  • First tractor that broke down in the field for Spring 2024 and it turned out to be a good one! Water pump totally grenaded and sent metal into the cooling system. Will have to replaced the EGR cooler, thermostat, and flush the entire cooling system to make sure all the contamination is removed.

    I understand that completely..

I work on the red ones, but same battles man... I really like your videos man, keep up the great work!

    Unusual for a water pump to grenade so severely. You did a great job to insure no large metal pieces would circulate in the system. I was amazed to see how difficult access to the EGR is. Ouch! Your patience is impressive! A job well done.

  • @heatherkohlwey8379

    You really go the extra mile to make sure a job is done right. I really believe that those that engineer machinery should work with a mechanic before they are allowed to design anything. My commentary would not be fit for sensitive ears. Yours is awesome. You still must have had other things running through your head. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and doing a great job. Stay safe, and God bless.

    • @BeingMe23

    In regards to that water pump that gave up the ghost. I had a service call a few years ago, where the customer wanted me to check out his trailed sprayer because of some steering issues. I needed a tracor in front of it to actuate the hydraulics, so he hooked the sprayer up to an old 700 series fendt. An hour drive later, I was giving it a once over and started to diagnose the issue. I said to the guy that I need him to turn the wheels so I could see if they are turning in manual mode. As soon as he started up his old fendt, there was a loud squeal, followed by a violent bang. The water pump decided to give up, so the fan cut straight into the radiator and sprayed coolant everywhere. The shroud was broken too. The customer is from the southern part of Estonia, which is kinda like your southerner hillbilly´s(I meant that in a good way). You know how they have their own dialect and set of words for certain things. I heard all his special words after that. We also had a good laugh with him because I was there for less than 15 minutes. And had to come back a month later, after he got it fixed.
    I bet your calves like the workout, while you climb those tracks, haha.
    Also, thank you for showing off your tools. It reminds me that I need to get a small prybar myself.
    Cheers mate!

    Thanks for another great video ZK.
    It was super interesting and informative and enjoyable.
    Wow. You had a lot of tough work on this one. Appreciate the fact you back flushed all those areas to make sure the metal shavings were out of there and not in the block. The AGR cooler was tough to get out and I feel you did the right thing by replacing it. Perfect place for metal pieces to hide. Smart move to replace it, s although it was hard to remove and replace. Good work ZK.
    My compliments to you for your fine narrative- - I would have been kicking the tires and cussing up a storm.
    You kept telling us what you were doing and what the next step was very calmly. Fine work and language ZK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    Wow. Just to replace the water pump and back flush the system is a lot of hard work for you ZK and pieces to replace and test and whatever. You did it all on this one.
    The farmer should be happy he had you for the repair work. You protected his engine and made sure it was ready.
    His bill may scare him but his tractor is ready to work again.
    You did a great job here ZK. I learned a lot. Thanks for sharing with us on a tough job.
    You take care and be safe.
    The Iowa farm boy. Steve.
    Note. You did not fall off the tracks even once-yeah!!!!!
    Good job ZK.
    Those tracks are hard to climb on and off of.
    Nice work sir!!!!!!!

    Sometimes I would love to make the engineers do repairs and see them getting annoyed because of themselves. Like on our tractor there is a coolant line(i guess) that's right in front of the engine air filter. It's a joy to put the cover back on it.

    You certainly do extremely thorough work . After finding all the impeller pieces it would have been ok to replace the water pump . Those tiny flakes of debris would just settle in the block .I doubt they would have jammed the thermostat open or done any damage.

    I can tell you what 13mm deep socket does to water pump impeller on ISX 15L Cummins. They had replaced radiator and water pump at different shop. That tech lost his 13mm deep Matco impact socket that went into lower rad hose. (remember put something over hose) You wouldn't think water pump could pull fluid that hard. It pull socket back and up one foot into impeller. I'm fishing around with magnet getting pieces of impeller and a socket. Really didn't hurt socket only slight ding.
