@@WatchWesWork Your explanation was more than clear. I don't know much about diesels but you improved my understanding of them considerably. Thanks for an again instructive and at the same time entertaining video! And the interaction between you and your dad is awesome! Greetings from far away Switzerland.
Holly Mooly Wes, your son is growing like a weed. Wasn't long ago he was getting around on his little tricycle. You and your Dad make a great team. You're lucky that pump was way simpler than Matt Diesel Creek's was. Ya saved some serious cash being able to get it working correctly. Thanks for the excellent entertainment while I'm sitting in a hospital bed recovering from stomach surgery. Hopefully I'm going home tomorrow.
I love this too. I didn't spend enough time with my dad. He passed several years ago. He was smart wth many diciplines. Self taught and family taught by relatives in many things.
Wes - I lost my dad to cancer almost 17 years ago. Spend every moment you can with your father. There will come a day he won’t be there anymore. I miss mine so much. The videos with you and dad are my favorites. Thank you for sharing this with us.
Wes, you are so blessed to have such a wonderful relationship with your Dad. I lost mine at age 13, I am 62 now and miss him every day!! Greetings from South Africa.
Wes, In so many ways, your dad reminds me of mine. In about '77 my dad put a Perkins in a '72 Plymouth Duster. He drove it until about '84 when he put another Perkins into an '81 AMC Spirit with a 5 speed manual from a Pinto. He drove that until he died in '02. Every minute with the 'Ol Man' is precious. Treasure them.
@@geesss8675 You're not even giving them any benefit for what they have seen in their life. You need to just go away if all you can do is make negative comments.
My brother, now in his mid sixties, Has been a heavy vehicle mechanic since he left school and he admits that diesel injection pumps run on magic and no one honestly knows how and why they work. You just put them together the way the manufacturer tells you in the service manual and don't ask any questions.
@@WatchWesWork I have pulled a few transmissions apart, but had no idea how to put them back together. So many parts that look the same!! Unlike a manual there seems to be no logic in an automatic.
After you had corrected the cam ring, your dad did the arms in the air, "Yeah!". This reminds me of my dad when we completed a repair. You're luck to have him around. I lost my dad in 2020 to c19. I miss him every day.
yeah i know how that goes. My dad passed in january. sucks knowing hes gone and there's no other man in the world who wanted me to do better than he did.
@@WatchWesWork usually because they never do a proper regular maintenance on said machine until it breaks down and costs them thousands to repair instead of the 50 dollar oil and fluid changes lol
I got a vehicle for a demo derby that had been “parked for 6 months.” The oil change date was 5 years in the past. All it needed was a jump start and tires though, probably could’ve been a daily driver.
I've said it before, but it needs saying again. I love these videos with your Dad. He's such a cool dude, and you can tell he has an encyclopedia's worth of knowledge about these engines. You all work well together on camera. Hope to see more in the future!
Listening to you and your dad work together on this reminds me so much of working with my dad on projects. Enjoy the time you've got because time is a cruel mistress.
Wes at 80 years old still have great memories of working on the farm with my dad - cherish every moment you have with him - having your son there with you makes the scene complete - God Bless !!
Even if it did not work? A Bad day working with your Father is better than anything else sir. Wish I still could, thank you again for taking us along sir.
@WatchWesWork Well, it looked like 2 big brains working together. Cause I'm not a diesel mechanic, so it's all new to me. Loving Watch Wes Work and family.
It's cool that you and you dad were able to get it running so well! He did a great job of raising you!! Oh, I liked you comment to your son about gravity!!
Hi Wes, Gee has your son grown! You and your dad work so well together. That's a tribute to your love and respect. The solution to your problem is gunk in the fuel system due to Biodiesel.
A project, animation, a gas tank on roof and 3 generations of Wes’ family all in one video. 👍 Perfect start to a Sunday. I wonder if Area Diesel was watching as you rebuilt it?
Watching this reminds me of times spent with my own dad who I lost pretty early in life. So much knowledge lost. Glad you two get along so well in each others work spaces, and can get together on projects like this. His enthusiasm when it started the final time is infectious and I found myself cheering your success.
"Turn over the cam ring, and lick our wounds!"No more smoke signals in Illinois.Perkins engine! I lost my dad in '62 when i was in diapers.Kinda wish i knew him.He was a good soldier in fourth armored ww2.
Heard a crisis counselor and support staff were called to ADS just after this was posted; you know anything about that? Watching Dad go haring down the road with the rig bouncing and the fuel situation fraught was pure entertainment wrapped around that hard kernel of learning. Another fine piece, saved this for dessert after dinner, did not disappoint.
Thanks Wes and of course Father of Wes. Hearing the simple thoughts of your young son made me chuckle. “I wonder what happens to those possums?” Curiously observing and learning. What a healthy wholesome childhood.
I’m sure you aware of this but I gotta say it, you are truly lucky to have this time with your Dad. I’m in Texas, my Dad is retired In Florida. I would do anything To work with father, especially doing something you both “enjoy” lol keep up the good work Wes. I really enjoy your videos.
I like watching you work with your dad. I lost my dad 14 years ago, and we didn't have a chance to work together the last few years of his life. Now I try to make opportunities to work with my son...
I knew an old mechanic that also ran a car lot. I went to look at an old car there when I was 16 and it, as you say "Smoked like a freight train". In true sketchy salesman-ese told me that was a good thing as you will never be bothered by mosquitoes! I thought your Dad said that in there somewhere as well and I grinned at the memory.
It was awesome to see you and your Dad work together. Your animation of the moving parts really sold it for me when you two took apart the actual part and I could relate to how it's supposed to work as to the mess it was. And then you cleaned and fixed it. With it installed and the tractor running back to normal was epic. Seeing your Dad zooming down the road with a smile on his face, and when he came back in, is one for the family history books. Wes you're new school technology and your father's just knowing was fun to watch.
As a Brit of a certain age I'm reasonably well versed with the Lucas CAV pump. It always amazes me exactly how robust the old pumps are- nothing more than a clean and correct assembly and away you go... You'd be in it for $$$$'s if it were a modern high pressure system.. Great content- as always! Thanks!
We have a MF 135 multi power 1967 and it is still running. It had a very hard life. The Perkins engine was a very reliable engine. The Coventry (England) built Masseys were known to be very reliable. The problem is people don’t respect the equipment and feed them crap and treat them terribly and then respect them to work perfectly.
I enjoyed watching your Dad ask questions like, "What are we going to do if it runs away?" VERY important. You didn't seem like you were listening. Also, after the fix he said, "Do we have any leaks?" and started to check while you admired your pump rebuild. Get in there and show your Pop you know how to stay focused and see the job through!
Your dad is so proud of you just like I am when my son helps me out. That tractor looks almost cartoonish when it takes off down the road. Cheers, Stuart 🇦🇺
He definitely raised a mechanical wizard. Wes has to be one of the most versatile mechanics on RUclips. I used to think it was Mustie1 but I think Wes has surpassed him in recent years.
Cherish these times working with your Dad. You guys make a good team. My Dad passed 25 years ago and I'd kill to work with him again. Sadly, it seems like a lot of young male adults in their 20s and 30's today simply don't value their fathers or want to spend much time with them. Unlike previous generations. It's always amazing how letting mechanical things sit for extended periods of time breaks them. It was very satisfying to see what a little time and effort did in returning that engine to running correctly. Well done.
Love your work and your videos, Wes! It's great to see father and son together in action, I've enjoyed working with my father very much and long for it now he's gone.
That video brings back great memories of rebuilding our airplane with my dad. We had so many great times out in the garage together. He passed at 95 years old back in 2016. I still recall those memories every time I am out in the garage turning wrenches. Time with your father is prescious. Enjoy it.
Some of my best memories as a kid are working on old junk cars with my uncles. Now I’m an industrial field service dude working on multi million dollar pieces of equipment. I still have a soft spot in my heart for old rusty stuff
17:34 Wes rushing his dad when he was trying to come up with a game plan if the thing open throttled and just took off. 😂😂 Typical father son lingo. I love it.
I love watching you and your dad work together. I credit the time I spent growing up in the shop with my dad for me becoming an engineer, mechanic, and woodworker. I miss those days so much. Enjoy these days, spent with your dad, Wes.
I swear I learn something from your videos every time. My dad started me out on lawnmowers and showed me how to not fear taking something apart. "Usually" things can be put back together without to much trouble
I love watching you two work together. The tractor runs really well now. I lost my dad when I was 13 and I will be 59 July 1st. Treasure your time with your dad God Bless you Wes.
Nice if you can fiddle together with your dad. I still remember those days with my dad who was very interested in technical things. I'm missing this every day when working on fuel burning things, electrical and so on for than 30 years now
Your dad is a champ, Wes. He raised you well.
There's one video where Wes says "I needed a professional...so I called my dad". I thought that was cute.
Or Wes is aging him well.
I have watched many injection pumps being rebuilt on RUclips, and i never really understood how they worked until you explained it. Thanks!
I hope it was clear enough. They are still basically magic.
Same here.
@@WatchWesWork Your explanation was more than clear. I don't know much about diesels but you improved my understanding of them considerably.

The service manual also explains. Wes found it out too 😄
Man that voice over and animation of the injector pump needs to be seen by every student at every diesel mechanic school.
Watching you and your Dad work together is wonderful. Probably started when you were under 5
Intended to say the same.
I love this too. I didn't spend enough time with my dad. He passed several years ago. He was smart wth many diciplines. Self taught and family taught by relatives in many things.

Love the reaction when she fired up! Your dad just got 20 years younger 🤠👍
I don't really do much mechanic work. But I watch these YT videos and always enjoy the whoops and smiles at success.
YEAH, THAT ! 😂👍
Really enjoyed the way you and your dad work together. Don’t ever take that for granted, it is solid gold to be able to spend time together

Just got a little something in my eye while reading this comment, that's all.
Wes, you have just been upstaged by the man that knows you better he's a character 😂Wes well done regards from Scotland 🚜🇬🇧🇬🇧🏴⚙️
Best illustrated description of engine timing I’ve seen.
How do you know? Your projecting some kind of fairy tale fantasy on them. . . You have zero idea. . . But if it made you feel better. . .you go girl
@@geesss8675 how do I know its the best one I’ve seen? It’s because I know all of them that I have seen.
@@geesss8675 You're not even giving them any benefit for what they have seen in their life. You need to just go away if all you can do is make negative comments.
And is there a point to attacking someone's OPINION? Grow up.
3 generations of guys together fixing broken stuff...I love it! Would have made a nice Father's Day video!
Sweet work, getting the tractor working right and spending the day with the old man 🙂
You got that right!
Your peak combustion and peak compression explanation for advancing the timing of the engine was excellent.
My brother, now in his mid sixties, Has been a heavy vehicle mechanic since he left school and he admits that diesel injection pumps run on magic and no one honestly knows how and why they work.

Like a transmission.

@@parteibonzawell said!
"Ran when parked". Usually famous last words. 😂
I think it was true, but the "a few years" part never is.
Hi guys Good thing about that tractor. You wouldn’t have too many mosquitoes, wasp or bees around you lol from Australia
@@WatchWesWork And "Parked" is often just a term for "This is the exact spot it stopped running...and it is a mighty fine spot to park it."
@@WatchWesWork usually because they never do a proper regular maintenance on said machine until it breaks down and costs them thousands to repair instead of the 50 dollar oil and fluid changes lol

We got a shout-out and you got 'er started! That's a WIN-WIN! Great video Wes, we love seeing the generations working together!
Try not to cringe too much!
Even if it did not work? A Bad day working with your Father is better than anything else sir. Wish I still could, thank you again for taking us along sir.
I love how your videos never have a pointless intro. ❤ Straight to it!
I don't pad them.
It's nice to see 2 big brains working good together.
Uhh...
@WatchWesWork Well, it looked like 2 big brains working together. Cause I'm not a diesel mechanic, so it's all new to me. Loving Watch Wes Work and family.
It’s so wonderful watching you work on a project with your Dad. Treasure every moment.
Tractor repair success = Great!
Time spent with dad = Priceless!!!!
👍👍
Wes - please do more content with your dad. You guys are great together. And as I'm keenly aware, we don't have unlimited time with your parents
Always love when you and your dad get to work together.
As your dad drove off down the road, I had this vision of grandpa Munster in his hot rod the Dragula 😂
This gave me flashbacks to rebuilding the injection pump on my 1010. Crazy how complex those pumps are. Great job explaining too.
Yeah it's pretty much the same. I think Bosch and CAV licensed the design from Stanadyne.
It's cool that you and you dad were able to get it running so well! He did a great job of raising you!! Oh, I liked you comment to your son about gravity!!

I really enjoy these when you and your father work together .
Love the animated illustration. Reminds me of auto shop class in 1977. 👍
Two "real" Mechanics working together. Unbeatable!!!
"I'm tired of worrying about that". Truer words were never spoken.
"Turn over the cam ring, and lick our wounds!"No more smoke signals in Illinois.Perkins engine! I lost my dad in '62 when i was in diapers.Kinda wish i knew him.He was a good soldier in fourth armored ww2.
There is nothing like that feeling of triumph after a repair like that. Good job guys.

Nice to see father and son work together
The police stopped my mom because her old car was smoking. She told the officer that it was 19years old so it was old enough to smoke.
Just play the old used car dealership trick of filling it with the heaviest weight oil so it passes inspection.
Nice
You playing here all week? Two drink minimum?
I’m going to use a variation of that joke for some of my older engines
@@walterrobbins4470Me too!!!
