      I guess you never lived in country side, you never know what you going to do next day, its all running and fixing and doing daily chores and routines, otherwise issues with gold and food, you have to move all the time and planning is very subjective and on basic level you simply have no time for that.

    Being daring enough to buy a dozer with a stuck engine, because *you trust yourself to be able to get it running again - on some lonely spot in nowhere and with just portable gear -* is just amazing! Keep up the great work!

    Hi Cody,
    I have repaired many engines during my lifetime, but I don't think I would like to attempt anything of that size. You both must have felt a huge sense of exhilaration when you got it to fire up successfully. It's also great to see a father /son team work so well together. I just wish I could work with my father again but he's been gone these 38 years now, and believe it or not I still miss him.
    Job well done Cody.
    Best Regards to you both.

    • @jasonpatterson8091
      @jasonpatterson8091 8 років тому +24

      I imagine it's all about what you do on a daily basis. If you're a rancher then you're going to work with heavy machinery and construction and such. If you're not working with that equipment, then you're probably not going to know that stuff. I imagine you know things he doesn't for the exact same reason. His set of knowledge happens to be the more charismatic and traditionally Dad-ish (and trust me, I'm quite jealous as well.) In any case, I'm sure all three of us (you, Cody's dad, and I) would agree that how to be a dad has more to do with how you behave than what you know. :-) Happy Father's Day, by the way.

    I have a lot of respect for your ingenuity on the piston rings. As I mentioned in another comment on a later video, wax is your best friend for the treads. Really hard wax doesn't break down like oil or grease. It will hold at higher temperatures and doesn't attract much dust. You can add graphite or teflon to aid the lubrication. It works really well and lasts a long time.

  • @electronicsNmore
    @electronicsNmore 8 років тому +7

    A lot of work! Sounds pretty good running. That diesel has some huge pistons. You may have been able to pour some oil into each cylinder and allow it to sit a few days then try rotating the crankshaft by hand with a long pipe. I had this problem before on a jet ski engine.

    Beautiful machine. My grandpa had a '55 Cat D2 with the pony motor and hand clutches. Always kept in in perfect working order, and it served him well until he died. He used it to fight forest fires, keep roads open through blizzards, and build 3 different homesteads. It's still in the family, and still being used weekly at least.

Thanks again there fella ! !

    I grew up in a family that owned an excavating company, I remember riding a dozer with my grandfather building two 10-12 acre ponds on our farm. It's been a long time but I still think I could drive one of the old ones if I had to. Anxious to see more videos of the dozer.

  • @MinecraftSurge
    @MinecraftSurge 8 років тому +93

    ey cody, never stop uploading, even if you get rich and want to retire.
    UA-cam has so much trash and junk and people uploading the same stupid stuff.
    Not only is this channel a breath of fresh air, but I think it will inspire people to pursue science in general.
    You see, people are just shells, they become the result of what they do. If people go to school and play video games for a decade, they don't know anything, and they don't even have the opportunity to be exposed to interesting things. If you become really popular you might actually have an effect on the human race as a whole. There are other science channels but they are shitty and boring, consisting of mostly regurgitating the same stuff. Plus they don't do any hands on stuff.
    I strongly believe that the worlds problems are a result of stupidly. If everyone was equally intelligent and understanding, there would be no conflict. No greed, no hate.
    If people live shitty live styles and never gain an interest in science and they just go by their day to day life with no wonder or understanding, they slowly become duller until they can no longer solve their own problems. I think your channel inspires interest in normal people that otherwise would not have been interested in science. I think you are changing the world for the better. Maybe 1/1,000,000,000 effect or maybe 1/100,000 but every bit still matters.

      The Punisher: Three: in certain extreme situations, the law is
      inadequate. In order to shame its inadequacy, it is necessary to act
      outside the law. To pursue... natural justice. This is not vengeance.
      Revenge is not a valid motive, it's an emotional response. No, not
      vengeance. Punishment.

    @edwardcarberry1095 8 років тому

    It is good to see father/son working together, you will appreciate it later in life. I thought it sounded good, we used to put lots of oil on the piston/ rings when installing them. (Dry Starting is hard on them) The 25 is a nice sized bigger machine then the 14/gas/diesel which I ran for awhile years ago. I still like the sound of the 8K.

  • @davecook9254
    @davecook9254 8 років тому

    Cody,
    Don’t know how I happened to view your Fixing Dozer. Enjoyed it especially when it fired up, I know and love that sound. Operated a 25A a couple years in northern MN. Doing pine tree plantation preparation near the Canadian border back in the late seventies. It was a blast I lived in the bed of my pickup on the jobsite it had a insulated toper on it. Cooked lunch on the exhaust manifold had a good supper in Tofte at night. Most weeks I had 40 hours in on Wednesday. Generally snowed out about Thanksgiving.
    Even though it isn’t sparkling new I’m sure it will rework your driveway and best of all no payments. Enjoy your toy.

  • @JacobEllinger
    @JacobEllinger 8 років тому

    bit of a story for ya. So I was working out in Arkansas and there was a property out there that had all these old cars and we where hired to remove them and we would get to keep all the scrap. Well anyways the owner was not aware that the property had a old bulldozer from the 50's out there and he said we could take that too.
    Well anyways the backhoe we had could lift and crush entire cars like nothing but we could barely even budge the bulldozer.
    So we got out a acetylene torch and cut the thing in two, and it still could not lift it; stalled the backhoe right out so what we did was dug a hole in the ground and backed the flatbed into the hole and pulled the two pieces onto it. nearly started a forest fire several times in the cutting process but it was a lot of fun.
    great video keep being awesome. ~Jake
