[@ejharrop1416]

The look of unabashed joy on Nicks face as the Bud started is priceless. No way to fake that, lol. Thank you, take care and God bless.

[@billhodges5161]

Pray for precipitation for the Welker's. Let's have a better 2023.

[@tyler3148]

It’s good to see you’ve got some snow for spring

[@chunkychambers1530]

Who needs a freezer for your bushing when you can just put them outside 😂😂

[@remigagne450]

I just want to take a minute or two to express my appreciation to the Welker family. I just went through a marathon of watching your videos during the last few months and I must say I'm impressed. Starting from a wave board ride on the Welker's lake to conceiving, construction, fixing things, repairing all kinds of stuff. My highlights are, first to a man with his two sons, seeding the grounds, but also family values, that is commendable. I appreciate that there is no challenge to tough to give it a try. Even if you don't have the knowledge as of yet about fixing something, you are always open to getting in more knowledge, and finally, as Bob says, "Anyways, let's do this." I really like Bob's puns to the point I also call him Pun Bob Farm Pants (Just a kind reference to Sponge Bob square pants. Well, Nick is Hollywood and Scott Leg Arms. Bob also needs a nickname). I also really appreciate the collaborations with other KZbinrs. All in all, kudos Welkers! An appreciative farming video watcher up north!

[@WelkerFarms]

Really appreciate your kind comment! This year is full of exciting things to come!

[@Krog12354]

You guys need a bore scope. When you have the injectors out, it would be the perfect time to inspect the cylinder bores.

[@mr19471985]

SO happy for you with what you have done to keep the American farm tradition alive and well.

[@larrydavidson3402]

This family does a bunch of their own work on the equipment they have and do an excellent job on all of it.

[@grantdubridge7995]

Doesn't everybody?😀

[@oilersridersbluejays]

I farm with pretty much 1980s and 1990s equipment and a smaller farmer here in Saskatchewan. You learn to be a mechanic pretty quick unless it’s a really big and technical job. Profit margins are always tight for farmers no matter the amount of acres, and a mechanic’s bill is something that I really avoid unless absolutely necessary. I literally know no farmers who don’t work on their own equipment that they own outright.

[@FishFind3000]

@@oilersridersbluejays that plus it gets slow in the winter so you have time and instead of spending money you can save some.

[@jackbannock3458]

​@FishFind3000 ya if you have a heated shop working on stuff in the winter is fine lol.

[@stephenbrown571]

I was going too say something about. Brothers trying too smoke each other out. The I saw your dad climbing out of the cab. 😂😂

[@doug1883]

Why was I so excited when she started up?! Am I the only one? Ha

[@2491kridge]

That smile you get when the Big Bud cranks up after all that work, that’s what it’s all about lol

[@deblarsen8528]

Howdy! Holy Cow! When BIG BUD started up it was totally AWESOME! I could smell that wonderful exhaust in my living room! 👍 Bob, you sure move snow FAST! It was fun.... Thank You for taking us along for the ride! Until your next video ~~~ Stay safe, healthy, warm and happy!

[@rayanderson4119]

The beast lives again! So sweet to hear her roar again! Nice job!

[@WelkerFarms]

Yes! Thank you!

[@sallydunbar1683]

That CanAm really moves! We caught your drift, Mr Bob! 😉

[@fenlandrob6203]

She’s alive!! Soon she’ll be seeding your fields for you, nice bit of snow moving by Bob and Coby. Rob from the 🇬🇧🍺

[@UncleManuel]

Seems like Nick injected some life back into the Big Bud... 😁😎🤟

[@Lnmwr]

🤦‍♂

[@danrose3233]

That was pops cranking the KTA and rolling coal on startup!

[@paxbonum4683]

That smile on your face Nick when pin was rebuilt and then when it started up... The look of humble pride in a job well done. Amazing effort, knowledge, and knowhow. What a blessing to be able to work on and fix such an iconic piece of equipment to keep it in working order. Great job. Thanks for sharing the project. God bless

[@SoybeanFarmer3300]

Thank you very much for how you've always put "GOD BLESS" at the end of the video. It means a lot to me. Nick I really enjoyed the expression on your face when that Bud cranked. 🙂🙏🙂

[@chrissyfrancis8952]

I just love Mr Welker watching over Nick’s shoulder as he turns that pin. Who do you think taught & nurtured Nick & Scott all the skills they have? They’ll pass those skills on to their kids. Love of family farmers!

[@jeromejacobsen2130]

To paraphrase Hannibal Smith - "I love it when a Big Bud comes together."

[@remmiemax3624]

If something needs to be: fixed, adjusted, created, repaired, & _____ ask a Farmer [Welker] BTW, the black smoke keeps the "snow flies" away!!! God Bless!!!!!

[@danielbremner7805]

I'm really glad that you have snow to push around. Hoping that means alot of moisture in the soil that can be used to make crops grow!

[@bettyjo5024]

LOL You looked a bit surprise, Nick when the bud started. Awesome work. You all are so Bless to build or rebuild equipment on your farm. Awesome video. Would loved to seen more snow removing by your dad. Wow lots of moisture on the fields this will be. Praying for all your crops to triple for you all. God Bless you all.

[@ginggur17]

Nothing more satisfying than hearing a motor run after doing in depth work on it. 👍👍🇬🇧🇺🇸

[@billwhitman1529]

Okay Scott, you've taken enough of a vacation from the shop. Nick can trip along as a mechanic with dad looking over his shoulder but the pure talent as a mechanic that Scott brings is so valuable to this farm and besides that... we miss seeing his bright and shinning face. Okay, so Scott makes a cameo appearance. Nick, your contribution to the farm in technology and marketing cannot be overlooked. The teamwork on this farm is exactly what it takes to run a successful farm/ranch in this day and age.

[@jim-xj4ub]

Good to see that you have a Torque wrench as old as mine.

[@hughstephenson2957]

Me too.. nuthin better than an old "click" when u hit your mark.. no annoying "beep"

[@oilersridersbluejays]

Your torque wrench clicks?!

[@robinredman5192]

Way to Pin it down Nick, if you get my drift Bob!! Dad's got your back Nick, er, I mean shoulder (looking over your)... 😁 Good to see Scott's smile as well. God bless the Welker Farms Family. John here, from the back-roads of Northeastern Tennessee. 🙏

[@paulwollman]

Big Bud should give you folks one of the new models coming out for a season . Just as a thank you for promoting and being so loyal to the brand.

[@paulmccallum4229]

I don't think Case would appreciate that :D

[@mikecriner8463]

I love watching you guys work on your equipment. I used to do a lot of my own car repairs but now days you need a computer,a lift, and numerous other special tools. Good memories!

[@billsargent3407]

Lets see what the longest La Nina going away does for you. I hope there is a decent El Nino to get you a well earned harvest

[@fishin11]

Love your videos! Being a retired mechanic and engine rebuilder, when torquing nuts and bolts ALWAYS have second hand on the head of torque wrench to keep socket with extension straight, and use as short as possible socket, extensions, etc, it DOES make a difference!

[@rdyardie]

Step by step, plus organization almost always ensures success when doing engine work. The labor is often the most expensive part of repair. Thank you for explaining your steps. 😊

[@erickamekonapeper4007]

20:47 I was going to go home sad without hearing from Dad 😢! Thanks for bringing Kobe I have to see him EVERY TIME PLEASE ❤️ God Bless you! ❤️🖖🏼🇺🇸

[@davelaman259]

Look at the new guy!!! Hands were too dry from all the saw dust, needed some moisturizing oil!!

[@joebeach7759]

Hopefully that snow will put some moisture in the ground. I hope with all the snow out west, Lake Meade fills back up. Thankfully, we are due for an overly wet year. That should help all the farmers.

[@edduffer1637]

I also think that with the love and care that the Welkers take with these Big Buds... They should be among the first to get the new BB 700 from the new factory.. Even if it's just for a short shake down run to test for bugs before they actually get released to the general public...

[@rodpasichnyk9140]

A few inches of moisture, nice!😇

[@BrianGLee-bc7hj]

Always a Good feeling when things go back together and things run

[@kopenhagenkid]

Great job plowing snow ❄️ Bob and Coby

[@martini9500]

Kind of like a Bud dentist filling cavities. Nice work.

[@MartyCantrell]

I like big buds and I cannot lie...

[@TheMSTWNTD]

You can see the fly really got you. Hope you feel back to 100 percent soon. Good job on the big bud. Stay blessed.

[@timothybailey7118]

Grateful every time I see moisture -in any form- on the ground there.

[@alisciamarotta3888]

Just a glimpse of LEGARMS checking up on you, 😂 You got this..... he's back home trying to finish the honey do list!

[@possleaholsteinspossbrofar8429]

Next time put the pin in the leith and weld all the way around it. Pin likely bent from too much heat on one side. Just a tip not telling you what to do.

[@Eric-dr5bj]

Cutting edge engineering is a great reference for large machine welding and lathe work

[@kopenhagenkid]

Good luck getting your big bud going Welker Farms

[@sleepythinker5674]

Would it work to clean out the injectors like you do a shotgun barrel? Make a rod with a slit and use some Hoppes, and a rag. Just a thought. Nice work getting her back together!

[@badgerpa9]

NIce job on the engine work. We have some snow tonight but supposed to be up to 12 inches tomorrow night, wish I could send some of it your way. Hope your families stay safe and healthy.

[@UndersheriffChapman]

God bless Welker family. I hope you guys stay safe. Love you guys. Keep up the good work and hope this year is good to you guys

[@WelkerFarms]

Thanks Metroplex! God bless!

[@agentcrm]

You guys need to buy a 4 jaw chuck for your lathe. So you can chuck those pins up accurately and keep them round.

[@markyoull6744]

nice guest appearance by leg arms god bless welkers

[@scottboese6892]

Glad you got some snow

[@marcelocunico5341]

Great vídeo Welkers.

[@manifold1476]

11:10 Mebbe the moisture got into the old engine head through the vent that you're harvesting. I'd try looking for rust under the one next to it - it's only three bolts.

[@gilleslepeytre7449]

Bon soir la famille Welker super video de reparation du Bud super boulo Nick bonne fin semaine a tous

[@mingthemerciless6855]

Like to see more maintenance videos on the Big Bud and other vehicles. Can't wait til spring planting.

[@WelkerFarms]

More to come!

[@Dirtybootsboy69]

Hi guys cracking job, was wondering if we get to see any mor videos on leg arms house build I really enjoyed seeing the project, keep up the great content.

[@timothyabraham2228]

Proper tool for the job, nick ? NOT !! but got job done.. was nice to see all 3 Welker men folk again in 1 video !!

[@died4us590]

I bought some steel sprayer cans on the jungle site, and you can fill them with wd-40, brake clean, and other chemicals that aren't water based, and then you just use a compressor to pressurise them. They are called sure shot, made in the US, and they also have an aluminum version as well. The price of wd-40, and brake and parts cleaner in the cans has gone up significantly in price, so i buy the big containers, pour them in, add air, and it actually lasts longer as well. Maybe you already have some, but if not, it sure is cheaper. G-d bless you all.

[@thomaslyon2112]

Everything’s a hammer! Hope you get enough moisture this year. 😊

[@2509498788]

Fun to watch

[@kopenhagenkid]

Great video Nick and LegArms

[@kamurray67]

I know you need all the moister on the ground you can get and so do we but I am so over snow and cold this year. I would rather it just warm up and rain. Ready for short sleeves and green plants

[@geraldsundberg3610]

Use a brass brush from a shotgun cleaning kit to clean the injector holes.

[@WelkerFarms]

That's a great idea.

[@bmw1894]

But brass is harder than copper, so a nylon bristled bottle brush would be best.

[@timmybailey2514]

nice to see you got some moisture on that land

[@edcew8236]

Ancient torque wrench!!

[@stevenicoson6670]

Thanks for another great video. It was interesting and enjoyable. Bob, good work with the blade on the four by four. You really moved some snow. Of course Toby helped. Good work on the big bud. Nick you are doing great with the injectors. You take your time and do what the book says. Outstanding service work Nick and others that helped. Come spring, that should make a difference on performance of the big bud. Nice work. My compliments to you Nick and Bob for your lathe work and such. You all just hop to it and make or adjust what you need to. Amazing skills you all have. I have never used A lathe so have no idea how to even turn it on-ha. You make it look easy. Thanks for an interesting and enjoyable video. Great work on BigBud. Getting ready for spring. Thanks for everything Welkers. May god watch over you. With my blessings. The Iowa Farm Boy.

[@JL-yl8gd]

Hope the snow melts slow and moistens that ground nice and deep

[@michaelbaumgardner2530]

Always do the injectors when running the rack,that's the way I was taught on the NTC series

[@delbutler885]

Michael Baumgartner that KTA is not set anything like an NTC at all. They are as different as a cat 3406 and an NTC.

Close is good when you don't have the tools. But get the tools and adjust it asap.

[@jaybernieschoep3491]

That is one way to pile it on Bob.

[@darrensydorko4976]

The heating and cooling of a cold storage building creates condensation pour some atf under the rocker boxes once and a while help keep it lubed in there

I'm sure glad you guys are getting snow, you need the moisture. Love the Big Bud!

[@steveneal2706]

great video guys. sure hope the injectors do good

[@oilersridersbluejays]

I did the same to the Cummins on my Versatile 976 last winter. It’s fairly simple of a job but I did get a bit anxious doing it! Hope all is well down there on the other side of the 49th! I’m actually not too terribly far away from you just in Saskatchewan a little ways. Just finished moving out wheat and oats and now waiting for warm weather and calves to come, and hopefully in that order!

[@banjobenson9348]

looks like a good start on spring moisture.

[@cthulhu8977]

If I recall J-1853 is the tool for setting Detroit injectors. Though last time I set one was around '96 so could be wrong. Shouldn't be too much for the tool, and is just as easy as setting the valves. No need to pay someone.

[@MikeCris]

I see your dad keeps making good progress on cleaning the walls/ceiling...looks great.

[@davidwpinkston4226]

about halfway in, i realized i was witnessing history. well done.

[@ceciliacicchinelli4797]

No bashing but we use PARKER O LUBE on all o-rings as motor oil will let injector o-rings roll. We also use Lucas additive, Seems to be a heat sink for gears.

[@dennislamers986]

Leg Arms didn't last to long. Are we gonna see anymore house videos?. Way to go guys, it's great to see that Bud running again.

[@WelkerFarms]

Soon! He's been pretty tied up at his house but will have a new video coming.

[@tagoooU]

A beam type torque wrench is calibrated from the pivot point the handle rotates on, keep the handle centered on the pivot. Love the shpw!!!

[@ollie-lk5dx]

It's a really good idea to get the injectors set right. To tight you wreck a injector or break a rocker or bend a rod. To loose and you loose performance.

[@WelkerFarms]

I hear you, doesn't make me sleep well knowing they were not set. I might need to have a mechanic come out and set them.
