This video reminds me of an M1078 military truck I bought off a government auction. The vehicle only had minimal run time, yet the condition report on the vehicle said the engine had major problems and would not start. I took a chance and bid on it and won the auction. A few months later the vehicle was eventually delivered to me after completing a government background check. Stuck some new batteries in vehicle and it would not start, but it would turn over very nicely. I topped off the fuel tank, checked the oil, checked coolant and other fluids. Shot a few squires of starting fluid. It would catch, but nothing would run. I then loosened the fuel line connection to the injectors and fuel pump. After bleeding air from the system, then it fired up and it has been running ever since. All it would have taken is for a competent mechanic in the Army to troubleshoot to get it running. Instead, the government puts basically a new vehicle on the auction block and sells for substantially less than what it paid for the truck new. YOUR GOVERNMENT TAX DOLLARS BEING WISELY USED.
Thanks Kevin for retrieving us from that hole !! “Fire it up” says Kevin. Really a nice touch listening to Clint going through the diagnostics - you professionals make it look so easy. Thank, John
Ahh! When dad and grandpa would pull into the yard. I gave up on asking if it runs when the answer was always “we don’t know”! I had two standing instructions. 1. It leaves under its own power. 2. It looks pretty. Clear out bay 4. That’s where my pit was and let’s start there. Y’all bring back memories for me. Thanks and hi from Texas
What a pleasure it is to watch professionals at work to untangle a mess made by some folks that shouldn't be allowed to oil a bicycle chain. Hopefully they aren't allowed within 1000 yards of anything that flies. Another great video, and I can't wait for Part 2.
Good Video! I didn't get hurt when you dropped me! I think this dozer is one they used to teach their" Mechanics" how to sabotage a dozer, and keep it out of enemy hands!
I’m a heavy equipment mechanic in the Marine Corps. Y’all wouldn’t believe what some of these young guys do to this equipment. We go to a 2 month long military run “school” to “learn” how to work on most of our equipment, then we get pushed out to our respective units and are expected to know how to diagnose and repair millions of dollars worth of heavy equipment (cranes, dozers, telehandlers, wheel loaders, etc.) If you didn’t want this MOS and/or aren’t mechanically inclined and more than anything, don’t have a passion for working on equipment you’re set up for failure from the beginning. Hardly any oversight or guidance from your supervisors makes for a bad combination as well, especially when most of them don’t understand equipment either. Short story long, I love seeing what y’all do to these 850’s to get them running again after the Marines screwed it up! Keep it up y’all, God bless
Long or short keep them coming. It’s great to see how you bring old iron back to life. Keep on making them and we will keep watching them. Happy New Year C&C
as a former army support maintenance guy my guess is that something went wrong and the parts/money weren't available to fix it completely so it was dragged into the corner of the yard and parts/bolts were robbed and or in junction with new guys using it to train on so they didn't fuck up another one.
I love your commentary as you inspected this for the first time. You make us viewers feel like we are on the job with you, just one of the guys shooting the shit. I love it!
Kevin is not only funny, he is very competent. As I listened to the discussion during the rigging up of the crane and fork lift to unload the machine Kevin was right on in the way he 'directed traffic'. Can't wait for the next installment.
I love the "in op" videos the best. Clint knows his chit. Best channel on RUclips (sorry peg). I laughed my A off watching Kevin trying to get the camera that fell
This is really interesting. I would love to work on this one with you guys. Great to see the boss. I have no doubts you’ll get this running, because you have the skill set. This is why I enjoy your channel.
New Indiana fan from up in Lafayette here...I love your banter back and forth. While inheriting someone else's junk work is frustrating at times, it sure can make for a great laugh. I've been there many times as a field fire protection technician. Thanks for sharing the "fun" with us!
I really enjoy your trouble shooting knowledge. There have been a lot of skinned nuckles and grease stained palms to gain that experience. You keep recording and I will keep watching.
Clint I'm not sure how old you are, but your knowledge and understanding of your trade is far beyond your years. I think the training you are giving your son is worth more than any higher education. I hope he follows in your foot steps. I also admire your calm demeiner, It seems all involved enjoy working for you. Please say hi to Kevin. Wish your family and all involved the best.
I like these “start from scratch” situations. It’s awesome to watch how fast you guys can visually pick em apart and start to figure out what in the hell is goin on. I’m anxious to see what happens next. Thanks guys.
As someone who has live most of his life in that part of the world since 9/11. They found a problem that they could not fix in country and it sat in the yard and was used for spare parts until some captain didn't want it on his books anymore and it was shipped back. Could of sat for years. The fluids are mostly empty because the military requires it for shipping. It looks slapped together because it was never put back together, you would need a part and remove as much hardware as you need so you can remove that part. That includes bolts, lines, wiring, anything. Be happy It had the body panels.
Oh my god I just watched this video about this dozer. I am still crying. I'm laughing. This is the best video I have ever seen in my life. You guys are totally nuts and I love you. Keep up the good work. Absolutely perfect. There is no show on TV. As good as this. I promise you you should get an award for this. Have a great year guys. I'll keep watching
I was hoping it would just fire up, like Special K kept saying. You did hook the fuel, batteries, and several other things correctly. Next time, " Fire it up"!
I genuinely enjoy watching a professional do what they do in there given field and you do not disappoint, you constantly show your depth of knowledge every time one of your videos drop! Things as simple as you know where everything should go just by looking at it.
absolutely enjoy watching Kevin and Clint work together, and the rest. And i hope it is as much fun for yall as it seems to us. we enjoy watching you work on the broken down bulldozers and other equipment.But i want you to let Kevin paint that lifting crane because its a big part of your tools and all the rest of your tools are nice! so when you walk out the door you would see a nice crane that you use quite often . not complaining , you just keep making these videos so we can enjoy it with you! thanks
It is great to see you guys bringing another one back to life. Once they start robbing bolts, they don’t intend to ever have it running again. At least you probably got a good deal on it.
@@C_CEQUIPMENT well that’s unfortunate. Hopefully you will win big the next time. Really enjoy watching you and Kevin work. You guys can turn a questionable heap of parts into a solid piece of equipment.
You two are a riot to watch. Almost wish I'd waited til Saturday morning to watch this video! I know a tractor like this; in this condition, turns out worrisome for you as a business man Mr. Clint but it sure makes for good video watchin!
Love your channel and content. If anyone can get this beast to run it is the crew from C&C. Good luck, I think you are going to need alot of it on this dozer.
I remember my first job in the military was estimating for the rebar in a large building we would be building in Okinawa, Japan. I had no oversite from my superiors. you can imagine what we ended up with. I can assure you i did learn how to estimate for a large construction project from that experience.
I got a good look at 3 of those sausage fingers as Kevin was reaching for the fallen gopro. It reminded me of a 3 toed sloth reaching for a limb to swing on.
Looks like you have purchased a real dog this time……. I bet it will be awesome once you have finished… Lots of very funny moments…. keep the videos coming…Onge.. UK
As a john deere mechanic I did alot of work for a used implement dealer. The best thing I saw was a 4555 with a miss. Turned out it had a spun rod bearing. The pervious owner had cut rod at wrist pin pushed it up into bore removed the rest of rod and wrapped rod journal on crank with and intertube and hoseclamp it so it would hold oil pressure. Selling it saying it had an injector out.
Hi from uk Clint and crew👋👍 am up to high pressure fuel to return and I must admit since Mrs C&C gave you a smile and cash I knew this was goin to be good 👌 but c'mon missing this missing that hmmm your right some shouldn't work on what they don't know! We have a rule at work just me and boss work on cars but if customer comes in and start convo saying "" since this place or person touched car "" we just disregard the job and say one of 2 things either won't touch it or we'll sort it but we do hole thing again properly to what we identify but yeah on cars alone I've seen some dangerous things 😢😡 but Kevin gives great positive advice too on this one haha🤣 can't wait to see the the series on this one 👌 thanks for your time be safe and see you soon 👍 👋 good luck with this one too !!!
My take and guess is this; Having been in the Army and observed more than one maintenance facility and been mechanicing most of my pre retirement years, I lay odds that they sent out a soldier that hadn’t been out of his mechanics training too awful long to work on the tractor/crawler and he hooked up the fuel lines wrong. Then it wouldn’t start, he burned up the starter, so someone thought the engine was toast and started to swap out the engine (Draining all the oil) and then more important things came up and a decision was made to no longer put any hours into it and sell it at auction. Little did they know it would wind up at the professional shop of C&C, where soon it will be purring like a kitten. Can't wait for Part 2.
C&C Equipment +: Looking forward to following along w/ you guys for another set of _very good_ videos! Thanks for putting them out there. 🤗 As Glynn's comment sez, "It doesn't cost... anything", so here's an _'Old Curmudgeon'_ three 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻for nothing!
That tunnel goes to Matt on his channel. He gets pretty excited When things in the middle of nowhere start. Pretty cool kid pretty mature for his age as well
I am a combat vet and the biggest thing with this deere is it is ex military and the new soldiers in the military are just lazy and do not care. So unfortunately now you will have to triple check everything from the military before you purchase them. I wish you guys the best of luck with your future adventures and keep the good content coming.
You must not be a true Vet or you wouldn't be trashing the young ones. Maybe they were trying to piece it together to get it back home, unlike the billions of dollars of equipment biden left behind. You and Clint think about it!!!!!
Easy with the sweeping generalizations there fellas. You realize that the old cranks said the same about us 30 years ago, right? There are good kids out there who get even more disgusted with the unmotivated crybaby members of their own generation than we do. My nephew is one example that proves you wrong. He joined the Army because he admires his former 11B uncle for some unexplainable reason (haha) and is a hard charger. He's barely 21, a 12B, was an honor grad in his BLC class at Ft McCoy, got his E5, is a Combat Engineer team leader who cares about his guys and keeps it real in the field. Though younger than everyone in his E-EOCA class by 5-10 years, he had the highest overall score. After he reclasses to 11B from Engineers this summer, he's doing a SOCOM preparation course to help him make it through SFAS/Q-Course. All the weak entitled jackasses of his generation who suddenly forgot how biology works, etc that get their voices amplified by social media annoy him to no end. Don't give up hope, guys - there are more good young soldiers out there than you think.
These army people need to leave all this mechanical stuff to the professionals like yourself Clinton we all know you'll get this dozer up and running and will get to the bottom of the problems great job
Another who dun it. My favorite kind of videos. Can't wait to see why it won't start. You see why the military need such a big budget? Can't fix it just buy a new one.
Someone sure didn't know what they were doing or wanted to get back at Someone. Glad Kevin saved us. You guys really know what you are doing thanks for the video
Love all this stuff. My Dad ran an agricultural machinery repair shop. Nothing as big as a dozers but tractors and combines etc. Used to love helping out👍
I’m no heavy equipment mechanic but am a jet mechanic for the military and as much stuff is touched/half assed thrown in, makes you wonder if the motor didn’t blow up and they wrote it off and they started robbing parts off of that dozer to keep others going.
I think Clint called it right by saying this dozer is a training machine and we are the students …😳😳😳 one problem after another to problem solve…..I hope you got a good deal at the auction on this one….lol… This dozer may need lots of love and missing parts…lol. Great video.
1/6/23; 2day Inop JD 850J arrival & begin troubleshooting.. so far new starter & correct placement of fuel hoses! (what!)..+ 'Forward' position mechanism is engaged during 'start-up' when should be in Neutral! So Clint, you are showing we viewers lots of great analysis! Keep us in the ➿ loop. Hope next video (#2 of 2?) has all issues identified, repaired/replaced, run tested & painted & ready for sale. Hope you tell # of hours & cost of parts to get this 1000 hour 850J up & ready to work! Stay safe & carry on!👍👍👍👏😊🍺
Come on everyone hit that like button it doesn't cost you anything 👍👍👍👍👍👍
I always click like at the start, & if there’s anything I don’t like I click it again, I’ve never clicked it a 2nd time 🙂👍

@@DigginLife21 maybe you look nice in that dozer Todd
I think I saw a smile on that dozer's face finally somebody qualified is working on me😁😁😁👍👍
My life flashed before my eyes when you dropped me under the dozer, BUB! That battery advice from Kevin! Priceless!!!💩💩💩💩💩

Love the friendly atmosphere. And willing to keep on till it runs❤❤❤❤

And it’s all YOUR hard earned tax dollars pissed away, too!
i just love watching you finger these machines out because you seam to know them inside out and backwards
Your sidekick LB is hilarious, you need to give him a raise. Fire 🔥 it up! Let’s see if it runs! LB stands for little buddy 😆
Let's get this beast repaired boys, you can do it I have faith in y'all ❤
Do love the way you prioritize things. Kevin is quite the comic!

They've started to take the engine out. Then figured out that C&C can do this for a video.

Definitely educational for someone who wants to learn despite the cosmetic surgeries required!
Love the sarcasm, it's the way you hook up the batteries to get extra power.. you all crack me up...

You guys MUST make delivery driver's day. Having that capability to unload such weight.
That's 18 ton crane at 10 foot radius with boom retracted. Very interesting video.
These shows you make are better to watch than the TV!!! Can't wait for part 2!!
This is really interesting. I would love to work on this one with you guys. Great to see the boss. I have no doubts you’ll get this running, because you have the skill set. This is why I enjoy your channel.

I remember my first job in the military was estimating for the rebar in a large building we would be building in Okinawa, Japan. I had no oversite from my superiors. you can imagine what we ended up with. I can assure you i did learn how to estimate for a large construction project from that experience.
I got a good look at 3 of those sausage fingers as Kevin was reaching for the fallen gopro. It reminded me of a 3 toed sloth reaching for a limb to swing on.

As a john deere mechanic I did alot of work for a used implement dealer. The best thing I saw was a 4555 with a miss. Turned out it had a spun rod bearing.

What a stack of loose bolts. This video and the progression up if this dozer is going to work is going to be a good one
My take and guess is this; Having been in the Army and observed more than one maintenance facility and been mechanicing most of my pre retirement years, I lay odds that they sent out a soldier that hadn’t been out of his mechanics training too awful long to work on the tractor/crawler and he hooked up the fuel lines wrong. Then it wouldn’t start, he burned up the starter, so someone thought the engine was toast and started to swap out the engine (Draining all the oil) and then more important things came up and a decision was made to no longer put any hours into it and sell it at auction.
Little did they know it would wind up at the professional shop of C&C, where soon it will be purring like a kitten. Can't wait for Part 2.
With the incompetence in the military, it’s no wonder we haven’t won a single war in 80 years!
I like this video because of the crane operation. Lifting a heavy 850 with it. The dozer itself seems like to much stress to work on.
Fire it up. This was sad, funny and the best Friday night movie out there!!! Lube those sausages and keep em smooth!

I am fully confident that team C&C will sort this dozer out. I love the explanations of what you are doing on your diagnostics a lot of wisdom here.

can't wait to see how this one goes. experts in action!
yeah, starter is immediately picking up a load and dragging down. I agree at this point, most likely hydrostatic engagement. Always enjoy your videos.
good wash down is good start

Love all this stuff. My Dad ran an agricultural machinery repair shop. Nothing as big as a dozers but tractors and combines etc. Used to love helping out👍
This series is gona be good!
Well this is an interesting one. I hope that it doesn't turn out to be a nightmare. Thanks for sharing.
I’m no heavy equipment mechanic but am a jet mechanic for the military and as much stuff is touched/half assed thrown in, makes you wonder if the motor didn’t blow up and they wrote it off and they started robbing parts off of that dozer to keep others going.
Ah. The ol’ can bird.
I think Clint called it right by saying this dozer is a training machine and we are the students …😳😳😳 one problem after another to problem solve…..I hope you got a good deal at the auction on this one….lol… This dozer may need lots of love and missing parts…lol. Great video.
1/6/23; 2day Inop JD 850J arrival & begin troubleshooting.. so far new starter & correct placement of fuel hoses! (what!)..+ 'Forward' position mechanism is engaged during 'start-up' when should be in Neutral! So Clint, you are showing we viewers lots of great analysis! Keep us in the ➿ loop. Hope next video (#2 of 2?) has all issues identified, repaired/replaced, run tested & painted & ready for sale. Hope you tell # of hours & cost of parts to get this 1000 hour 850J up & ready to work! Stay safe & carry on!👍👍👍👏😊🍺
You guys are fun to watch! It's nice to see people take pride in there jobs and country! Be safe.
