I'm not a mechanic, but I would say since you have the big piece of equipment, it's worth the extra $1500 to rebuild. So you've got $3,000 invested....not too shabby for what you'd end up having. Found myself giggling out loud at a lot of your content - especially the "love and passion" scene. Really enjoy your vids!

[@NockRanch]

[@halcampbell1384]

Before you rebuild, soak the pistons in Barryman B-12 to free the rings. B-12 is a regular tool used by Vice Grip Garage for that purpose. Might as well also lap the valves to make sure you have the best seal.

[@arnoldromppai5395]

witch one you referring to. most listings for b12 is a fuel system cleaner. or an oil change additive or a parts cleaner, for years to fre up rings an stuff i use a 50/50 mix of fuel oil and ATF

[@8osWeReTheBest]

Your rings are probably stuck on #2 & #3 piston. White smoke from valve cover is blowby from stuck or broken rings. Pull the engine put new rings in ball hone the cylinders just a little and she will run. Also make sure your injectors are spraying good. Don't give up yet.

[@NockRanch]

Hoping they're just stuck and I can clean them up n throw her back in. Thanks for the comment!

[@ronaldnedland2605]

put a little 2 stroke oil into the cylinder through the glow plug port and turn it over under compression and a little ether. once combustion starts it should fee the rings up and give a little better pressures.

[@NockRanch]

That's what the hope is! We're going to try it out and see 👍

[@coltonkruse2313]

This is the next thing you should try before any kind of tear down. Oil in the cylinder will help you build some compression and might get it to start.

[@justingreaves6769]

Yeah mate that’s what I’d do, ether will get it cranking easy when it’s that close to turning over

[@Mad.Man.Marine]

Also. Make sure you have a small piece of plywood with a chunk of rubber on it. Make sure the intake tube is open and accessible. That way if she try’s to run away on you when it DOES start you are ready to cover the intake. Don’t give up on it man. She will go. Also you can leave it sitting for a while with straight rust eliminator in it. That may free the rings up. If you rebuild it it’s not hard. I bet it only needs a home and a set of piston rings. And even if you can’t get the case ones. You can go to a “build your own ring pack” company and just tell them the sizes. Dooooont give up!!

[@ronaldclark2624]

Reverse polarity on the battery will turn the engine backward resulting in no start. The rings will loosen up when the engine starts and runs. Don't give up. Ron PTL USA

[@cmilescody]

Well, don't feel too bad. I bought an older one (1835B) at an on-line auction ($6K delivered) based on the video of it working and the smile on the guy's face. I still had it delivered directly to the shop (I can't spell mchaneic) and they provided $9K more "worth" of head grinding, gasket and hose replacing, and a bit of tuning. It runs smooth like a 80 year old cigarette smoking kitten... but the hydraulic pump leaks... so I spent $15K and still there's a little more to do. You have inspired me to skid into the final mile using my own elbow grease, once I can find some, they said O'Reilly's has it, the best is the kind that comes in a tube, at least I know that, jeez. Wish me luck!

[@NockRanch]

Man, sounds like a nightmare. No feeling will compare to getting it done yourself. Best!

Thanks for watching!

[@outofthinair1]

No such thing as a "loss", I call it a valuable" learn". I would love to see this old beast run but I also understand budget. Add one more to your sub list, I'm looking forward to future videos.

[@NockRanch]

I appreciate it. Welcome! We'll get her goin' one way or another.

[@elizabethdennis4582]

Hope to see more on this project. Your humor and content are really entertaining. Keep up the good work. We all want to see your channel thrive.

[@NockRanch]

I appreciate this, thank you!

[@bigblock6444]

Been looking for a channel to fill my time waiting on a new diesel creek and gotta say super happy your channel came up. Great video, keep up the good work. Good luck from the deep south!

[@NockRanch]

I appreciate it! More to come!

[@kaylajason8917]

I say soak the cylinders with marvel mystery oil or atf fluid for a while. Then try to start. If you get it going, the cylinders usually come back, not 100%, but good enough. Adding the oil will help with compression and hopefully get it to pop off. Also try All States Ag Parts they usually have tons of parts for older Case engines and very reasonable. Came across your channel and instantly sub, your work and humor is awsome. Keep up the work man and hope we see you back on this here soon.

[@NockRanch]

Awesome, thank you for the kind words! I'll check them out👍

[@4WardGarage]

I just have to say, this is a great video. You have a great personality and I hope you keep going and being yourself. Great work!

[@NockRanch]

I appreciate this, thank you!

[@legendoffrost8832]

Bud you have no idea just how close you are to getting it running! I'd try a bit of ether (starting fluid) to get it started(just a quick burst into the intake) and hopefully, those rings will start freeing up. I would try that before completely pulling out/tearing down the engine.

[@NockRanch]

So close you can feel it, isn't it!? Thanks for the advice!

[@michaelanthony3816]

Do you have glow plugs if so ck if they are getting voltage

[@stew6338]

Did you guys watch the video? He tried starting fluid (ether)and used the glow plugs.

[@Niklez7]

its down to compression .

[@MrPaul9446]

Just watched both vids and reading comments. Sounds like you got some sound advise. I hope you start back on the project

[@swordfish3779]

New rings, lap the valves, starting fluid, big battery and you’re away. Let’s go! Adelaide Hills, South Australia

[@NockRanch]

Welcome. Thank you!!

[@brentkinstler5314]

I went through the very same thing. Had mechanic after mechanic look at it and all were stumped. Make sure the hydro aux lever is in the center. It's the pedal looking thing down by your left leg/foot. Make sure it's centered. If pressed either direction - its under major load and will not fire for anything in the world.

[@richardandrehsen3260]

Dont give up on it, i feel like your pretty close to getting it going. You got me hooked and subed with this bad boy and id love to see it running!!!

[@NockRanch]

We'll get it goin! Thanks!

[@JoeAroner-SIWAYTV]

I’ve seen some guy on KZbin put in a Hobo Freight engine in a clapped out skid steer. Not saying that’s your answer, but you have options. Keep on keeping on, your content is great! Thanks for not slow rolling this project out like Airplane Rescue with 400 episodes of the same BS.

[@NockRanch]

I appreciate you man. Thank you!

[@anonysend6532]

Great vid. I like your style and the subject matter - can't beat a good skidsteer repair video - that's how I found Diesel Creek and Jesse Muller. Keep at it. Lapping valves, unsticking rings, more ether, more soaking, check injectors spray pattern. I'd love to have a skid steer to repair, but am happy to watch you troubleshoot.

[@NockRanch]

Matt's a great guy from my little interaction with him. Glad you landed on my channel. Welcome!

[@brentkinstler5314]

I'll bet you a dollar u fiddle with that lever and take the load off - she will fire right up. I was getting fire and white smoke and nothing. Mechanic after mechanic came and went saying it needed a rebuild. Took me a while messing with that pedal lever and she will fire up. You can thank me later. 100%. Great work and video

[@NockRanch]

I'll check it out, thanks for the insight!

[@VetvsWorld]

Nice edits homie, and to see you grow. ✊🏼

[@NockRanch]

I appreciate it thank you!!

[@noneyaas2669]

I love this channel awesome videos man keep it up👍

[@NockRanch]

I appreciate you. Thanks and will do!!

[@countryflyer4536]

Take the head off, lap the valves, soak it some more, hone the cylinder walls, soak it some more, turn it over by hand, soak it more. Those rings are likely to break lose..Done this on 4-5 frooze up engines..

[@NockRanch]

Good advice! Thank you!

[@nutsarefancy]

I subbed. Love your style

[@NockRanch]

I appreciate you, thanks!

[@scottyjobe3958]

24 volt it get it spinning faster

[@NockRanch]

Might grab the 2 batteries from my DT466 next time I try it!

[@stew6338]

Yep I would try 24 volts. If it's down on compression it needs to spin faster. If you can get it to start the rings might come around.

[@Trumptrain2024FJB]

Love these videos!

[@NockRanch]

More to come. Thank you for your support!!

[@pmkgamingtv]

If you have stuck piston rings at rust it lower compression. So if you get it running warm compression at 1 and 2 cylinders can rise.

[@NockRanch]

That's what I'm hoping. Thanks for the comment!

[@ericsimecek]

Quality skid steer content

[@NockRanch]

freshé peppe, eh

[@eoinoreilly9188]

It’s a pity you didn’t relap the valves while you had the head out and we’re waiting for a head gasket, could have really helped for your compression, also I’d check injectors also as they we’re probably sitting in water for a good period mightn’t be spraying correctly

[@NockRanch]

Live and learn. I agree!

[@clubberlang5593]

Excellent content my dude keep it coming..

[@NockRanch]

I appreciate you. Thanks!

[@brushhogginginthedirtysout5645]

Just found your channel, great video, go ahead and rebuild it, and keep those videos coming.

[@NockRanch]

I appreciate that, thank you! Will do 👍

[@ashleysomerville2509]

If it was a six cylinder it would start with low compression as the other cylinders would compensate for it. Probably remove pistons and free up the rings is all that it needs but before i would do that i would try a couple of things. Firstly remove the hydraulic pump off the bottom crankshaft pully and the driveshaft or coupler at the flywheel to the front pumps. So all the starter is doing is turning over the engine by itself as its alot easier and the pumps aren't slowing the starter down.Then put the largest battery you can find in it or even link two together but still keeping the system 12 volts. Then remove the glow plugs and pour some thick oil into two cylinders (maybe the lucas oil additive thats really thick) the quickly fit the glow plugs and try starting. I think it will work. The oil should seal around the ring area and create compression. If you have a 24v battery booster you can spin it over on short bursts at 24 volts till really get some good speed on the engine. Good luck. Would love till see it running.

[@NockRanch]

This is the plan! We'll get it goin. Fingers and toes crossed

[@funone8716]

Here's what I've done and it WORKS unless the pistons are melted. Get a round piece of ALu bar, 1/4" smaller than the bore. Set it on top of the pistons and push an air chisel onto the top of the alu bar (puck). You'll need a good compressor with 120 psi or higher. Proceed to rattle the pistons with air chisel, after 20, 30, 50 minutes if they are going to come loose, they WILL. If not, HF 22hp Predator swap.

You’re handy, pull that sumbich out n replace them rings. Let’s go!

[@NockRanch]

We'll get it licked one way or another!

[@michaelmartineau1373]

Don't give up you are so close i agree with other commenters bigger battery and quick start once you can make it fire rings will most likely loosen up good luck lad you have a great personality you will do well in KZbin land

[@NockRanch]

I appreciate this more than you know. Thank you!

[@andrewrobinson2869]

Don’t give up just yet little bit of oil in 1 & 2 to seal the rings so compression will go up a bit, new fuel , some starting fluid and a really good fully charged battery and rig two batteries up so you get a bigger shot of power keep it at 12 volts , I think you will get it. You so very close. Also you don’t know if the leak is in the valves as you didn’t reset them so when you put a little oil in each cylinder then give it another cylinder test that will tell you if your Val es are leaking if the numbers stays the same if they go up will you have a leak in your cylinders but you will sort it out, don’t give up. Regards Andy PERTH AUSTRALIA

[@NockRanch]

Thank you for the advice!!

[@DS-Turbo]

Great video you made. Pretty entertaining

[@NockRanch]

I appreciate that, thank you!

[@jgc2289]

pull the head then the pan .pop the pistons out and put new rings on . hone the cylinders and relap the valves. that should'nt cost 1500 maybe 3or 4 tops . all you need are rings maybe rod bearings and a couple gaskets and you'll have a decent skid steer

[@guymiller7795]

Love the content! Your a howl to watch lol. Keep on keepin it real. 👍

[@NockRanch]

I appreciate it thank you!!

[@DS-Turbo]

You can get diesel engines from reefer units from around 100 to $200. I would just repower it with one of those that's and that is common as it can get

[@NockRanch]

I'll look into that just in case!

[@jameslatimer6850]

Keep at it! Great content. Just found your channel.

[@NockRanch]

I appreciate it thank you! Another video this Sunday!

I have an 1835B and do all the work on it, I feel your pain

[@andrewrobinson2869]

Oh yeah I too just found your channel and now subscribed , you will get there keep the videos coming, while you wait see if you can pick up a cheap hydrologic pump so you can see if the rams are good or jerryrig something up. Just keep these video’s coming.

[@NockRanch]

And thanks for subscribing, I appreciate it!!

[@CSWmanofsteel]

I have a case 1835c that I COMPLETELY rebuilt and it’s a AWESOME machine regardless of what people say about the engine it’s one of the greatest engines produced. I also built a rotary brush motor and a 4 way dozer blade a hydraulic front loader type cement mixer presently being built and a post hole digger in the works. DON’T SCRAP IT. You’ll kick yourself in the end.

[@NockRanch]

Dang sounds like you got a nice setup! No worries, we'll get it going!

[@CSWmanofsteel]

@@NockRanch if you want I’ll send you pictures of the machine and the attachments?

[@brianshockley9348]

It looks like a really nice machine wish I had it myself

[@carloscuriel6308]

All the comments are accurate. I would soak the cylinders with fuel for a week, even wd-40 or blaster will do to loosen the rings a little. Once the come loose, dont use ether just squirt gasoline in the intake. If it fires no more ether just one squirt of gasoline at a time untill it runs then no more gas. I wish you were in FL, I will take it off your hands.

[@NockRanch]

Man sometimes I was in FL too! Already getting cold in Cleveland...

[@wyattprout]

I could be wrong but i think those holes are for the glowplugs. Great video

[@carlkoeller2276]

Keep at it. A gas engine only needs about 80 psi to run and once it's starts to pop the rings will free up and it will run. I had a perkins last year do the same thing but it started to run on one cylinder then it took off.

[@Dontlieme]

You do understand a diesel is compression based right, no spark plugs. If maybe one of the cylinders was down 50 psi, it might run, but when 2 are way lower it will not kick off

[@carlkoeller2276]

Yep good hot glow plugs are a must

[@carlkoeller2276]

And starting fluid will pop off ez just a little compression and hot glow plug pop. Pop. Pop it should run

[@neilkratzer3182]

If you need head gaskets made. Olsen's make almost any head gasket. Been down this road. Tap the pistons with a block of wood and small sledge hammer.

Those old girl are chain to the wheels. Make shore no slack. On the chains. Pain in the ass. If chain fall off. But a working machine. I give thumps up. Hard working. No air con. That's good they don't over heat. And plenty of power.

[@panheadsnake1]

Take the glow plugs out and put a half ounce of 20 w 50 in each cylinder and it will start

[@coltonkruse2313]

Shoot buddy! I'm behind on videos. Gotta play catch up now! Glad to see the skidloader back on the channel.

[@NockRanch]

More to come. Thanks for sticking around, pally

[@coltonkruse2313]

Dude!!! Just finished the video. That thing is soooo close. Put a little oil in the cylinders to help out with some compression. It will go.

[@mick00000000002]

Pull the two injection out. Run with one cylinder. And see if ring come loss. Get the heat up. )) don't give up. Starter motor will run faster only one piston running give it a go. God bless. I believe

[@NockRanch]

Thank you!

[@saltyshamp741]

Get a leak down tester. Pressurize the cylinders and listen for the air escaping. Valve leak can be heard from the oil fill cap on the valve cover. Ring leak can be heard from the dipstick tube.

[@NockRanch]

Good idea thanks!

[@panheadsnake1]

Once you get it started the ring should free up

[@phillipbremer7715]

Warm it up with hot oil heat oil up add it all kinda tricks that heat that moisture got into that system

[@nicolasmendoza6183]

Dude, not an L! Get a quote to get it rebuilt by a shop (they should first inspect to see if even possible and it's gonna be expensive, let me warn you now) which may include getting the engine block surfaced and very likely getting your cylinders bored and sleeves put in... Etc. See if there is any shop that would do if for a discount for an advertisement opportunity. Could even try ad reach out to oter youtubers n see what you can get. Just make sure they are legit, which means the first thing they'll do is offer to inspect it and see if it"s even possible to rebuild it (you may have missed it).I just subscribed and I'll be hoping to see a sweet new engine. Make sure to get lots of footage of the shop work please 🕶

[@NockRanch]

We'll be updating on it here shortly!

[@jerrettholley5087]

The rings in two cylinders are probably stuck out oil in the two cylinders that are low and see if it gets higher

[@NockRanch]

Going to give it a shot!

[@jameswalsh7025]

Throw some oil in those cylinders with low compression. This may boost compression enough to fire up. Getting some heat cycles in those rings might help them come around.

[@chuckster6513]

Here is a thought, Ya remember them little holes in the old head gasket that were not in the same location on the new head gasket ? Could it be that they are passages to where your fuel is introduced into the cylinders ? Your new head gasket may be blocking fuel from the injectors to the cylinders ! The cheap check is to remove the head, clean it up, spray both sides with copper spray paint, let it dry well, then reassemble and give it a try. Worth a try. If you try this, check the block to see if there is a hole in the block that corresponds to the holes in the gasket. That od number on tail of the new gasket number may have been due to a change made in the head on later models. During the late 50's into the 60's the copper paint on head gaskets was a trick used by race engine builders. I still use it on small air cooled engines.

[@NockRanch]

I'll double check, but I looked on the head and the block and neither had holes that lined up! Must be engineering stuff over my head!

[@courseydl]

I have an 1835c, couple years new than yours, they are good machines, i know parts are hard to find for the tmd20 but i know they are out there. Another thing to consider is a 4 cylinder cummins, thats what is in the 1845 wich is an identical machine.

[@richarddavis3007]

Put some heavy oil down the pistons to bring the compression up

[@iselind5157]

No advice, of course, but I loved watching the process! Hope you get some hope.

[@NockRanch]

I hope so too. Thank you!!

[@thomasstewart9368]

Never give up 👌

[@NockRanch]

Aint over til it's over!

[@Paul-dw1qm]

Also you can do a wet cylinder compression test. That will also tell you a better idea.

[@NockRanch]

Great info. Thanks for taking the time for the comment!

[@douglasthompson2740]

A high lift jack, come along, blocks, perhaps a hydraulic jack or two mixed with ingenuity will lift the bucket. You can also disconnect the bucket lines to free the pressure if necessary.

[@NockRanch]

Might have to if the engine is coming out. Thanks!

[@donbavol9672]

Another line of thought would be to get a used Kubota, Perkins, Yanmar or other 3 cylinder diesel engine. They are all over the place littering up junkyards everywhere. I mention Kubota, Perkins and Yanmar because the parts are plentiful. If you can get a Kubota D1503, you can get the entire rebuild kit (cylinder sleeves, valves, pistons, gaskets, bearings, on and on) for under $600. It's not like you are on a huge time crunch, so you could wait for just the right deal.

[@angelgigabyte]

You were close, spray some ether down the breather and make sure your battery is fully charged., then try to start it again.

[@NockRanch]

We'll give it another shot!

[@olronholleran1310]

Check the pistons for cracks. re ring the pistons Valve ob ans check valve timing. Make sure the fuel system is working properly. Grumps

[@Arnthorg]

maybe put heavy oil down the cylinders? it can help seal up the gaps between the cylinders and pistons and increase compression. if you get it running the rings might loosen up a bit after running for a while

[@NockRanch]

That's the hope! Thanks for the comment👍

[@Arnthorg]

alright!

[@garymallard4699]

Seeing rust or corrosion in there is obvious to the Intake being open ( it had no air cleaner or cover ( not sure whether you removed it ) ...and sitting for awhile it will start that process ( which cylinders will depend on valves being open etc..) I never worry about that..like the heads they are carboned and normal looking and actually not bad...but yes wire wheel them clean as it is apart... and water in your cooling circuit also was not anything strange ( due to open areas to moisture penetration ) .. just flush it out good before repairs are done and use later..

[@CSWmanofsteel]

Also built steel tracks and it came with a loader bucket and forks

[@johndziak98]

I repowered my gehl 3510 with an air cooled predator 670. The cost to rebuild the ford industrial gas engine made it not worth fixing, but for 800 bucks the predator engine actually performs great. It's just as capable as it was with the original engine.

[@NockRanch]

Definitely an option. Thanks for the comment!

[@ramblingman8992]

Personally, I would have gone to the trouble of removing the engine and doing a full taredown to check for damage to the bore and conrod bearings before spending out on gaskets. It would have given me an idea of what I needed to replace parts-wise. Also, it's a good idea to check the head surfaces for flatness and lapping in the valves in order to prevent loss of compression due to head warpinng or bad valve seats.

[@arnoldromppai5395]

ANY TIME YOU PULL ANY HEAD off you send it out to have it shaved and valves done, it cost effective, you cant just throw a new gasket on and be done, it will fail and you end up doing it over again, they are never in spec once pulled and never reuse the head bolts, lapping the valves your self a waste of time unless you have the machine to do the valve an seats on the head.

[@nicolasmendoza6183]

THIS!

[@jebx99]

This is a pretty old video at this point, but hope you're continuing with some ATF or Marvel mystery to try and free those stuck rings up. Could try and get some oil in the cylinders to get the compression up and hopfully run and free them. Nice skid you have there and sure seems worth fixing. Hope the drives are OK from dragging it - that's sort of a no-no. I have a IH4130 gasser that I gambled on - not running. I got it running on the trailer and backed it off. Worked out really well and love having around. Love having around. Found a cheap set of forks and it's so handy.

[@johnfisher516]

Great content keep it up, reseat your valves then get the biggest battery you can find n let her rip you were real close she'll start am sure of it, watching from Tasmania cheets John

[@NockRanch]

[@TylersNeighborhoodGarage]

The rings are stuck. Pull the pistons, free the rings up and it should run.

[@NockRanch]

That's the plan!

[@tymetsack5000]

Parts are PITA for these continental's. I have an 89 1835c gas with a tm-20 (identical engine just gas). Mine had a "bent valve" which actually meant the head needed work, bad piston, and other odds and ends. Long story short I've been tinkering with it for months, parts are available but the only place I've had luck is on jensales. Not cheap but they can get the parts. I tried pricing out a repower to a Kubota or any other diesel, and by the time you figure your time/money invested it's cheaper to bite the bullet and rebuild the continental. Then sell it really quick while it has a new engine and buy something that doesn't have a continental. Lol. Keep at it!

[@NockRanch]

Sounds about right to me! Thanks for the comment!

If you cant get this engine going and repower. Consider a deutz air cooled engine like Deutz BF3M for example. These motors are a dime a dozen used in many different applications, no coolant, and are pretty neat engines. I messed with a BF4M in a bobcat skid steer and enjoyed rebuilding it.

[@NockRanch]

Awesome thank you!

If you can get it running that compression, we’ll come up

[@NockRanch]

That's the hope!

[@chrisbailey459]

Get some extra juice on the battery power, I would use some WD40 sprayed into the intake when it is being cranked over you should hear a change in the cranking sound then try some engine start it’s maybe 50/50 if it will play the game key will be getting the engine cranking as fast as you can another trick is to put a hot air gun in the intake for ten minutes. Good luck . Regards Chris Bailey.

[@NockRanch]

Thank you!

[@Mad.Man.Marine]

Sounds like she has stuck rings on two cylinders. Which makes total sense with two of them having water in them. If you can get it to fire for a little bit they will most likely come free.

[@markthompson7505]

Don't give up on it $1500 more into the $1500 you paid for it is cheaper than anything else your gonna be able to find, but hell you already had the head off so pulling the short block isn't that much more work and you'd probably get by with just new rings and a hone job, but all that aside this machine is going to run right now!!! You're just gonna need more engine speed,so put jumper cables and a jump box, and she will start!!!

Repower time

[@Routh-family-farms]

Rings are stuck on 2&3 ive used bar and chain oil and stick it in the cylinder sometimes it will raise compression just enough to get to poo off. The. Run the piss out of it and get it hot and ahell be alright!

[@carlkoeller2276]

O so close good strong battery and a charger on 200 kill amps it will turn over faster and build compression

Repowering won't be hard. There generally isn't anything special about mating up to the drive pumps with the flywheel. I repowered a thomas skid steer with a Perkins to a v1902 Kubota. There was next to no fab involved except that I had to replace the reefer oil pan because of clearance issues. Repower all the way with something more common like a Cummins or Kubota.

Good advice. Thanks for the comment!
