A lot of people saying the title is clickbait need to watch all the way till the end 🤦🏼♂️
Matt, No “DC” has ever been click bait. 🇬🇧
nice video, if you run into an annoying to fit fanbelt again, try a link belt, worked for years on an old cat dozer we had
Oh that doesn't look happy Matt. I hope it doesn't set the building schedule back too much.
I like the titles :)
Hi, I don't know if anyone has said it yet, but bees look for a place to build their hive or even just a small nest in the case of wild bees. I currently have a nest in one of my lugnuts on a project car.
The fact that the guy knew the starter was janky for 11 years and did nothing say's to me that lots of other maintenance may have fallen through the cracks as well.
I agree. Who puts up with a malfunction like that unless they never use the machine at all.
Dan when I got my 1971 SeaGrave Fire Engine for restoration. The place I got it from. I got all the maintenance Records from when the FD got it. It was neat looking through the past maintenance. The shop guys did maintenance on the Engine all the time. Did have transmission overhauled after I got it. But HAY it was a clutch that from record never had had any issues before me. The clutch was just ready for a overhaul. That clutch going for 40+ year's. There's a grease fitting in middle the owner of shop who did overhaul, said for me not to grease her all the time. That was part of problems it got to much grease, got grease in areas of clutch to gum it up. He told me how to and when to grease that fitting. Very little.
@@TractorWrangler01 because it still works.
@@TractorWrangler01 It's way too easy to just run it into the ground. Ironic.
@@rp1645 well Mr rest in piece he was told the starter was what was the word JANKY not my words so would that not say that who ever owned it knew of it and just left it think of what you have written you knew nothing of your prob HE did
I think all used construction equipment is only serviced when it's bought or sold.
You’d be right for some peoples stuff
Ha ha 😂
Exactly
going by the rending screams coming from the excavator on the massive building site im forced to live next to, I dont think they know how to use grease properly either, if at all.
Only if the owner is dumb Maintenance is the only hope/safety net a machine has from day one, you earn more if you do good service from day one
20 plus years ago my then young son’s daycare had some construction work going on next door on an empty lot. One day I picked him up after 5:00, and for the next 30 minutes we watched construction equipment do it’s thing. The one piece of equipment that my son was fascinated with was the “sheeps foot roller” (I had to interrupt some man’s work that day just to ask him what piece of equipment he was operating). This man was also nice enough to offer to let my son ride on his lap for just a few minutes while he rolled around the site on that thing. My son was so excited and he remembers that experience to this day. Thanks for bringing back that memory.
That's cool that your son got that experience. I doubt today's insurance laws would allow such a thing to happen, and definitely not OSHA. OSHA probably outlawed it back then too, but a jobsite probably wasn't expecting a visit from any inspectors after 5pm.
That is a great story. I grew up fascinated with heavy equipment and could watch them all day. Now I own a small excavation company doing just what I dreamed of when I was little. Pretty often I have little kids watching me from the street and I always go up and tell them you can sit in the equipment if you would like. I would of loved to have that opportunity when I was little and I am sure they will all remember that experience.
wholesome, i used to be fascinated by equipment and even like driving our tractor around, its got a bucket so thats always fun to mess with. i grew up mowing our field with an old ford jubilee tractor from the 50's i think it was, ran like a champ, i miss that tractor, we have a similar one in our field i got running but she needs work. i still remember using that tractor when i was 7 or 8, i also remember sitting on the fenders with my grandpa when he mowed with it, i would love to relive some of those memories
That's awesome :) When I was young I got a ride in the bucket of a digger. Guy seemed to know my friend. Lifted the bucket with me in it, and made the digger into a slow merry-go-round. Of course, when my friend was in the bucket, he stopped and dipped it into a pool of water :-P

The installation instruction of the new starter probably called for grounding of the starter. So dropping it is A-OK.
underrated
Nice One
Exactly where my mind went as well, 😄 You beat me to the comments.
I C what you did there ;)
The one thing I love about your channel is you don’t edit out the mistakes or fails. Working on equipment is never easy at it seems and you bring that Human aspect to it.
It's nice that he can laugh and we can have a chuckle too. " it's actually in the manual you have to drop the starter on the ground before you install it" 😅
When he falls back as the oil pours out is priceless!
QPl
The mill wrights at the place I worked for 37 yrs, used “never seize” on just about every nut and bolt they touched.and over time, it paid off.
we used never seize on every bolt and pin we worked on, saves a lot of headaches
So everything and everyone was covered in it right? I cant take the lid off mine without getting covered in it. 😄
@@Familyfleet yep. Amazing stuff the way it seems to jump to all kinds of places.
@@777poco yep. Most of my electricians tools had some on them because we used it at every union on the aluminum conduit.
Good stuff! Thread lock is also great for preserving threads and keeping corrosion out.
As a former heavy equipment operator I can attest that our equipment was never serviced unless it broke.
Servicing equipment that is faulty but still works eats all the profit from a job. If you can keep it running until you sell it on or someone else takes your work, it eats all the profits from THIER job.
If it ain't broke don't fix it. Always been my motto!
You could get the mechanic to take a look at something if you bought him a case of beer on my worksite.
that's the south american way. oh no, wait. Have yet to find a complainer who takes the time to put together the numbers to prove that is better to maintenance than it is to let it break.
@@Debbiebabe69 Until the faulty equipment costs you a day or two of production and you are still on the hook for the wages and/or penalties, it happens eventually and I've seen companies pay out the nose for this kind of shortsightedness.
I'm a 76-year old retiree in West Palm Beach Florida and Diesel Creek is my new favorite channel. Being from up near Buffalo originally your snowy segments fill me with cold nostalgia. Looking good, Matt.
"I picked up a manual and have the wiring diagrams" compactor: "FOOLISH MORTAL, YOUR WIZARDY HAS NO POWER HERE! "
Matt is actually a LOT better at vehicle electrics than he pretends! But like a lot of mechanical guys he thinks knowing about such stuff is a bit "girlie" 😆!
@@hectorpascal Oh, I was more thinking "this thing has 40 years of hack job bubba wiring, no about of OEM documentation is going to help with that" lol
I don't know why i had to laugh when you dropped the starter, and then needed a smaller belt for the fan, but Eva came to mind. I can hear your wife from the video where she said, "you're setting me up for failure.". Then i picture her laughing knowing karma was gonna get you lol. The two of you are hilarious when working together. As a girl myself, i have worked on stuff since i was a kid, because my brother is a couple year's behind me, and most gen x kid's i know were free slave labor. I was also a tv remote, coffee maker, cook, house cleaner, lawn mower, mixed drink maker, along with the repair crew. It made me a hard worker in life, so at 51, i can't complain.
That's just a gravity assisted kinetic calibration. Its probably in the manual somewhere.
Sounds like a perfect wife! Your husband is lucky!
Matt: from my air cooled VW days I offer this suggestion: since you have TWo belt pulleys to operate the fan. I would fab a mount for the alternator so it runs off of one (or both) of the fan belts. That way if the charging light comes on in the cab, you know that either the alternator has blown something or you have blown a belt. The light comes on immediately if the alternator isn't running and if there is no fan action due to blown belt, it saves you a toasted engine. Even if the hot engine light circuit works, it comes on sometime after the belt failure, and after the engine is critically hot. A failed alternator light comes on immediately and is your "before the lock-up" early warning safeguard. I remember in my VW, the alternator light saved me an overheated toaster one day when the belt broke and I didn't hear anything amiss. Had it not been for that little light coming on I'd have lost my gutless-wonder death trap. Ben
Or you could built a little frame and mount one of those proximity switches with a wheel like a jockey wheel which runs off the back of the belt.
I like the way you explain technical things for people who ain´t dealing with heavy equipment.
The old guy I used to work for, would always put a 2nd belt on equipment that was extremely difficult to access.. He would just zip-tie the "spare belt" up out of the way so it wouldn't rub on anything.. Made it super easy for the next time.
Ya, no place to zip tie it to on here
@@DieselCreek does this machine have glow plugs ? If so I think one turns the key opposite to the on position for a few seconds , then start . Anyway all the best from England 🏴
@@robertkustos2931 If I remember correctly, only -W (indirect injection/precombustion) Deutz diesels of this vintage have glow plugs. They're necessary.
Check the top of the lift pump, that little disc is a filter screen housing and I’ve seen some super gummed up because not many people know what it is.
This is one of the first things to check on a new-to-you Deutz. Another is the injector pump oil level; they're manually oiled and many/most operators don't know that.
The Perkins-powered Cats frequently have a similar issue (4.4, 6.6, 7.1) where they will have an inline fuel screen that doesn't show up under the Filter GP breakdowns, only under Fuel Lines. I've seen on Excavators, Bulldozers, Wheel Loaders, etc where it has never been changed and is stove up with crud.
We considered the inner filter as the safety filter. When dirt is found in the inside filter we consider the primary filter as having failed. We then replace both filters. Only replace outer filter until one of them fails, at that point when inner filter has dust you know the outer one has failed.
@@samdunn7860 I agree. I’m always trying to convince others that blowing out the air filter is not worth it, unless you really need to have the machine operating and can’t get a new filter. But that’s only a temporary fix. Air filters are a lot cheaper than turbochargers, valve jobs, etc.
I've seen people not know their filters were jammed up like on the Detroit Diesel. The engine would lose power. Simple problems cause big problems.
You had me rolling on the floor laughing about the drop the starter comment. A professional comedian could not have done a better delivery. Had the same thing happen to me more times than I would like to admit. Love your get it done never quit attitude!
Glad you enjoyed it
@@DieselCreekit could be worse… you could be rebuilding a transmission with the gears sitting on a forklift’s forks (like a mechanic in Illinois…) 😉
Great video Matt! I'm always impressed with your ability to understand and fix problems on practically any piece of equipment. I would have never guessed an engine so powerful could be air-cooled! Very interesting.
With these deutz engines it’s important you keep the cylinders clean. I’ve you have an oil leak dust can fill the ribs on the cylinders!
Yep, I work for a company that's a dealer for numerous engine MFG's and Deutz is by far the worst engine we work on.
@@auriptide I haven’t had a lot of problems with deutz engines. I’ve you do your maintenance on them. Their pretty reliable!
Even if you got burned, you're still well ahead with the other purchases. Keep up the content mate.
I really enjoy watching how you fix the equipment. You explain it so well without swearing and carrying on. It is a breath of fresh air. Plus your ecological. I also like the land you are on.
Diesel Creek: people usually say they can't get back the time looking at a video; but I enjoyed every minute of this video; my father was an iron worker and I used to go on the job and was awed by how they run and the people who ran them. Thanks for the education.
Fix the warning light switch on the belt tensioner. Believe me, on those engines it is as important as the oil pressure switch. Ken Wheeler Narrowboat Services, Chester, England
My friends 1958 army water pump with an F4M514 has a belt tensioner kill switch on the fuel pump. If the belt breaks, it shuts off the fuel.
Need to try get a second belt on there those fans draw alot of hp. There are 2 temp sensors on all deutz motors. One goes to a hooter and the other goes to your dashboard. You need to make sure that the fins are clean so that there is proper airflow otherwise you get hot spots on the cylinders
This guy deutz for sure
And one sensor are on the belt tensioner.
Temperature Sensor 01173672 for Deutz 913 912 511 1011 2011
@@hansselin9131 And, that's the wrong tensioner--it needs two grooves for the two belts.
We had that engine in an Atlas Copco compressor. If I'm remembering correctly there is supposed to be a sensor on the belt tensioner that shuts the engine down if the belt breaks. Deutz guys correct me if I'm wrong.
24:05 Most of those machines are big and yellow - lika a giant sunflower. Maybe thats why bees like it so much 😆
Awesome video. I like the fact that you somewhat explain what and why you are doing things. I'm a trained but novice equipment operator. I will be doing stuff for myself in the future (retired veteran) so I'm looking to learn from others.
The Belts we used to fit on those Deutz, were a twin solid belt, and my boss used to get me to fit a spare one past that coupler and cable tie it to the pump frame and out of the way. so when one failed, another one ready to slip on, tensioner is meant to be twin belt. Also those dash panels are pretty useless, all i used to do is rig up that switch on the tensioner pulley to a car horn, a loud one. makes people look when thats going constant. lights on a dash mean nothing to most operators !!!
I love the car horn idea for those Deutz air cooled engines, water cooled engines boil over in a spectacular fashion with a bunch of steam.
We bought a tracked drill right a few years ago with that setup. It had no safety features at all when we got it so I had to rig one up. I ended up tying that switch into the solenoid for the pump, if the belt broke, it just shut the unit down right then and there. I know the guys who run it, and a light would for sure be ignored. A horn is a good idea though, but I was doing a shutdown system anyways so I just went that route.
@@--_DJ_-- Definitely a good way to go about it. I've set (some of) our equipment up to shut down on low oil pressure, broken fan belt, and if low coolant level is detected. For starting there's a momentary push-button override.
Great ideas in this thread, cheers folks!
Matt, your Deutz has a switch that will illuminate a light or sound an alarm when the fan belt breaks - you can see the switch that that tensioner pushes on if the belt breaks at around 23:20. Make sure that is working, it's a great indicator that a problem exists before the engine actually gets too hot!! Another thing about these Deutz engines, although they are commonly referred to as air cooled, they also heavily rely on the engine oil for cooling. They have an engine oil cooler that must absolutely be kept clean!!
Your right, I missed that switch in the video.
I came here as well to point that out
I can attest to that as well. We have an old Deutz 10006 tractor with exactly this same engine, and you gotta make sure the oil cooler is clean (it’s under the unclip and flip out cowling behind the fan), and clean the piston liner cooling fins regularly. Other than that they’re a great economical engine.
Nice to see this old gal run so smoothly. I've actually designed some parts for their modern equipment when I worked for BOMAG here in Germany a few years back. But these old machines are just build different. Very good Video. Keep it up 👍
Your video quality and subject matter and setting and videography are so perfect every time. Just perfection.
Should change out that single pulley for a double belt. Those air cooled fans can put a big load on those belts.
I love putting big loads on my fans
Needs a dual pulley idler wheel on the tensioner.
Make the 2xpulley bigger in diameter to shorten the belt and avoid friction on the frame
Ford pickups used to use double V-belts on the fan.
As a guy that has bought, rehabbed and used or re-sold a bit of equipment myself (tho on a MUCH smaller scale than you!) it does my heart good to see you FIX things whenever possible rather than patch and jury-rig.
I realy love the way you are dealing with the old machinery. Again a nice clip to watch
Hi Matt . From Victoria, Australia. Can't wait to see the new shop go up . keep up the good work.
Hey ! Hello ! What a nice surprise to see a Sunday video from Diesel Creek! Thumbs UP to you Matt!!
At the 35 minute mark, a diagnostic light bulb went off in my head. As I do nearly all of my property work on my own, there are things I just don't see and hear as the operator of the machine. When you wrote "can't hear that metal on metal sound in person..." I thought "Aha! I should video 30 minutes of hard work and varied movement on each unit". Thanks man! Love to see you work through things and get 'er done!
Watching this video took me back to my first job maintaining equipment for a construction company. I was19 and no clue what I was doing but learned fast lol. When you were changing those filters I was having flashbacks of dropping filters and taking oil baths haha. Now that I think about it, I'm pretty sure we had a Bomag compactor there may be a reason that filter scene gave me flashbacks haha.
Nice work Matt! Thanks for sharing!
Matt, the thing with the bees, we get here in the UK too, but usually early in Spring. I was told by an environmental scientist that it’s to do with the yellow colour of vehicle which is high up on the bees sight scale as flowers that contain the most pollen are a similar colour. Apparently the reason it happens most in spring is that the bees ‘learn’ that it’s not of any interest to them. Great channel.
Came to say same thing. Anything painted so it reflects UV light (mostly yellows) tell insects to expect to find food there.
Drove yellow delivery truck bees and hornets loved it..
We have about 20 different species of terrestrial (ground-dwelling) bees here in North America. They seek out holes to build into nests. That's why the worker bees are always out looking for crevices and the like.
Not so much burned as lightly grilled Matt. It hasn’t taken you long to get this machine repaired, serviced and running albeit with a couple of issues still to address. Just highlights your ability to get stuff going. Very enjoyable watching it happen 😊
Just wait it gets worse…..
I see what you mean! Matt, I am very much an end to end viewer but must have missed this bit today. Can’t wait till the next instalment 🤨
@@DieselCreek I saw at the end bit... Looks like the vibrating shaft (?) locked up the drum? Broken maybe? That happened on the smaller one aswell, right?
@@DieselCreek I was thinking you accidently grabbed a hot manifold when I read the title! I think maybe the next video should have had this title if it ended up having issues with the vibratory assembly. This video just showed normal maintenance.
Good to see you Matt and hopefully you and your family are doing well brother!
I appreciate your respect for the environment. I feel like most people would have left that oil spill right on the ground
Or at least not go to the extra trouble and expense of putting pig mats down around the potential splash zone.
The visiting bees in the springtime are scouts looking for a site to start a new colony, they often find that small holes / cracks lead into large void spaces (especially in trees and house walls) which are perfect places to start new hives. When an existing hive is ready to swarm (split 50/50), half the hive moves out so these new locations are an absolute necessity.
cool
There's 20 species of Terrestrial (ground dwelling) bees native to North America (the honey bee is a European import). They spend spring looking for new or larger colony locations just like the European bees do. It's amazing stuff. The scouts are typically just worker bees as are fairly innocuous, we humans are Just In The Way, buzz, buzz, buzz.
I've never seen any clickbait videos from you. Your honesty in showing the good and the bad, great repairs and mistakes, is one of the main reasons I watch your channel. NO BS!! As always, thanks for bringing us along! JW
Hey Matt, great to see you post merch to the UK 🇬🇧 keep up the great work mate
Great video, loved watching. Always great content. Thank you !
Good enough, that seems to be a lot of people's attitude with older equipment. They use it occasionally and let it sit most of the time, so if it will start and do what they want it's good enough. Like you said, it might be overkill for most of your jobs, but when you really need it, it will pay back more than you've invested.
seeing as the rental rate at United is $500 a day or $3,700 monthly for a machine that size, you can get the much smaller 47" 9.5 ton bomag for $320 / $2,000 .... id say he is in a win win situation. id be surprised if Matt looses any money on this thing when hes done with it.
Yeah I’m thinking of him using it to roller his long driveway.
@@scottcol23 especially with the absurd prices /working/equipment is selling for right now.
My wife and I live on 20 acres, I have a tractor, skid steer, '96 F350 diesel. I am an amateur mechanic with a varied career ranging from cancer research, LP gas, food production and IT. I am approaching 60 and I cannot tell you how much many of us appreciate you and so many of the videos you and other KZhead mechanics and tradesmen have. It is the best kind of schooling. One more reason if I had life to live over again, I would probably have considered a trade. You folks give us the courage to try things with less fear. Thanks
I've been trying to find a padfoot for a while now, youre exactly right when you say the world is crazy. Stupid small junk units are selling for absolute huge amounts. The metal on metal sound could be the cleaning shanks being loose. Also the hydraulic filter could be restricting for the vibrate. There could also be two settings for the vibration, the slow vibrations are good for wet materials, and fast vibrations are good for dry material
Had a Duetz on a drill rig I ran. The only way you could get it to start at anything under 40 was some ether. Also, it was fun to tell the new guys to check the coolant on the Duetz.
I worked on Bomags professionally for a number of years, and 2 things I spotted right off that are wrong. Belt tensioner pulley is supposed to be a double pulley. Drain pan is on incorrectly. It looks like you have a steering orbit valve leaking as well.
And why the roller has stucked now? There is a common failure?
Orbitrol steering units always leak at the shaft when they are left outside with no cover and rust works it's way below the dust seal then the pressure seal.
@@bigsmoke6189 Agreed. I just redid the seals on my underground haul truck's orbitrol.
Its a common problem with thode Aircooled Deutz engines that they eat the blowerbelts We have several wheelloaders with smaler Deutz Aircooled engines in it and they all eat up the belts every now and then. Only difference ,they dont wanna run after that happens,a safetyswitch prevents that
Yes, my friends 1958 ex army water pump has that too. You only know if a warning light works, if you dont see a warning when yo do know the engine is in distress... which defeats the purpose of a warning system. If your engine shuts off for no reason, you know its time to fix the safety system, thats ultimate failsafe 😉
That is a pretty nice locking compactor you have there! The starter motor on my 1952 Massey Harris tractor does the exact same thing that the one on your compactor did before. I have to agree that it is rather annoying to be trying to start something and all it does is make nasty grinding noises. Great video as usual!
the high/low vibration works by reversing the drum motor, there should be a solenoid valve operated by a switch to control direction
I've seen damage like that from a mismatched pinion to ring gear pitch. I normally say "open a can of worms" but, you have earned the use of "opening sack of snakes (probably poisonous)"
FYI…..I found a solution for keeping bees, hornets etc. from messing with equipment and storage buildings. I buy medicated ear tags from the local ag supply store. I hang them in storage areas and on equipment and they keep those pests away.
I've been using wasp spray and every Spring I just hit a few spots around the motor or where ever they try to build a nest. That seems to sour the area and they stay away. Mice don't like it much either.
My buddy and I watch you all the time. We are always buying and moving old equipment. We say that it's a Diesel Creek job. Love your content.
Good video Man. Reminds everyone that the first thing you do with any second hand vehicle you purchase is replace the engine & transmission oil as well as filters.
On the fan belt tensioner there is a switch that trips when The belt either comes off or gets too slack. Depending on application it can be wired to either turn on a warning light/buzzer or shut the engine off.
Agreed, we had a similar situation happen with our Bomag and the operator almost blew up a freshly rebuilt motor. The factory light/ buzzer are not the best on those machines.
24:50 i have seen such Bomags, the oil pan is the wrong way around mounted, bolt holes align either way - you should flip it 180 while you drain it after done watching you done did the oil change and i doubt you gonna drain the clean oil out again , catch it in a clean pan and then flip the oil pan, and remount it the right way
The best execution of a "form-a-funnel" on KZhead. Bravo Matt!
Head 'em up, move 'em out, Rollin', Rollin', Rollin' !! Good job, Matt !! Thanks for sharing !!
Nothing fills me with more confidence about a machine than the guy who ran it for 11 years saying they never changed the starter despite having trouble with it for all those years. Maintenance schmaintenance, am I right?
"Pencil Whip" those maintenance issues!
Starter test drop and the professional funnel system made my day. Thanks Mat, go ahead with this type of videos. Cheers from Argentina.
Matt I like this channel because you have a very good personality. Super videography and subject matter also helps. Thank you!
Like your style Matt ,know nothing about this stuff ,but enjoy your humour and the way you go about things and find it very entertaining ,good luck . 👍
Matt one of the things that fascinate me is your Knowledge of engines and equipment. I can’t imagine many people would know if there was an O-ring missing from the filter. Good luck with the shop Bird
I wish there was a diesel creek video everyday. Can't wait till the next one
You got what you paid for and your work paid off! Great job as usual.
I like how the parts are just bolted on to the engine. Makes for easy access.
On these belt driven blower untis its very important so keep the cooling fins of the cylinders clean, and the belt tentioner switch working. Pretty much the only way you can kill one of these engines is heat seizing. One of our customers ran a 4 cylinder 912 Deutz without oil until it seized, started right up after filling it with new oil, piston rings were toast of cause, but he could finish the season of using his mobile aggregation pumping.
One of the very best engines, we had a Fahr combine and two Deutz tractors on one of the farms I worked on here in Scotland and all three were the most reliable bits of machinery, they were over 30 years old at the time.
And easy on fuel
Great work, thanks for sharing 👍
The drop adjustment has always helped me. Even better if you get some fine pebbles inside the contraption.
I occasionally use heavy duty aluminum foil as a makeshift custom-sized 'form-a-funnel' for an easy clean-up when finished.
That was some mighty fine Appalachian engineering on the old wiring.
I'm not a wiring perfectionist, more like an amateur hack, but even i was getting a nervous tick looking at the horrible bodge job the previous owners had done on the wiring.
I can see the limit switch near the pulley. It's must be bypassed. The engine should shut down immediately when the belt breaks. It's the most important shutdown on Deutz's. I'm a Deutz tech BTW.
That unit doesn’t use a shut off solenoid, it’s fuel shut off is manual. The belt break switch only illuminates a light on the dash on this unit.
It could easily be modified to drive a fuel cut off.
Dude, you crack me up! Keep doin' what you do. Love your channel.
Matt you you have the patience of a Saint when it comes to old equipment. Thanks for sharing all your trials and tribulations . Enjoy your program. Keep it up
A small plumbing torch with mapp gas is one of my most useful tools - sometimes more useful than oxy-acetylene torch, drill bits, and tap and die sets.
Those no longer use the original MAPP gas and aren't as hot as they used to be. Those small cylinders are now filled with propylene plus a little propane as a MAPP substitute. True MAPP gas production ended in 2008 in North America,
@@bills6093 even still, it burns hotter than just propane. Great for sweating copper among other tasks.
Enjoy seeing these work
When a seller says "its been like that for years" you know they went the absolute cheapest for any maintenance on it. If it didn't prevent it from running it probably wasn't done, or a band-aid solution was used.
Well Matt definitely makes the video content more interesting with the purchase of your auction equipment. A man who is on tight budget with big dreams has to do what he's got to do. It's Diesel Creek keeping the American dream alive! Keep up the good work and looking forward to seeing you get the new shop built and those other projects you've had backed burnered being completed.
Been waiting on a video of this! Always a good day when you upload!
I love no intros and I think that's a good deal for that size thanks for all the information
Great stuff Matt👍👍👍👍👍always enjoy your videos.
The ring gear is separate from the flywheel and should be able to heat with a blow torch dropped & flipped. On the F41011F Deutz I had to flip a couple.
Correct, but getting at the flywheel is not that fun.... I would chamfer the teeth with an angle grinder, and it'll run for another decade
My guess is the tensioner is aftermarket, such a crucial thing for the cooling, the belt should have a backup.
I think the tensioner is original. Look closely, there is also an electrical switch there, that switch is/could be used to alert the operate of a broken belt or even shutoff the engine if the belt breaks.
@@davidnull5590 that’s exactly it. The second groove in the flywheel pulley and the blower fan is the backup belt, it doesn’t need to operate the shutdown/indicator switch.
@@SHarris64 A backup belt only does you any good if you actually maintain the machine and catch the first belt being broken. Going by the condition this was in, and what other commenters say about maintenance schedules on construction equipment... The switch is the fail safe, the second belt just extends the maintenance interval.
Such a nice project this machine! Nice video!!!
The coupling connecting the crankshaft to the hydraulic pump is a Centaflex, made in Germany, in case you ever need to buy one. . I used to work for them. Good flexible coupling. Cheers and keep up the good work Matt.
Ah Sunday morning coffee and a brand new Diesel creek to start the day.
You know, the fact that you kept the bit in, where you dropped the starter, I recon is the reason why so many of us watch and like your videos. You are true to yourself and dinkum (honest) with us. Cheers mate.🇦🇺
Very nice video. I'm sure many of the viewers, myself included, purchased a piece of heavy equipment that had a few hidden problems that popped up after we got it home.
You do many things I don't know much about but I have to say, you have to be one of the hardest working men I've ever seen. Keep on smiling.
I’ve used one of those segmented belts in places where a lot of disassembly would be required with good luck.
FYI... dielectric grease does NOT conduct electricity... the word dielectric means insulator. It's main use is to keep water and schmoo away from the conductors (pins) in a connector. The force of the socket against the pin pushes the grease away and creates a good electrical connection. Putting a film of dielectric grease on the starter mount _will_ help prevent corrosion, but will NOT help grounding (the bolts will provide plenty of ground).
False. Categorically false. It goes dielectric after it burns. It conducts perfectly well before that. Literally TENS of thousands of connections made personally with dielectric grease and ZERO resistance across the connection say you misunderstand the usage.
@@typrus6377 Could have said the last 10 words better!😟
@@TheCheffydave You are right, and I corrected it. I was heated earlier, and I apologize.
@@typrus6377 google dielectric grease and read what the mfg data sheets say. I know that for some reason this is an internet hot button, and I am not going to get anyone to admit they were/are mistaken, but truth is truth.
Segmented belts work pretty good especially since you have a grooved idler
Afternoon Matt, you sure seem to have a good knack for wrenching, I wrenched for 15 or so years in the heavy truck industry, had alot of sidework, I liked working out of the back of my pickup till the weather here in Michigan got bad, then it was back to the dealership...then came the back surgeries...that done it, been in vehicle testing for almost 20 years now... anyway, great video!! Be safe!! God Bless!!
The large Deutz engines I have seen run dual belts - since it is cooling, and force air cooled engines overheat very quickly might be a good investment to sort it out
Yes, not many people know…. But dropping the starter on the ground before install is the best way to seat the new brushes. Well done!
🤣🤣 Walmart service guide rule...
ever since i am buying used stuff, even before that, my dad always says, that "when you buy something used, expect to spend money on servicing it straight away" you never know what the previous owners did to it
Good advice.
