It’ll run I can’t get over how good it looks under the head as old as it is and sitting in the weather enjoyed the video.

Trucks ready for plow season 😂

Frank, love your channel. Learning a lot about things I know nothing about - even though I’m a mechanic! Ha! You working those excavator controls was impressive to watch. You have the skills to be a good helicopter pilot or drummer (speaking since I am both). Continuing to watch your old and new videos. Thank you for creating the fascinating videos!

My god people read some comments before commenting. Btw, that vale, vowel, valve on #4 - she's a no good.

Side valve

Really cool Frank. I love watching. And working old equipment and trucks. ❤

Where did you find your seat? I am looking things up but the part numbers never seem to return to a place that has a seat I can use. Love my new to me 270A backhoe. Just has to recore the radiator though. it was bad.

Out here moving dirt like it's 1969...💪🏻

So, I found Matt on Diesel Creek, that led me to Sam on Scrappy Industries, and now, thanks to Sam hauling the Lima 604, here I am.

One valve is stuck look at it

Where’s the cooling channels in this block ?

Cylinder 4 is having valve issues

nice score im guessing you got that for a song and a dance. any plans for it?

10/10 compression 💀

Aww a 855 Cummins

How do you run a mower deck

Just give it a squirt of Easy Start....

Someone told me 4 cylinder engines don’t have that kind of compression stroke 🤔 Guess they were wrong

If you ever find the name of this carb I need it mine cracked in half

i

had these in 955

engine wore out

Cool !

@52:50 Looks like you got a little Nitromethane in your fuel. And for that, i've subscribed!

La última valvula esta pegada

I think it would be a great addition to the trailer.

Wow, remarkable

In Europe made Ruston Bucyrus these machines, i still have some manuals in my collection i love watching them

Cannot wait to see this machine running, make more video's please!!

That come from the sale in Hazelton?

Only thing is I can hardly imagine you buying a dead machine that needs winching on.😂

It will need to be mounted very firmly to something substantial.

Nice looking winch Frank

Wow! A Lima mechanical shovrl and an aithentic Diamond Rio truck.😍

I don't think that winch is driven by hydraulics. That is a PTO driven winch with a hydraulic accessory pump.

Looks like a good strong unit.

Should work fine. Get some snatch blocks.

Nice find Frank! 😃👍

I have a D330T in my 944a Cat loader. That engine has always been very cold blooded and is slow starting like yours. If its not hot out it needs a little shot of ether. That will be a good crane engine Frank

is that caused by the valve spring being broken ?

Only 1 valve stuck open!

bad to the bone

so awesome great channel

excellent save

So cool thanks for sharing with us.

Good to see your hy hoe ! Spent many a year with mine digging on farms and demoing houses around town. I demoed about a dozen Standard oil of ohio bulk tank farms removed all the underground tanks! That 4-53 is why I can’t hear that well now!! Hy Hoe. Hy Hoe it’s off to dig I go! When it was 10 below 1 can of ether would get her running on 2 cylinders then go to breakfast by the time we got back she would be running on all 4 and I could start digging!!

nice score

@73DiamondRio how was you able to get that motor unstuck?

Swapping this in my Honda

Great job resuscitating this machine piece by piece.
