Andy, I hope you realize how great of a bunch of kids your wife and you have raised. I'll bet there's no play station in your household. You should be proud, great job.
My theme in life when it comes to anything electrical is 'Check your grounds'. I don't know how many times that I have replaced something in the way of electronics or electrical only to find out that the problem was a bad ground or a corroded connection.
I like how Andrew snagged on to the 9620 . Reminds me of when we took delivery of our 4320 . I was about his age and remember thinking to myself that it was gonna be my tractor. I pounded a lot of acres with that old Deere and it’s still on the farm today.Another great video,. Keep them coming!
Man Andy, talk about when it rains it pours ! You should be so proud of your kids , its a all hands on deck but what else would you expect from a farm family, everyone should spend a year on a farm, so many lifes lessons and great work ethic ! 🚜🇺🇲 Kids these days could learn so much if they would just put down their phones spend all day in front of a screen, hats off to you !!
Keep some dielectric grease handy. Put it on those problem connections to reduce corrosion. But you probably know that already, and you are thinking that I am an armchair expert... 🤣 Great video, as usual. All of your fine family and staff going the extra distance, all the time.👍👍
Great realistic portrayal of everyday family farm life...just on a much larger scale than most of us remember that grew up on family farms 50 years ago lol.
Great video Andy!! I have never seen such a vague, obscure or just kooky "try this" remedy actually "fix" a problem. "Kick any 2 front tires twice, turn the key on and off 4 times, leave it on the last time, kick any of the rear tires twice, best to kick left side tires, turn off key & flash the lights twice. That should keep your tractor running in tip-top form!"
Red, green, blue, yellow and orange all break. In most cases Deere's dealer support and parts tracking beats the others more often than not. Having a guy like Jake on your local team is just another great asset to the Deere team.
That’s probably why John Deere is so popular everywhere, because their service and stuff is as good as it gets plus they have so many dealers it’s fairly easy to get parts
Not every dealer is that good, but the best earned their business, and are 100% customer focused. Service after the sale leads to more sales, and quality staff is more important than parts in stock. Color doesn't matter, the people do.
What ? It varies greatly from dealer to dealer the Deere dealer here is mediocre at best they've lost a lot of business to Agco here, there's A lot of Massey's and Fendts, our Agco dealer is way better than Deere.
That was good thinking taking the clamp off the C500. It's nice to have stuff when you're doing things. Them kind of breakdowns always kill me.. you lose a clamp or a plug that looks pretty normal for some reason doesn't have a good connection... I always think to myself, did somebody sabotage me here lol. Awesome video Andy keep her rolling
Andy thanks for sharing the great videos of your farming operation especially the day to day events. I grew up around farming and especially being around machinery! It’s an inspiration how your daughters have been encouraged to take on the vocation! Great job Andy! Thank you
Andy is lucky to get the excellent dealer support and service from caz equipment that he does and I have family that used to farm in the upstate area years ago and had the same experience at their old location. They stand behind the local farmers that are left in that area . Here in central Florida not so much you’re lucky if the local Deere service dept can fix your riding lawn mower the first time without having to go back several times just for them to level a mower deck properly. Or go to pick a mower up because the noise underneath the deck was fixed just to find out it still makes the same noise. Excellent dealer support , sales and service close to your operation makes all the difference In what brand you buy .
John Deere multi purpose spray lube on the rusty electrical studs before taking them apart. Dielectric grease everything before reassembling!! Saves lots of problems!!!
If I ever win the lottery I’m just going to pack up be a ghost and go work for Andy maybe he will adopt me 🤣 smart man with a great family. Keep up the great work
I had a problem similar to that back a few years ago with an Ingersoll garden tractor I was out mowin the lawn and it would just stall out I had plenty of fuel in it every time I went to mow the lawn it did that so it we ended up with it in the shop several times and we got to the point where we decided to sell it.
Takes me back to the 60s on my grandparents farm. They had a McCormick-Deering drill that was originally pulled by horses. I would ride on the back to keep checking the alfalfa seed boxes while planting oats. I was wondering if they still planted alfalfa and oats/wheat at the same time because you are planting alfalfa on it's own but I see that the drill is still set up to do both at once.
Just a remark about your transmission fluid in the Allison. On the old Ford C6s from the 1960s we often used hydraulic fluid in these if we didn't have ATF. Very similar viscosity and makeup. This was generally a stop gap measure and if the vehicle was to be driven tens of thousands of more miles we'd pldrain the transmission and then put new ATF in. But in an old vehicle, who knows? I never ran something long term on hydraulic fluid to know how long or well it would work in the transmission. I'm not familiar with Allison ATF but the G.M. transmifluid from decades ago was somewhat different from that of Fords or Mopars. The G.M. Dexron, I think it was called, was dyed a more orangy colour and it also had a burnt smell when it was brand new. Ford's and Mopar's both looked like hydraulic fluid of the time, cherry red and no burnt smell. If you drained the Allison entirely then perhaps you got rid of some filings or debris from the valve body and the hydraulic fluid is similar enough in viscosity to work. Probably some different additives but it's very possible the base oil product of for both ATF and hydraulic fluid are the same thing, at least in viscosity terms.
Many years ago I put hydraulic oil in a transmission that wouldn't move with ATF and i drove it for a year or so after. Couldn't believe how good it worked.
One would wonder why an engineer would put all those modules and exposed electrical connections on the outside of the cab...? Thanks for the video Andy.
I had the same problem I used diesel engine oil worked great no problems also a friend of mine said he poured a bottle of blending alcohol 100% in it and that dried up the bands he said it worked
I’ve been having trouble with my freightliner starting in the morning. Click click click. I took and cleaned all connections on the starter, everything looked clean but there must have been enough resistance somewhere to cause the issue because now it’s been fine for 3 weeks.
Andy I see you use the word younder. So funny when I hear a northerner use the word. Because when I was in the army Yankees from PA would laugh and ask were the heck is that.
Hi Andy I don’t know if you noticed or not but the bracket/sheild that the elbow goes round is broken at the base which could have caused the band clamp to come loose or break if that was vibrating against it. Just a thought if that was the cause wouldn’t want it happening again 😉
Andy , I got kinda a kick out of your negativity on fixing the 8360 !! Don't you just love working on something and fixing it and don't know why it really worked?? Makes it hard to believe it will work the next time and finally you know it is fixed for now, until the next time 🙏🙏
I think it is rather obvious Andrew was trying to make you feel better for busting your tractor. He, Alex, Sarah, Charlotte and Jared all probably drew straws to see who would take one for the team. 😉
At 21:50 is that black bracket broken or cracked. Look at the bottom it's rusty and could be bad. Always on the fix and you never seem to get upset. Hope things are going well for you. You and the crew stay safe. AND HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY TO MRS H .
Be careful the do gooders don't want to take that trolley tack bed for a walking path. A farm next to a nearby village up here lost some of it's fields because the village wanted to use the old railroad bed for a walking path. What a pain to work around the remaining land.
Hey Andy and family, Andy, did you notice that black bracket on Andrew’s tractor is broke? Looks like it needs to be welded! Might want to fix that before it breaks somewhere else. God bless and stay safe all! The black bracket is forward to the clamp you just put on! It was moving when your hand or arm brushed up against it! It’s right behind the oil dip stick also.
Hi Andy and everyone from northwest Missouri would a skid loader with a small post auger work to dry the water holes out drill holes let the water drain down bud
Check that power stud on the inside of the cab, there are 2 nuts and I guarantee the inner one will be loose, you must've moved it just enough to make connection again
How many hours those ivt 8rs got and have you had any problems with them? Looking at one myself with 5k hours and lots of guys seem to have a harsh opinion vs the IVT
Andy, I hope you realize how great of a bunch of kids your wife and you have raised. I'll bet there's no play station in your household. You should be proud, great job.
I don't think there's a TV in the house
Great family for sure.
The kids all had the big green play stations to grow up with. :)

Who needs a playstation when you have farm simulator in real life
My theme in life when it comes to anything electrical is 'Check your grounds'. I don't know how many times that I have replaced something in the way of electronics or electrical only to find out that the problem was a bad ground or a corroded connection.
Andy the bracket in front of the clamp you replaced is broken. Great job and the kids have a impressive work ethic. Good job mom and dad.
cracked clean through and rusty -- been there a while
Takes a real man to pull off a care bear air freshener
Great show. Was awesome when JR knew to stop and Alex? Correctly guessed what was wrong and confirmed the issue. Impressive!

Boy it would have been fun to drive one of those big tractors when I was a little boy like yours.
It's always the little that add up to a big thing!
The bracket under that thing that came off is broken. Well it has a crack in it. On the 9620 I seen it when you was putting the clamp on.
Great video.Andy, in the aviation world we safety wire V Band clamps and the lock nuts are a one.time use item. Real pain.
Hey thanks Andy - machinery equipment failures are stressful but man they make fantastic and interesting videos such as this one -
Cheers
That's farming,everyday problem solving🛠Great job👍

Another good one Andy 👍 🚜🇺🇲
Andrew may have broke it but knew enough to stop.
Andy the black Safety cover in front of the V clamp you replaced is cracked.
Great video you have great patience

The style you needed is different but I have used two regular clamps on a rubber turbo boost hose to get home.
I TOTALLY ENJOYED WATCHING THE VIDEO ANDY 😊
Two breakdowns and you are only behind a couple of hours, not too shabby!
Thanks Andy for another great video.
If I ever win the lottery I’m just going to pack up be a ghost and go work for Andy maybe he will adopt me 🤣 smart man with a great family. Keep up the great work
Now time to add that to your maintenance/repair log for that tractor lol
Dammitt Andrew 🤦♂️🤷♂️🤣
Hi Andy !
Good job everybody !
the rock picking crew doing a very good job.
Thanks everybody for your time and have a good day at the farm ! 🙋♂️
You have some awesome children.
You have an amazing operation.
Bad connections are a giant pain, especially a bad grounds. They cause all kinds of goofy problems.
One of those days
I had a problem similar to that back a few years ago with an Ingersoll garden tractor I was out mowin the lawn and it would just stall out I had plenty of fuel in it every time I went to mow the lawn it did that so it we ended up with it in the shop several times and we got to the point where we decided to sell it.
Don’t you mean, it sounds much better
Did you notice the bracket is broke behind the oil fill port when you put the clamp on the intake boot???
Thank you for videos

You'll find the clamp when you're combining.
Or 2 yrs from now
Or the chopper metal detector will find it, and shut everything down for a half hour while they dig through the crop to get it. 😂
Another great video 😀🚜👍
$500 a bag 🤯 and here I was thinking it was $100-$200 a bag
The cheap stuff is

There is a crack in the black shield ! (Next to the inlet elbow)
Not a crack, it is broken.
Mucho broken….. we’ll ignore that
Mucho no good
Definitely sounds electronic.
Thanks Andy.
I see some welding in the future...
Thanks for sharing
Good job guys
i use copper based antiseize on lug connections and batterry post and it woorks well for extending connections
One would wonder why an engineer would put all those modules and exposed electrical connections on the outside of the cab...? Thanks for the video Andy.

You’re luckier than me. I fried a ECU blowing dust off like that. 6:04
Seen it lol. 8200 john deere. They were told not to blow the cab out. 😢
Your my favorite farm tuber but I have a question. Is the accent half Cajun, half Texan and half Canadian?
Enjoyed your video Andy. $500.00 a bag that's expensive seed. Have a great day.
Andy I see you use the word younder. So funny when I hear a northerner use the word. Because when I was in the army Yankees from PA would laugh and ask were the heck is that.

It would be interesting to see photos of the trolly.

Hope things are going well for you. You and the crew stay safe.
AND HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY
TO MRS H .
Brake fluid will also soften and swell up old rock hard seals in an automatic transmission.
I was looking at that top connection. It looked rusty. If a connection is bad and arcing they get hot and rust.
The guard by the turbo flange is broke on the bottom.
Be careful the do gooders don't want to take that trolley tack bed for a walking path.
A farm next to a nearby village up here lost some of it's fields because the village wanted to use the old railroad bed for a walking path. What a pain to work around the remaining land.
The bracket is broke, need to do some welding :D
Stay who you are, accent and all lol. Please give thoughts on that black Ford with 7.3 Godzilla.

God bless and stay safe all! The black bracket is forward to the clamp you just put on! It was moving when your hand or arm brushed up against it! It’s right behind the oil dip stick also.
The shield bracket in front of the turbo clamp fix needs a welding fix.
That.s interesting, our John Deere 544B that we use for snow plowing uses the same hydraulic fluid in the tranny and hydraulic system.
It amazes me that the tractor wouldn't detect a bad connection like that and throw a code for it.
Is that JD hydraulic oil or some other brand
Nah that's just junk deere being junk deere always broken down
Your chopper will find the clamp
👍👍👍👍
Hi Andy and everyone from northwest Missouri would a skid loader with a small post auger work to dry the water holes out drill holes let the water drain down bud
Make sure that metal detector is working good on your chopper for that turbo clamp when you do 1st cutting
Check that power stud on the inside of the cab, there are 2 nuts and I guarantee the inner one will be loose, you must've moved it just enough to make connection again
Sarah should have the brand new 4 wheel drive
Do those Wrangler Riggs come with reinforced areas on the thighs or is that an add-on?
That's the first area of my jeans that wears through
Vacuum cleaner can whistle in fast forward. 😉
How many hours those ivt 8rs got and have you had any problems with them? Looking at one myself with 5k hours and lots of guys seem to have a harsh opinion vs the IVT
Do you put alfalfa on top and roll it, or in the ground and roll?
Do you use several different weight of hydraulic oil
What year is that service Truck Andy?
Is that a crack in that black bracket?
In helicopter world we safety wire everything
You would think the ECM would be in a sealed waterproof area on the tractor.
