Put those new bins to capacity next fall.

[@timothyschofield8046]

Nick, I understood your combine modifications perfectly. The approach had the desired effect required. Well done guys. What l didn't understand is that a certain machinery manufacturer, knowing yields were going to be significantly challenged this year, missed a marketing opportunity trick and should of provided the necessary parts required. A Rethink productivity alteration. Thus showing a visual explanation along with your verbal explanation. Keep up the fantastic content. I always look forward to seeing the next video. .

Did you check the radiator cap to see if it pressurizes? The engine can get cavitation were air bubbles form on the cylinder sleeve and cause pitting. A good diesel anitfreeze should have chemicals to help stop that. Adept Ape is a diesel Cat mechanic and did a good explanation of the cavitation. Hope you have a very safe harvest and your families stay healthy.

[@donaldjrchappell6800]

Nick, something else to check on that Deere, as well as any radiator of a few decades. The cooling fines between the cores that get bent over from things touching them. Double check them for fatigue, sometimes they will get week and as air hits them or is being sucked past them, they will fold over and block the air. We had a truck that would idle fine, but going down the road the temp would climb. Checked everything. Put it on a dyno, it was fine. Stuck a fan in front of it and watched the fines fold over and the temp head for the red.

[@robertpayne2717]

One problem i always had a problem with was the design with John Deere new Generation 4020s up through the 40 series was the placement of the fuel tank and hydraulic oil cooler and the hydralic Lines so close to the radiator...too much oil in the vicinity of the radiator oil and accidentally spilled fuel plus dust equals clogged radiators. We had problems with one of our 4020s and our 4520....plus we pushed them two hard in most field tillage operations. And also John Deere did use dual thermostats which was good because very seldom was the problem of both failing at the same time....so some circulation was always maintained....

[@weijingburr2392]

I harvest zero bushel wheat, and I think you need more whatits in the back of the heehaw especially when it's shmorged but sometimes when it's not. It's not so much that people have an opinion it's that we decide to share them like it's gospel, disregarding the fact that the time and the ground is that time and that ground. Even more fascinating is the realization that most experts, aren't. I'd hazard to say all experts, aren't. There is no substitute for the lessons from doing, or from the indelible lesson of pain. No amount of expertise will ever substitute for time spent working with your hands. I enjoy your videos, not so much the farming, but the work. There's nothing more relaxing than watching someone else work. Thank you.

I have seen the failed pistons and liners from a 4020 that ran automotive coolant. Straight water will run cooler, but don’t run that way long unless you add a conditioner. You need the good diesel coolant to prevent cavitation and erosion of the engine cylinder liners.

[@gerryspang5917]

Straight water does not run cooler, have done test with it. also anti freeze boils at higher temps than water. Stay safe my friend

[@ke6gwf]

Exactly. It used to be "antifreeze", now it's "coolant", and has anti corrosion additives, heat transfer additives, anti cavitation additives, as well as raising the boiling point of the water so you don't boil over as soon. You never want to run straight water in an engine, especially not a diesel.

[@fowletm1992]

It's a 4020 Shes making 100hp out of 6lts roughly It's no modern deisel doing 200hp out of 3lts at 3.5k rpm Water would be just fine apart from freezing It would be way better for it than sone of the additives in modern coolant reacting with 50yr old seals When the engines were designed they were most likely planning on straight water in the radiator back in the mid 60s or earlier

[@ke6gwf]

@@fowletm1992 can you show me from a JD manual that straight water is all right? They have known about corrosion and boiling points since long before the 60's, and the people designing the modern coolants also know about the types of seals in the engines. But this is why you should use the exact type of coolant (there are many different ASTM and Manufacturer specs for exact coolant chemistry) actually recommended by the manufacturer, because it will be designed to both protect the metal, and also be compatible with the seals. And even if they designed it back in the day for water, more recently they discovered the issues of galvanic corrosion (when they started using brass and copper radiators), and especially the major issue of cavitation erosion of the cylinder sleeves, and so the coolant technology to prevent the corrosion issues and the cavitation damage is relatively recent innovation, and helps old engines too. I mean, it wasn't long ago that Ford had major issues with it, and had to change the formulation of the recommended coolant to stop engines dying early.

Years ago a good friend told to mix distilled water with the antifreeze instead of water. Been running it in my N14 Cummins for years now and radiator is clean no calcium build up . 👍

[@uppsalahazzemarkstedt2759]

I always use filtered deionised distilled water into my radiators blended with ordinary radiator/pump protection fluids or antifreeze. Use a lot of this and have a cheap to use own water treatment equipment to produce about 10 liters an hour and fill it in cans and barrels. Also to fill steam-irons, thinning paint, finish cleaning vehicles, batteries and closed circuit water heating/cooling systems and more. Then you don't have any calcium deposits or salts in water!

Same person was running an R65 Gleaner and went to cross a culvert in a field and the culvert collapsed. Threw him into the window again and knocked him out. He came to with the combine wheels spinning and half the corn head still running and him kissed up to the windshield. If he would have gone through, it would have been curtains. My cousin had a sinkhole open up under his R65 and he got to kiss the windshield too. So now I buckle up in my combine.

Great you use that along with the American Flag. Many thanks Welkers. Thanks to Nick for clarity on the combine grates inside, only cover the screens when dealing with low bushel grain. When back in high bushel grain then remove the covers on the grates. The radiator on the old John Deere might have been the problem. Lots of junk came out during the flushing process. Hopefully it will not overheat now. Good work guys. Dad got the skid plates on the header in good order and ready for the field. You are in the wheat harvest fields now so hope most of it has respectable production. Do understand it is a hard year. Hang in there all!!!! Colby is enjoying his combine ride.

Great comment about seatbelt use. You may want to re-think running just plain water in the John Deere 4520. Tractor anti-freeze used in diesel engines normally have SCA's (supplimental cooling additives) to prevent cavitation especially in the cylinder liners as well as control acidity levels. Plain water does not give much protection.
