Can I revive rusty cylinders with cleanser, while running. Old Timer re-ring in a hurry! PT2

Now, the stuck valves.....
You guessed it, the dozer is only running on 2 outa 4 jugs. Since the motor is on life support, I thought it would be a good candidate to test honing while running with diatomaceous earth or... BON AMI
Famous fix for water down the stack in tractors in the old days. Or a rebuild in a can!

That's an example of survival mechanics right there.

[@pcspecialistpdx]

I always used compressed air to hold them up to put the spring and keepers on.

[@countrylife4195]

That is an awesome 💡we did not think of that. Would have been way easier

[@kstricl]

@@countrylife4195 you can use the adapters off a compression tester, or you can buy specific plug adapters. I've used them a couple times to change valve seals on some of my old cars in the past.

[@rickw4160]

We stuffed ropes. Even with air. If you have a not so good seal there isn't enough to keep it in place..

[@rickw4160]

That is so awesome.

[@charlesuplifted5216]

That’s what I used when I upgraded springs on a 5.9 Cummins

[@thevinstigator2511]

Ahah! I assumed because you had zero compression on those two cylinders there was probably stuck-open valves. Glad you figured it out and got it running better.

[@thomasbailey8306]

Its running good . Your Friend Joe is a MASTER...At any Engine....Hes a Good Guy too have in your Corner....He reminds Me of some Mechanics I had the Pleasure of working around...He Can FIX ANYTHING...Good Deal. It burns oil. But He adjusted the valves to Detroit Specs.....LOL...HAHA...LMAO.. . So I guess That Answer that question. What they didnt leak they burnt..GREAT MOTORS...

[@oldschool1993]

Grip the valve stem with a drill and rotate it while pulling up- then reverse the drill and do it again. that will clear the rust from the guide and help seat the valve in the seat.

[@chrisdoran7673]

yup..done it before

[@Guns_N_Gears]

I find it gratifying tapping on valves with a hammer, probably cause I like projects like that!!

[@MP-nz6rs]

Great job getting dozer going guys👍🏻

[@PaganWizard]

1:30 "I secretly have to tell my wife I bought a fork lift" It's a whole lot easier to ask for forgiveness, than it is to ask for permission. BTW, I have watched some videos where the motor was either DOA or just missing, on a, old farm tractor. The creator got the largest Harbor Freight Predator motor available, and, with a bit of welding for a new deck for the motor, and some gearing, not only did the old tractor run, but it was able to pull large tree stumps out of the ground, and move large boulders.

[@chuckcompton3622]

“These have been violated before, I can tell!”.......that made me laugh out loud! Great video!

[@JamesDavis-to1hn]

You and Joe did an outstanding job! Great teamwork 👍

[@stephaneracicot791]

Very good job my friend.Thats how u keep a Country alive.U make do with what u have and fix it.i will always say this people will keep paintings fancy couches big tv big cabinets but will sell the tools when they get old or think they dont need em.try changing a valve with a painting or a couch.last thing i will ever sell are my tools and have tons of them.Again good job keep safe god job bless you and your family.

[@flir67man84]

Your buddy is the real deal! I thought the same thing about valve clearance compared to a detriot diesel. I guess i watch to much bus grease money.. 😉

[@OuradventuresGU]

She lives, maybe a little Smokey but get that never hurt anyone 👍 glad you’re back and filming, been too long and always good to see Joe make a special appearance! Can’t wait to see the fun you get up too with the old girl! 😉🤞

[@mayshack]

A little smokey? It's like a Cheech and Chong movie in his yard.

[@davewolf8869]

Weld a bolt that will thread into the vice grips, to a Sawzall blade, clamp the vice grips to the valve stem and use the Sawzall to loosen it. It may come in handy with other projects too.

[@wes11bravo]

That was astounding.

[@andycrawford8689]

Good job on getting it to run better

[@charliecurry6249]

Great to see Joe again he is one very good mechanic

Well done finally running on all four.

[@christopherbaxendale276]

With drawl sympton's have been happening. glad your back.

Lol, thanks, got 4 or 5 episodes shot but have not been having time to edit.

[@flhusa1]

try seafoam deep creep in place of pb blaster for a change.

[@Dj-ve2hx]

That's bad ass 👍

[@MrFlashx1]

Enough hemp rope down the plug hole and bar over till rope holds valve up.

[@amberselectronics]

Cotton rope does it too. Way easier than the compressor studf

[@scottleininger2404]

Very cool

[@perbagarn]

Just listening to audio gives a whole new meaning to the expression "dirty mind" ;-D

[@Gunsmith-oj9gk]

I've been waiting for this 👍

[@rtaylor190]

I always fill the motor with 5 gallon diesel fuel let it sit a day or so an work it free thin i fire it up an let it run bout t3 minutes with the diesel it the oil then shut off drain all out works for me everytime

[@kevinhumphrey932]

Ive used compressed air to help return stuck valves

[@mischef18]

Surprising what a bit of tinkering by an expert will do bro, it's now officially alive and old enough to smoke by the looks of it too. Safe travels up your way

I just ask on the first one you did about this how it was doing. Then I found this. Glad you got it going. You'll get all kinds of work done with that thing. Good one

[@rodneymiddleton9624]

Joe saves the day!!!!! Thanks!!

[@GarnettM]

Find yourself a Compression guage that will remove the guage like a air compressor valve, Hook it up to the compressor to hold up the valves, But after you get this ol boy running again run it with a half pint of ATF transmission oil in the crankcase tranny oil is a detergent will remove most of the chalac out of the motor done it for decades on my old Ford trucks run it till it smoothed right out, You will go Holy Shxt incredible then do oil change.

[@soillife1]

Your correct And I have used kerosene and two cycle oil also.

[@teleman65]

Stick I screw driver in the plug hole and hold the valve up then depress the valve spring and invert retainer clips

[@havenperry8693]

You can use air pressure to keep the values up

[@Abufast]

It breaths again.

[@ryanbeyea2834]

What's up

[@billmorris2613]

Good morning from SE Louisiana 6 May 21.

[@alan6832]

Especially if the spring is not compressed all the way, you can often free them just by tapping on them with a nonferrous hammer or a brass punch, often many soft little taps. I have even seen people use small, steel hammers with without visible damage or apparent problems.

[@KB4QAA]

Or use a piece of wood on top the valve, and any hammer you want.

[@davidzamora4423]

Thank you for your sharing your video with us. You have very cute daughter. Made me smile

[@anthonyyoung7344]

That pb blaster is what broke them valves loose. It will eat the rust and carbon up.

[@flhusa1]

if you can turn the valve stems after they move up and down will free up. it's varnish on the valve stems and guides. valves usually auto rotate somewhat when running.

[@rupe53]

JD ... rotating valves have a bearing on top. These do not rotate.

[@andymacdonald1535]

I put a drill on the valve and move it up and down while i rotate the valve with the drill.

[@zacattack8795]

Love this video buddy

[@bigsid1984]

Get old school mechanic bring her back to life. Some engines built run forever

[@neilmcintosh1200]

Nice to see you back. Will we see some of this eclectic collection doing some real work?

[@flhusa1]

use a 2x4 on top of valve to protect the end.

[@yesterdaystreasures797]

Welcome back !! Now we have some good videos to watch. PS, new camera?

[@BillSmith-ut5li]

Put a few drops of Mystery Oil on on them boogers won't hurt a thing.

[@morriewyatt6234]

I'll admit that seeing the amount of PB Blaster and Brake Clean used to get the valves free had me half expecting the first decent spark to blow the sump off the engine, or at least geyser engine oil out of the pushrod holes. Good outcome anyway.

[@soillife1]

Back after WW11 We used kerosene untill the 80s Some old time mechanic s still do I'm 71 now

[@AdversityZone]

to hold a valve in place with the head still on you get an old spark plug and gut it then weld / braze / solder / what ever an air fitting to it and hook up a air line and give it 20PSI or more , it will stay in place easly long enough to put the colits and spring back on

[@rupe53]

Adverse ... that only works if you can maintain the air pressure, which is usually not something a DIY can do. The problem is the air will also push the piston down and if the pressure goes away the valve falls into the cylinder. Best bet is to stuff a piece of clothes line in there and bring the piston up by hand to hold the valve. If you get sidetracked then everything will stay in place forever. When done, turn the engine the other way and pull the rope out.

[@AdversityZone]

@@rupe53 20psi will not turn the motor over and when did i say put air in there and then take it away? no you plug in the air line and leave it there till the job is done that job would take all of 2 min as you can see with what they did PS:- i am a retired motor mech and did just what i described over and over in my 30 years

[@rupe53]

@@AdversityZone ... retired mechanic of 50 years myself and know that few DIY guys have the option of regulated air down that low and, yes, 20 psi can turn a tired motor over... and air can go away if your compressor can't keep up or are using a portable tank. The air trick is best if you have a short job. The rope trick will allow you to leave it overnight or perhaps a trip to the parts store. Also costs pennies, everyone has some, and no power required. I always keep a few feet handy in my tool box. I have used it on my personal car while on the road along with a small spring compressor.

[@rogerrussell8578]

Tappy tap tap

[@mchl8]

That fire in the manifold did you make adjustments to tame that down a bit?

[@ryanbeyea2834]

Hi

[@rphe2829]

I've been waiting for this Video for a while ,it's just crap in the gap from sitting for so long air hose in spark plug to hold the valve in place we change valve springs like that all day long

You need to see Dr Phil one day soon 🔜

Nice!!!!!

O hey man! Funny seeing you here

[@Petrochemtester]

How deh you!!

[@destroyshitphillips2574]

Sea Foam works good to free stuck valves, if not bent.

[@rupe53]

Sea Foam wont work where it can't get... and if the valve is stuck it wont get there.

[@olspanner]

That's Bon Ami smoke alright lol

[@northwestrockgem9745]

Dude your in Washington it looks like you live by me maybe maple valley? Haha! Just a guess buddy might be Oregon or somethin

[@countrylife4195]

Maple valley

[@roythornton919]

was that a cat or internathional . bulldozer . and when the guy drop that valve if you could of hook a air fitting up the the plug hole and shot air inside the head the vale would of stay up . but hey the main thing is it crank up after you fond out there were no fire

[@crewcab1984rv]

Have You done a compression test after You guys fixed the valves

[@dancurrier6421]

when's the Peterbuilt updates coming out

[@anytractorman]

Change the oil, filter now, it may be better, some 40 weight might help

[@bigbearccoffin]

Where have u been man we missed ur videos

[@countrylife4195]

Sadly, worky work has been slammed

[@teejays2553]

How about a soft hammer or a bit of wood ?

[@superbeeblaze]

did you ever change the oil with all that carb cleaner you put in it?? lol

[@georgemosley6790]

So, is there a Part 3 to this video?

[@robj2704]

Yep. Bon-Ami was not going to free up those stuck valves.

Steel is old it stiff heat but just

You look familiar

[@delboy321]

Any chance of you posting another post soon me old mucka 🤓

[@countrylife4195]

Tomorrow!!

[@phillipbremer7715]

That engine I were you just gets so parts not worth ruining engine

[@barbaratodd1288]

Hopefully it had the oil changed after the Bon Ami and all that pb blaster

I saw your video on the old Buick can you tell me if his estate is going to sell the car I may be interested if it has not been sold I did notice some light dings and paint scratches again thank you John

[@JamieTransNyc]

Your subject matter is interesting, but man o man you sure take a long time to get to the point. @ 13:05 a good reason to do that with the piston near top of the cylinder PS.. it is not "Bonami" it is "Bon Ami" which means "good friend" in french.
