This is what you can’t find in the world today, “will it matter, probably not but I don’t like it “ spoken like the technician and gentleman that he is. My hats off to you sir. 24:06
23:42 Actually
Cleaning guy is a great presenter. He should get a raise this year! Thanks guys 😊
Yeah, the cleaning guy does an excellent job.
the next Norm Abram
He's doing triple duty, should get a raise
Just a note - your content is compelling enough that I don't think you need to add music or sound effects.
100% agree, in fact the audio of Jim speaking needs to be louder.
Strongly agree - was going to also write this comment. I watch every video, and have found myself starting to scrub forward since the music started getting added.
I 3rd that, let’s pass the motion 👍🇦🇺
same boat!
When the shot was blurred, I was just listening (and doing something else!) I didn’t notice. It was interesting even without seeing.
There’s nothing I appreciate more than someone who takes pride in their work . Anyone can do a job , but doing it right , and doing it better is what makes a true craftsman.
Love this channel for many reasons; craftsmanship, attention to detail, and watching a father and son working side by side. If I could add one insignificant comment, I prefer sounds of the machine shop over music and motor sounds.
I'm really glad your father knows how much detail we want to see - and how to present what he's doing so well. He's got a professional presentation style. Editing is top shelf! Thank you all of the channel!
I strangely enjoyed the valve grinding closeups. Watching the oil flow, listening to the sound of the wheel was honestly relaxing.
Your shop is very nice, I hope these videos raise attention, the kind that lines Your pockets. That degree of tooling and the maintance of them ain´t growing on trees and good work deserves good pay.
I fix bicycles as a hobby and earned 30$ basically for changing two tires and one tube- sounds simple, right? Well, no.
I had to clean, inspect and grease the bearings, inspect the surfaces where the tire sits and then put it all together and make the tires sit and run true.
It was 45mins of work but the customer appreciated the effort and I have another one under the belt that will come back.
I was a junkie not so long ago and had to train my brain to naturally spill out dopamine and a satisfied customer does just that. Worth it.
Have a nice time, Greetings from the other side of the pond!
you sound like a serial killer.
@LaLaLand.Germany
Congratulations on your success!
I know it's not easy; well done Sir, and much respect to you!
Cheers!
The valve grinding brought up a memory from my senior year shop class, they brought a new class with engine repair. We got small engines that were donated and we took them apart, cleaned and refinished what we could and tried to get them running. My partner and I had an exhaust valve that was quite burnt on the seat, all we could do is lap them with grinding compound. I and my partner grinded that valve by hand for two days, in that class, so about 1:30 minutes. Am proud to say our engine did bust off first though. That was a fun class.
bust off.
I had an Austin A Series 1000 with similar issues. I spun the valve in a power drill and filed it clean. The seat had some pitting but cleaned up with lapping paste. A new valve and seat were the correct fix but I was extremely broke. It ran for 10,000 miles with no problems until rust finally scrapped the car.
Cleaning guy knows a LOT about cleaning. Best to keep him.
The cleaning guy is the pride of the shop. He Learns new things well.
Sometimes, less is more when it comes to theme songs and the sounds of unseen engines revving.
A lot of machine shops back in the 80's did as they wanted, I shopped around along time to find one to do to it correctly. I am a pensioner so I do remember how farm equipment was assembled I grew up on a farm.
You Sir, are the guru on top of the mountain!. No one can beat your knowlege and demeanor. Your son is blessed to learn from you. Thank you.
Jim, Thank you for what I'm feeling about having watched this series. It was a privilege to watch it all.
Man, I would like nothing more than to just sit there and listen to the cleaning guy talk shop.
Excellent work Jim. Nobody could say you are not a perfectionist ! Being proud of your work is something everyone should aspire to. You Jim are there already!
Dad always said if it’s worth doing it’s worth doing right, he taught my brothers and me this, we taught our children this, and our children are teaching their children this. We had a used Corvette sales only, body shop, parts, and service store, there were plenty of times when people would bring us cars that they took somewhere else because the other shop did a subpar job. We only did it right or we didn’t do it, if the customer couldn’t afford our prices and it was a simple job we would tell the customer how to do it themselves so they could save the money. Those people became lifelong customers.
These guys always go the extra mile. Perfection my friend.
You guys are killing it. Being as transparent as you guys are, makes it even better. Excellent content, love it. I watch every video. I hope you are getting compensated well. You deserve it.
Good job Jim.
Very thorough job.
Definitely going to be a nice engine.
I worked on Minneapolis Molines maybe 45 - 47 years ago.
Alot of times the heads were cracked.
We had them furnace welded back in the day.
Then we would install new guides and seats.
But the cracks were leaking water.
Nice repair on the valve guide boss.
I like your new lathe.
Thanks for sharing.
Have a great day.
Janitor did an outstanding job !!
I love the assembly lube joke where you call it ketchup even though it is just assembly lube in a ketchup bottle.
It did look a bit like ketchup too :)
Or is it?
@@iaial0 Next time I rebuild an engine I'll try using ketchup instead of assembly lube. I've got an early 60's Ford Econoline pickup that needs work. (Those engines are so tough I bet you could use ketchup and it would still work ;)
I did the interference valve fit.
But I gladly accept your practice of valve and seat matching angles; as it's been 40 years since I last did a valve job.
The experience level shown on your videos is amazing. Thanks for sharing! I hope the shop I end up using has as much knowledge and professionalism as your shop shows.
It was really interesting that you commented on the old way of doing the valves and seats. I worked as an automotive machinist back in the early1980's and the machines we thought were really good seem really poor compared to what your using. We worked hard and I'd I as good as we possibly could, but it not the precise product that your getting. And I'm surprised at just how much I have forgotten. I spent the rest of my career working on turbine engines.
Absolute masterclass from the cleaning guy 🙏
I agree. They should hire that cleaning guy on as a machinist!😁
hate to say it , but that is "Normal" powercell/ Lanova injection system cracks . in fact when i was AG road wrench , Chuck Habrick , Habrick machine Amersterdam NY advised me ; we pressure test , stake around the seats a few places and go about our usual work as ALL this type and all the different brands have similar cracks . " many crack from face into injector hole also . if not into the injector seat or "water" , we ran them , just gove owner proper warning and choice ; repair , replace , or run it . did work for James MacFadden sharon spring NY , near every such head , all colors , same cracks
In hindsight, it looks like a really bad design. When diesel cars went from pre-chamber to direct injection, cracked cylinder heads became a thing of the past, where before it was something you'd have to expect, certainly on turbo diesels.
never thought of using a big sharpie like that to see the valve pattern...... learn something every day!
Aprendermos por toda vida.
Cada dia um aprendizado novo.
Abraços do Brasil 🇧🇷
I was a heavy duty mechanic all my life. I admire your skills and dedication. Thank you for sharing.
Fantastic Craftsmanship. Wonderful Video .Thanks for sharing !
Great work! It is so fun to assemble new clean and properly machined parts.
Great job guys!!
I love watching other ppl work on stuff, makes me feel like I also accomplished something heh
Thanks for the video folks =)
What a pleasure to watch a true craftsman at work. Very enjoyable.
Watching the new valves get cleaned up actually showed why it's a good idea to grind them even though they're brand new. If they'd been perfect from the factory they would have ground the marker off evenly. But a few of them didn't get cleanly off evenly until a few passes
Gorgeous work and it's amazing to watch a master at his craft.
Great work and professionalism
Wow that was some impressive work. The attention to detail was very impressive
On rough heads like that I have occasionally smeared jb weld in the pits before machining off and it gave a nice gasket surface with minimal removal.
Amazing work as usual guys.
I really like watching his videos! Every time I watch these videos i want to start machining heads and blocks ! Inspiring!
Love the machining skills
I’m continually astounded with your knowledge of ICE’s, your craftsmanship, machining skills and attention to detail and quality.
Really enjoy watching your dad do his thing. So much wisdom from years and years of experience. So glad he was willing to get outside his comfort zone and take on videoing himself working. Great job!
This dude must charge a fortune. His work is impeccable, attention to detail is second to none!! Love this channel!
So satisfying to see a master machinist at work. 👍
29:30 No worries Sir. We are along for the knowledge... not the entertainment. Thank you for all that you do to keep this industry alive. Anyone else try to find a good machine shop lately?... It's tough out there. Thanks and congrats on the new little one. All the best to you and yours. Thanks again.
A BIG raise 😄 Going through a rough time right now in my life financially and watching these videos makes life just that much better. Thanks Guys.
Thanks for showing this!
Enjoyed this series, always great to see old iron get a 2nd life
Great job Jim!
Another great job done by the cleaning guy....good content and thanks 👍
Excellent Video Jim! Thanks! I hope Jim's Wife and Baby are both doing well!
Progressive valve springs are used for dampening unwanted harmonics. Same thing can be achived by using linear inner and outer springs.
Always fascinated watching how a true master does machine work. The quality of the work you do is outstanding.
I have some engine work that needs doing and wish I was 5000 miles closer to your shop.!!
Best wishes 🇬🇧
Thank you all for another great video!!
Beautiful work sir!!
Fantastic viewing thank you
Good for you! Great Job! I would have done this if this had been my shop with a new lathe!
Love learning about what you guys do!
Thanks for another video with 'Dad', great presentation skills!
Another excellent job Sir!
Better than factory machining... We need more shops like this!
A true credit to his professions
Thanks for sharing 👍
I saw that top edge and thought I would clean that up. I’m 75 and long retired and thought it’s really not an issue but I would have taken it off just the old timer in me. I laughed out loud when the cleaning guy took a second look and did it just because he knew it was there. What a great shop doing wonderful work on great equipment.
Glad to see you checking the NEW parts for being in spec.. I just don't trust QC anymore now that most parts are manufactured over seas.
The ol' man has still got it!
I love your attention to details! I'd love to see a video featuring the Serdi machine you are doing the machining on. Show & tell about the floating air bed & how this helps the head to align with the cutting tool. Also explain Serdis Vacuum valve seat testing & "bar" vacuum gauge & minimum reading to pass (example: -0.6 bar is minimum. -0.7 bar is good & needs no further machine work or lapping, etc.)
I used to use a Serdi vacuum valve seat tester & occasionally lap valves & retest. Finally convinced bosses/engineers to buy one for our building. I built a custom, pivoting, portable stand out of an HF welding cart. Got a friend to cut the Serdi logo on red vinyl & put the logo all over the cart.
We used it in test cells to gauge engine health in our diagnostics without complete disassembly. Thanks! Paul
thanks for another great video !
Great episode Jim
I'm amazed by how much faster you work when the music is playing!
Great work, I really appreciate you taking the time to show your trade.
Nice work!
Amazing work
I love these videos. One suggestion, I'd love to see some of your engines first start-up, as the icing on a great video.
your shirt reminds me of math class in the 1980's
"This being stock, catsup is fine"! The Cleaning Guy knows machine work, is a great presenter, AND has a sense of humor. Who knew? 😉 Somebody might be outta a job!
Teaching old dogs new tricks. I'll probably never use but I love to learn. Thank you
Loved watching this
Top tier solo content.
The cleaning guy should get at least another day, if not two! of vacation time this year....but not in a row😁👍🏻🥃
Great job Jim!!!
Facing valves and cutting seats was one of my favorite jobs when I was learning my trade. The company had several blocks of vehicles with the same engines and as they were petrol/gas engines doing stop start city work the valves did not last that long, so we had a lot of head work. If time was tight due to workload, we would use brand new valves for several heads to save time and it was my job to go back and clean and measure the old ones and face the ones that were ok to use again. We did not fit new valve seat inserts that was done at an outside shop, but we did cut the new seats in them with the old stone synchro cutter set up. Not as fancy as your machine but it worked well enough. We had 6 or so change over heads for those couple of groups of engines with one or two being done every day. I was taught to cut to interference angles as I was told it was better for clearing carbon deposits from the face with the low-grade fuel we were using. As we moved into more diesel vehicles our valve work slowed down. Pity because I liked it.
The in depth content on this channel is amazing.I ran across a similar channel thats almost as good but I forgot its name.I think it had a Josh guy on it but I may be mistaken
Maybe this guy?

Oh yeah, lets game it out josh haha
Was it automotive machining or just a machine shop? You might be thinking of Josh Topper over at Topper Machine.

@@noahingram8052 Do you know of this Josh fellow ?I'm trying to find his channel
We had a much bigger version of that spray cabinet (with caustic soda). Afterwards we would high pressure steam the parts then immediately wipe, liberally, with auto trans fluid
I like seeing you use a vacuum to clean the chips instead of the air gun.
50:36 that's such a good idea that i'm genuinely thinking of copying that with some of the more used and abused engines in my brother's farm fleet.
Excellent.
Nice work 😊
Wow it's impressive how much the cleaning guy has picked up just from being around the shop
This was a great watch! The cleaning guy is going to give you a run for your money.
They're a bit different to the freeze or Welch plugs that I have used about 20 years ago when I rebuilt a few engines.
I used brass Welch plugs & I used that shellac based non hardening gasket cement on both mating surfaces then I began tapping them in to start them off then I used a socket of the same diameter as the inside of the Welch plug & an extension bar to drive them home.
None of them ever leaked on me, I did it to a Nissan RB30DE engine which I built & a 3.8 litre Buick LN3 - L27 engine,I may have done it to a Toyota 3S-FE engine for my brothers old Toyota Camry as well !
You know what cleaning guy i think you just bought yourself another week with that good job. Lol great video
51:20 The Ketchup lube joke never gets old!
Cleaning up the exhaust ports on the heads were spot on. That's all I would have wanted removed. As I can remember the owner wanted to rebuild his tractor as factory new. Kind of a "Parade Princess".
Nice job
On most inline six cylinder engines the rear head takes a lot more heat... Would it be advisable to install that head to the front of the engine? Your two are great to watch... I am a perfectionist as well and like to have things done the best, and as correct as possible... Thanks! Ron from Sandy, UT.
Great job. The ketchup cracks me up.
Awesome that’s for sharing
Mestre, me ensine sua arte.
Sou um bom rapaz!
