Blessed With A Lemon!! Broke Again Ep. 18

[@brandonwurl4228]

Hey Chet from one farmer to another when climbing under the feeder house put down your safety stop. Knew a guy that got crushed when a hose fitting blew at the wrong time. Quick way to make sure you make it home safe.

[@1jumbox]

Brody is a champion! He grabs the reality and goes with it! Larsons farm is blessed with a well rounded crew!!

[@SchrottiJr]

And never in too bad a mood.

[@CDFCaptain93]

My best memories of working on the farm is when dad brought me lunch. He would pick up a whole rotisserie chicken or ribs from the local meat market, a loaf of bread and six pack of Dr. Pepper and he and I would eat on the tail gate of his truck. The was the best tasting chicken ever.

[@stone90wall]

Dougo, thanks for letting us see the IH 1086 working. Enjoy watching the older equipment no matter the color!

[@HAGGIS420]

i 2nd this comment, i also believe that the battery is totally gone, if its dropped to low then it wont fully charge, it needs taken of and charged and tested

[@brucehislop8860]

For the alternator on your International tractor, there are two types of alternators used in that vintage of machinery... a one wire and a 3 wire version. When you had the alternator rebuilt, the rebuilder might have installed a one-wire regulator instead of the proper 3-wire regulator. A 3 wire regulator has an Exciter wire that helps get the alternator working, especially at low RPMs. A one-wire alternator depends on some magnetism still being in the rotor from the last time you used the tractor... which might have been weeks or months before. You usually need to rev the engine up to get it to start working, and a diesel does rev very high compared to a gas engine. So my bet is either the rebuilder did not install a proper 3 wire regulator, or the exciter wire is not providing power to the alternator when the engine key is turned ON.

[@dieselman8968]

Have you considered adding a Lincoln Auto Greasing System to your heads and combine? They use them in mining equipment, big trucks, plow trucks, and many other applications. They’re also fairly affordable. I believe Michigan Fluid Power sells and installs them. If you need it, I could give you a contact for them.

[@lisaharvey4373]

WOW Mom what a super nice thing to do for the Guys and man does it Look Good!!!!!!

[@SteveNicoson-u1i]

Thanks for another great content video during harvest season. It was certainly interesting and enjoyable to watch. This has been breakdown day for sure. Chet was able to fix his in the field and Brody had to go to the shop to fix his. Thanks to kibble service tech for coming to help get Brody’s combine going. Appreciated I am sure. Busy busy time with harvest right now. Like the new shirt Amy had on. Heard there were more new shirts. Huge Thanks to Amy for bringing lunch out to the field for all of the workers. Amy your huge breakfast lunch’s are liked by everyone that is for sure!!!! Thanks again Amy!!!!!!!!!! Thanks to Dougo for going to South Dakota to get parts for Brody’s machine. Guess that is about it. Considering how much wear and tear combined get I guess one should expect some unfortunate parts to break. You all get them going again pretty soon. Nice work Larsons and kibble. You all take care. The Iowa farm boy. Steve.

[@Hogzsnotzv2]

Lunch in the field by mom …. The best!

[@Mr1965impala]

Farm Moms are awesome!

[@marshallthews2333]

I fixed my always looking for tools by having multiple sets in different shops/vehicles. Saves more time than it cost.

[@guygfm4243]

Lovely mum looks after you all

[@andrewclutterbuck1987]

I spend hours looking for STUFF that I know I put back in the right place

[@3sons66]

Love my NOCO jump starter! It's saved me on the lake when my alternator died and hooked it up to get me back to the dock and started my Class A diesel that was completely dead with no problems.

[@willyfindlay4398]

God Bless your Mum for feeding the little boys.😊😅😊

[@jerryfischer3988]

I've always said I spend half my time looking for stuff! Everything has a place and in it's place it should be!

[@firesilver123ify]

I think the shirt would make a perfect onesie for bringing the baby home!!!

[@ericeel1995]

12:10 seems like half my life most of the time. Can't find anything. Sometimes it might be faster just to go get a new one instead of finding it. By the time said item has been found, you may or may not have forgotten what you even needed it for.

[@lstone.09]

Awesome video Chet 🚜🚜🚜 Amy is definitely a trooper. 🫶🫶🫶

[@davidmarsland7042]

Your mom is a wonderful and beautiful woman

[@volvojohn9036]

If the alternator seems to not start charging for an hour, one possibility is the engine front crank pulley has a "harmonic balancer" that is slipping, not turning the alternator fast enough to charge until the rubber gets hot. You would think it would squeal but they almost never do.

[@bethknapp2736]

Always enjoy seeing Amy on here. Chet shirt will def be on my next Larson order.

[@ssboot5663]

Your videos and comments brighten my day! Great looking lunch too Mrs. L!

[@hawks2252]

Here ya go Dougo - I totally organized my garage (took quite a while) and my brother comes over to change an alternator in his truck. the garage looks like a tornado went through it. tools left everywhere. Over an alternator (should be a ratchet, a socket and a pry bar)- Oh yah - I was a little mad.

[@harveystephens6115]

My Dad always said boy if you use something, put it back where you found or got it from The older I get the more that hits home!!!!! Enjoyed video

[@davidkimmel5153]

Great Service. Your dealer is great 👍

[@JakerPete]

Lunch looked very yummy 😋 I love burritos 🌯 😋

[@maxxmich]

she make the best food and great content...

[@Shippfarming]

Chet, you guys should practice putting the safety stop on feeder house cylinders. I want to be able to continue watching Larson Farms.

[@kevinmeyer3884]

I was thinking the same thing! As a farmer, I know it's a pain in the ass! But it's cheap insurance!

[@TheBest-ob1kj]

Lovecwatching. Great videos you just go with it!!❤

[@rasmusakesson5425]

Nice to see a bit from Brody's cam! Great new intro again! thumbs up

All the time I have a grandson

[@unclestinkystudios8480]

1086s have a clutch safety switch or at least the ones we used to have had them

[@amandafurse1132]

This is for Duggo... every day of my life....lol my husband is always looking for stuff... he leaves it out... so what do I do... put it way where it belongs... my husband...is always looking!!!!!...lol😅

[@HarrisHound]

Time for a new colour!

[@joevanells9763]

When working under the feeder house and head you should really put the red safety stops on

[@claudestewart5465]

I always have to remember what I was working on to find what I need. No matter how long it's been.

[@darkker1532]

We had the local machine shop, make a feeder house floor out of AR plate. 5 years running strong so far.

[@salmonhunter7414]

how many acres a season?

[@alexdrockhound9497]

That AR stuff is crazy tough. Made for exactly applications like this. Often used for mining where rocks slide down chutes. Heavy though and gotta be careful how you cut it due to temper and annealing.

[@bryanruppel4564]

Love your Mom

[@swexpress308]

such a cool family

[@elizabethliska5377]

My father had a 79 1486 for about 10 years before it was traded in. Had a few thousand hours on it. It was a good tractor. No repairs done as I remember.

Love the 1086! Drove one a bunch chopping hay and corn silage as a teenager!

[@MarkMorrison-u6t]

I think that combine was made on a Monday or a Friday lol

[@StevenMiller-cx4rr]

Amy is the most important link in the Larson Farms crew! You guys are the best. I’ll give Chet $250 to wear that shirt an entire episode! “𝙄𝙩 𝙞𝙨 𝙬𝙝𝙖𝙩 𝙞𝙩 𝙞𝙨"❤❤❤

[@caravanpwdrblue]

I’ll add $50 to make it $300!

[@jarvislarson6864]

Red harvesters are the way to go...

[@davedunn2124]

Dougo, 1086 alternator. Thats a delco gm alternator and thats what they do. After it warms up a minute you have to rev the engine enough to get excitation in it. Then it will charge even at idle

[@justinboerner2781]

Sometimes with an 86 and 66 series internationals you need to rev them to 3/4 ish throttle to get the alternators to charge just watch your amp gauge and it should jump hopefully that helps duggo

[@firefly93802001]

Make sure to use a usb c fast charger to charge those Noco boost x jump starters also. You will know if it’s fast charging because it will have the little lightning bolt lit up on it. Thus taking less time to charge back up for the next guy.

[@trentwatts4913]

I guess one positive is it didn’t suck all that feeding chain and everything else up into the accelerator

[@randybennett5417]

Nice to see ya using the International.

Big fan of self tapping sheetmetal screws - considering clearances, I suggest Rivets! (MAKITA 18V LXT LITHIUM-ION RIVETER - only $1,515.29 - or a good hand riveter for $45.00)

[@stevecollins1196]

Always love seeing your videos guys much love and respect thanks for sharing ❤❤❤

[@2were5678]

That 1086 cab is in great shape, ours fell apart.

[@erniezsigo3926]

Episode 18 i sure hope one of those corn heads doesn't fall on one of the guys with out putting the safety shield on those hoist under the header. Lost good friend when one fell on him while greasing the header

[@Bowhunters6go8xz6x]

Dougo - A loose or rusted or corroded ground battery cable can cause an alternator not to charge intermittently like after first starting up.

[@jeffbeilke3203]

Looks like little or no maintenance!! Calmer corn head's 🌽, best corn head hands down!! Have run them all!!

[@guydaubenspeck9206]

Getting stiff LOL tell me about it! I picked eight loads today with our tractor and two road picker we will start combining the remainder of it next week. But, tonight I have a very stiff neck from looking over my right shoulder at the picker all day

[@roberthall3462]

Dougo...this comment for you...thx for the info on the jump pack...had our New Holland dealer tell me that this same pack wouldn't work if battery totally dead..."override"! I don't have to look for stuff since I'm a one man show and I always put it back (mostly anyways)...OCD at it's best here in Virginia.

[@mikeboring1293]

Well dougo I to have that issue of not finding stuff even when I put it back where it goes lol 😂, old timers I guess. Dougo rule of thumb is the Equipment needs to run 20 minutes to recharge the energy used from batteries to start the Equipment hope that makes sense. Watch you guys every time

[@LeeGoldman-h3n]

Doug ever since my two boys have grown up and left the nest zero amount of time looking for items before that time maybe 15 to 20 hours a week and that would be a good week a bad week and my brain explodes!...

[@jaygregory5511]

The rule is that, on average, we spend 80% of the total elapsed time looking for tools or equipment and 20% of the total elapsed time actually doing the work 🤪🤪🤪

[@johnnye747]

Hi Doug, we have a dairy with about 80 employees. By far my biggest beef is getting smart, educated people to clean up after themselves, put things back for the next guy, no trash left in machines and keep your work trucks clean. I was curious on 1086 alternator. If it got modified to a one wire system, the alternator won’t excite and start charging until you wind the engine up most of the way until you see voltmeter needle pop up. You appear to be a gentle operator and in a short session you might never rev the engine that much is my thought….. Thanks for your thoughts and humor. John

[@joescheller6680]

Running two combines is your problem. Shut one off and get some combining done

Doubt they ever will since kibble gives them such good service.

[@Grandpaw2511]

Well, Dougo, misplaced tools are a pet peeve of mine. When I'm done with a tool it always goes home (where it belongs) and if I need it again, I know where it is. 🙂

Yes please seriously. Everytime. Couple years back my brother in law found his best friend under the header. Failed hose. You never know. Safety First Always.

[@tallboy49]

And Dougo, never stand beside the tractor to start it. I know two farmers who did exactly what you did and both were run over and received a smashed pelvis from which they never fully recovered.

[@paulprigge1209]

@@tallboy49 most of us check make sure the tractor is not in gear. There’s also a safety switch on some of them. Tractor will not start with tractor and gear. Working on 4020 there’s a safety switch there this past week. Yes, we had a friend get ran over doing that and we remember.

[@paulprigge1209]

⁠@@tallboy49 no he was not standing in front of the wheel. He was reaching over and yes, he was paying attention what he was doing. He made a comment about that.

you can take them off in the off season and weld that edge and some of those lines like on excavator buckets that help with wear but sharpen the welded harden steel edge back on them would extend there life as well
