Matt: "I'm not a mechanic..." Proceeds to to tear into the engine like he's done it for 50 years... Keep up the great work! It's always a pleasant surprise when one of your videos pops up in my feed...
Matt, to be perfectly honest, once I saw the compression issue and saw the ring ridge in the bores, I would have gotten my money back. At least you documented everything you found. Thankfully the engine shop will make good on it. I'm looking forward to seeing how this project turns out.
I would say that engine has done more than a thousand hours or very little to no maintenance, the good thing is we get another great video to watch. Matt wishing you and yours and Charlie a very happy Christmas from the UK
It's in case they screw up as so many commenters are so quick to jump on people's arses the second they do something they deem as in correct followed by "" Call yourself a Mechanic "" followed by their insults. It's a good way to cover their backsides. .
How in the hell does a reputable shop mail this out? I can see a layman pulling an engine and selling it without checking it over or even testing it but this is just unforgivable.
Matt we both live in the same Metro area. We have very few Automotive Machine Shops left in the area and the ones left are aging out. Skills are being lost forever. It is part of the disposable society we now live in. Keep up the good work enjoy the videos.
I would have sent the engine back. I did enjoy the tear down though. Looking forward to next video. Thank you for taking the time to film this for us 👏🤞👍🙏
You are a great mechanic. Love your videos. You are my favorite fixing everything you have. Bulldozer then elevator. Now a skid steer. Just wow. Good man and great mechanic
You have such a great outlook and I am glad that you are getting reimbursed! I would say you qualify as a mechanic and probably better than most who do it for a living. I am looking forward to following the project.
If it’s from the southeast, we have hard water: the white chalky stuff could be calcium/lime where the service person used tap water for coolant (particularly where a coolant leak was persisting, using hard water can exacerbate the problem)
thanks Matt, after the used engine disappointment, your tenacity and determination will get you the end result you want I'm sure..... hope you and your family have a great Christmas.
What a disappointment. I worked in a wreckers for years. All our second hand engines were hot run and comp tested before we sold them. If the comp was low we rebuilt or scrapped.. still it’ll make for some interesting videos! Merry Xmas! 🇦🇺🍺🍺
I strongly disagree with one of your assessments: "I am not a mechanic" You might not do this for a living, but you are a very skilled machine technician/mechanic.
Great video, cool you took the time to diagnose it fully. As an aside, in your final "scene" I noticed the beams in your shop are monstrously large. Have you considered making a Unistrut trolley bridge crane between them? 600lbs capacity should be easy and 1200 not too hard. Over head lifts just seem so useful, especially as you get older.
Matt, Mud Daubers plug every 1/4" hole on the East Coast in everything possible. I live in PA, and every hole in my Dewalt blower, the cooking Grill, and the ground holes in outside receptacles are plugged.
What a bummer. At least we all are now more knowledgeable in what happens when you let a diesel engine run without a air cleaner for a long time. Honestly I was expecting lot of shrapnel in the oil pan but only metal paste came out. Yanmar diesel parts should be plenty available. Any line boring job will be just a huge expense unless its one of a kind engine that has no analogs. Probably the Yanmar had the factory silicone that is very strong unlike the one they sell in the stores. In terms of entertainment and teaching 10/10 for the video
Very Interesting! Usually you see some oil starvation issues with totally grenaded internals on yt, very interesting to see what a bunch of dirt does. When I saw that piston wiggling around, my first though was - that thing ran??? Guess I never saw a video of a dirt-filled engine :) I totally understand you wanting to take it apart, even though its clearly dead. I would have done the same on a free, dead engine.
Hey Matt, sorry to see that you got a bum [skid] "steer" engine. No pun intended. What a lousy Christmas present that turned out to be. I admire your tenacity and calm headedness in handling these obstacles. As for the dirt in the holes, we have mud wasps on the east coast. Commonly call dirt daubers, they lay their eggs in any kind of hole that they can plug with mud and saliva to protect the eggs until they hatch. Anyway, I hope the place that sold the engine will follow through and make good on the cost to rebuild the engine. Have a great Christmas and a Happy New Year!!!
"I guess we are looking at a full rebuild" - this seems to be the way all your purchases are going. We all love your meticulousness and attention to detail so notentirely surprising for the viewers ;-) Maybe you should consider buying that crankshaft grinding tool that the shop had no-one to operate, this might not be the last engine you see that needs work. Also then you can add "I'm not a machinist" to your "I'm not a mechanic" tag-line
Superb tear-down and analysis. Running without an air filter and not changing oil at specified intervals is destructive. I hope you get reimbursed for your work. Cheers! Will be looking for more of your videos.
Sorry you didn’t get what you paid for. Good that the seller is doing right by you. Great that you are going to make more videos! May be good thing with winter coming on, although still pretty stoked about the excavator going back together. Love you videos regardless of what you happen to be working on!
The white / tan dust you were digging out of the round holes are Mud Dauber Wasp Nests there is a larva in each hole. Sorry, this happened to you, but you will make the engine better than new. JeffinMaine
Except if this engine was bought from a reputable shop they are fucking their own reputation over badly.

YES FOR SURE...GOOD RUNNING. ENGINE MY BUTT....WHAT A BIG DISAPPOINTMENT. IT IS GOING TO TAKE A FULL REBUILD. I THINK I WOULD HAVE SENT IT BACK AND LOOKED FOR A BETTER ENGINE. THAT ONE WAS HEAVILY USED AND COMPLETELY NEGLECTED.
Bummer for sure - I think with equipment like this the air cleaner came apart, and the thing was just run, and run, making "pay-dirt" until it wouldn't start. Great diagnosis, and very true about machining and master machinists getting harder and harder to come by. Great video editing to! Thank you for sharing ...
For a person that claims to, "Not be a mechanic"! You have figured out quite a bit of obscure information about these engines! Besides anyone that can disassemble and reassemble an old 50s caterpillar dozer. And make look as good and run as good as you did! You're at least an honorary mechanic!
2 години тому+1
Matt, sorry you got a dead engine...shame on the seller. All your subs are anxious to see you work in the excavator. With the great job you are doing on it so far, it will be better than new when you are done. Love your channel and great videos. Looking forward to see that lousy engine get rebuilt and installed in your skid steer. BTW you are a great mechanic. Few mechanics would take the time and be so meticulous as you.
Your forensic analysis and conclusions are pretty good. I agree with your assessment in part. I also think that the engine was run many hours without an oil change. Then the lower bearings were all replaced and run for a very short while until it was removed and sold to the shop you purchased it from. Just my swag...
Well at least it made a great video. Congratulations on your 100K subscribers. Merry Christmas to you, your family, friends and viewers. P.S. Thank you for our present a year of great watch, cheers my friend.
Appreciate your time and effort making these podcasts, you make a great job of expalining your methodology and reasoning, I’m currently working on a similar project, Mitsubishi s4s, I’ll be watching with a keen interest if you decide to analyse this particular engine. I rate them as a reliable engine and are similar to what you’re looking at now, thanks again for all your hard work and efforts in sharing your experience. 👍
Brother bathe and blow that block well before assembly, be sure to buy a new oil pump and o-rings around it and take it easy wrenching around aluminium...love your content...
I've seen you work so this should be an easy one for you ! However I think the shop you purchased it from should get the entire bill for the rebuild. You may not have experience on this particular equipment but your ability always serves you well and brings you success !
I have the same engine in a Takeuchi TL130 skid steer. It has an oil pan drain plug on the side. The manual shows different configurations for the oil pan. You should be able to find one. My TL130 was an auction buy (non runner). It turned out to have a spun rod bearing. A lot of metal in the engine. Replaced the crankshaft with a Chinese replacement. They are all made in China anyway. It looked like someone stripped the threads on the oil pan plug and it leaked and eventually was run without oil. It belonged to a bricklaying contractor so was used by different crews and no one took care of it. I just replaced the crankshaft and bad rod and cleaned it all out. It runs fine now except it blows white smoke sometimes. Seems to be mostly after sitting unused for a while. I should have rebuilt the head and replaced the valve guides. That engine is easy to work on. I had to put it together twice, the second time to replace the push rod that I bent putting the head back on and to replace the rear seal that I screwed up installing it. If I remember right, a piece of 3" PVC pipe works as a good tool to install the rear seal. I didn't discover that the first time around. Skid steers are a pain to work on because everything is packed into such a tight space.
To me that engine has had an oil pump failure, and someone had put a set of big end bearings in it and sold it. That greyish silver goop is metal in the oil. There should have been oil pumping out of the oil filter housing when you were turning it over with the starter. As soon as you turned it over by hand, I knew it was toast, with little to no compression. Everything should have a Yanmar logo on it, if it’s a low hour machine, and the fact the bearings have no Yanmar marking is another warning sign. I would have shipped it straight back for a full refund. I did enjoy the tear down though. 👍🏻
Matt , If your going to install that motor into your skid steer , while you have the empty Core , use it to fab your engine mounts, less weight to sling around ... Might have to re-install front cover for width of front mounts ..
Yanmar is a great engine had one in a older tractor, it was beat up by it previously older I did minor work to it and it ran great till the day I sold it. Your going to love it once it’s fixed
Matt, it looks like there were two issues that contributed to the demise of the engine poor air filtering and no oil changes. A friend bought a Kubota tractor that had a similar issue with really thick oil. Luckily he went to change the oil once he got it home. He got about a quart out of it. But the dipstick showed oil still in the pan. Ended up taking the tractor half apart to get the pan off. The oil was thick enough it would not drain.. He did four oil changes on it before it quit plugging oil filters. The hose from the air cleaner to the intake manifold had several cracks in it. Good luck.
Well... I was going to suggest that even though there would be shipping involved, send that Perkins to JAMSI as a collab, but the issues with crank placement make way too much sense - they don't line bore either, but they do grind cranks. I'm sure the cleaning guy would have said the same things as your local shop. On the other hand, when you have a shop local to you that you trust, definitely worth sticking with them. Looking forward to the next videos, sounds like you set yourself up for success (as much as you could.)
I know it is not close by but check out Jim's Automotive Machine Shop in Gill, Colorado. He has the equipment to fix up all most any block and does a lot of diesel work. Watching him change the centers on a Pontiac crankshaft convinced me he knows his business.
I hope you got the seller to watch your tear down, of that supposedly working engine. He should either give you your money back plus your labour or a full rebuild kit & all parts for free. But at least you got some free channel content.
A 1.7 Isuzu Turbo Diesel or the 2.2 Isuzu turbo diesel from a thermo king refrigerated truck trailer are perfect engines to swap into any skid steer. The dimensions are spot on for most make & model engine bays. The 2.2 litre motor is in alot of freezer/refrigerator trailers but none turbo. The 1.7 litre Turbo Diesel is around 110BHP so has plenty of power and is great on fuel . .
RTV makes a great gasket .The install is the hard part . It glues to both surfaces ,oil can't get under it , it flexible and does not absorb oil . Just need clean dry metal . It works .
Howdy Matt, I know that you are into rebuilding these things yourself but if you need some professional help I might suggest you look at Dave's Auto Center in Salt Lake, UT. He does do line boring, he does have a complete machine shop, he does have a baking facility to cook all the grease and oils out of the parts and then he puts them into a wash machine to clean them up. He also does a simulator test run on the engine before it gets fired up. He does have a very impressive business and his You tube videos are informative and well done. At least check out his videos and if you have questions you could always call and ask. Just thought you'd like to know. Looking forward to the next video! Keep'em coming!
Seems like they refunded his money and he kept the engine for a complete rebuild and he said he like the work for learning and knowing he will get almost a new engine after the rebuild.
pretty wild that rolls royce engine has the right bolt pattern to fit to the hydraulic pump. I wouldn't have expected that for a 75 year old engine but i'm no mechanic or engineer. How cool would it be to have a rolls royce powered skid steer though... for sure would need to get a big hood ornament made for it.
In my youth I made the mistake of running my car without an air filter, with similar results. The bore ovality could be measured with a tape measure. Curiously, it still ran OK but it only did about 100 miles to the gallon - of oil!
I grew up around car guys and repair shops... seen hundreds upon hundreds of engines apart .. NEVER have I seen a cylinder bore with that much step in it.. Good grief!!!
My guess on the engine history is, it was not serviced properly, eventually the crank bearings gave out so crank and bearings were replaced, engine reassembled and machine was sold. All that crud you were finding is the “tell” for that scenario
I just got done rebuilding a Perkins, for an 1980s cat forklift, the person picked it up for pennies, however when we took the engine apart that the engine had a fresh rebuild, and very low hours, but what we did find was three broken pistons nothing metal got in to the bottom end, but but three of the pistons were totally destroyed, it even distorted the top half inch of liner, came to the conclusion that they tried to start it with either or some accidently put gas in it , the owner of this forklift thinks it was either
I'm a little confused. At 12:37 all 4 pistons have an odd shaped hole/indent in them, at 12:41 it's gone and the pistons have a different appearance on top. What's the scoop?
Matt: "I'm not a mechanic..."
Proceeds to to tear into the engine like he's done it for 50 years...
Keep up the great work! It's always a pleasant surprise when one of your videos pops up in my feed...
When Matt says "if you've made it this far"! Dude I've been here since the crawler. The engine comparison at the end was sweet.
Matt, to be perfectly honest, once I saw the compression issue and saw the ring ridge in the bores, I would have gotten my money back. At least you documented everything you found. Thankfully the engine shop will make good on it. I'm looking forward to seeing how this project turns out.
He did get his money back.
I would have stopped at that point and returned the engine.
@@_Otaku-kt8beWell he still has the engine and a lot of work and cost ahead to get it running. How much did he back? He didn't say.
I would say that engine has done more than a thousand hours or very little to no maintenance, the good thing is we get another great video to watch.
Matt wishing you and yours and Charlie a very happy Christmas from the UK
I'm not a mechanic he said lol, and I'm not an air breather lol. If your not a mechanic I don't know who is.
Exactly what I was thinking! 😂
Came here to say the exact same thing
that's funny, I hear a lot of UA-camrs say that, I'm not a mechanic, but they're doing mechanic stuff, and they know as much as mechanics know.. lol..
It's in case they screw up as so many commenters are so quick to jump on people's arses the second they do something they deem as in correct followed by "" Call yourself a Mechanic "" followed by their insults. It's a good way to cover their backsides. .
Matt you are way easy going than I am. I would have been pissed!!
How in the hell does a reputable shop mail this out? I can see a layman pulling an engine and selling it without checking it over or even testing it but this is just unforgivable.
Congratulations Matt on passing 100k subs! So very well deserved, best in class channel by far!
Matt we both live in the same Metro area. We have very few Automotive Machine Shops left in the area and the ones left are aging out. Skills are being lost forever. It is part of the disposable society we now live in. Keep up the good work enjoy the videos.

Have you considered making a Unistrut trolley bridge crane between them? 600lbs capacity should be easy and 1200 not too hard. Over head lifts just seem so useful, especially as you get older.
This was like an episode of "I do cars" except no extra ventilation holes and the dipstick tube came out without a fight. Lol
Matt, Mud Daubers plug every 1/4" hole on the East Coast in everything possible. I live in PA, and every hole in my Dewalt blower, the cooking Grill, and the ground holes in outside receptacles are plugged.
I just love your ‘can do’ attitude. It is really refreshing 🇬🇧😊
What a bummer. At least we all are now more knowledgeable in what happens when you let a diesel engine run without a air cleaner for a long time.

If the oil looks like wet JB Weld then you are going to have a bad day :)
beside the work you stated, i would suggest you also have the block boiled, new freeze plugs and cam bearing install at the machine shop
Why waste any money on it?
Should have sent it back when you found no compression
Very Interesting! Usually you see some oil starvation issues with totally grenaded internals on yt, very interesting to see what a bunch of dirt does. When I saw that piston wiggling around, my first though was - that thing ran??? Guess I never saw a video of a dirt-filled engine :)
I totally understand you wanting to take it apart, even though its clearly dead. I would have done the same on a free, dead engine.
YAYY finally update on the skidsteer ^_^
*- The white "corrosion" deposits at **33:58** that you ask about is what I would call "hard water" mineral deposits such as calcium and magnesium.*
Or, possibly, the dried tears of the previous owner?
Great video thanks for putting it all together!
Hey Matt, sorry to see that you got a bum [skid] "steer" engine. No pun intended. What a lousy Christmas present that turned out to be. I admire your tenacity and calm headedness in handling these obstacles.

Superb tear-down and analysis. Running without an air filter and not changing oil at specified intervals is destructive. I hope you get reimbursed for your work. Cheers! Will be looking for more of your videos.

Good thing you are smart enough to check it out before just accepting it was good and getting it installed!
The white / tan dust you were digging out of the round holes are Mud Dauber Wasp Nests there is a larva in each hole. Sorry, this happened to you, but you will make the engine better than new. JeffinMaine
Too bad it didn't work out - glad you were made whole on it - Merry Christmas.
I never clicked so fast mate keep em coming
Always a gamble buying a used engine on the owners word. 🤔
Except if this engine was bought from a reputable shop they are fucking their own reputation over badly.
YES FOR SURE...GOOD RUNNING. ENGINE MY BUTT....WHAT A BIG DISAPPOINTMENT. IT IS GOING TO TAKE A FULL REBUILD. I THINK I WOULD HAVE SENT IT BACK AND LOOKED FOR A BETTER ENGINE. THAT ONE WAS HEAVILY USED AND COMPLETELY NEGLECTED.
I was like the bolts on top and bottom. I was there for that struggle ive done a lot with all the styles of engines you listed.
Bummer for sure - I think with equipment like this the air cleaner came apart, and the thing was just run, and run, making "pay-dirt" until it wouldn't start. Great diagnosis, and very true about machining and master machinists getting harder and harder to come by. Great video editing to! Thank you for sharing ...
That engine was definitely dusted...IMO
For a person that claims to, "Not be a mechanic"! You have figured out quite a bit of obscure information about these engines! Besides anyone that can disassemble and reassemble an old 50s caterpillar dozer. And make look as good and run as good as you did! You're at least an honorary mechanic!

Send all your machining to those JAMSI guys. That’d be a cool collab. Those guys seem like some nice honest guys.

yes!!! ive been waiting on this vid!!
make sure you check your crankshaft for out of round
buen video pero la voz que le pusieron asubtitulos jaja suena a sudamericano saludos y pasa buenas fiestas matt

I did enjoy the tear down though. 👍🏻
Thank God, you checked it before you put it in the machine
They probably forgot to add a zero on those engine hours.
Matt , If your going to install that motor into your skid steer , while you have the empty Core , use it to fab your engine mounts, less weight to sling around ... Might have to re-install front cover for width of front mounts ..
Not sure why you’re messing with a cratered engine rather than getting a refund . You’ve shown it’s worn out .
“It’s a runner.” Like run away. Sorry man that stinks.
Yanmar is a great engine had one in a older tractor, it was beat up by it previously older I did minor work to it and it ran great till the day I sold it. Your going to love it once it’s fixed
The hard part isn't disassembling the engine...but rebuilding it up to specs. Personally I'd opt to buy a running engine from a Diesel generator.
Matt, it looks like there were two issues that contributed to the demise of the engine poor air filtering and no oil changes. A friend bought a Kubota tractor that had a similar issue with really thick oil. Luckily he went to change the oil once he got it home. He got about a quart out of it. But the dipstick showed oil still in the pan. Ended up taking the tractor half apart to get the pan off. The oil was thick enough it would not drain.. He did four oil changes on it before it quit plugging oil filters. The hose from the air cleaner to the intake manifold had several cracks in it.
Good luck.
Excellent video thank you so much .
Lol sure hope it fits, cool video even still.

Glad they didn't say you voided the warranty taking it apart.
those yanmars are the best!! i love all the tnv70 series......i just started watching....i hope it runs...i guess ill see
well dang that sucks man well at least you got to make a cool interesting video out of it so thats good
Matt, some Yammar engines cannot be dry sleeved, as the sleeve doesn't match the fire ring in the head gasket.
Fair warning.
Best wishes all.
Looks like all you bought was the block! Sorry to see that, but if anyone can fix it, I would count on you!
I know it is not close by but check out Jim's Automotive Machine Shop in Gill, Colorado. He has the equipment to fix up all most any block and does a lot of diesel work. Watching him change the centers on a Pontiac crankshaft convinced me he knows his business.
You should get it "baked" to clean the block properly
I hope you got the seller to watch your tear down, of that supposedly working engine. He should either give you your money back plus your labour or a full rebuild kit & all parts for free. But at least you got some free channel content.
Stay safe and we'll see you next time.

I was about to suggest thread locker was used, seeing how easily they came out with heat. You beat me to it.
Junk engine, straight back for a refund
Seems like they refunded his money and he kept the engine for a complete rebuild and he said he like the work for learning and knowing he will get almost a new engine after the rebuild.
After seeing the empty oil filter, pretty much a waste of time to look at anything else.
After market head gasket and its funny how the valve reliefs look like balls😅
I think you got ripped.
Engine definitely been run with no air filter, bores eaten by heavy air dust mixture, probably too far gone for a rebore and oversized pistons
Those tables look like old Pitney Bowes mail sorting tables. I have two and they are strong.
pretty wild that rolls royce engine has the right bolt pattern to fit to the hydraulic pump. I wouldn't have expected that for a 75 year old engine but i'm no mechanic or engineer. How cool would it be to have a rolls royce powered skid steer though... for sure would need to get a big hood ornament made for it.
@12:37 - Imagine seeing one of your legitimate engines being torn apart for all to see. Like the Tom Evans thing.
Oooooh that burn is going to leave s a scar. Ouch. Where is Mend it Mark when you need him?
A "reputable" shop? Not a chance. That engine should never have been sent out. I'm sorry they ripped you off so bad.
In my youth I made the mistake of running my car without an air filter, with similar results. The bore ovality could be measured with a tape measure. Curiously, it still ran OK but it only did about 100 miles to the gallon - of oil!
I think the brown streak on bearings is the copper base that the babbit is put on.
BTW when removing block plugs heat around it not the plug itself, remember heat makes things expand
looks like 8000 hr eng
I grew up around car guys and repair shops... seen hundreds upon hundreds of engines apart .. NEVER have I seen a cylinder bore with that much step in it.. Good grief!!!
My guess on the engine history is, it was not serviced properly, eventually the crank bearings gave out so crank and bearings were replaced, engine reassembled and machine was sold. All that crud you were finding is the “tell” for that scenario
never seen cylinders worn this bad.
That engine is worse than the original which itself was really bad. Matt got ripped off big time.
@@snappingbear Not really.
Love it so much keep it up as always 💘
like a used a salesman said "it was running before it died" !!
I just got done rebuilding a Perkins, for an 1980s cat forklift, the person picked it up for pennies, however when we took the engine apart that the engine had a fresh rebuild, and very low hours, but what we did find was three broken pistons nothing metal got in to the bottom end, but but three of the pistons were totally destroyed, it even distorted the top half inch of liner, came to the conclusion that they tried to start it with either or some accidently put gas in it , the owner of this forklift thinks it was either
I had 270k on my 2002 Camry 4 cyl and had the valve cover gasket replaced and the mechanics found no sludge at all! Synthetic oil!
I'm a little confused. At 12:37 all 4 pistons have an odd shaped hole/indent in them, at 12:41 it's gone and the pistons have a different appearance on top. What's the scoop?
Does the seller know how many subs you have?
