At 75+ my days of working on that stuff are long over. The little work that I do for neighbors, children and grandchildren turns very frustrating working on this new stuff. Yes, I agree, the older is much easier. The older stuff was made to repair and rebuild. All this new stuff is much more cheap throw away. Glad to be out of it. I do really enjoy watching you work, especially concerning the fact that much of my early time was working in the areas where you are. You are very experienced and talented.
What company trains the next generation mechanic? My father was a deere mechanic back in the 60s early 70s and deere had a refreshing school every year for dealers to send their top mechanics too. I remember my father going to Portland, Ore; for the school on the new 30 series tractor. Like Wes here, he thought of his farmers (customers) first. Yes my father worked for a dealer, but he knew who really paid his wages. If the farmer can't afford your wages, how do you plan to eat? Three things you have to have to live: 1, water and food; 2, shelter and 3, clothing. What in life do you do to provide these three?
Same here TheBayoutransplant! I am 81 and have repaired cars and light trucks all of my adult life, and now restrict my work to friends, family and neighbors, which I no longer charge for. I, like you, have a vast fund of knowledge about mechanics. (That inventory would make great conversation. All of that knowledge, that is wasted, outmoded,etc. Like when was the last time any of us saw a new car that was carbureted?) All of which I will carry to my grave. Such is life I guess. I have always loved mechanics and have very few regrets.
@@angrybill I am doing my best to pass on as much as possible to my grandson. He is very interested and is amazed at the tricks and such that I have developed over these years. I really enjoy working on stuff still but this new technology has turned into computers doing the trouble shooting and very specialized equipment to do what little repair that can be done. My 2003 f250 7.3 has more computer stuff than I would like. Like you, I will continue to turn wrenches for as long as possible.
Started out with a video from JC smith projects,,,,Then went to coldwarmotors,,,Now a video from the hardest working hands down best mechanic on YT western truck n tractor,,,life's good..
Enjoy CWM as well, Half Ass customs in Manitoba is worth watching. Warren is definitely my favorite. Straight up guy, never any bull shit, no silly intro. Just Warren doing what he does best.
You are an amazing technician. You work your butt off , and you find time to do videos. My hat is off to you I have the greatest respect in the world for you!!!!
He reminds me of the mechanic I worked for in high school. He was amazing, I remember a guy brought in a 32 Mercury that he had rebuilt. After putting it back together, he messed up the firing order. There were no imprints on the intake showing the firing order either. The mechanic I worked for systematically started unplugging plug wires with his insulated pliers and holding them to various spark plugs. After about 15 minutes of him listening to the motor and rearranging plug wires, he declared it finished. The customer took his car for a ride around the block, he came back beaming. I don't know what the probability of doing that is, I assume it 2^6/8 power, I was simply amazed that he was able to do that. I wish this generation respected blue collar workers more. Everybody seems to think these guys are morons when in reality, it's far from the case.
GODS BLESSING TO YOU WARREN AND YOUR FAMILY! MAY HE BLESS YOU WITH HEALTH AND STRENGTH TO ACCOMPLISH YOUR LIFES WORK HELPING PEOPLE WHO NEED AND TRUST IN YOUR KNOWLEDGE! AMEN!
It's sad when someone steals a good and useful tool, even if you have made it yourself. But unfortunately that's the word we live in. I enjoy watching you work on the older stuff, the stress level is no where near of what it is when you're working on something newer. Stay safe! And have a blessed week!
You probably think of this often. But just imagine the people that own those tractors and seeing the kind of stuff that's going on and how bad it really is sure makes it easier for them to accept you doing the work!! Doing a super great job Warren!! Still glad to see you working inside instead of out in that weather!!
Thank you, Warren. I am really enjoying not just the mechanics side of your videos, but your commentary on the state of the Union. Spot on! Time to buy some Trump sneakers.
Hey Warren, nice Saturday video. That engine will be a breeze for you to work on. Good thing they got it to you when they did, otherwise they probably would be buying a new block. Thanks much, stay safe.
Funny how a pint of water can wet the entire shop floor and always where one has to lay. Pulling thing's apart followed by a gurgling sound inevitably produces some cuss word's which vary in severity depending on the situation and probably where one is in the world. Here in merry old England I have acquired word's not taught to me in school which have come in handy for such occasions. Staying dry and warm as one get's older is an important part of life, least it is in mine. I see the glitter in the oil before you mentioned it, do I get a medal. Thank you for the post
An old timer introduced me to copper by PERMATEX long ago did this when i rebuilt my head sprayed the liner and let dry been using it ever since. I have learned a lot from your channel over the years.
Nice fab job on the liner puller, you can’t beat it when it works. A lot of little details to take care of when dealing with rebuilds. Thanks for the update and I appreciate your taking the time to record and post the videos.
For future use I would bevel the upper edge of that extraction foot such that if there is a minor misalignment the bevel will let the foot adjust to any overlap without damage to the cylinder block. Great video. Thank you for your hard work taking and editing all of those miles of videos! Regards, Bill
dude i love seeing you work on old-school cats to me there's nothing cooler other than cutting trees lol. but keep it coming man im loving the videos and progress and final results etc.
Great video Warren really enjoy watching you work on this dozer engine. Nice to see the bottom end is in good shape bearings at the crank journals. Looking forward to your next video stay safe Warren.
Great video, makes me remember well what its like to work on decent equipment. All those old CATs are great in my opinion. Hope your foot is healing well. Have a great week ahead and thank you for sharing your wisdom and great work ethic.
Great videos, better than most of the stuff on tv. My Case 580C needs its diesel injection pump rebuilt, come do it, I’m right down the road from you in New Jersey.
Pretty nice puller. Another Great Video, Warren. It definitely wouldn’t have run long if you just threw a head gasket on it and sent it back. I figured out long ago that I can’t take any shortcuts, because it always bites me in the hind end and I have to do it over again. I appreciate you taking the time to video your jobs and pass on your knowledge and experience.
Warren is that busy that he gets up an hour before he goes to bed. He works 25 hours a day (works 24 hours then has an hour for lunch). It is during this lunch break that he edits his videos. This is why he is the hardest working person on UA-cam.
Whenever I am using printed books I throw them in my copy machine and make copies of all the relevant pages I need and when I am done I throw them away. When it comes to tools having a lathe makes all the difference because it's so easy to make specialized tooling for jobs and it's much cheaper than buying the tools. I make a lot of seal installers and bearing installers and tapered ring compressors. I get as much scrap metal as possible so I don't have to buy expensive material. When I make liner pullers I usually take my plasma cutter with circle cutter and cut out a circle close to size out of scrap 1" steel plate and finish it in the lathe.
Just finished a D4d engine rebuild. Original plan was do to it how you are but the crank ended up being bad so I had to jack the front of the machine up another 6 inches to clear the hard bar. Good little engines and aftermarket parts are pretty accessible.
"Torque angles", make no sense at all to me either. There was nothing wrong at all with torque settings in Nm or lb.ft. In fact, I would argue the old way is far more precise and accurate provided the torque wrench was calibrated. Torqe angles, don't have a click stop or confirmed stop, unless the gauges have improved since I last worked on one those type engines twenty years ago.I just won't touch one now. Anyway, always good see you plotting a win on stubborn stuff young man!
At 75+ if you knowingly lay on your back under a piece of any equipment, you should have already planned on how you are getting back to your feet. Nice videos.
Cheers for the video Warren,I wonder because you are replacing the pistons could you use that as the cantering cone by drilling down the centre?just a thought.
Can you use a cone like the type you spin onto a old tire balancer or brake lathe to hold the wheel or roter as you turn it as the bottom of your liner puller ?

I find it amazing how long you been on UA-cam Warren your education is just top notch
What a pleasure working on this instead of a POS Pacar! You have earned it. Thanks Warren!

The old engines are so much simpler to work on
Only wire I unhooked were the glow plugs.

Your capacity for hard work is an inspiration Warren - so when I start feeling like slacking off I just say "What would Warren do?" and carry on.👍
It's sad when someone steals a good and useful tool, even if you have made it yourself. But unfortunately that's the word we live in. I enjoy watching you work on the older stuff, the stress level is no where near of what it is when you're working on something newer. Stay safe! And have a blessed week!
Thanks for sharing Warren. It's a darn shame when a man's tools grow legs.
Best Wishes to You and Your Family.
Use to use old liners to make my own ring compressor tool! Split it, cut it down, weld on a hinge and handle 😉
Hard bars? I’ve not seen that before. Looks like they must be stiffeners? Enjoying the show Warren.
You probably think of this often. But just imagine the people that own those tractors and seeing the kind of stuff that's going on and how bad it really is sure makes it easier for them to accept you doing the work!!
Doing a super great job Warren!! Still glad to see you working inside instead of out in that weather!!

Time to buy some Trump sneakers.
I don't think he's a trump fan lol.
@@g-man7938 He has a Trump coffee container.
Warren, check of a job. Looking forward to PT 2
Parts aren't supposed to be in till the 23rd, so it'll be awhile.
Hey Warren, nice Saturday video. That engine will be a breeze for you to work on. Good thing they got it to you when they did, otherwise they probably would be buying a new block. Thanks much, stay safe.
Early morning here in the UK but still watching this awesome man
@@grahammoore6386
I'm also in the UK Warren is a brilliant mechanic.
I agree, trash the torque angle mess and give us a foot pound amount to torque to and call it done.
Thank you for showing us how an overhaul is done . your great mechanic .
Wow 118K subscribers. You're gaining traction !!!
Slowly
He's had that for 3 months! Commies don't like a real American man!
Best on UA-cam
Thanks for bringing us along
Too bad you can’t find someone to help you and save you from getting up and down a thousand times. Good job Warren.
WARREN, you got to get yourself one of those HEATED power washers. Good video. Thanks
Hardest working man Ive ever come across.
Thats right 👍🔧🍀

👌 thanks for sharing another great episode Warren.
Good to see what you do best, working hard. Thanks for the video
Hope you put aside some time to rest this weekend, you are one hard working man. Much respect for you and what you do.👍

This is the earliest I’ve seen a new video of yours 👍👍
It will be nice hearing the old Cat purring like a kitten again, great job Warren.

Necessity is the mother of invention that sure is one heck of a home made liner puller Warren
Thanks you for the memories of the watching my uncle
Thanks these are great lots of memories
Great video. They made machines to last back then.
Really good solution to those sticky liners. 😊
Welcome back, welcome back
Hi mate love watching your videos especially when you’re working on cats
Great videos, better than most of the stuff on tv. My Case 580C needs its diesel injection pump rebuilt, come do it, I’m right down the road from you in New Jersey.
I'll be waiting for you Warren. I'm a city boy construction laborer and I get to pretend I'm a mechanic here.
Warren thanks for the content, hope your foot is healing well.
You always sound very happy when your working on real good old fashioned engineering, I enjoy as well
Man if you don't have a tool you make it, great that you show us your thought process.
Nice show Warren 😊
Interesting job your on.
Thanks

Thanks for making the video! I appreciate you taking the time to make it! You're the man!
Id like to know what a typical day looks like for Warren. What time he goes to sleep, gets up, works, edits and posts videos.
Warren is that busy that he gets up an hour before he goes to bed. He works 25 hours a day (works 24 hours then has an hour for lunch). It is during this lunch break that he edits his videos. This is why he is the hardest working person on UA-cam.
Thanks for the Video.
Great video Warren
Thx for sharing
Safe travels
good vid warren
Pretty cool pullers setup 👍👍

You get a good view of the balance shaft flats Warren was talking about at 10:40
Nice . Love these videos.
Very informative, thank you
Awesome 😎
Nice puller you’ve constructed there.👍
Can’t beat the old yellow iron
Let's all say a prayer for warren having to deal with this madness. Amazing 😮
Need a work pit ??
Great job Warren your always thinking out of the square very clever man 🦘
Nice work Warren
I love the videos! 🎉🎉🎉
I'm sure someone said oh it's just going to be a head gasket job that would be quick! But we can't always be right.👍👍
Nice work man 👍🏻
Its turning out to be a lot more work for you now warren .
Thats a great liner puller you have made there 👍👍👍👍
Thanks Warren for the video upload.
Love it 👍🏻
Great video thanks for sharing
Heck yea!
evening , and thank you for video.
👍👍like that puller.. thanks for all your time and efforts 👍👊
You bet
Thanks Warren
Warren,you’re welcome,lookin for your one,see ya then.
Another great video. Thanks, Warren, you are an inspiration for us old couch-locked bastards. lol
Just finished a D4d engine rebuild. Original plan was do to it how you are but the crank ended up being bad so I had to jack the front of the machine up another 6 inches to clear the hard bar. Good little engines and aftermarket parts are pretty accessible.
Made a sleeve puller similar to that to pull sleeves in an old Continental in a Massey.
I want to see a service truck tour Warren
We build a plate for Perkins dry liner to get them out
New to your videos, I subscribed you got some awesome content, I'd love to see a truck tour / tool tour thanks!

Thank you.
At 75+ if you knowingly lay on your back under a piece of any equipment, you should have already planned on how you are getting back to your feet. Nice videos.
they built stuff rite back in the 60s and 70s then it turned to crap
The struggle is real.
Very cool liner pulling tool you made.nedds a tiny bit of refining to be perfect.did the owner say to do all four cats or just the one?
Cheers for the video Warren,I wonder because you are replacing the pistons could you use that as the cantering cone by drilling down the centre?just a thought.
Great stuff what makes our country go
👍
Ive got the same kinda rig you have for pulling liners Warren the puller plates i hade made were they have the middle higher for centering
Cool
Theres a simple way to end those nuisance calls, ask for thier card number and explain your rates!😮
A lot of work to get them out Warren, and you have all three engines to do ?
Can you use a cone like the type you spin onto a old tire balancer or brake lathe to hold the wheel or roter as you turn it as the bottom of your liner puller ?
❤❤❤😊
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
