Tracks are on backwards.

Wow, what a mess, Mr. Mike! That tip about old ear muffs is great, I'll be making me a set!

Make things cheaper to make more money.

Wow great mechanic!IUOE too excellent!

Banned!!!

i’ve seen that about a half dozen times on water pumps, only on fords though. That’s from never changing the antifreeze as It gets quite acidic. lol GM dexcool is even worse at plugging everything up.

Looks like more modern garbage. China filling up our landfills on garbage item at a time.wait until you have to pull a transmission to change a water pump or timing/oil pump belt.

Where are you located ?

if you replace the switch with a double pole switch and wire the grinder to one side and the12 volt to the other side then the hole thing will stop when done .

I heard you couldn’t even fix a sandwich 😢 🥪

Won't work. Too wide. Media will build up and sit on side walls when you get to like 60% empty. Also, no Chicago fittings on air. That loses half the air almost. Over complicated. I built them. They need to be simpler even than this to be efficient. Good try, nice tank. Smart guy for sure.

Can't see anything

We LOVE seeing content like this. Thanks for sharing!

Good stuff to know, thank you Mr. Mike, for sharing your knowledge and experience!

Was it as much of a pain as you thought it would be?

Great video Mike thanks!

Great project Mike! Nice job!

Cool setup. That should get some work done

Nice presentation

What beast nice work Mike

Sweet machine! You did a beautiful job on 'er!

Sum ting wong

Nice Job Moe! Followed your build on this beast. Awesome. KZbin deleted my first comment yesterday No Clue why. TGP

Nice. Man that Detroit really screams. Pretty cool seeing it done after seeing it sit for awhile. Don’t you have another one to do? lol

What a beast 👍🏼

Mike--does your build plate read "82-30" or C-6? I have owned 3 82-30 units and one C-6--I thought all cable machines were C-6--thx

Power ! What did you say ? LoL. Beautiful ole Girl.

Screamin' jimmy 6-71. Regardless of what some folks say about them, the Detroit diesel was a successful design that lasted for over 60 years.

Great sound, beautiful job!

All Great Tips Mike I try to replace batteries every 3 to 4 years in my primary vehicles especially the Wifes SUV, Ha Then I move those batteries to my lessor used trucks/tractors, and keep then on maintainer. I have some 7 to 10 years old and still going. I get my batteries from Rual King. There made by Deika or East Penn. That test light trick to check the ground was a new one on me. I've used vom to check V drop and Resistance, but the light was pretty cool. Thanks TGP

Excellent video. We got an old Deutz 2 cylinder in an old BladeMor grader. You helped with some issues I was having with it. All the Best!

Thanks, Mr. Mike. Where do you get your service manuals from? I have a three cylinder Deutz in an old Lincoln welder and would like to get a service manual for it. Thanks in advance!

Nice diagnostics master Mike. I didn't realize that engine had a timing belt. I've had a Atlas Copco XAS 80 DD with DEUTZ F3L912 for over 30years. Only problem was the compressor was replaced 15 years ago after dust intrusion. Engine runs great when I need it, Should I be looking at the timing belt? It has well over 7000 hrs if I remember. Thanks for sharing TGP

Worked on a dam job doing compaction test. When double barrel Euc scrapers came by with the rear straight pipe 6 71s full bore you had to hang onto your hat.

❤ I love it. It’s the right color and it sounds great. Whole lot Better than scratching around with a hoe.

The sweet sound of a detroit...

Just can't beat the sound of a old Detroit engine

That's pure music to my ears! Detroit is perfect for turning diesel into noise. Thank you for the video. Got a Steiger Puma I put a 6-71 in years ago and neighbors hate midnight chisel plowing

I’m now deaf. Thank you sir 🫡

You don't see that every day, but life would be better if you did. Love the sound of an old Detroit!

Up until four years ago, I had a 1974 Kenworth with a 8V71 drove that truck for 13 years love me a two stroke I gave it to my buddy to use surround his farm. For its retirement life

This is exactly how to run a Detroit 2 stroke, and for that matter, most any two stroke. Wind them up as tight as they will go, then throw the load on them and don’t be bashful about it.

I ran a 52 Euclid belly dump just like this. We had a hood. 5 speed Clark transmission. 6-71. You couldn't tear it up.

You were correct when you said the video would be enjoyable. Man of your word. Still means something. Great video !

Just got ptsd....deetroits...am i right ?

60 years ago it was called work now it’s considered fun and you’re having it!

The definition of ASMR. I retrofitted a 6-71 into my 745C Fiat Allis loader, I absolutely love it.

Cool

Why did they stop using the Detroit engines in heavy equipment?

Awesome work you do Can learn alot from your experience
