If the GonePoo overheated, consider removing the battery from the unit, putting a dummy battery (fleabay, the usual places) and wire the dummy battery's wire to a hand holder with an integrated battery.
thanks for the vids as allways! i dunno about the scruffy look for you ,are ya gonna commit to a full snack saver and chin warmer? as the owner of a full blown soup strainer i feel the need to make you aware you work with fire and rotating mechanical devices both of which do not play well with longer facial hair.
@@aserta I've never dealt with a GoPOS myself, but when I use my phone to watch a livestream, I always plug it into the charger, and it stays at 100% and doesn't heat up - it will even charge it up fully if I start with a lower charge. I hate it when a streamer's phone or camera dies before their stream is supposed to be over. If GoPOS's have a jack for an external power source, I'd try using that.
@@johnphillips4342 30 years for my pop in November. Not a day goes by I don't think about him. Usually with a smile. He was a funny guy and a hard worker.
@1967250s @johnphilips4342 @kd5byb @JAF-pd9mw, and to all of you that have lost your Dad or someone close to you that you loved and admired, my heart goes out to you. My condolences to all of you and may you find some comfort in remembering all of the good times you had. Peace and blessings to you all. 🙏🏼
This felt like and old skool Wes video, but with the added twist of having your dad around. I love the videos where you bring forgotten relics back to life.
I love your channel, love seeing your dad in your videos, you're a lucky guy to have a dad like him. Good luck on bringing that cute little tractor back from an early grave, it looks and sounds pretty solid.
Cherish these projects with your dad. I lost my dad to "the C19 word". I miss working on the farm with him... I never realized how much it meant to me at the time. I still have a bunch of his "projects" to work on but it's not the same without him.
Same here he was a master mason and damn good mechanic and I worked with him all of our years together. Most patient and educated person I knew. Now I fill the void by teaching my kids as best as I can and I'm glad he got to meet them both.
@@adamdnewmanMe too brother. We simply don't have enough time with them. And my dumb-ass didn't realize how precious every moment was with my dad until it was too late.
This type of video is what originally brought me to your channel! I still watch and enjoy your every day mechanic videos, but I do love the "Will it Run" style installments. Thanks Wes!
I ran one of those when I worked on a sod farm. Pulled a roller that would be used right before we cut it. Good little tractor, those floatation tires have very little traction. Thank you Wes.
My grandfather was a MF mechanic in the 60’s and 70’s. I have a bunch of his old tools from back then. He enjoyed working on the old square bailers the most. Thank you so much for bringing the warm memories of him back for me.
Oh yeah, that will be a great running little tractor with a little bit of clean up & clean out. Love seeing the distinguished gentleman (pops) working with Wes. Thank you sir.
This was a wonderful video. For those of us who grew up working on cars and projects with our Dad, this brings back so many memories. I could watch videos of you and your Dad working on projects for hours. Thank you for this special treat.
I always enjoy your videos and especially with your Dad. I also like the humorous spots that you are adding. I laughed right at the beginning when you stood there looking at the can of starting fluid but then took all you had on the shelf. Nice touch. May God bless you and yours.
Definitely one of the funnest episodes of Watch Wes Work. As well as the longest one with his dad on camera. Definitely liked watching them working together and the commentary of the off camera guy added. Sure would love to see his Dad bring it to Wes's shop to work together getting it running real good and reliable.
As a MF 135 owner with the same AD3.152 engine, they're a total PITA to bleed. Total nightmare, it's a good hour's worth of work sometimes. Never let it run out of diesel.
Cherish the time spent with your dad, even if it's just chatting while working on a project. Time well spent and sorely missed later in life. Great content as usual. Thanks for all that you do.
I think the part that surprised me the most was seeing the powerstoke for the first time in ages. You weren’t sure it would last another winter, but she’s still going strong apparently. Love watching the videos where you are problem solving on some relic - that moment where you’re not sure it’s history and you get to know the project always makes the video worthwhile.
Wess brings back lots of memories. Me and two older friends use save old tractors and equipment all the time years ago. One passed away and I moved . Appreciate the memories.
Father, Son working together is nothing better than that. Whether it is good or bad, family #1, thank you for another great video sir. Always looking forward to seeing them.
its great you can still work with your dad.i used to work with mine alot.i still miss him, but he's at a much better place since he passed away.enjoy his company wes, while you still can.the memories will last your lifetime.
Hi Wes, iit is really nice to see you and your dad working on this project- super cool. I bet you guys have some great stories. Loved the opening vibe as well.
Fantastic video Wes and your dad is cool. I nearly fell of my chair laughing when he gave that fuel jug mouth to mouth but hey, it worked. That’s an awesome little tractor too. Cheers mate, Stuart 🇦🇺
I love them old Massey Ferguson tractors!! The day I brought my MF 40 industrial loader home it had no brakes and when I unloaded it off the trailer the steering wheel came off in my hand!! Got her fixed up now and she does her job!! Good luck with your project!
You will note here the father-son enablement dynamic when purchasing old machinery. This is why addiction to buying money pits (old cars, motorcycle, tractors etc.) runs in families. Younger men will inevitably end up inheriting their father's projects leaving them the proud owners of rusting family heirlooms. "Dis was your grandfather's tractor," he'll one day say to a child completely bemused by an archaic bit of rusty machinery "never ran quite right." 😊
It's nice to be able to show people the, We can go around that with this and end up driving it to the trailer. Many smiles from all your fans. We know your Dad is proud of you! Thanks Wes.
Hey Wes - experience an knowledge gets them running every time !! - You are so lucky to have your dad with you and you son is fortunate that he has his grand dad - enjoy every moment and cherish every memory !!
Wes, solid revival and it looks viable with effort to reach full function! It's fun to watch you guys do the work without any fuss and bother! No explanation needed! Great video!
Love your channel Wes. Your dad is one cool dude. You make a great pair working on things. You are a lucky man to still have him ! Just joined your patreon group. Keep up the good work bud
Spending time with your dad is golden time i hope he will be with you for a long time looks like he has a lot to play with and he knows what he doing comes across as a nice man good to see
seems like a win. 3 or 4 good tires, 66% cylinder operation, some brakes, leaking hydraulics, finicky fuel system, and overall it runs. what's not to like - thanks Wes
Great video Wes! My father and I used to do the very same thing... Not just tractors but anything that burned fuel. Dump trucks, boats, and equipment mostly. You have a pretty good channel going on and I'm enjoying it. Keep it up and I will be waiting for the next one!
We still have and use one of these to mow our farmhouse lawn-they’re really nice in open areas. Love the recovery operation and that no fluids were left behind 🤣
Really enjoyed this video with your father. Occasionally my father and I were able to work together like that, depending on his mood. If he was upset, part of my job was watching for flying tools. Farming is stressful at times and he mellowed out in his older age. Looks like a decent little tractor.
I can tell you, working with either of my adult sons is so easy because they know exactly what is going on and we have no need to explain anything to each other. It is like they know what to do with any situation we work on. So I totally understand when you say no need for explanation between each other to accomplain the job... Thumbs Up!
Hi Wes was laughing the minute this started the music was brilliant hahaha your dad is a great man nothing fazes him he just gets on with it now I know where you get it from great moments to treasure and great video mate bringing these machines back to life take care and have a great week all the best to you the family and max 🔧🔧🔧👍👌❤️🚜🚜😀
personally I understood what was going on in your video, it's fun to watch you and your father work together, it always reminds me of me and my father. go on adventures and rescue an old car or tractor. good times
This brings back memories of the Ford 231 tractor I used to mow grass for the city with. Same size unit with skinny duall turf tires. So much fun to drive!! Thanks for all the great content!!
It was fun to watch this. It was these types of videos that originally brought me to the channel. It's really great to see you working with your dad too.
Best. Video. Ever. Listening to you and your dad was priceless. I especially enjoyed the comment about there being no videos when he was young - and it was a good thing. 😀😀👍

Nice video... I laughed when you chose 4 cans of starting fluid. Also, I laughed when I saw the bungee cord holding your license plate. No key, improvise. Fuel not flowing, adapt. Power steeing not working, overcome. Entertaining, as always!!!
Watching you and your dad reminds me of my times with mine. He went home to be with the Lord in 2015, and I miss him everyday. We had great fun repairing junk he would bring home. I still have a TD14A crawler he brought home, and looking forward to getting it working again.
Wes , glad you filmed this. Cool to see you and dad troubleshooting on this ole girl. I needed the laughs that came with this. Thanks for that. It’s like you and pops knows what each other is thinking. I bet editing this was nuts. Thanks Wes. See ya
Wes, your videos are always interesting. Having some experience in fixing engines, I can follow what you are doing. Neat to see the two of you working together, my Dad taught me what I know about engines as a kid at home. Spent my career as a teacher, kept my vehicles running, keep up the good work.

I ran one of those when I worked on a sod farm. Pulled a roller that would be used right before we cut it. Good little tractor, those floatation tires have very little traction. Thank you Wes.
Maybe it would be accurate to say they have “gentle” traction, so as to not chew up the grass too much.😄
My grandfather was a MF mechanic in the 60’s and 70’s. I have a bunch of his old tools from back then. He enjoyed working on the old square bailers the most.

Oh man. We have a good time.
I enjoy watching Wes work - dad's are the best. I've never met a millennial that would give Mouth to mouth to a tractor fuel tank
Definitely one of the funnest episodes of Watch Wes Work.
As well as the longest one with his dad on camera.
Definitely liked watching them working together and the commentary of the off camera guy added.
Sure would love to see his Dad bring it to Wes's shop to work together getting it running real good and reliable.
It's a real pleasure to watch you and your dad working in unison, with mutual respect and cordiality!
What a team!
Working your Dad and you together brings amazing memories!! Thanks for sharing
Back in the early 90’s, our high school had one of those with a huge reel mower behind it. They prepped the football field with it. Great video Wes!
Beginning of video was pretty funny. What is amazing is the depth of knowledge displayed here and these guys don't even think much about it.
That was a hoot.
My Dad wasn't mechanically inclined but he helped me put an eng in my car one time. That's one of the best memories I have of him.
Nice To See You Help Your Dad Wes I Miss Mine 46 Years Ago Keep Up The Great Work

Those 2 letters are appropriate .
Samuel L Jackson would definitely own one .
Cherish the time spent with your dad, even if it's just chatting while working on a project. Time well spent and sorely missed later in life. Great content as usual. Thanks for all that you do.
Wes, we're lucky to watch you and Dad do this all together. Thank you for sharing the blessings and love 🙏🏾
One of the few channels where I never skip through, I always watch the whole thing.
Heh. I try to be efficient.
Thanks for another great video Wes🐾🍺 Cool to see you and your dad working together.
The extra "b-roll", music, different angles, extra editing, etc. are a great addition to your content. Keep it up.
It's a cute little beastie! Nice recovery gents! Wes awesome to see your dad, and his friends; loved the old stories!
The dynamic dueo.none better!

Hi Wes, iit is really nice to see you and your dad working on this project- super cool. I bet you guys have some great stories. Loved the opening vibe as well.

Just the greatest channel 😊♥️
This was a great video. The editing, music, humor and the little communication. Funny really. Your Dad is pure Americana.
Outdoor abandoned yellow equipment? Starting fluid? I thought this was diesel creek
To new and shiny for Diesel Creek . He only likes it a slight hint of paint on his finds , which are usually so old the Smithsonian won't take em .
This brings back memories of the Ford 231 tractor I used to mow grass for the city with. Same size unit with skinny duall turf tires. So much fun to drive!!
Thanks for all the great content!!
Son, someday this will be all yours. Dad
I always get a kick out of your communication skills shared with your Dad. 👍
Copious amounts of starting fluid and a battery pack-it’s going to be a good day!
These are the cooler videos Wes, wrenching with the wiser and their stories is always fun.
A comment for the algorithm!
I love seeing you working with your Dad. Enjoy all time you can.
In Australia they have a Ether called start you bastard
Great seeing you and your dad. Nice little tractor. Keep sharing all your videos. Thanks for the adventure.

Rescuing old broken tractors is the best part of life, hope to see more on this project in the future!
Nice video... I laughed when you chose 4 cans of starting fluid. Also, I laughed when I saw the bungee cord holding your license plate. No key, improvise. Fuel not flowing, adapt. Power steeing not working, overcome. Entertaining, as always!!!
I love these videos with your dad going to start old stuff. Reminds me of childhood
It so nice to see you and your dad working together. Remind me of working with my dad. But unfortunately lost him in 2005. Keep up the good work 👍
Watching you and your dad reminds me of my times with mine. He went home to be with the Lord in 2015, and I miss him everyday. We had great fun repairing junk he would bring home. I still have a TD14A crawler he brought home, and looking forward to getting it working again.
My dad had a TD9 when I was a kid. I have bitter memories of putting the track back on that POS.
Love everything about that model of tractor, the tires, the stance, the ROPS, really looks like an old earthmover!
What's not difficult to follow is the connection you have....great to watch.
