Love your mini truck setup. I saw a guy yesterday that had a 2wd Tacoma set up with a flatbed, fuel tank, and tool boxes. Smart compact daily driver to use after your machines are on site. Would have loved to flag him down and do a walk around. Throw a locker in a little Tacoma with some weight on the back and you could get just about anywhere.
Thanks so much! Have had a few Toyota trucks over the years. They are certainly tough little boogers. Would definitely make a cool little off-road service truck. Hope all is well. Always appreciate you watching!
We got rid of some older non osha fuel cans at my day job, and I dumped the remaining fuel in the tractor without even thinking to look at it. I'm thinking there may have been some trash mixed in. Have since cleaned those cans really well. Hoping it's behind me now. Thanks so much for watching!
Appreciate it! Unfortunately, I think I brought the trouble on myself. We replaced some old diesel cans at my day job and I took the old ones. Emptied the cans right into the tractor without looking. I'm thinking that's where the trouble started. Oh well, live and learn and hopefully everything cleaned out and behind me now!
It turns out there was dirt in the fuel. The tractor has been repaired and now you can manage the grass. I also like the filter on the mini truck tank.
A great feeling to have everything back in working order. Used the tractor for 8 hours yesterday and no issues 🙂 Always great hearing from you, I hope all is well!
I love how you causally state 'I did a quick full service off camera'. I am sure changing the fluids and filter took at least an hour. LOL What is the story with that long cross cut saw in the bed of the mini truck? Cody at Wranglerstar would be flipping his lid to see one of those.
The hour is the easy part, would be double that if I filmed the service 😂 Picked up the saw from a local guy. Actually got a cool one man saw from him as well. I'll try to show them in an upcoming video. Planning to hang on the barn wall. Sure wish Cody would get back to some of his saw and axe videos!
Question came up on another wood yard channel re: tractor loaders. Can your loader lift more weight than it can curl. Or Can it curl up more than the loader can lift ?
Mine definitely curls more. It has tremendous breakout strength. That being said, it hits high in its weight class for lifting. I can literally turn the tractor over by picking up heavier loads than I should. I picked this model, as it was pretty compact for tight spots, but had the ability to easily move a ton around.
What’s the plans for the old crosscut saw? We have several, I’ve actually used them years ago when I read the Foxfire series. Now I just like to look at them to remind me how much I appreciate modern chainsaws lol.
I was wondering if anyone would see that in the video. Picked it up from an old timer locally. It still works, gave it a good test. I like my Stihl better 😂 Planning to hang it on the barn wall for a little decoration.
And no mention of the big ol pile of bottled water in the corner, LOL. . That's a lot of 5 or 10 cent deposits. Though only 5~of the 10~ states that have deposit programs, take water bottles. . Even in Oregon it only applies to 3L and smaller water jugs, one gal are exempt.
Hahaha that's about a month's worth of water for our crews. No deposits here unfortunately. We really go through it in the warmer months. We've had a cool spring, so usage is down a bit, typically we are mid to upper 90s and high humidity in June. Currently it's 48 degrees. Loving it.
@Foxfire Projects yea totally different climate. The sea level part of the columbia river, averages 13 days a year above 90F. . Or at least that's the standing record at the PDX international Airport. Where I'm at up hi in the coast range, is even cooler.
Being that all the bottles labels are made in a handful of locations in the country I'd bet the Barcode is exactly the same as any other state. I did a test one time, and got a 12 pack of cola in eastern Idaho. And the machines in OR read and would pay out as if I had gotten it from the store. Spot on, same Barcode.....
2:36 I do not have an uncle named Bob, and I’m not sure how that would be relevant here even if I did 🤔
Thanks for the clear and concise video blowing out the hoses is something I will try for my fuel flow problems on a DK35
Glad to help. Thanks for watching!

Nice little tractor. I hope to own one someday to help with my little wood operation. Glad you were able to fix the problem easily!

Thanks so much. I appreciate you watching!
Hello from the Netherlands.
thanks for the video Fox.
Sincerely Hollandduck
Great to hear from you! Always appreciate you watching!
I am the least mechanically inclined person you know.
I found this interesting
Hoping I've got the problem licked. Loading up for 3 jobs away from the farm today. Fingers crossed for smooth sailing. Always great hearing from you!
Great video good thing it was a easy fix. I wonder where that bad fuel came from

I LIKE KIOTI.
Nice work. Service is important, but unfortunately, this was brought on because of bad fuel. Sorry for your trouble. Kenny

Looking forward to some new videos, hope all is well

Makes you think about all the transportation involved in the one little bottle of water.
