Greetings, WOW, congratulations on a crf300 rally who would know these little motorcycles can do.🇺🇲🍾🎉🇺🇲 Keep producing more videos about the CRF adventures another iron butt challenge perhaps. Did iron butt association accepted your records and what was in your package. Would you make a short video showing us your prizes from the Iron Butt Association. Thank you so much, I am a senior citizen and I always want to be part of this challenge. I have been riding motorcycles for 60 years.

BEST WAY TO START IT IS REMOVE AIR FILTER AND TORCH INTAKE A LITTLE BIT WITH HEAT or instal a glow plug

DID YOU PUT NEW PISTON ?

Damn! You really have an iron butt! Amazing .......

Man! I'm sure glad I'm not depending on a Chinese diesel engine to stay warm this winter! I own two of these little motors (purchased when they were "6 h.p." engines...lol... Guess I'll just leave the ether at the auto-parts store.... Thanks, I learned from your discussion! btw a gasoline-soaked rag over the intake works just as good and can be removed instantly....I know that's "country" but hey!! (or is that "hay" ? ....) You got the up-thumb again, thanks.

Buy an electric start kit

How many hours do you have on the new engine so far?

All this time watching I thought it was a generator 🤦‍♂️

wonder how a heat gun would do, with plastic intakes, if you came up with a mount to hold it to the intake while you crank

How is it holding up?

I have seen videos of some farmers in northern Russia (very cold) get diesel tractors going by positioning a wadded up rag soaked with diesel above the intake. They lit the rag on fire and cranked the engine. Sucks the flame and heat down in there and it starts right up.

I really like those Chinese diesel - after hurricanes, tropical storms or ice or snow storms my power is often knocked out - I have one of those on a car alternator that maintains some battery's that a inverter is connected to to run every thing in the house - Running it at 1800 RPMs around the clock for days it's perfect - I have the regular inverter gas gens also - But that diesel burns far less fuel - just shut it down every other day to check the oil - I can let it run off a barrel of fuel for a long long time -

When its cold like that there is no need for a air filter - i had worked in oul fields were it was very cold - We never used air filters in equipment like snow blowers , or generators during winter - You can just make a down draft breather out of a 90 degree elbow brazed to a plate of steel - you might add a large hole screen - A diesel will not start when its below 32°F - if ots cranked as with a electric starter - compressing the air will warm it up and it will eventualy start - Heating the head with a torch or the air intake is the best way - We used heat guns run off generators or inverters also in cold regions to preheat intake air for cold starts -

Be nice to have a heated shed to put your splitter in when it's cold so it'll start in the morning

Get a cheap cordless heat gun at harbor freight. No need to take it apart. Just be smart about it cause you can burn filter. Heat below filter in pipe section. Faster and easier. Your welcome. Mine starts -20 put a splash of howes anti gel with each fill also.

In my opinion, it's ridiculous to keep standard tire pressures on, off road or fire roads.. The bike moves around too much.. especially for the weekend warrior 💪

Brothers daryl! Fml!

China make JUNK!

No entiendo muy bien el inglés. Pero si cometió un error, esa es la forma de aprender, se aprende de los errores y de los fracasos, adelante

Это лучшее решение вы молодец.

Remember. It's only 3 hp.

WHT are you using a log splitter. Should have already split the wood.

I bought one of those engines too. I never checked one bolt been running it for about six months now haven’t had a problem with it.

Great video, but should be called "Don't lower your bike pressure less than 15psi." I myself like running my pressure at around 22. For the dirt. On the road, it is at 33. So, yes, one still has to lower air pressure for the dirt.

I found your Channel in regards to the China diesel engine you put on a log splitter. I got the same China motor and I am looking to put it on a huskee 20t splitter from tractor supply. I also have a 21 Honda rally. I run the Dunlop d606 rear and mt21 pirelli front, great mostly off road riding tire combo for the California desert and mountains where I live 😊

Trailer sticker has the word "Maintenance" spelled incorrectly (maintanence is incorrect)

You should have called this video "Buy new tires instead of lowering pressure" cause the stock IRC tires need to be lowered to 17psi for offroad in NJ Pine Barrens and most of the east coast (not just Florida) cause like you mentioned sand. Now granted my skills have waned a bit but 22psi on my 2023 Rally is for highway use only, less I want to show off how bad I've gotten. I was gonna ask about the mt21/d606 combo but it sounds like your terrain couldn't be more different than mine. I might as well live in Florida terrain wise it's identical.

I bought 2 tanks a few years ago and one of my tanks leaks pretty substantially now. Can you still say you haven't had any leaks?

Yeah , twenty eleven four fifty has that same issue

I own a small Chinese diesel generator. I put it in a small shed made of concrete blocks for silencing. Starting the thing is not a problem at all even after a very long time . I put some lube oil on the cylinder and start it using the decompression device. It never let me down, but it smokes in the very beginning, later it's running smoke-free and smooth. Hurray for small chinese diesels and generators. Some people believe chinese products are crap... They are not!! You pay what you get

Does this booklet also contain the valve lash clearance? I really need it for the service on my engine, I can't find any information or tips about it anywhere on the internet. Thank you in advance.

Did you tear this down without a manual ?

Thank you very much for your video series, it's invaluable content! You were the only one who I could find doing it, but not only that: you teached very well! Thank you!

Thanks, Travis I eenjoyed the vido!

👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

Nice! Informative and well "filmed". Maybe in the future you can discuss the bike setup layout your gear on a tarp.

Did you find a replacement piston or is this a different engine?

have you thought about converting to an electric start

Im really surprised by the quality of the parts. Considering this engine only costs 200 bucks... This is pretty good, I have to say. Ive got one of these engines myself, using it in a low rpm generator setup, considering that I only run it at lower RPMs (below 2000), I think it will last just as long as any other engine would!

Nice hat thank you for your service. Good BIW ship.

I just got one of these about 2 weeks ago from Amazon. I went thru the first time start up and it went well. It started 3 times in a 2 hour time frame. A week later I tried to start it and it would not start. In fact diesel fuel started to spit out thru the air filter. What would cause this? I messaged the seller and he suggested I clear out the air filter and fuel line with carb cleaner to dry it out and start it again. Same thing happened, fuel spitting out thru the air intake. Second message from the seller was to take it for repair. They would pay up to $30. Any ideas? It's still under the 30 day return policy

Made from Chinese monkey metal

So do you order your parts from wsepo? If so who did you talk to and how was the experience? I’m trying to decide on ordering the new model of that engine

Found the Problem! It says it right on the side….. “ made in China”

wd40 has worked great . my original 196 must be close to 100 hours

Very interesting how well the hot water worked. Thanks for sharing.

I am looking for the Torque Specs for the Connecting Rod, FlyWheel, and Head Bolts. Would you happen to know them or point me somewhere to find them. THANK YOU!

I appreciate people who aren't the least bit bashful about accepting responsibility when stuff happen. I get tired of people who's first reaction is to start blaming others. You are a good guy in my book. Best wishes, good luck and thanks for the video !!!

I agree that the starting fluid was the final straw but the discoloration suggests a casting flaw . If it was a one time start on starting fluid I don't believe you'd get discoloration , that's usually from previous run time . If it was fresh carbon the starting fluid would wash it out and be shiny . Ive cast Aluminum before and it can be hard to find flaws until machining and when you have a machine pumping them out by the thousands they only inspect maybe one in a hundred .

I put one on a generator, mine started right up without any hesitation at all in -10°C! I was seriously impressed! I didn't do any preheating or anything at all, just a normal start!
