$50,000 engine job on the 9560R

[@fasteddy7011]

Sarah is an excellent operator. She knows exactly what's going on and when to shut it down. She's not a steering wheel holder like a lot of the new generation is. That tractor will run a long time now because all your equipment is well maintained. Many hard-working Farm kids like this nowadays.

[@almarkowbender]

Spoke too soon

[@workonitm8]

Great catch Sarah ! A good operator notices problems early before they become disasters later. Thanks

[@billupstateny9151]

Somewhat uncanny🚜

[@apmedeans7905]

Great to see Sarah back in her favorite tractor and she has eagle eyes notices things as soon as it happens. Shuts the equipment off to save any possible catastrophic failure. She is the type of operator all farmers need well done.

[@bryancovert9821]

FF&F , needs to purchase a rock windrowing picker combination equipment for all of THOSE rocks , WOW WEE ,freaking N.Y. !!!!!

[@mikkel1249]

my deepest respect for Sarah being that quick stopping ...... now that's a driver and not just a wheel holder

[@randybedker1584]

With all the work that Sara does on the equipment along all of your kids makes them so much better operators. Great job raising and teaching.

[@johnamerican1578]

To watch your kids work so well just makes me smile 🇺🇸👍 not all American family values are gone! You should be very proud

[@PAYNEKILLER..]

Sarah is amazing, not only is she drop dead beautiful but she's got brains too. Any father would be proud.

[@davidrogers3016]

Sarah certainly is a very observing operator. Your children never fail to amaze me on their skills . You certainly are a very blessed family.

[@Darryl603]

Sarah is so good at knowing her tractor. The sights and sounds, etc. It's amazing how tuned in she is with the machine! Way to go Sarah!

[@dsmreloader7552]

Those engines are problematic. I know of 2 KZbinrs and one local with the same 9560, two track versions and yours that have all had the same engine issues. EGR coolers, head bolts and head gasket.. Lots of operators would have gone til it shutdown on its own, excellent reaction to the problem Sarah!!!!

[@fastsetinthewest]

Thank you. I was going to say the same. Wow. Best to em for trying it.

[@lesterhertel2945]

Sarah is very good operator and knows what going on. Andy you taught them right

[@terryhobdy5727]

Sarah was really paying attention. All ur kids are excellent operators 👍

[@joeryan1793]

With the look on Sarah's face, she is going to own the farm. Definitely a leader that doesn't take crap.

[@ohmbug10]

Great job Sara for proving you're an excellent operator and saving the day.

[@Adam_Poirier]

Excellent video. I gotta say it is very impressive how quickly Sarah catches problems. She noticed that coolant leak immediately, to her it's just business as usual but man if that was here I wouldn't have gotten the phone call until the thing was overheating and boiling over lol. Cazenovia equipment is also excellent, they really do right by you guys. And like usual your mechanical ability and patience is really something. A lot of guys would be whining and complaining about having trouble after having spent money on a repair, you guys just keep working and get it done. Nice job. So on a remainufactured engine does that come as a 100% complete assembly with the turbo charger EGR cooler and everything on it? Or do they use the components off the other engine and just a long block? I know you just did that EGR cooler I think it was two winters ago now. I'm sure there will be some comments like that but they will be from people that could really stand to take a lesson from you. And look on the bright side if one of them freeze plugs blows out again you could always just pop a block heater element in there and tighten it down haha

[@tylerfromm3572]

We deal with LandPro where I am. They’re usually pretty good but not as good as what I’ve heard about Cazenovia from these videos

[@williamstentzsr.9568]

Wow ...Sarah is a master operator....she saved that tractor.👍👍👍

[@jamesfarnham1976]

Wow Andy you must be proud of Sarah catching something like that so quickly!! That's impressive to say the least!! Great videos! How's the new addition coming? Thanks for all you do. Jim.

[@FarmingFixingFabricating]

Slow

[@russellehler6706]

Sarah caught that QUICK! Great job!

[@Failure_Is_An_Option]

Caught it quick? It was pissing coolant like it was going out of style on the right side of the tractor. The side everybody is looking down.

[@jesseburns9734]

Andy I don't care what anyone else said your kids a some of the best operators out their. God Bless You and your Family

[@georgejoyner7369]

AGAIN Sarah is GREAT. Shutting down that tractor as soon as she saw the coolant coming out. Most operators don't pay attention to problems like that and would have ruined that new engine. GREAT JOB SARAH

[@raycollington4310]

Blimey Andy this must be painful to swallow. Good luck with this reman engine, let's hope it lasts and was not built by the people who did the Western Truck & Trailer engines. I really feel for you all. Tell Sarah not to thrash it for a few days. All the best.

[@chriseverett5398]

My thoughts exactly

[@markreetz1001]

Warren sure has had a devil of a time with remans. Especially the ones that come in broke!

[@raycollington4310]

@Richard Homan This core plug (what we call them in UK) coming out would make me worry about the standard of the mechanic who built the engine. Fingers crossed for Andy's sake this was all he/she didn't get right.

[@steves.7872]

Nice job Sarah. Love your T-shirt. And there's Alex With her beautiful smile.

[@dana9265]

I've never ever heard anyone call those soft plugs where I come from they're all called frost plugs and I've done literally over 1000 engines and I've never heard tell her that that's a good one I like that great video as always Andy

[@davidmorse8432]

I always called them freeze plugs and they do protect the engine when the coolant doesn't have enough antifreeze in it to prevent freezing because they can pop out and relieve some of the internal pressure before the block gets cracked.

[@donburg5125]

Andy, Sarah knows her shit about all these old used tractors and that is a great sign. Keep them family kids moving along with farm work. Thanks young man for the great videos and keep them coming

[@Dennismelnychuk]

Sarah is definitely on the ball to shut it down that quick. Andy you sure have more patience with your dealer and the engine rebuilder than I would've had.

[@ralphllivrah9551]

People that don’t have patience almost always scree themselves over. People don’t wanna do things for axx holes. You almost always get more by being polite,considerate,and patient.

[@Dennismelnychuk]

There is no reason for poor quality control and sketchy work when you are paying top dollar, just lately the same tractor had a connecting rod come thru the block

[@ralphllivrah9551]

[@rogerquenault7207]

Another great video showing the benefits of bringing the kids up around equipment and getting them to get their hands dirty doing repairs well done to you all. By the way this is not the first time I’ve seen a reman engine not run straight out the box I watch western truck and tractor repairs and he wouldn’t spit on a John Deere reman.

When I started farming my grandfather would come out to the fields and help me fix or load seed or help me move from field to field. He told me that if farming was so easy everyone would do it. That has stayed with me ever since. It's a great tractor. Thank you for a great video

[@bobblenuts]

Andy, you really seem to roll very well with the punches when things go south and I detect very little frustration thru the lens.

[@joegotz1971]

As an ex potato farmer employee we had these days too many times. During the bad days we would ask, “Is it time to go home yet?” I never complained, I just kept working, because farming paid my way through college and after graduation to pay my college loan off. I remember many days with a combination of Never Seize, Permatex, and diesel fuel on my pants. Thanks for your informing videos.

I understand you. I don't care whether it's a rebuild or a man or a brand new one, I always like to keep a close eye on a new engine.

Andy, writing this comment before video was complete, but you need to keep a very sharp eye on that engine! JD outsources their re-man engine builds and there a lot of people that have had big issues with them (check out Western Truck and Tractor's KZbin channel), for both the engine and warranty issues! From what I saw that softplug did not have lock-tight on it when you picked it up off the ground, so there is probably a good chance that none of them did!
