What happened to the last episode
THANK YOU FOR PUTTING THOSE LYNKS IN. I can never follow into next vid and now I'm so stoked!! Love it
Has anyone noticed that sandals guy looks like the wizard's son?
It seriously warms my heart to see these old machines that have waited for so long to finally get shown some love. I can imagine them sitting there, watching every sunrise and wondering " Maybe today's the day someone will come to our rescue. "
lmao
I kinda imagined them almost seeming like Optimus Prime, seeming so old and wise, but graceful in his age
NEVER LEAVE AN IRON SOLDIER BEHIND, DAVE! Really nice to see this stuff not rusting back into the earth. This is almost like an archeological find. The history of mining. Fantastic video guys.
While in the Army, I was a UH-1H Huey Helicopter crewchief/mechanic/door gunner. We transitioned to UH-60A models. It is a fantastic bird. When I found your channel and your purchase of a UH-60 along with all your other videos, It hooked me. Your channel is a daily watch for me and can't get enough. At first I just thought your channel was a Rotorhead only channel. But not the case obviously. Love it!!!!
The crew is such a well oiled machine. You guys all know what needs to be done, everyone knows their roll and the knowledge everyone has is super impressive. Its one thing to be a good mechanic inside a shop, but being a good mechanic out in the field is always so impressive. You guys are great at problem solving and communicating. Dope machines you guys got.
Normal when you got a few mechanics as friends haha
I don't know why, but watching you guys bring the old heavy equipment back to life is entertaining and satisfying. I learn so much about recovering old stuff. It's nothing I need to know, but I like learning new stuff.
I've been a gearhead my entire life.....but never really into heavy machinery, until now.......these videos are absolutely mesmerizing. Great work Dave and Crew!
You have some helluva good mechanics brother, great to see them old machines running
dont get scammed
@@TheJackotis thanks man but I get that crap all the time,I know better
No he dosent, its really just as redneck as you can get and machines that would run if you shoved playdoe in them.
Thanks for running the video.
I love watching you guys try to start stuff for the first time in years. would love to watch you guys travel around the country trying to start old engines and machines that have been left for dead.
Hi guys, you never seize to amaize me, at my 71 years of age, been there done that, now I sit down, tune the videos enjoy your outstanding and impressive videos, remains me when I was young, blessings to you guys, please be safe, keep up the good work, from the endless summer paradise Puerto Rico Jesus Torres.
There’s just something to say how satisfying it is to hear a “dead” motor crank over and run. Exhilarating content IMO.
The amount of knowledge, skill, and talent on this crew is astounding.
Love watching you guys get this stuff running and love the old spaghetti western music in the background !!! Thanks so much for sharing - can’t wait for the next video !!!
I can't usually watch longer form content without getting bored and switching videos, but heavy D's content always make me want to watch the whole video and more. Thanks for the sweet videos man!
I just subscibed to your channel yesterday and i cant stop watching. How you started your business from nothing to where you are now is amazing. what you all do is so interesting. Please keep the content coming. I get the feeling you are a veteran by the flag you proudly display. If so thank you for your service. God bless you all and your families.
Fond memories of those heavy toys with the Army Corps of Engineers construction support. prime the filter before installation. watch for hydraulic fittings getting loose. pita cold starts because you had to... excavators in the quarry, backhoes for touchups, 4yd frontends between the prime and second crushers, d8s, earthmovers, graders, and rollers. never ending days.
As painful as that was to watch; nail biting stuff. I'm giving you all a 11/10 for effort & enthusiasm. The big YEAHS from Diesel Dave had me chuckling & rooting for those monsters to run....Thanks Dave, Dave & amazing crew ;-)
Guys. Our son is OBSESSED with this kind of thing. He’s 4. You’re our new favorite obsession!! We are subscribed to your channel now & found you on FB so we don’t miss out. Keep up this awesome work!!! 😁🚧
Love the series!! Watching from San Diego California. Was talking to my chief about the series now he is hooked.
Love your content!! Can't wait for part 3!! My son loves working on heavy equipment!! So much so he started his own business!! He has a mobile heavy equipment service and he's doing good...he is busy!!
Is it just me, or is it fun watching Alan work on his Christmas presents! The video of watching all of these guys try and get it up his mountain will be amazing! :P
I had the same thought. He could really use them.
foreal that would be dope, everyone needs to like this so heavy d sees this.
@@patrickfrank76 Alan is happy, he got his building materials, plus he has a great job and makes plenty of money, we dont even know who owns these machines, plus they need to be restored, that old inclosed dozer would be a great restored machine, these pieces of equipment need to be preserved so they can possibly go in a museum one day, not sitting on another mountain with hardly any room, Alan doesn't need these machines, nor would he use them, he about cried when they cut the road up the mountain. Plus Alan doesn't take the best care of his equipment. Let's be real guys. I know you meant well though
@@mikehoncho658 we know who owns them. You think heavy D would take 6 guys out do the shop for days off of other PAYING projects for something he doesn’t now own? No no… he bought them and wants to get them running asap so he can’t get them back to the shop. Sold, or restored and his guys on paying projects. He 100% owns them would be bad business to waste all of these resources lol
@@modernprosperity7798 I've seen him do it for recoveries so yeah I would say we still don't know who owns them, I've seen them recover many of these old machines and then not ever see them again. He could be getting paid to do it for someone else and is doing it mostly for the video.
GREAT work, Dave !
I love how each of you come together with your own expertise to get machines running ❤️
wait... what?? You took a heavy starter off a running engine?? You're crazy, and I love it ;)
Seriously the sound effects crack me up. One of my favorite things about the vids. Like when Heavy D works the levers or when the plate rolls off the tracks and squashes. That cracks me up for some reason.
HeavyD always has the best content!🔥keep it up💯👍
you got spammed! but yes best content and definitely on fire 🔥 crankin out the vids lately its been excellent ! I really appreciated the interview he did with Dylan Rounds parents I think it was posted a couple of days ago now... was in depth and he got really personal with the family just was an excellent interview and really Regular Dave has pretty great interview skills I was super impressed
You are all a great working TEAM...To get these old machines running ..and know what your doing..is AWESOME... Can't wait to see the next episode!!!
Bud is indeed my spirit animal. I love that man.
This is good. Watched the first episode yesterday, just found this one… enjoyed see “Hans-Down” choosing his personality for the day…lol. (“Hans-Up” on a positive day!)
Really good to see the camaraderie of all you guys. Each one of you has a completely unique personality. That’s what makes this channel work so well.
Keep it up.
Rob, Tasmania, Australia
Always a little wonder that you guys get those old engines running again! Great work, cant wait for part 3🫶🏻
Great video. Thanks. I agree that the old dozer working well is a real Godsend. The engine sounded so good, after it cleared up. It will probably save a lot of extra trips for other equipment and stuff.
Love you guy's and what you do and stand for!! God bless ❤🤍💙
This is super interesting to watch! It`s gratifying seeing the machines come back to life and not die up on a mountain. Amazing work you and the crew are doing on this 1!
Great work Guys! I really love seeing You save theses Great Machines brought back to life. Hopefully you will be able to restore them and use them for all the good work that you guys do. Thanks for sharing and stay safe and healthy.👍
I just love this so much!! I learned to operate a D6 when i was about 25-26! It was always exciting to get something started that didn't really want to. I live in the mountains of NW CO with pretty severe winters. I was a young woman working in a mans world in the mid 70's. Loved every minute and each piece of equipment i got to operate was more exciting than the last! I'm retired now but still get excited when you get these giant babies running!
Man thats so cool! Never gets old watching those old machines start back up. Looking forward to part 3! =)
Mesmerizing. Truly. I'm addicted guys. You are producing incredible the most interesting and informative content on RUclips. Thanks much.
The quality of these videos are amazing! Keep it up
God, I love Allen, I love y’all guys for loving him just the same.
You bloke have achieved new PB! Great video. Editing, sound effects and music are great. Camera work is excellent (bit shaky on the handheld in the morning but, plainly, the coffee had yet to do its job ;). Loving this.
Great Video, Love the comradery and the laughs.
Would definitely like to meet the crew someday
Awesome video,,, the guy with the off white hat I think is one hell of a mechanic, he knew all the ins and out of that engine, amazing......dont lose him he is great.....
The recording is great but what the editors do with it is magic. The sound effects, music, view cuts are awesome. Seem to always laugh in these videos. Thank you the entire crew for another great entertaining video!
WOW TWO SMELLY SCAMMERS IN ONE COMMENT HELP REPORT THESE SMELLY SCAMMERS
@@markchapman2585 They are thick on this channel. I report them. Thanks for the heads up. Hadn't seen it yet. Annoying but they clearly must get people who fall for it.
@@AllOuttaSpoons Thanks and your welcome. A lot of people are gullible or elderly I try to warn as many as I can.
I love "Farmer fixing" and you guys do a fantastic job of breaking it down 👏
Love watching you all to get a machine to home base. God keep you all safe.
Y'all make the best team. And to think about how Florida man and the Wizard came into your lives is a huge blessing. Keep up the great work, y'all are heroes! 👍
I am liking it sir, crew did a great job getting things started and running, thanks for the update sir.
great job guys! Hunter & Allan should develop a 'marking' (like fighters aircrafts), for each engine they managed to re-start (maybe an engine icon, or a piston...).Keep up the good work!
IT REALLY WARMS MY HEART TO SEE THOSE OLD MACHINES COME BACK TO LIFE.😋
You guys are incredible... like Jurassic Park, you bring back hulking dinosaurs to life ! Love It. Great scenery and banter
Hunter and Alan not only look alike but work the same. Both kick ass and do mind getting there hands dirty.
So awesome getting these old machines up n going after so many years
What an awesome team u have. Great mechanics.
Can’t wait guys
Subscribed a couple of days ago binge watching your vids awesome bunch of guys with great hearts 👍❤️👌
you guys are crazy 🤣🤣 love watching, I use to run skeester and army trucks w/ my husband, yeah im a lady, but I love all the big and crazy things you do to each other, I wish you could meet my husband he's really spectacular then a lot of work manual labor a lot of big toys like you guy.s., dynamiting.. and lots of stone..
Smokey the bear would have a heart attack if he saw the black smoke of the kobelco.
Stuck injector I bet
He'd probably have a bud light a listen to kid rock! U.S.A.
I love the sound of a screaming Jimmy. All the old iron is truly cool. Thanks for taking us along for the ride.
Its amazing how mens can stay in the outdoors, no problem have fun so simple no drama 🤣🤣🤣 a group of women the story will be a little different 😂
Im not sure anyone else notices but I absolutely love the sound effects that are added to the little things for instance the squishing of the paper plate by excavator tracks LMAO. The little details in your vids are what adds that little extra to your content! Keep up the great work fellas!
The amount of stones inside Alan would stop a mortal man :( Breaks my heart. Great guy !!
As in Kidney stones from all the pop he drinks?
I can fully sympathize, I've passed a Mason jar of stone's over the last thirty years and the bigger ones are no joke.
@@RobertBrauntheMan absolutely :(
He really is a great guy! Such a lovely guy ❤️
Turned his peepee Into a cannon
It’s amazing to watch u guys working together putting all your knowledge together and being able to start anything no matter how long it’s sat out in nature unused
I enjoy watching Alan work. I grew up in northwest Montana with ranchers and loggers; he reminds me of those men: get what needs to be done with what you have on hand: just make it happen. Diesel Dave personifies the ethic I learned from them too. These guys, Hunter and the rest of the team make a dynamic crew…about the only men who can keep up with Heavy D and his drive. “Heavy” D: Driven Dave the Dreamer and Dynamic-Leader (I couldn’t come up with an appropriate D word for a strong leader without negative connotation like Dominion or such, because from what I see and people who I know who know him, he is not that way. A fellow Utah resident, we cross paths occasionally.
My favorite story is my daughter was working in a Maverick gas station and the Sparks crew stopped for fuel; coming from a big recovery job, a couple guys tracked dirt in the store and Dave got a broom and cleaned it up. ❤
Loved the music from both the engines went they got going from the same starer motor. You guys totally rock!
Thank you for all your teams hard work and sharing these experiences with us! It’s so cool to see this stuff (everything you do) nobody else on the internet does what you share with us. Thank you so much Dave! And crew! From Minnesota!
I’m new to your channel but remeber your tv series. I love that you guys are helping people and have been trying to watch all your old videos.
Absolutely love these old heavy equipment videos.
Makes my day watching these!!!
Thank you for what you guys do !!!
Heavy D your crew is bad to the bone man! Great to watch you guys get old machines rolling coal.. great video boyz!
Allan is totally wizard! Lol
17:05 When Diesel Dave goes Gonzo-Exultant? That's MY jam! :D WEEEE-HOO! Bring on Episode 3! (oh, and p.s.: that mobile 'Starlink' Internet system is certainly...interesting....

There's no end to what you guys can do. I want to be part of that.
Don't get scammed
How can I get Scammed ?
@@alexjeffs7092
@@watson4683 they talk like. heavy D and. End up asking for money. He NEVER ASKS FOR MONEY except when you order off his website
@@garycorbett148 they did for personal information don't give it to them. It makes it sad that when someone actually wins you never know
My 8 year old grandson loves your videos! He was diagnosed with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy three years ago. Anyway he is in a power wheelchair and after watching your videos decided he wanted his chair to be an excavator for Halloween.
I had a chuckle when you were talking about the internet speed. I live 3 miles outside a big city and my speed on a good day is only 10 mb and more often than not actually
its like "bar rescue" only outside, and youre saving nature
If my grandmother had wheels she'd be a bicycle
Hay thanks for all or vids been watching for the last 2 months back to back in bed with a bung kidney kept me spirits up so thank to all or crew or awesome favourite vids anything helping people in need and love dozers keep it up makes my day
I’d love to know what he does with all these. Does he fix them, clean them up, and sell them at action or what. I’ve seen several videos of him recovering big Iron but nothing on what he does after. Maybe a video run down of what happens afterward.
This is by far the best RUclips channel and show on all levels
Keep up the good work the quality is Optimum everything is fantastic what you guys do you guys are Master mechanics
Great job Dave and Crew!!! As someone already used the phrase “ your Team is an well oiled machine! “Great Team e we irk getting them old machines running again! 🤙😎
Great diesel mechanics they are!
You guys are AMAZING!!! I loved the sound effects of the paper plate sliding off the track and getting squashed!! 😝😏🫶🏻👌🏻👍🏻😎🤩
It’s always good when an old Diesel engine crank’s and runs.
plenty of smoke from the big boy. have to say I didn't think it would run but great work guys.
Run the Starlink on solar. It only draws 45 watts.
What size solar panel do you need for 50 watts? A 4x8 foot size?
@@sanfranciscobay 100watt panel about 22”x41” I believe..
@@davidmcpherson7451 I have a portable folding solar panel about 16"x16" and it puts out about 7 watts.
@@sanfranciscobay that’s only good for charging phones and such. 100 watt panel cheap as $100.
AWESOME VIDEO! I cannot get enough of this series and these episodes need to be longer! Thank you for taking us along and sharing the adventure.
Could that star link also run off solar? Still can't help being amazed by how talented you and your crew are about overcoming all the obstacles encountered and succeed! !
With enough panels, sure. How much "enough" is will depend heavilly on how much sun the area gets and whether you need to keep the system running overnight.
A couple 100W panels, charge controller, LiPo battery pack and a inverter. I build these for other network applications for firefighting, modular in pelican cases. Works amazing
Mine, which is the older model, uses around 100W. So yeah, running off solar is reasonable.
@@AdventureMachines screw lipos edison nickle batteries are way better. they are water based not acid based. so yes in theory u could use your owwn piss to jump start one of them.
@@nathandean1687 I should have been more specific; LiFePo. The nickel iron (NiFe) is a viable solution for a fixed installation, much less so as a mobile power storage solution. Also, the internal resistance makes the NiFe ~65% efficient when charging, wasting ~35% to heat. When charging with solar and looking for low weight and high efficiency this is a hard pill to swallow.
People in your team are amazing, I hope you are treating them the way they deserve! Respect!
Thanks guys.! I struggle with escaping all the terrible crap in the world these days and you guys ALWAYS help me unwind and relax.
Love the stuff guys please keep it comin.!!
Be good and have fun.!!
Don't watch the News and stay away from anything Political and you can live a Happy life.

Interesting , Thank You . I hope that you and you're team can make them all run good and find homes for them . Happy New Year
Spoiler Alert: EVERY “will it start?” … Starts!! 🤷🏻♂️
Go to your room
@@codygardner8625 🤣🤣
You guys are the best. I enjoy your videos, and everything that you do to help so many people. Not to mention a lot of the comedy.
"First" comments being the 5th or 20th is always funny to me.
1steenth!
56th
Best channel on the tubes!
That's a lot work, a bunch of inspections fuilds battery's an cleaning an trouble shooting, awesome content. My grandpa had 2 D6 CAT'S for many year's before trading out for Japan dozer unit's, CAT is very expensive when you need to service it at there shop, or have them bring out a maintenance truck. Awesome content.
It's the first time I noticed a sound effects like a pie falling off tracks is that new always something special to make me smile in your content
I've been on Starlink for over 1.5 years now. One of the first 10,000 beta users.
It's a life changer.
Alan is hilarious! I'm glad he's a part of the channel! Awesome video guys!
I could watch these videos all day. You guys got so serious skill with these old machines.
Alan is clearly in his element in this
Hey HeavyD and DieselD and the boy's. These heavy machine recoveries are the best
Keep doing these kind of episode's
