i cant be the only one to be like: yay, Matt has uploaded a new video--> watches it immediately after work--> falls asleep after 20 minutes--> wakes up at the end--> has to rewind and watch it again
Yep, that's how it be, but It's just as good the second time round.
This ain't no VHS tape that ya rented from your local BlockBuster, Hollywood Video, or Movie Gallery, that had the sticker on it sayin' ,"Please be kind & Rewind"...Those days are gone, my friend!! Just messin' with ya. Have a great day. 👍👍
Funny. I awoke up too and was like, why did he do all that work and not push the branches DOWNHILL? Hope its minor, and look forward to the D8 purring along...
I'm excited for this
I do this all the time
I have a funny story for today's video! I was sitting at Denny's about to eat my breakfast, and I had my tablet with me. I was about to throw my headphones in and turn on your video, when an old trucker guy tapped me on the shoulder and asked "Hey! Is that Diesel Creek?" I told him yeah it was, and he asked "You mind if I watch it with you?" I scootched over so he could move his breakfast over to my table, and propped up my tablet to watch. After the video was done, we polished off our coffee and chatted a bit, then he got up and paid for my breakfast without me knowing lol. So, the moral of this story: Thanks Matt! For the video and the free breakfast! 🥞🥞🥞
It also teaches people to be polite and friendly to everyone! 😂
I’m happy hearing that and you’re a good neighbor as well.
Thanks for showing us and I love to watch. I am 84 years old and when I was 15 and 16 I worked with Allis Chambers at the Fair in Knoxville, TN for 3 weeks using and learning about their large EQUIP and showing others all about it. All that was fun and a great experience for me getting my life started off in the right direction, and learning how to work hard. Before I had always worked all the time with my Dad, and knew how to assist on the job. today in 1.11.24. All be safe.
Am a D8 operator here in Nigeria I would love to work with u in your country
@@user-gc7jm9tv9b Hey, do you guys watch Itchy Boots over there?
Greetings from Germany! That must be a tough Job to operate a D8 in your country.Given the muddy mess that happens during Rainy Season. I did not know about how cracy that destructs all roadwork, until I watched Itchy Boots traveling..
one of my favorite parts about how you restore your equipment is how you use other restored equipment to help do the big restorations
Turbo bolts would've been a good rest for kroil. I bought some, boy that stuff is EXPENSIVE!!!
All heavy equipment should come with a Cresent wrench.Stay safe Matt.
My Dad had a punch that came with a WAYNE CRANE!!! It is still in his tool box. I will have to get a picture of it.
And a pair of Vise Grips
Swedish nut lathe …. Lol
@@jerryhogate3640
Vise grips are nothing more than a crescent wrench with a bad attitude 😆
@Landon-si5xc Get a life .I don't even like Goats
It’s nice seeing people restoring old iron and appreciating the machines that built the world back in the good old days
I agree. Personally, I prefer the old iron because there are no electronics to fail.
American Iron . We should still be building . Not importing .
I mean I think I (and a whole lot of other people) wouldn’t consider the height of the Vietnam war and Segregation “The good ole days”…….

The precision with which you guided the blade pins into their receivers was impressive. Fine motor control with inherently coarse machinery. Nice.
Sometimes, like now, I rewatch these vids just to hear the theme music by the SSV's again. It just cheers me up, gives me hope and says everything is going to be fine. I ABSOLUTELY love it.
Glad you enjoy the music!
I just finished watching the repair job of the turbo and now I can just continue watching great content. That saved my rainy sunday.
I watched the restoration too, that was so fascinating. "these parts are unobtanium" and they just had the old hardware sat in their inventory. it was so cool!
I watched part of the turbo rebuild last night.
Watched it yesterday. It was very interesting. I was surprised with the final repair price given what they had to do to get it back in working order.
Hi Matt
16:20
Great video, well done!
Loved the Area Diesel video too :) Those guys are incredible.
I don’t understand why the new flange adaptor only has two holes, when the original had 4. Or did I miss something?
Cheers
Ray UK
@@aeros4meArea Diesel said that they had missed it. And Matt would be able to get it done ✅ but he missed it also 🤣
Matt have you ever thought of a hot diesel fuel flush of the oils system? This is what the local Alice Chalmers dealership would do on the old tractors that has set in barns for years in a non running condition.
They would drain the oil, and install a fitting on the oil plug and a hose with a shut off valve, and had a tank of about 25 gallons of Diesel fuel with with a oil flush additive, and they would heat the diesel fuel to 200 degrees and fill the engine with the diesel fuel and circulate the cleaner for 1 hour, and then they would shut off the fill valve drain all the diesel back into the bulk storage tank for the engine flusher.
This was a shop built engine flusher which used 2 electric circulation pumps salvaged out of an old boiler system, and the heater was a steam heater that heated the diesel fuel.
When they disassemble an old engine to be rebuild the inside the engine was sludge free .
Mat you might want to build . Also the bulk tank has 2 or 3 sediment tanks that, so it was clean engine flush, for the most part.
That’s a good idea
@@DieselCreek You also can run the engine without the turbo to warm the oil before draining. All you have to do is cap the oil supply line to the turbo and fire it up.
I've never paused a 1-hour video 9 minutes in, to watch a supplemental 2-hour video about a component repair, to then return to the starting video. Those ADS folks are true artisans. I'm glad it's the weekend. 😃
Heh. I did the exact same thing. It made for an exciting evening of viewing. 👍
I love when you rescue old iron from the auction, service it, run it, then either keep it or send it on. The world needs more guys like you. Keep up the good work.
Luv that hot wrench and the way he uses it
Now thats what i call a great company that takes the time to add small details on the turbo 👍😁
@@Landon-si5xc nah i belive in the good lord Monkey Wrench and sticky greese.
Jesus is Lord.
Crescent wrenches, a good set of pliers, a good set of vise grips, a hammer, and profanity are my favorite tools. Sometimes just cussing at the thing puts the fear of God in it and it gives up and comes loose... Yeah that never happens but it's better than me throwing the wrench! Keep up the great work man.
I would say that Wright makes some really great tools.
My grandfather said a crescent. pliers . hammer. and bailing wire he could fix any tractor
Hey Matt, I am 80 I have worked on cars & trucks most of my life, I couldn't have done it without the Cresent wrench. Keep on doing what you love & I will keep on enjoying you at work!!!
😂
Great to see the Old Girl back up and going! I’m sure you’ll get her back up and running like she was. Thanks!!
Never gets old to see an old machine come back to life.
ADS went above and beyond for the turbo! That is worth a watch!
Thanks for watching!
ADS is really great people ..and they quickly get your gear back to you..the id tag is just the small details but they always try to make it a personal job ..one of the many reasons i like ADS..not to mention they never fail to fix the broken bits.
We do our best every day! Thanks for the kind words.
I really like the Stories that come along here in the Comment section with every Video. Very interesting Ideas and stuff I never thought or heard of! Thanks everyone!🤠👍👍👍
The turbo sounds great. Nice job on this dinosaur Matt. She’s got plenty of life left in her.
Keep an eye on your new turbo bolts. Cat uses special (and expensive) high temp bolts for that application because regular bolts expand and contract too much and can either become loose or snap.
All we ever used at the shop was CAT grade 8 bolts and nuts ! But yes if you Ofer special they are a little lighter in color from the regular bolts & nuts !
omg
Sunday is my only day off in the week. It’s an absolute treat to wake up and watch your stuff first thing with a hot coffee before the critters need feeding. Thanks Matt.
PS why the heck Shell doesn’t sponsor you I’ll never understand.
They do….. lol
@@DieselCreek oops 😅 guess the coffee hadn’t kicked in yet. Oh well. That’s good to hear 👍 keep up the good work.
@DieselCreek great stuff Matt.
@DieselCreek - Sponsored? Ha! I was wondering why "when in doubt, you ALWAYS drain it out", when others might try to get a few more miles out of the oil. I admit your recommendations are effective, because Shell Rotella with zinc will be the first oil I will look at for my meager vintage autos when i retire and have enough time to resurrect them.😂
@@DieselCreek would be good to just state that in the video then
Haha! Funny quote from BackyardAlaskan came to mind while watching your video: "In Alaska, everything is a hammer...except a screwdriver; a screwdriver is a chisel!" I enjoy watching you work on old equipment. There are few things in this world that give me more warm-fuzzies than taking a good old piece of machinery and bringing it back to working condition.
Our baby daughter was born last saturday. I am so happy to tell you she can sleep fine on my lap while the newly rebuilt turbo whistles through my speakers :)
Great job Matt!
Matt, You took me back to when I was a kid in high school in the mid 70’s watching you drive your D8. I was a laborer working for a small construction company out of Wamego KS during my summers operating a (-] backhoe meaning a shovel 😉😉😉 doing my part putting in the drainage pipe for a large number of farm ponds. The company I worked for had a D8 that I’d get a chance to see operating every now and then while I working and I always envied the driver with all that power in his hands in that giant machine and the sound of that diesel and turbo were awe inspiring... Thanks for your efforts of bring old machines back to life and taking old guys like me back to our younger days. I’m now a retired pharmacist but I remember those days working in the dirt with fond memories...
It warms my heart whenever I see a youtuber using a oxy acetylene torch.
The custom Plate at area Diesel Service Made and installed on the Turbo Is Just awesome What a Amazing Touch to that repaired Turbo Matt 😮 10:31 @Diesel Creek
Dear Diesel Creek. I was 7 years old in 1964. So, I was then playing with sandbox toys when that sturdy D8 was built. You sir have a big kids' dream machine. So glad to see it running. I imagine the fuel pickup got another slug of yuck. Recommend siphon off anything at the bottom of the fuel tank. Mud or water perhaps moved around when on the hillside. Enjoy that big boy's toy. Wish I could see it sometime. Thanks for sharing. David.
I have a lot of fond memories about the D8. My dad was a service manager for a CAT dealer and got to run this when I was 14. In the mid 60's I was able to help with cleaning land for new lake with instruction not to worry about small to mid size trees.
My Grandfather had one he used to knock down trees to enlarge his fields. It sat more than it was used, so us grandkids played on it a lot. But what was left of the paint on it was red, for some reason.
I appreciate your attitude!! No matter what, you don't get down & show aggravation!! You just keep trying!! God bless you!! Thanks for a great channel!! 👍❤️👍
I appreciate that
@@DieselCreek Matt you have got to move that seat back up. I mean that just looks completely uncomfortable!!! Just saying. P.S. I have finished the video yet... I usually comment like that so if you ever see my comments then please that that into account. Plus I Love your videos Man.
I think the angriest we've seen Matt get was the brush mower videos. All the loose hardware and no oil in the gearbox got him a little heated.
@@superdrummergaming hahahha yeah I remember that... Wow was my reaction...
The right tool for the job is the tool that gets the job done. Great content man, I love seeing these old machines coming back to life.
The happiness of Mat , when diesel started )))
The look on your face when she started up was priceless. Pure joy. Your love for these old machines really shows. Thanks for the entertaining video.
I would wear a FFP2 mask if I were him though. Those old gaskets may well be asbestos...
The old beast springs to life and is ready to plow some dirt! Glad to see it running again!
That turbo sounds awesome
Music to our ears!
Matt I was lucky to see the turbo rebuild by Area Diesel first before watching your video, it just all flowed together. Great work mate.
Great job. I enjoy watching each and every video. Being old and not able to do much, it give me pleasure to watch a young man with all your drive. Thank you from a very old man. Thanks again. Will wait for your next video.
The world might have not been the best back in the old times but they made their machines pretty and good
they were too busy building the world and machines to worry about peoples opinons or who sleeps with who.
World has fallen apart and now most of the machines suck.😢
How was “the world” worse in 1964 than it is now? That’s an insane belief.
@@matthewtaylor3308that was right around when the Cuban Missile Crisis happened so there was the looming threat of WWIII breaking out
@@matthewtaylor3308 I'd LOVE to see you go from now to 1964. Sure, your political beliefs may be a bit more popular, and some stuff may be a bit cheaper (keep in mind you'd be earning 10 times less as well, and probably even less than that), but you'd also lose ALL creature comforts. I find it impossible to believe that anyone would ACTUALLY like to go back in time 50 years. For a few days to experience it, sure, but to live in permanently? Absolutely not.
Dad Gum! That tractor sounds great, I mean, to led a hard life it probably has!
Later all I could think was "DON'T BACK OVER THE OUTHOUSE!!!!"
Well, it was soundin' and runnin' rather well for a little while anyway.
The AC forklift continues to prove its weight in gold.
My Grandfather retired as a Oiler at the company that owned that Cat D8 i don't know what Grandfather did in his early years in that company i just think it's to see a piece of equipment he may have ran & keep running on your video
Thanks for the great content Matt
@@Landon-si5xc😴
Good morning from Vancouver BC, Matt. I watched the first half of Area Diesel's video. Thanks to Curtis for posting this thorough video and the problems encountered rebuilding a old D8 turbo. It was lucky they had another core or it would have been very disappointing results. Especially, the housing on yours was corroded thin around the head entrance meaning the scrap bin. I think you are the first guy to undertake such a project on RUclips. That Machine appears to be in pretty good shape, which in itself is rare.
Ya know this world was blessed with some of the best mechanics! YOU ARE ONE OF THEM! Please do not ever leave!
My grandfather did excavation work pretty much his entire life, starting just after WW2 until he passed in 2011. He wouldn't own a loader or a dozer that wasn't Caterpillar. He loved them and trusted them completely. I worked with him a bunch and I learned from experience if its not Cat then it should be Ford and if Ford or Cat doesn't make it, buy John Deere.
Thank you for these videos. I can smell them. :)
Nothing like Sunday with Matt!!
lazy Sunday afternoon in a very wet part of UK just got better with a DC vid. Great Mat, thanks
I really like the service videos.
Just loved both the D8 videos. I'm a 77 year old retired mechanical engineer and I just lap this stuff up. Well done. Keep 'em coming.
I just watched the turbo rebuild on area diesel's channel! Expensive process, but seem like honest people and they do good work. Actually refreshing to see a company put prices out there like that, very helpful for the rest of us. Can't wait to see how the doser turns out!
Thanks for watching!
We really appreciate how down to earth you are
Was looking for another Sunday Matt video, and taking a break from my genealogy research, and There was the latest Matt Video. When he show the repaired Turbo and mentioned the link to where he sent it... I stopped this video to watch the full repair of it to where he sent it. amazing job in the repair and all that they could save and had to replace. For what it cost, Matt got a deal on it. Now onto the rest of this video..the people that complained aobut you using a crescent wrench with these old machines, are apperently ones that never work on older machines like you do, so better to just watch the videos, and enjoy them. might learn a thing or two. At my age, I do not use ANY of these big machines, nor have I ever, but I enjoy watching the passion that Matt has, and in getting them all running. His work ethetic is and his determination is amazing and one to be admired. Husband and I enjoy them. thank you Matt for all your hard work, in making these videos. also started watching Scrappy Industries as well. Pretty amazing how you almost need more hands to be running the camera, the drone and then the dozer all at once...and then..........it stops while on the back of the hill!!! YIKES!!! waiting for the next video.
Absolute loved the ADS video and I was soooo happy to see this video posted. I've subscribed to ADS after watching the injection pump and turbo. BIG thumbs up from down under. Cheers mate
Thanks for watching!
Absolutely awesome to see the Ole girl running and pushing again..I see where you get your passion and admiration for this old iron..I am right there with you. Always great wrenching and appreciate your sharing of knowledge and history of these old machines...looking forward to seeing what's next. Stay safe and keep cool😎🚜🛠️🇺🇸🔧🚛😇
Really would have liked to see you vacuum out the intake manifold after seeing the gasket debris & rust drop in as you removed it Matt.
Stuff a rag in the intake manifold before scraping and please wear rubber gloves when dealing with old oil - that stuff is toxic
It was the Exhaust manifold gasket.
@@hiscifi2986 The exhaust is what spins up the turbo. It still passes through even though it doesn't enter the engine.
Is there any greater love than Matt's love for his D8 dozer? I don't think there is!
His 977L is a good contender
This must be a version of the american dream. Fixing old steel and earning honest money in front of all us who wishes we could do this kind of work. This is a self made man.
YES GUYS! we're getting D8 content again ❤
You could always make your own extension to remove the drain plugs by using an old no.8 bolt with the same size head as the socket and then weld another nut on the other end of the threaded section. That way you don't have to worry about losing that nice old wrench or cramming it up into the belly pan and the handle getting in the way.
Nothing beats the sound of old diesel 1:01:48 wow what a melody...)
Awesome and outstanding as always.Thanks for sharing and taking us along
Love the railroad spike Peavy leaning against the tracks!!!!
I hope to see Matt at National Pike next Saturday or Sunday.
I believe the term is, dam nice BIG BOY TOY, great find great job you nailed it.
Matt, just finished watching ADS rebuild of the turbo, mate, they do the impossible almost straight away, their miracles take at least a week, yours was the second one, they are excellent craftsmen.
Thanks for watching!
Those old CATERPILLARS are absolutely unstoppable beasts I gotta find me a massive old D9 for my construction business it reminds me of the killdozer movie 1974 I think came out, I remember seeing it on here. It plows into some type of radioactive rock or it kills the operator then it gets a complete mind of its own destroying the crews things and basically the whole crew on the island.
So happy these historic machines get a new lease of life for the younger generations to see. Great content as always ❤
This channel is a great way to learn about a varity of machines.
Love seeing her alive again!
Also, couldn't help but imagine the expressions on any critters faces in that brush pile, lol.
"Well, Realtor Mouse said this home was going to go fast...
We had that very same d8 cat in Vietnam 4 of them that were abused in the rock quarries. Seabees. We drained the oil on the ground. Made for nice blacktop after done a few times
My knees are now gone from jumping off heavy equipment. Both d8 and ts24 Euclid
Glad to see ur doing that restoration as it would never get done at my age of 77 also all our filters of the day were sock filters
Sunday with Matt and Diesel Creek and working on the Dozer ,Matt never fails with His content and it happens to be be one of my favorite subjects Dozers love this stuff , If you have been following Matt for years as I have you can see His skill set on working on heavy equipment has really taken off and he will tackle anything a tip of the hat to you Matt for getting it done
Look out, he's going "TURBO!"
"If only I had an overhead crane"! Lol.
To pick up a 45 gallon drum with forks, set your forks just wide enough to go outside the drum raise up to the rim. The rim holds the drum.
Yah…. Not this wore out old forklift lol
How pi’s the crane project progressing 😅
Is that is
Stupid spellcheck
Greetings from Central NH Lakes Region - I watched the Area Diesel Services rebuild of the turbo - that was awesome. Those guys are incredible. I would highly recommend spending the time to watch that ADS video if you are all interested in seeing how true professionals rehab a piece of obsolete machinery and bring it back to life.
Thanks for watching!
Great video Matt! Love that Turbo sound!
Music to our ears!
@@AreaDieselService you guys did a great job. Loved your rebuild video and it’s great to know you exist. Not many great shops like yours left!
That dozer needs to be in a movie.! It is awesome.!
Hey Matt, keep up the great work and content. I look forward to your videos every week!
me to i want a lot more :-)
Enjoyed watching tour turbo be rebuilt
Thanks for watching!
The best Cat service video I’ve watched, bar none. Great work Matt.
@58:45... BOY HOWDY listen to that turbo scream! VERY nice Matt!!!
You're getting pretty good at fixing that old heavy equipment. You might be able to make a career out of it! 😉😁
the packaging material is called INSTA-PACK. its a 2 part foam in place packaging material. fun stuff.
We do it with insulating foam cans - simple!
Words can't describe how much I'd like to see this thing restored
That turbo didn't look too big in the first shot. Until Matt stuck his entire hand in it!
She's a biggun.
I'm not going to lie when your first backed up to the hill and started to go down the hill my heart sank. But the old girl walked right back up the hill. Matt I can not wait to see the videos for this beautiful machine.
I have to admit, I thought it would push a whole lot more than it seemed willing to actually push. Maybe I just envision that size of dozer pushing more than that amount of brush. It wasn't even dirt or rock.
That was one fantastic video Curtis made on rebuilding the turbo. A phenomenal amount of work went into it. Hope your fuel problem isn't anything major or too time consuming.
Is that a different Curtis to Kurtis of CEE Australia who rebuilt a D8 blade?, if so, you need to check out his video, I was knackered just watching the non-stop cutting, grinding and the welding...., and then more welding.... C&C, CEE, Dirt Perfect and Diesel Creek are the best channels on You Tube for getting it done! Thanks, Matt, for this one, an old school D8 hard at work is one of the best sounds in the world.
@@andymack5093 - I'll have to check it out. They are two different people. But you left out a number of other good RUclips channels.
@@flick22601 Many thanks Flick, I've now checked out ASD and yes,- another great channel, - must be something in the name Curtis/Kurtis? lol....
@@andymack5093 Kurtis is amazing to watch.
Nice! We have a lot of D8 Fans, owners, and operators in the Club. Great to see this one coming back to life.
I could listen to that tubo all day it's like an old switzer
yes a cliff hanger! Probably a clogged fuel system as you said Matt. Looking forward to see what the issue was!
You really need one of those inductive bolt heaters. They seems to work great and save the hardware, and time.
You may have gotten them loose but hardware that rotted you would be better replacing anyway.
@DeatGaming Not to mention, if it is a Graded bolt, heating it will change its hardening and temper characteristics. Just better to replace at that point.
@@typrus6377 The inductive heater can heat the nuts less than red hot and save them, BUT I was thinking more to save studs. Which can be hard to get and a next level of PITA to replace.
The safety squint is strong in this one! LOL
“If you’re all caught up on the series…” Yeah Matt, like we don’t all binge watch these as soon as we can. No, just me?
Didn't know you were a lefty...Never thought I'd call a D8 Cat turbo beautiful but, she was pretty! We have some great rebuilders here in PA...42:30 sounded like a lawn mower...:) 43:13 That's the face of a happy man...:) That concrete pad held up REAL NICE...That's a 45 ton monster!
Actually it only weighs about 27 tons with the blade. Your thinking of a D9G or a D9H with a ripper and a large Ublade.
@@mattdillon4398 Oh, I was talking about when Matt is on it...: ).
Damnnnn that turbo sounds friggin awesomeeeee.
Area Diesel Service has sure been of high value to people rebuilding equipment and trucks.. Amazing capabilities. We are fortunate to have such a skilled services vendor in America.
I love that ADS recorded the repair and that you included the link. I feel more attached to the entire process now. I wish I had gotten into machines instead of computers and carpentry. I feel it's a bit late to start over, again, now in my late 40's. Now I can't remember what I did 5 minutes ago a lot of the time, so learning is a buttload more difficult. 🤣
I'm sure you've inspired a few folks into pursuing getting into machines and repair. Keep on using those crescent wrenches, your use is pretty exactly what they were made for as you explained. Let the complainers complain. Thank you for breathing a bit of life back into old forgotten machines others gave up on. I find that really satisfying to do and watch. Cheers.
A general rule for acceptable oil pressure is 10psi for every 1000 rpm.
My first ever 'dozer was a 1955 D8H with a donkey engine start (that's what we call 'em this side of the pond) manual transmission, cable operated blade and winch, full cab the size of a small house and would push a mountain over. Happy Daze!
So sweet to hear that start-up 👍I was smiling too!..
I'll definitely watch the rebuild video. It will be fascinating as well as help me since I am studying to become a diesel mechanic.
💪
