That mini dozer was a kit sold in the late 50’s early 60’s. My friend Neighbor has one and they are worth a lot on money.
I just bought one a few days ago picked it up for $500 and runs awesome
Jimmy, the VW starter bolted to the bellhousing thar in turn bolted to the transaxle....My brother used to build VW motors and he would use a cutaway VW bellhousing to stand test engines...looks like you have room in there to add a starter and clear the mag. If position is wrong ...depending on application the starter could clock at a different position according to bellhousing application. Also, it looks like you have room for an alternator stand under the shroud. The cooling fan delete shouldn't be a problem as it does nothing to support the alternator. It's just a drive through the alternator to drive the fan.
Also old VWs that have sat awhile can have some sticky valves as well as valve face/seat rust. These normally clear up after start up.. but it doesn't hurt to pop the covers, lube the valves, then give then a few light hammer taps prior to start up. This is also the time to check valve lash
Jesse you have the right stuff. Glad you're on the team. Jimmy needs all the help he can get.
LMAO!!! I will use that line 5 times today!! "I can see the runningness from here."
I just wanted to say, I truly enjoy your videos. You always make laugh even on bad days, so thank you. Keep up the good work.
Jimmy I accidently stumbled across your channel and let me say that I enjoy it so much I just had to take a moment to let you know. Thank you so much for allowing this old man to have something to enjoy. Better than any TV show I have seen. Jimmy you are something else.
Well said
Can I get a clear prop!
@@loishope6605 CleeeeAAaaarR PrRoooooop
Jesse is a great addition to the Jimmy nation!
As long as those are mosquito bites and not fresh track marks on his arms. I was a bit concerned.
@@OverthePantsClayHJlast video there were some on his neck so I’m gonna say mosquito bites.
Jimmy & Jesse's world ftw
Cool video Jimmy. I enjoyed watching you two struggle to get this old 4 cylinder engine to run. Thanks for sharing.
man i love seening these old planes makes me want to get back in to ultralights
For the first million or so prop throws were you running into basically a vapor lock with the squeeze bottle? I didn't see a vent hole to allow the fuel to flow freely from it.
A vent hole would definitely be needed
One thing I learned long ago, that first start is always the hardest.
2 Jimmy videos in one day sweeeeeeeeet, Clear Prop & throw it.
That little dozer looks like one you could buy yrs ago. They were usually for sale in the back of magazines. You should buy that and use it to tow your small aircraft.
Jimmy needs that little dozer!
They still make them today. Even have versions with a front loader and backhoe. Also make ones that are a little bigger.
Struck mini-dozer! So cool. I wanted one of those really-really bad as a kid. I remember having them send me their catalog, (60's I think),. They're a bit of a collector thing nowadays. I think that airplane might need a re-cover. Just a guess, 😁
Morning coffee and a new video from Jimmy's World.....only way to start the day..!
A plus for maximum effort on this one Jimmy!😮
That old refrigerator will probably still work! Unlike the ones you buy today where the compressor goes out in 2 to 3 years
Today’s outlets would burn up trying to feed 40 amps to start the compressor lol
A modern fridge will last ten years plus, easily.
@@johnnunn8688 I believe he was being funny
it is all those silicon diodes
@@gavinkeller183 if so, he failed; miserably.
Jesse is sitting on that thing like he's riding a 4 wheeler. He's making sure none of those spiders climb up on him lol. Jimmy if Jesse rides in this thing you better put a parachute on him because if one of those spiders climb up on him he's bailing out
Thanks for the audio improvements - sounds much better, headphone users appreciate the levels not getting low then spiking. GRACIAS!
I love old sheds and the stuff they hold
I like how ya aim the plane directly at the rental car.
he has the extra insurance
You needed to have your fuel bottle vented, a closed bottle system would create reverse Suction to the carb not allowing fuel to flow, hence the reason it would run when you manually squeeze the bottle forcing fuel pressure into the carb. She would of started within 10 blades with proper fuel I'd say, great video tho!
My thoughts too!
That’s a Struck mini dozer!! I had one! They can pull like crazy but not so much on pushing! Fun little machine though!
Volkswagon motors are commonly used in light aircraft. they can be dependable if fully gone over. My neighbor built a plane and put a VW motor in it and flew it off the cow pasture field across the street from our suburban homes in Wichita. It worked he flew it around and brought it back and landed it. Homemade airplane he welded together in his basement. Experimental. Worked. this was early seventies when I was a child.
Would love to see you get it flying and take it up! Love the videos! My dad was a private pilot growing up so I have a lot of hours up with him lol. It takes me back instantly every flight cockpit video. He unfortunately passed several years ago so I greatly appreciate your videos! Keepem comin! 😊
My grandpa and I watch your videos a lot! And if you’re ever in SD that would be awesome to say hello to ya jimmy
Mini dozer, “can I get a … ‘clear track!’”
Jimmy, those whole ...let's say - fleet of crooked birds , reminds me just two worlds: Dastardly & Muttley
Cool on How You changed the Lyrics from Gilligan's Island. IT RUNS!! Wow!
Mini Dozer would make a great tow tug. I agree with it being another start up video. P.S. love the WW1 clone. Wish I had a place to put it...🤓
More mini-dozer content!
what is its real name even?
@Typical Sharky
I believe that it is manufactured by Struck.
❤ I love Jimmy's videos and I really dig his humor. He always entertaining and fun to watch, great stories and interesting aviation content! I'm subscribed and I'm big follower of Jimmy's and his latest videos with Jessy are amazing!! Thank you so much Jimmy and Jessy for providing me with so much fun watching your show's.❤❤❤❤❤❤
Love the Airspeed tops out at "80".....VNE = 81
Can we talk about the fantastic voice over that sounded very heart warming at the end?
Keep up the good work Jimmy where is your son There is no better history than right there
Most kids are in school around this time of year.
Absolutely love the sound of that engine
I am impressed with you guys! Love it that you got the old looking plane to run.
Heroic. The VW engine in it is hilarious! Be fun to taxi around if the rudder works, and you have a working kill switch :).
So cool. Some day I’ll find my own dusty old biplane. I’ll live vicariously through yours.
The answer to that question is, 'It's because they're much simpler and they don't as many components as a newer aircraft.' This means that there's less to go wrong. Jimmy, I watch other people's UA-cam videos. Most of them clean out the carburetors of the engines they're on. So many of them are quite dirty, with their passages clogged with dried fuel. A few of them put them in parts washers to rid them of that dried fuel. Sleeper Dude has one of those cleaners. I didn't see you once you cleaned a single carburetor. I believe that those difficult to start engines would start sooner in the event you clean those carburetors instead of needing to spin a prop at the front of those aircrafts. You know how sore your arm will be the morning after you spun them a few hundred times, as you and Jesse did with that Volkswagen engine in that replica.
I always want to clean the carbs and pump up some oil pressure before running one. That carb cleaning woulda saved you about eleventy thirteen prop spins on that one. That's what the ends of guitar/mandolin strings that you cut off after restringing them are for. Got some in my tool box from an old 12 string I got at a pawn shop in the mid 80s.
I keep thinking I need to hitch up my 30' flatbed trailer and come down there and start taking the wings off and loading them up to haul to Florida for you. That old SE5 would fit in real well here on our field T7SO. Grass strip 25 miles north of Fort Worth..... My friend and neighbor restores old airplanes for a living, and I built this trailer to haul his airplane finds here on it. We've got warbirds, biplanes and a bunch of those guys who pretend they are in ALaska that do all that STOL stuff! up here on the field.
Don’t think, ACT!
Yay, thanks for another awesome video Jimmy.
Why is it that every video I see on restarting old engines, nobody thinks to change the oil and filter as a first step? At least these guys didn't use the 12 year old gas. Bill
Thanks. Always a pleasure..
Love the work....
Put a hole/vent in the fuel bottle...
solved many mystery file issues..
I'm down to see the Struck Mini Dozer run. Had one years ago and it was handy.
❤❤❤those vintage double decker aircrafts are nice, good find there Jimmy!😊❤
Awesome. A British biplane? I love your videos man.
Britain built more Biplanes that most other countries... Sopwith Camel and SE5a being the most famous :)
It’s a kit aircraft, built in Texas.
With a German engine
Where did you find Jesse?? He seems like such a cool guy!
A garage sale???
Stunning content. As a content creator who happens to fly, I’ve always tried to be different by being genuine. So many of your comments ring true, from the keyboard warriors, who forget the video was edited, to the regulators in my case, the CAA, who always seem to be casting their beady eyes over everything we do. (it is nice to know that they’re watching). And nice to know that we have similar thoughts - keep it up!!!
love to see a restore with the fabric...its not something common and todays glue etc would be interesting to see...Then if it flies ... the value might go up... wcpgw...?
The value would go up! Heck, could probably recoup 30% of the cost of materials to recover the plane. Labor would have to be free.
If the fabric is still within strength limits why waste money recovering it? The fabric appears to have no UV barrier so it needs to be stored out of the sun, which it was but otherwise, polyester fabric has a very long lifespan.
My eldest brother, who is now deceased, would have loved this. He was a private pilot and a bit of a daredevil, so he would have patched up the wing and tried to fly this oldie.
Awesome plane there Jimmy. Stay safe my friend.
Nothing better than getting something running that's been sitting
If you ever need a hand around the Daytona area give me a ring.
Hey Jimmy if you are interested I have friend who has a Bowers Flybaby Biplane done up a WW1 German fighter to complement you WW1 AC that he would be willing to sell over near Marshall, Tx. It is powered by a real aircraft engine, a Lycoming 125 hp engine. He also has a Smith Mini Biplane that needs a lot of love too.
a biplane Flybaby resembles a S.E5. better than some of the replicas because the bi plane version has sweep in both the top and bottom wings like a S.E.5.
That narrating at the end kills me every time! LOL
Yeh idle circuit was probably clogged, thanks for vid!
Great video mate, it sounds great!!!
I've been looking for one of those dozers for years lol, drop it off in the panhandle with a chute😊
Why are you NOT thee #1🥇🏆 aviation channel on UA-cam™️ Jimmy!??🤷🏻♂️…You should be breaking the internet or at the very least,UA-cam with your videos!! OMG I thought my bladder was gonna have a catastrophic failure or choke to death when you said,”This is TOTALLY safe”….LOLOLOLOL🤣🤣🤣…..Keep the AWESOME content coming and please keep us posted on the Elvis Memorabilia! Not sure if your going to be accepting preorders but if you do,please mark me down for a piece of ELVIS(and Jimmy) history!! Obviously,the sky is NOT your limit Jimmy!!🫶🙏✌️😎
Thanks so much! Elvis memorabilia update coming next Friday :)
The engine block manifold is almost the entire radius of the propeller itself, I’m genuinely amazed this thing flew at all
Would love to buy one of your projects......love the WW1 SE5
Jimmy, you two Dudes need some serious "Mental" evaluation! But, ya al' have "Gitter Dun" tenacity! Thanks, Enjoy all your videos, keep em' comin'! Be safe!
I'm enjoying every minute of this video. Good luck with the rest of them.
Love that the old replica plane did get fired up!
I LOVE that mini 28:01 SE5. I’m partial to WW1 aircraft styles.
that thing is like flying in a 55 gallon drum.....or maybe one of those kiddy trains at the pumpkin patch someone strapped an engine and wings too
What could possibly go wrong 🤷♂ You wont find me flying in it, but once its been sorted its going to make someone a nice flying machine 👍👍
I have slowly sold off my new vehicles to restore and modernize my my old classics. I went through a rough mountain winter, and the older trucks I built up were the safest and most reliable. My wife has gotten to where,if the weather is bad, she will not go out in the newer tundra, it is scary to drive compared to my older 70 to 80s stuff. Between the traction control and antilock brakes, it won't stop, go, or turn without arguing with the driver in snowy mountain.
That Airpllane was an iffy home-built when it was new.. And I know from seeing them at Sun & fun, you can buy spectacular home-build's for the cost of the engine and prop, the airplane is free..
Is that a Glastar kit in the background? That would be worth building!
A Martin Hollman designed Stallion. Kinda like a Cessna 210 with its cantilever wing and Retractable Gear
Sweet it runs, Jesse mustn't have been throwing prop fast enough...lol
Jesse seems to be ready to run JIMMY'S NUT HOUSE. HE has his own personality and works his own magic to get some of the "old gem" Texas Brush hopper P.O.S. PLANES
Running àgain. Trump would be proud
Great, awesome job and video. Keep on keeping on top of the clouds 💪
Right on Jimmy!
The reason they run longer and easier start is because there is less electronics. And how well it was maintained new or old. But you already knew that love the show keep up the good work guys. And I agree the mini dozer was the coolest thing there.
huh? How do electronics affect the engine?
@@buckmurdock2500 huh ? 😂 Shows what you know .
Can’t wait for the next one!
I friggin' Love this. Cheers Jimmy's world. Very much appreciate it.
We have a saying in Australia. Jimmy got it going, but Jesse loosened her up for him.
Bro I love you your so good at videos
Sweet Jimmy's paying well...boys wearing snap on gloves!!! go !
Hopefully someday I'll be saving planes and flying just like Jimmy
What a classic...very interesting to say the least...the stall dozer is awesome
The mini dozer is a 1969 Struck MD-40 dozer. That thing is awesome!
Have you come up what a small piece of elvis jetwill cost? Like post card size. Take the wing fuel tanks and make the fenders for the rear wheels. Use part of the fuel tanks for to store fuel
Looks like a Struck Corp dozer. They were in the back of every popular mechanics magazine in the 70s.
I enjoy all your videos Jimmy but I have to say, these barn find type first start ones are my favorite!
That's an awesome little kit plane.
Being a vw restoration guy this would be a dream come true so cool
Great job on getting it running.
Hello from Minnesota! Whooohooo! She runs!
Y’all need to get it back in the air !!! Would be so cool to watch !!
You sir, are seriously qwazy! Thank you! Great video.
Dude my pre WW2 Ford 8N tractor has that same Marvel-Shebler carburetor as your plane !
The engine sounds pretty good!
Love that old plane. I’m betting a good carb cleaning and fresh fuel and shed run good. Definitely like to have it
The slime bottles are a genius idea 💡
Just a little heads-up, Jimmy: the valve tappets on aircooled Volkswagen engines have to be periodically adjusted.
If you use some starter fluid is would lite up real quick and draw fuel into the engine in a hurry but knowing you guys 25-30 pulls. VW engines are really reliable so maybe 10 for germany engineering. Your fuel tank doesn't have a vent line on it so might create a suction and keep fuel from entering engine too.
He was using ether spraying it directly into the intake.
