Looked like the Pony Motor was moving around like the bolts are loose.. Good work guys . I'm still running my 68 Cat D7E .. The oldies were built to last..🐎🥃😎👌
Like the other guy said, on the first start of the day, get the pony motor running and warm enough to roll the diesel without stalling the pony out. Roll that diesel at a fast clip for 5 minutes or longer the put some heat in the diesel, the pony heats the coolant and a lot of them have their exhaust ducted through the intake manifold on the diesel to heat the air. After it’s run a decent amount of time, give the diesel some fuel, it should smoke white and then start after a minute or so. Turn the gas to the pony off and let it run dry to prevent gas from getting in the oil and ruining the pony. Never turn it off with the mag switch.
I worked for a guy that had one about the same year ,it had a pony motor that he couldn't get parts for so he put a 4 cyl Ford motor from a pinto in it after a few months of setting the blade down on two chains at the end of the day and every morning we hook it up to 2 DM800 Mack's and tow start it,pulling on it lifted the blade,it usually started in 10 feet or less
I always find it entertaining to read in the comment sections below where viewers condemn the use of starting fluid even though the old manufacture manuals from Cat and Euclid actually suggest it, especially in cold weather.
My father was part of developing a sand pit. Getting rid of all the overburden they had a D9 [with from memory hydraulics? ]and a near new Terex scraper. They got the D9 well and truly bogged,, to the radiator cap!! nose down. They found a wat spot! This around 1970. They dug around it then tried to pull it out with the scraper, than the scraper and the big Hough front end loader. It did not move.Eventually when the weather dried up,, like 3 months later they eventually got it out with another D9 plus the scraper and loader. It left a big squelchy hole! That noise from the pony engine,, I remember that from around the area as our semi rural area became semi metro. Dozers running on 2 sides of ut
Looks like an 18A CAT D9 direct drive, possibly a 19A with a torque converter drive but cannot see enough. 1956 will be the first year of manufacture.......in real nice condition, still a lot of work left in her, blade or scraper.
That looks like a old soviet dozer the cab even a lgp or wide track model from Alaska the Dalton pass maybe just things older fella have taught me the nose and cable set up like a elucid set up the cat usally ran the cable or the top like the international dozers but cool man the 50s style seem it have the hydro set up bit you never know built on site fron crate . In the oil fiel I can see it take the blade cables off and use as the the hoist and rod set up cool stuff
D 353 runs about 1200 rpm. Same engine as a 36 A or 46 A D-9, but they run1-2 hundred rm faster. Thus more hp. Looks like a direct drive making it an 18A. We had one we used farming . It would pull a train of implements at 4 mph.
My father wondered if the previous owner referenced in the video was austin taylor? if so he may have a bit more history on it...and thinks he may have run it at one point.
iL pony a benzina, serve per riscaldare le precamere del motore diesel essendo motore a iniezione indiretta. Quando s'inserisce il pignone per l' avviamento del motore a gasolio, e fuma bianco e segnale che le precamere sono ancora fredde, quindi bisogna con il motorino pony continuare a riscaldare le precamere ancora per qualche minuto, per poi riprovare e si vedra il fumo dal tubo di scarico uscire di colore nero, quindi sta partendo. Poi se abbiamo un motore giù di fasce la partenza e un po' più lunga, a quel punto una spruzzatina all' aspirazione di starter si può dare.
Never, ever, EVER use starting fluid on a diesel engine that has a pony motor. The pony motor is there to warm up the diesel engine and start it. If the diesel engine wont start with a pony motor, there IS something wrong and no amount of starting fluid will get it running anyway.
Your right never ever use easy start to a engine it's like a drug when your engine gets addicted to it ,it cause all kinds of problems in the UK the small engine to start the cat is called a donkey engine,😊,
@charleswalton5132 easy start dries the bore's making it harder for the engine to start and eventually causing more damage especially on high mileage engines
Beautiful old machine, sounds sweet.

Don't know where it sat all that time but it's amazing the windows aren't blown out
What a nice piece of old iron. Love the sound of the turbo. Lucky you!!
Wow this hit good content and pictures. That dog was neat. Sometimes people create amazing things just by doing.

Not too bad for a "young rookie" ! And that ol' niner is still so powerful, nice !
Pop gave it a little smelling salts and it came to life. I love to see people bringing old iron back to life
Also them fan blades you can push them in and turn on the other way there should be a spring on the shaft they are bi-directional
She is fitted with the pedestal seat and also heard the man refer to sixth gear so I would definitely say an 18A direct drive model 😉👍
I guess if you are gonna learn, you may as well start out big! What a great old gal you got there, congrats =)
Watching these two men sit and chat reminds me of that ole commercial of Bartle and James, Thank you for your support.
that looks like fun. glad you are saving this old iron.
Absolutely fantastic vid & machinery
Thank you!

Way too much fun 🤩

Wow, nice condition. What's with the blue firebird sitting there?
Ha, I figured someone would like to see that. Made sure to get a shot of it.
Can't believe it doesn't smoke at all. Must not have too many hours on it.
Well done fellas !!
Wow such a cheerful fella.
Magnificent
Boys and their toys!!
I'm 75 years old and cut my teeth on equipment like C Pull scrapers
I see you getting it stuck in the future. You’re going to need the D7
Great Job Guys
Sweet ol' gal nice tractor im new subscriber
Thanks, we really appreciate all the support we've gotten lately.
@vintageequipment3768 welcome I'm retired owner operator u keep making these I'll keep hitting like button and watch god bless
Sounds like it runs great
Looks like an 18A CAT D9 direct drive, possibly a 19A with a torque converter drive but cannot see enough. 1956 will be the first year of manufacture.......in real nice condition, still a lot of work left in her, blade or scraper.
I want one!
the fan blades can be turned to blow out in the summer and in for winter .
Man,dog, man. All look alike
CAT D353 engine ! it is fitted with standard grouser pads.

D9's are rare. One with a cab more so.AL B.
I bet that D9 could pull a forty-foot wide, 4 deep disc setup.
Even old boys have toys.
That old girl sounds and runs like she just came off the assembly line.
I always idled mine down for awhile before shutting off
No a 318 is a d6 engine, also cat 12 graders, I don’t know the number of a d9 engine 2:14

On face book
Friends of the stretch D8
It’s about the D8 cats that worked in Antarctica for 50 years
That old girl is mint! Look at that undercarriage.

Yes it sounds like your Dad knows this machine, Austin Taylor is the previous owner. Maybe he can come out and talk to us for a follow-up video?

D9 didnt come out til, i beleive 58, in 56 the biggest was the D8....
So that’s a D318 in that as well
No a 318 engine is a D6 engine or a Cat 12 grader engine. I don’t know the number of a D9 engine

Stop using fast start ,it'll remove all the carbon build up, not good for engines
Before you own one you should learn how to run one
