  • Late-night release! (Sorry Maik)
    Welp, this machine is back. It ran great for a while, but as of late, it has decided not to run. It acts like it has no spark. HOWEVER... the real reason is quite a mystery! AND THEN... I made it worse. Come join in and see what happened, my theory, and how we fixed it. I look forward to your theories as well! See you there!

    Hello Aron again: here comes my final vote… I was excited and wasn’t disappointed! I am very impressed about the starter repair and actually I had my legs crossed when you asked for it. I like the dogs so much! Hercules reminds so much of my Labrador Yogi who passed away in 2021 at the age of 13. Your dogs are simply beautiful! So: congratulations to you for your successful repair and I wish you a good night again. Can imagine the satisfied smile on your face 😃👍😘🍀🌞🐾🐾

      Hi Maik! Thanks for watching, as always. I hope you have a good day today.
      It sounds like Yogi was a good pup. I'm sorry for your loss. 13 is a good long life, though! My Dad always said "The problem with pets, is they just don't live long enough." I grew up with many dogs 🙂 Always Golden Retrievers.
      Thank you for your comments and compliments! And thanks for crossing your fingers and legs 😆

    I don't understand why you don't get more views and subscribers. I find your videos very entertaining. I try to comment on them because it's supposed to help to get your videos recommended to more people.

      Well, my Mechanic friend, thank you for the compliment. That makes my day. I don't really promote my channel outside of just posting videos, so that probably doesn't help. 🙂 Maybe one of these days I'll find other ways to get it out there. I appreciate your comments, and insight!

      Right? The humour, the silliness. Agreed!
      It's just YT being YT. It doesn't like new creators and small channels 😂

    Well, I learned a lot today about how you can jerry rig a starter lol
    Between this video and the push mower engine swap, you are an incredibly entertaining watch!

    Good night, Aron! I just had my breakfast on Monday morning and now have a short entertainment with your video. No rush this week. I will give you a second comment after my concentrated session with the news 👍😃😘🍀🌞 So, give me an hour from now 😂

    "Tell me, does this smell like Ether??"
    Hahaha you took that to a whole new level! 😂
    But future advice, not saying you're wrong for using it, but Ether and small engines is usually not the best mix. Since it's so explosive, better used on much larger engines, and iDi Diesels.
    Like them old Ferds..
    At least that is what I've always been told 😊
    Love the video, as always!

    • @TractorFella
      @TractorFella  2 місяці тому

      Hahah I'm glad you enjoyed it! Thank you for the info. I've heard that before, especially with DI diesels. From some of the vids I've seen, seems like the iDi's could drink it all day! 🤣
      Thanks again for the comment and info! 😁

    Is it Aaron or Aron? Anyway, I liked your video. At the end when you showed the crocs! I was expecting an oil spill. 😂

    • @TractorFella
      @TractorFella  3 місяці тому

      It's Aaron, but no biggie 😁
      I know! I told another commenter I'm on a no-spill roll! lol
      Thanks for the comment! 🍻

    This is odd. The valves usually get looser as things wear.

    • @TractorFella
      @TractorFella  3 місяці тому +1

      I completely missed the mark on that one... As things wear, the valve lash would definitely get looser. Now I'm thoroughly confused, unless the valves are pounding into the seats and recessing the seats?

  • @CaseyStill-fr9sd
    @CaseyStill-fr9sd Місяць тому

    Check valve timing and inspect the head gasket if it ran lean there's also a possibility it's got A blown head gasket

    • @TractorFella
      @TractorFella  Місяць тому

      After the valve adjustment it's been running like a top. We will see if the issue comes back. Thanks for the comment and advice! 🍻

  • @tiredoldmechanic1791

    Maybe the starter is turning too fast or wasn't wound tight enough?

    • @TractorFella
      @TractorFella  3 місяці тому +1

      Hello there!
      That's also a good possibility. The replacement is only 25 dollars, so I wouldn't be surprised if quality control isn't tip-top 😁

    • @tiredoldmechanic1791
      @tiredoldmechanic1791 3 місяці тому

      @@TractorFella The children winding the armatures might not have enough hand strength to pull them tight but that is the first time I've seen that happen. I've seen starter drives lock up so the starter keeps turning with the engine running so it go way beyond it's designed speed and not come apart like that and this one did it in two different windings.

    • @TractorFella
      @TractorFella  3 місяці тому +1

      Bahaha that's probably it! 😆 I guess there's a first time for everything! Unique failure for sure.

    No doubt the new safety clogs did the trick 🐿️🫡
    I must say I’m impressed; no leaks and the carbon distribution center was UNopened ✌️I’ll be dipped!! 😁
    It’s a Honda Dax clone motor and they’re usually pretty strong and durable, it’s the first time I’ve seen valves getting tighter, very odd…
    So in conclusion; Valves does matter 🤭

    • @TractorFella
      @TractorFella  3 місяці тому +1

      Haha, clogs to the rescue!
      I was also impressed. I guess I'm on a streak! JINXED 😆
      Yep, mystery to me. Unless something caused the valves to pound into the head?? Weid stuff. It'll be interesting to see if it happens again.
      Take er easy! 👍🏻🍻
