expire and you will be responsible for all future repairs.
Hmm. That would be a bad deal. I'll call them back.
@@WatchWesWork
Not to worry. They will call again… & again… & again… etc.
@@daverunion2162 And send you spam mail to your house month after month after month.
@@JosephArata they called me for the billionth time last week. I played along and let the guy "verify" my truck so I made up a fairly new vehicle and they guy "approved" me then forwarded me to one of their "specialists". So I held on. This chick with an accent named Julie came on the line and tried to get me to buy the extended warranty and when she stopped talking and waited for me to reply I said "Julie, what are you wearing?" I thought it was funny. She hung up on me right away. I figure I can waste their time just like they waste mine. Hell, when my phone rings and its them my called ID say SPAM THREAT
I am surprised you have not been notified by several different people that your Norton antivirus subscription has been automatically renewed and your account will be debited.
End of an era! She's going home! Well done
Great job as always young man and thanks for explaining said valve operation.
Thank you for Explaining the Hydraulic system on Loader control valve. It reminds me of the
( Clay valve) we had on water line in Pump house. As the pump pushed the water up. The valve easy opened. Because of the water pressure against it from elevation of Tank
Believe me the Telemetry called me meany times at 2 or 3 in morning because it's so sensitive. I did NOT know any of that stuff on the importance of the right valve to get for application. Thanks again. I Learn so much from you.
I always put new clothes in the closet for 10 years, then I always have something new to wear if I die. In my 65 years experience, Monkey INC. parts hardly ever work as well as original, always worth the extra buck, you have to pay for the original engineering. Love that educational mechanic language. Cheers.
Love the fact that even though you were working inside, you capped the lines. I have a box of caplugs just for that purpose. Like the tape bandage too!
FRAM= "the orange can of death" in the oil filter world according to the "Bob is The Oil Guy" site...lol. Love the old Oliver crawlers!
I love this oliver project. Simply because it shows off your skills - it is not just about replacing parts with this and that....
I remember the days when Fram was good.
Thank you for explaining all different flavors of hydraulic valve controls
I think I have one of those projects in my horizon.
Good video thank you, I woke at 3 am could not sleep. I’m in New Zealand on my way to Antarctica again.
Wow. That's a hike!
@@WatchWesWork and a fair bit of swimming.
When getting a suspicious call slide up on your phone up and put it on airplane mode momentarily. This will show on the callers end as “call failed” instead of “call ended” some auto dialers see this as a dead line and after a few attempts they remove your number.
Great job! Just seems like the Oliver doesn’t want to leave your shop! It loves you!
I keep watching waiting for the day Wes really lowers himself to the level of the rest of us techs and uses full out cuss words when his project hurts him. I have created some of the best cuss words from working on projects that bite back.
I didn't know I wanted to learn how different hydraulic systems work. But after your instructional video I now understand the basics. Helps with my never stop learning ethos. The only problem might be that I am coming of the age where my thirst for knowledge may be over powered by my ability to retain it. Now what was that video about.
Great work. Is there a stuck relief on oil pulp maybe that was supposed to dump to pan or was filter defective?
I really like that little jig you made for the Hydraulic Valves !! 👍👍👍 I use to make contraptions like that for the Golf Course !!! ⛳
Yay first!
............well done, I'm so proud of you what a epic achievement!
@@marksbikeexports5123 it was hard. But worth it. Id like to thank the academy, youtube of course and the good people at apple that supplied my phone.
Your explanation of open and closed systems was very easy to follow. Nice to see that old machine more usable now with the new valves.
That explanation about the hydraulics was worth viewing. I'm almost a complete novice, and with your help Wes I can understand well enough to fit an open centre system to my tractor now. The hardware is another matter, but we have the circuit nailed.
My oil truck shop garage has RailRoad Tracks in the floor. 34" wide, dozer, wide, and etc. The buried in cement iron is bonded and grounded by rebar to a stub where the welder can use that stub as a lea hookup for welding. The floors is level and functions like a Frame Machine to lay outs and straightening out bend iron. I can make a jug for any pull, cut a frame and strech out a truck frame, and etc. When done, a grinding wheel removes welded on jugs and restores my floor to normal. One stall has a front end pit that is home built. Learn that trick from North Dakota farmers who repair all their machines.
I love your channel. Great content. I watch and learn. Trying to get up the nerve to change PS pump on my 65 Tempest. Love your brutal honesty, your family values and your dog!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Great video as always Wes. I can only imagine what the cost to fix the old girl was between parts and labor 😳. Luckily someone wanted to save it and let you give it a new life. Thank you again
I work in the vacuum truck industry, building new equipment and deal with hydraulic systems every day. Its all fun and dandy when its dry , and your neatly routing hoses . But wait till you find out your brand new hyd pump, motor, or the worst a spool valve is defective or was incorrect/ non suffucient part loaded out in the bill of material by a wonderful engineer, and all the oil in the world spills out on you, your tools, and a nice new truck you just built 🤣😂. I really do love hydraulics though, making all my hoses run so nice and neat, and seeing a pile of parts do things is awesome
Best bandage in the world , electrical tap! Works wonders . Keep up the good work .
No Job is complete until the proper amount or blood has been let. Great Job as usual!!
Great series on bringing the Oliver crawler back to life, I realize it was probably not cost effective, today's skidloaders would outwork the crawler, but it is what the customer wanted and he was willing to pay you to do the work. I have been working on and using Oliver tractors for 50 years, but never spent anytime working on crawlers. I think I will stick to tractors.
For the regulars found another channel that so far is pretty interesting. Marty T--Salvaging a Crashed Kubota Mini Tractor is what I just watched. Less tools and engineering principle discussion but still good stuff for those of us that like tearing things apart & putting them back together.
I love the silver duct tape on the hose for the carburetor.
Great video,
Ripped thumb, scam calls, holes not lining up.... the fact that it's Friday keeps me going.
Good little video to watch and eat supper too. Thanks Wes, Have a great weekend 👋
At the end when you were moving around dirt I had memories of playing with Tonka trucks in the sandbox as a kid.
The little caterpillar is now really fun. This is good for small projects or where the big ones don't fit.
