Part of the charm of your channel Matt is the sheer joy that you express when a repair works, and most often they do. Great video and result 👍🏻🏴
-
Absolutely worth the investment. The cost of equipment right now is ridiculous.
-
You have to love old iron simplicity at its finest
-
I am by no means any type of equipment operator. But I really enjoy your videos. Always something different. From the church building, to your property. Looking forward to more!

NAPA still sells that pump you took off of there. I use 'em for gas on the Loadstars because you can't exactly get the mechanical for the 478 engine but I've also used them for diesel lift pumps and in one case water for a radiator mister on an old 2 stroke tour bus in the desert. They make about 4-7 psi, and come in 12V (Part #: DFP FE0539) and 24V (Part #: DFP FE0553). For some reason the system lists it as an in-tank pump (?). They've also got a 6V unit.

I think you use this loader a great deal and it has been useful. So worth some TLC!

Enjoy your videos. I'm retired now was an operator, mechanic, truck driver for jobs so relate to your content and remember many of the models of equipment you drag home. Just a few pieces of equipment around my 21:47 21:47 home place so I'm jealous of your collection. I think it's great and find humor in the fact you live so close to the Auction yard. Keep up the good content

Glad to see Alice doing better! She may not run like a Swiss watch but she gets the job done. 👍🏻❄️
-
Looking forward to seeing Allis getting a bit of love, she deserves it. She found the right home. Another great video Matt, keep'em coming 👍
-
I hope you’re planning on sending the injector pump out for a rebuild. That would complete the fuel system makeover. 👍

Hi Matt! My six-year-old grandson Lenny commented cooly: "There is nothin' Matt can not repair!" Your joyous shout "Yeah" after the engine started to run... was repeated the world over 41 Thousand times!!! Congrats from Germany!

Every piece of equiptment one gets always raises the question: How did I get by without? Always a treat to find a new up load from you, Mat.

The starter will give you trouble soon. You could use a small sawmill. Also, investigate if there is enough head in the creek, so you could make some kind of hydropower. You need 5m.

Near where i used to work was an asphalt plant which was a beehive from April to Nov. One of the paving companies was running several IH and Jimmy ten wheel dump trucks from the 60s and 70s. Many trucks came and went but the ones that were 6 71 or 8v71 powered stood out. The ones without turbos were the very sound of Manhood. Drivers were typically wearing hearing protectors in the cabs. Its rare to hear any old Detroits today. Pity.

Matt I love your videos. You're down to earth, no advertising or sponsorship crap. Just good old machinery and good videos. Love it. Keep it up
-
Probably a good idea to have the injection pump gone through when you do the injectors. Expensive, but usually worth it .
-
You should consider changing all the fuel lines. Old lines like that may feel stiff and hard but will collapse internally and over work your components. They can also send trash through the system from internal deterioration.

Hey matt, just wanted to say thank you for the content.. you’ve inspired me to do more stuff around my property and I’ve been a mechanic my whole life and you’ve opened up my horizons to equipment and my now new love for it so I’ve been piecing together some new toys to my fleet as well.. just a thought as I watch the video my friend.
-
Your videos are amazing Matt all this old equipment getting brought back to life must make you feel good
-
As always it’s a pleasure to see Matt fix another machine :-) Looking forward to see the shop build!
