Repairing Old Carnival Trailer Headed For Panama (What Did I Get Myself Into?)
Have you ever been to the carnival and had a ride on the Sea Dragon? Well I don't have to go to the carnival - I got one right in my yard. This Sea Dragon was sold to someone in Panama and now has to make the trip to port to get to its new home. Unfortunately, this really old trailer has sat for almost a decade and it needs alot of repairs to be road worthy. I end up being the man for the job. The worst part about this job is that it has the old style wheels. Almost everyone over the age of 50 I've talked to has a story about someone getting killed or severely hurt by these wheels. I don't want to want to be another story, and honestly I don't even want to mess with them. But to change th...

Bought A Broke Down Scag Mower To Cut My 15 Acres...Now I Gotta Fix It!
Просмотров 144 тыс.Месяц назад
My old Kubota mower blew up. So I had to find a new mower to cut my 15 acres. Mower prices have gone up so much! I decided to buy a used Scag Turf Tiger. But the mower is broke down and I need to fix it. In this video I figure out if the problem is the wheel pump, the wheel motor, or something else. In the end, we succeed and the mower is getting the job done.
Big Cam Cummins Overheating! Fan Won't Come On! Let's Look For An Easy Fix
Просмотров 8924 месяца назад
My new engine is overheating and the engine fan doesn't come on to cool it down. So on this video we are going to make the necessary repairs to get it back in tip-top shape. We also talk about the fan clutch system and some typical things that go wrong with them. A common problem (the one I'm facing) is a thermal fan switch failure. Fortunately, these are only $55 and easy to replace. But you m...
Is It Really That Hard To Polish a Tank??? Amateur Gives It a TRY!
Просмотров 1,6 тыс.6 месяцев назад
On this video, I polish a 20 year old Freightliner fuel tank. This tank is filthy, scratched, and scuffed. It's as nasty as you'll find, but still in good enough shape to be used on a truck. I'm not a professional. No, no, no. However, I have watched a few polishing tutorials. I'll be honest, the professionals make it look pretty easy. So I want to give polishing a try on a big fuel tank. And I...

This is the third time I have had the steer hubs off this truck. They say third times a charm, so hopefully their right (whoever they is). Also, I prep the air leaf suspension for a three axle alignment. Had to change out the bushing housings - don't make my mistakes. Thanks for checking me out.

I wonder if aluminum oxide OR walnut shells would work for sand blasting. Beautiful job, love the attention to detail.
more mowing videos please!
Hope it lasts the valve block is probably chewed up too that is probably what chewed up the valve plate I left the comment before finishing video but the pump went bad again because there was other parts that needed replacement
You should’ve put $1000 into fencing and got yourself some sheep or goats. They’ll keep that past your mode right now.
Great video. My truck isn't quite the same, but i know what to look for now. Is this the temperature sensor that the ecm uses to determine engine temperature? (I dont think it is)
William please
Springs and balls. How the hell does it work ANYHOW??? $$$
I'm impressed with how shiny that thing got
I am too cheap and lazy for all of that. That is enough grass to feed a few goats or a couple head of Dexter Cattle (they miniature) and at the end of the day? Grass is taken care of and you get some good BBQ'ing in.
As high as you let that grass grow and with the acreage you have you should have called a local farmer and sold that grass to him for hay.
A couple of years ago I purchased a very otd Turf Tiger from a landscape company that had gone out of business. It has over 6000 hours on it. But the motor was replaced at around 3000 hours with a new Fuel Injected Kohler. It starts and runs great. I have issues that make operating it challenging. They are with the pumps. They pump fluid fine. It's the internal linkage is sloppy. So trying to maintain a line while mowing is difficult. One of these days I'lll see if I can fix it. But I'm only mowing about 1 of my 3 acres. This thing is built like a tank. It takes fine motor skills on the controls to keep it going where you want, but I have fun with it. I'm also not mowing blue grass. I have Prairie grass that is not watered.
We ran Scags when I worked for mowing company. Let me just I’m glad we had a full time mechanic. Machines were always down. They cut great
Here is what I did. Also not knowing much about pump/wheel motor operations. I removed the lines off the wheel motor to the pump. Put extra hose on the lines. Put one end of hose in clean diesel oil and the other end in a empty container. I then turn the wheel motor in the direction to suck diesel oil out of the clean bottle watched the empty bottle fill up with dirty fluid. This did two things. 1 it cleaned the wheel motor ( figure that is what took out yours) 2 it verified the wheel motor is still good. Love to have your pump so take apart to see how it failed after rebuild or because of rebuild. Great video thanks for the time to share it.
For those large fields like that personally I wouldn't use a zero turn. If you feel the need to mow it I'd get a 60ish hp tractor and an appropriately sized batwing mower. You'll be able to get about 15' a crack with a 60 hp tractor and a batwing mower.
i used to jump out of cabovers. i used to jump off of docks too. be careful.
I am a reformed jumper. I have started climbing down. Hard habit to break though.
Found your video on my feed. Loved it. I found it both very informative and cathartic at the same time. Your content and delivery is awesome. Thanks much
Awesome, thank you!
I have a Skag Z that I bought new 2 years ago. I added a grass catcher which had no motor of its' own but uses the mower blades to fill the bags. I find that this mower has more than enough power to fill the bags with no problem, actually better than my precious mower that had a separate motor for bagging. The bagger is fantastic for picking up dead leaves. I'm glad that it worked out for you.
I didn’t try the bagger. I really should have just to know how well it works. Sold it to a guy who had been looking for one. Thanks for the input. Really appreciated.
i do not see any point in mowing over about 2 acres...grow crops or let at grow naturally !
Always check the bypass first thing! Al these dual motor zero turns have bypasses so you can move them with out the engine on!
I purchased a Turf Tiger II a couple years back. Just an updated version of what you got. They are nice machines. SCAG says the color of their mowers is called Cats Eye Gold. Very fitting since they have the cat theme going on their higher end models. Oil changes are kinda annoying on mine. There is not much space to get a wrench to open the drain valve.
You should have talked with some of the farmers in your area, they would have cut and baled that field for you
I think you just saved me a great deal of pain.....I'm fixing the left side of my commercial exmark
I didn't understand why the rebuilt pump failed. "It just blew up with the new motor'? Did you ever find out why the pump gear was jammed/sticking?
I put the rebuild on with the old motor. These pumps are a little sensitive. I learned you shouldn’t even spin those wheels without pulling the pump relief valve. Some of the other internal parts start to get a little pricey so I just went with a new pump. I don’t know for sure why the motor did what it did. But it was definitely wedged hard.
Nice! How high can you set that mower to mow? I know most max our around 5-5.5 inches..
I can set it to 6 inches.
You got 15 acres why don't you , hey that land,, and that way you make money, you cut that grass cuz you want to cut it waste of motion
It’s industrial. So we keep it mowed. But I am going to investigate doing something like that.
That's why I laugh whenever I see "ran when parked" in an ad. They forgot to mention the three hurricanes and the 100 year flood it sat through
Ha. And I bought this from a guy I know. But he bought it off a driver he had working for him who needed cash. I’m thinking someone didn’t like someone along the way. Got it cheap enough though. So it’s all good at the end of the day.
crack head, motor pool mechanic, potato potato.😅
your think like a crackhead hat should be a hunter biden hat
Also works for HVAC. Tons of people's uncles or "some guy" fixed or installed it. Then they call you after weeks of no ac then takes you minutes to find the issues!!! Wow how much do you charge you ain't getting me my uncle or whoever can fix that alot cheaper.
Ha. I hadn’t thought about that. But yes exactly. I can only imagine what you run into with that.
All that metal that was coming off those bearing surfaces got pumped into your motor.
This technique works fantastic for newer vehicles
I don’t ever get the new stuff as it’s under warranty. But that does make sense from what I have seen under some hoods.
@@nedstephens the ground setups for things like eps make you wonder how people are still alive sometimes.
Good job!!!
Thanks a bunch.
doin some good ole meth-a-matics!
Hahah. Do what works. Really helps to approach it as though someone just went all kinds of crazy.
Unfortunately, there’s a lot of morons doing electrical work on cars and houses
Florida man if he was a technician
@@a_person_7477 Don't they have some kind of Florida man games? Now the crackhead games would be worth watching too. Get a group of "skilled" individuals set up some challenges and live stream it id watch
I was expecting you to find all the copper wiring cut out and stolen or something
Now I have seen that. Fast and efficient is the crackhead when removing wiring. At least the few I’ve seen in action.
You need a tractor with a bush hog .
Great save! With this throw away mentality so many people have...... I Love seeing things brought back to life! It's not quite the same, But I just saved $4000 dollars putting a new transmission in my Garden tractor and rebuilding the mower deck. Good to go for another 8 years.
Nice. Feels good too.
Those Turf Tigers are beasts but I've rarely seen them without one or both of those caster arms repaired or replaced.
Yeah they seem rather weak where they bolt up to the frame.
So why did you change the right side motor. I thought the left wheel was good? But now the Motor has been changed.
I probably got my left and rights confused. Sorry. Hahah.
@@nedstephens did you re watch it and see what im talking about. I have 2 scags and now i know how to tear down the pump. So thats still a bonus
@@aaronsmith2719yes I saw it. At least I didn’t call it driver side and passenger side.
@@nedstephens I would have said driver side by default. Lol!
I used a JD tractor & a 72" finishing Mower for a guy with 10 acres about 10 years looks good when ur done !
Agree. Does provide a nice finish.
Nice to see a YOUNG person with initiative and knowledge1 This is what the country used to be and NEEDS now. Not a population going around holding IPhones. Looks like there's hope for the future!!! God Bless you!!
Agreed but it's the older generation's duty to teach the younger generations. Years of parents using tech and beer to replace proper parenting.
get yourself a small Ford N Series tractor and a bush hog
Maybe I’ll find one at auction one day.
Let's see, next will be engine problems (most likely rings, valve train and head gasket), then will have spindle problems (can be rebuilt), deck cracks (depending on previous owner(s), control arm dampers, wheel bearings and eventually electrical problems. Ask me how I know...
Dear God, no!
The purpose of the separate hyd systems for each side is so if you have a failure, like you did, you don’t contaminate the whole hyd system. Hopefully you drained the oil out of that left side reservoir and replaced the left side filter or you may be doing this again. Just saying…
I did. Drained it. Did it a couple times on entire unit. And new filter. I should have mentioned it in the video.
Better off just to buy a new pump and wheel motor. From my experience rebuild kits dont last long if they work at all. Its usually wear from something that isnt able to be replaced. I would replace both, because debris goes throughout the entire sytem and ruins both.
You have a good point. It gets worn out the sum of all the parts also becomes about same as a new one.
Wow.. FANTASTIC BUILD What a beautiful outcome looks like you just drove it new off the lot. Next project - different cup holder solution so your travel mug can stop doing the hula... I can picture an abrupt move or jerk and thing goes flying
Yeah I don’t want to crack this windshield either. No fun changing it. Thanks a bunch.
A beaut.
If you know anyone who has a baler they will cut and bale that if you let them have the bales.
For someone who didn't know what they were doing -you did good! Great video.
Hey thanks a bunch. Still running good too.
