I’ve read some of the comments before I started mine and it’s the same message… get a Harbor Freight hoist… you’ll probably never need it for a car engine, and it’ll be perfect for your needs in your garage:) I’m 74 today! And I too disregarded other’s advice to” work smart, not hard”👍
Word from an old man who abused his back most of his life and now has a fused spine from 6 surgeries to repair the herniated disc from years of being stupid and lifting things I should of used a lift on or got help lifting heavy ackward parts. Invest a couple hundred dollars in a hydraulic hoist to lift things like this motor. You will get away lifting things you shouldn't sometimes for years but the accumulated damage will show up as you get older and I can tell you that I wished I'd listened when people told me what I'm telling you. I can guarantee you that you don't want my back or live with the pain that I'll have the rest of my life. Doctors can only fix so much and then you live with what they can't repair. Some day I hope you don't remember what I've told you and say I wish id listened to that old man.
@@william6526 @william, I second that suggestion. Also invest in a Roller Start to keep from messing up your feet, knees, ankles, family jewels.., when you are trying to kick start bikes that just don't want to cooperate. I had a big cam Husky that would rattle my gonads blue trying to start it, so I took some advice and spent $150 on a Roller Start, and still use it today. No more sore knees, legs, ankles, nut sac.., from kicking over bikes that refuse to start!
Well done again Joe, just one comment, Please get used to cleaning your motors down before working on them, it is not only better to work on but it will stop any accidental transfer of dirt and grit to mating surfaces on rebuild.
You continue to impress me...and this one was especially challenging! I've said it before...your workmanship, attention to detail, diagnostic skills, and sheer patience combine to make you a Class A++++ mechanic. There has to be a secret backstory to explain how you are so successful doing this work, yet not the regional vice president of operations for any one of a dozen major manufacturing companies. You have the right stuff and could/should easily be managing a team of a couple hundred mechanics...
Joe doesn’t want all this BS praise… he doesn’t clean stuff, he didn’t even wash out the ‘honed’ barrels with hot soapy water to remove all the fine metal particles lodged in the hone scratches. He’s an average mechanic, I’ve worked all my life the auto trade and I’ve seen really great techs with amazing attention to detail and I’ve seen some really lazy sloppy techs too. Joe is at the lower end of the scale.
I was thinking the same thing, he is next door to Polaris, Oshkosh automotive, and Harley. I'd prefer to see him have the freedom of running his own shop, or Teaching
I have had great respect for Joe's ability to tear down a motor and find problems, but I have new greater respect for his his ability to find and diagnose electrical issues. I just stare at bare and broken wires on used machines like a puppy?
I love watching you work, you really know what you’re doing. If I can share one idea, when pouring oil, flip the bottle over, it looks wrong but it will pour smoothly without the surge. Keep up the great work.
If I could find a deal like that , I would run with out the water pump. New head gasket and a 12Volt coolant pump with an on /off temperature switch. Call me lazy. You did GREAT job.
You know Joe, watching you struggle with this engine reminds me that you need an engine crane. I know that you don't need it everyday but when you do, it really helps with handling the weight of bot engine and transmission n ot to mention saving a finger or two if they get pinched and maybe your back.
leave the temp sensor for the fan in the circuit. Put your switch in too so if you want to cool the engine you can otherwise the sensor will turn the fan on.
My OCD is saying "Why isn't he cleaning up the grime off the parts before or after putting them together!", but I'm saying "Probably because he's just flipping these machines and the next owner can deal with cleaning it, because the goal is to get a running machine then sell it", you do an amazing job and the information is invaluable!

Great job Joe but a word to the wise take some of your profits and by an engine hoist or overhead crane “ WORK SMARTER NOT HARDER “ I love your videos and the knowledge you share thanks !!!
Great job on the diagnosing and the repairs. Watching your channel really gives me the confidence to make my own repairs. Very interesting and informative. Enjoy the rest of your weekend.
Another great video. Just one small point. When you’re honing your cylinders, use the lowest speed on your drill. You’re looking for a 45° cross hatch on the cylinder walls. 🙂
Putting the piston in the cylinder first will save you a lot of headaches…it’s much easier to install the wrist pin at that stage rather than trying to compress the rings individually by hand
Don't mind the plastic but I would change every other plastic gears and guide after that amount of heat, they could become brittle and break after x amount of hours running. No big deal to change while the thing is open. But then again I would not feel comfortable using the whole thing, How hot dit the crank get and the rod bearings?
nice job! You should have hooked up the fan switch in parallel with the temp sensor so both would still work in case you forget to turn the fan on manually.
I also agree with not bypassing the temp sensor/thermistor with a switch. All it takes is forgetting to turn it on and you are back at square one doing head gaskets again. Hopefully the temp limit switch is separate so the light comes on when it gets hot 😮
@LivingNed Yes, he left it in. He also cut the wires to wire the fan to a dash switch. The fan stays on because the sensor is bad. Have an atv in the garage right now that needs a new sensor. Reasonably priced at $128 🙄
Joe I like your videos a lot. I think your one of the best mechanics on the net but I don't understand you not pressure washing stuff before you work on them.
I know that was a faux pas with the radiator cap that first day. I work at a gas station at 1516 years old and they told me to take a handful of shop rags. I don't think I've ever done in any other way without a shop rag on it or a towel hot or cold. Just kind of ingrained in my brain. Learned a lot of things working at a gas station🎉 like a battery will explode like a bomb if you leave it long enough on a commercial charger almost killed my boss😮
As hot as that got, I was worried a minute their the heads warped,. Definitely something to check in the future before you put heads back on. Just need a nice flat surface and feeler gauges.
Hi fella,it's interesting watching you in action.There's a lifting hoist type of thing they use in old folk's homes too lift them out of chairs and beds, it's compact and smaller than a cheery picker and might just save your back! Because your back at your age in good shape is priceless ! Keep up the Great video's .From michael in Tennessee !;-)
Man you got some patience !!! Great video you inspire us all to get the spanner’s out and take something apart 👍 but then we have to take it to the shop to be put back together ✌️ from 🇬🇧
This was a big job... but I'm surprised you didn't replace the other chain guide, even though the other one looked fine. Especially when it looks like they just pull out and you already had another one. Seems like it would have given you a little peace of mind.
Not trying or wanting to sound like a know it all but when I put my jug on I’ve found it easier to put the piston in it first and then put the combo of the piston and jug on together. Just makes it easier about getting the rings in or at least it does for myself. Hopefully that helps out, anyway another good video keep it up.
You should have gotten one your brothers to help you lift the motor. I put an electric hoist in from harbor freight. Put it on a slide rail so I can slide stuff into place. Another great video
I was a little concerned that you didn't check the heads for warping, you can use a small piece of glass.( I use a mirror) down on a flat surface and a 0.001 gauge, so you can go around the edge checking for gaps. that was a lot of heat that motor endured. Heads usually take a beating with extreme heat..seems to be running fine for now. good job
Hi, great videos I have been watching you for at least 6 months now. love all your videos. I guess you sell some of your stuff that you repair that you don't want otherwise you would have and massive load of stuff or you have a massive collection keep up the great videos thoroughly enjoy
@2vintage Joe - Aft piston went in backwards... I definitely agree with the comments about putting thermostats back in... I don't think putting a fan switch is a good repair - troubleshoot and fix the system to ensure it works as it should and maintains the proper operating temperature.
These machines were faulty from the factory. I have read all the forums on them. Everyone has the same overheating issue. They all overheat if you do not have the fan constantly going.
@@2vintage It's a pretty simple and basic system. The temp sensor trips the switch. If you have it a manual switch... what happens when someone gets in and forgets to turn it on? ...then the person doesn't realize it until the temp light comes on. I read some comments on the poor quality stock fan. That's not difficult to resolve. Put in a good quality aftermarket fan... and done. ...but what are you going to about the piston you put in backwards. You stated and installed both pistons arrows toward the front. Arrow should be pointed toward the exhaust. The piston arrow on #1 should have been pointed aft toward the exhaust port. The #2 piston is oriented correctly with the arrow forward toward the exhaust. Definitely put thermostats back in. otherwise the machine will be running to rich for too long. Additionally, if its run frequently for short distances it will probably foul out the plugs. Also... don't forget to drain out that water and put in coolant before we get freezing whether...
@@MrRobsStuff Not sure what you heard but he said "the first cylinder (which i'm pretty sure he meant #2) pointed toward the front of the machine, cylinder 1 toward the back of the machine" at 18:27
@@gametime2473 if you listen to what he says at about 19:00, he says both pistons will point towards the front. Then if you look at the footage around 29:00, you will see the arrow on the piston is pointing toward the intake (or up in this case).
Some of those side by sides have a limiter that won’t let it run full speed if the seat belt is not connected, my buddy hooked his together and put them behind the seats 👍🏼
Speaking from a healthcare perspective I wish you would wear gloves more often when handling those oils, gasket making chemicals, etc. The skin is the largest organ of the body and will absorb that stuff sending it to your kidneys and or liver to be metabolized. May not seem like it's doing much now but down the road it could get you. Hope you don't take any offense just love watching you fix these machines and want to see you keep at it as long as possible.

@@jerrywilcox9890 U work for free? That would b over 5 grand in labor at a shop and the thing would b clean. If somebody was telling me this engine was just gone thru i would walk away seen enough
Good worrk you are an amazing mechanic. My guess is to save money the manufactures put plastic gears in the builds. You then they get unreliable machines and they get to sell more over priced plastic parts. Tempory reliable machine. Oh well it keeps you busy. Yes it keeps you on your toes. If a guy had a CNC machine he could turn out alluminum parts to replace them with and they would last lot longer. Now these plastic machines are on the street legal? Wow Very dangerous. I guess motor cycles are too. Its the risk you take. My dad was a fireman he went out on rescues. He said us boys my brother and I were not allowed to ride our bikes on the street He said they wreck, slide on the pavement, and break there heads open on the curb. His words do you know what it looks like to see someone take there last breath.
Remember considering these when they 1st came out, seemed like a lot of machine for the money but with no dealer support I instead bought a Cub Cadet Volunteer UTV that wound up being a big disappointment, Cub Cadet then dropped that line a and started selling Massimo with their name on it, after a few years of nothing but issues with them they dropped that line also. Now have a 2023 Can Am 850 Outlander so far so good other than the battery only lasted less a year and the dealer wouldn't cover it under warrantee, really wish you were near by.
My father bought the same UTV new back in 2014 I believe. At about 800-900 miles the nylon gears broke on his too. He had it fixed and sold it around 2017 and bought an off road golf cart instead.
Joe, how come during the rebuild process you never clean the outside of the parts you are rebuilding? I thought that rebuild meant clean as well. That transmission was pretty dirty as was the engine itself
I have a hard time watching this channel. You always inspire me to go work on the junk I have lol and thank you! Watching your videos has given me enough knowledge to diagnose and fix this crappy Chinese bike for my friends son… now if they would come get it so it’s not taking up space lol
Once again a fantastic informative & enjoyable video. Fyi, please take care of your back as we all look forward to your videos. Thank you. Ken, c/- Ballina,New South Wales, Australia
Should really consider cleaning the engine before opening it up. Im sure it got some of that debris inside it upon being put back together. Its like a surgeon coming in with bare hands and all sorts of dirt and oil under his fingernails.
Well done, as usual. I always wonder why you haven't set up an Amazon Wish list. I'm sure many folks would be willing to pop for some oil, anti-freeze, chemicals, spray paint etc.
Joe, you need an engine hoist. Take it from someone who was built like you, now 64 y/o, you are going to have back issues and high probability of hernia(s). I had 3 hernias repaired some years ago. Why only rupture 1? 🤷♂️😂 That said, great video series. And I haven’t even finished this one. 👍
It must've been a really good feeling getting rid of that spluttering, sure you must've almost blown an o ring, phew 😄I doubt anyone else would have got it going again, great video.👍
Hi another gr8 video and a gr8 fix. Just 2 little points to note: 1. whilst you were driving an orange light came on? and 2. It still doesn't sound very clean although not really sure what's causing this? (maybe just needs using a bit and will clear by itself?). (From an ex mechanic) Oh and I agree with @William6526 you might invest in a engine hoist cos maybe ok now but later in life you might regret it! Anyway nuff said and keep making these gr8 vids.......😁😃

Now have a 2023 Can Am 850 Outlander so far so good other than the battery only lasted less a year and the dealer wouldn't cover it under warrantee, really wish you were near by.
Great job Joe, always good watching a style
Keep up the grinding congrats 🎉 that one scared me and I wasn’t tearing it down but end up worth it keep us entertained and motivated my respects 💯
Like how you take your time and do it right and tell us what the parts are and what they do good job 👍
Great job Joe. Love watching.
I can just imagine the pain if u get ur fingers pinched in between frame n engine trying to remove or install lol, good job as always joe
Nice Job Sir. That is a talent no one can ever take from you and you just made some good money!!!
My father bought the same UTV new back in 2014 I believe. At about 800-900 miles the nylon gears broke on his too. He had it fixed and sold it around 2017 and bought an off road golf cart instead.
It is a fine Sunday when I get to see Joe in the zone Wrenching away first thing in the morning 😊😊
Great job!!!
Sounds really good.... that was alot of work..
I love the recaps! What a beast of a project this one was. 🛠
I would def be using some assembly lube on all those gears and stuff
Joe, how come during the rebuild process you never clean the outside of the parts you are rebuilding? I thought that rebuild meant clean as well. That transmission was pretty dirty as was the engine itself
Nice Job Joe!!! This one goes into the W column if we're not counting total labor costs!!! Good job..... but we miss Vinny man!!!! Haha!!! We do!!!!
Really enjoy your vlog. I was wondering why you don’t clean the outside of the engines you work on?
I have a hard time watching this channel. You always inspire me to go work on the junk I have lol and thank you! Watching your videos has given me enough knowledge to diagnose and fix this crappy Chinese bike for my friends son… now if they would come get it so it’s not taking up space lol
2V, after a ton of work another one goes to the win column, Congrats!
Once again a fantastic informative & enjoyable video.
Fyi, please take care of your back as we all look forward to your videos.
Thank you.

Well done Joe!
Time for a chain hoist? Love the channel!
Should really consider cleaning the engine before opening it up. Im sure it got some of that debris inside it upon being put back together. Its like a surgeon coming in with bare hands and all sorts of dirt and oil under his fingernails.
Great find n you got a bargain n you fixed it as usual your mechanical skills
Thank you, love the ENGINE OUT videos, at my age so much easier to work on vs bending, stooping, banging knuckles
Well done, as usual. I always wonder why you haven't set up an Amazon Wish list. I'm sure many folks would be willing to pop for some oil, anti-freeze, chemicals, spray paint etc.
The way you have to line up that slot when you slide the case on. Who made up that hokey design lol
do a garage tour mate from australia love the vids 🇦🇺
I bet you’re glad that engine doesn’t need to come out again, nice one again!!👍👍
Joe, you need an engine hoist. Take it from someone who was built like you, now 64 y/o, you are going to have back issues and high probability of hernia(s). I had 3 hernias repaired some years ago. Why only rupture 1? 🤷♂️😂
That said, great video series. And I haven’t even finished this one. 👍
He seems to have an aversion to using a bench vise, too. 😂
I'm surprised he don't have a bike lift,would be so much easier on the body.
I've had one hernia going on two at age 42. I'm with you
"Alligator Clip" in the 1960s/70s was AKA, a roach clip.😜
Crocodile clip where I am.
It must've been a really good feeling getting rid of that spluttering, sure you must've almost blown an o ring, phew 😄I doubt anyone else would have got it going again, great video.👍
Detailing YT'ers: today we're going to show 20 different coatings for plastics
2vintage: WD40 is my coating of choice!
Why didn't you pressure washer before installing it?So you can check for oil leaks easier
Hi another gr8 video and a gr8 fix. Just 2 little points to note: 1. whilst you were driving an orange light came on? and 2. It still doesn't sound very clean although not really sure what's causing this? (maybe just needs using a bit and will clear by itself?). (From an ex mechanic) Oh and I agree with @William6526 you might invest in a engine hoist cos maybe ok now but later in life you might regret it! Anyway nuff said and keep making these gr8 vids.......😁😃
You have to get a Chain pulley, hanging from your ceiling, to save your poor back !!! it is a Must !! Go to Harbour Freight, and attach it into your ceiling post, stad, truss, whatever it is ;o) you'll be a happy man, and your Back Thank You!!!
Nice, this was a great series.
Genius, no doubt. Enjoyed it. Thank you.
you need to invest in a ceiling hoist......will be better for you and easier to put engines back in and take out! spend the cash, save your back!
