Bought a Used Skid Steer made in China

[@gusgone4527]

Seller seems like a good guy.

[@SkaterStimm]

yep north eastern accent and personality, they are a ton of fun to hang out with.

[@dougbell6246]

Another great Mustie 1 video. Happy Thanksgiving from Texas.

[@brianelliot2719]

Thanks Darren; great to see Brian again.😊

[@neilhowe2665]

A pleasant surprise 🎉😊😊😊

[@jpjude68]

i find it hilarious that the skid steer's brand is "racoon" x)

[@TechGorilla1987]

And it's name is "Smoky"

[@M.TTT.]

its got that virus

[@Supercruiser66]

Someone must have seen deer, bobcat, mustang, etc and thought what was a similarly impressive animal

[@tywebbgolfenthusiast8950]

The emblem looks more like a badger. Which would actually be a good name for a digging machine.

[@SkaterStimm]

spelt wrong and everything.

[@Jouco]

Good guy seller and a Good guy buyer = great content! That logsplitter is nice, wouldn't mind owning one myself

[@MrButtonpresser]

Bonus time! Another great video.

[@JamieCameron-Mackintosh-z7c]

You know it's got to be a quality machine when the seller is pretty much bribing you to take it. "If you have it I'll throw in all this stuff as well..." 😂

[@elmobklshf]

I use guitar strings for wires to clear out small hoses and passages. Love your channel, you're very knowledgeable and interesting.

[@jjyemg2397]

Grab that troybilt tiller while you're there

[@matthewmcmaster2731]

The Racoon.... it should be called The Turtle. 🐢 I never saw a skid steer so slow.

[@JamieCameron-Mackintosh-z7c]

At least there's little danger of anyone getting it stuck face down on the bucket.

[@georgec7199]

Just like the old days, a Mustie Surprise Wednesday. Talk about Thanksgiving! Thanks Darren from George in Danvers.

[@Chris-Fennimore]

My tractor had the same symptom while trying to start. It was a loose main ground from the battery to the frame.

[@michael61985]

Thats a cool trailer I don't think i remember seeing one do that

[@dinosaur6756]

It's like a life-size Tonka Truck. Made in China. I'd never get out of that thing. It would be like my exo-suit, especially with the grapple-bucket. I'd be grappling all sorts of shizit, all day long.

[@philipsearls1946]

Ah yes, The Chinese Racoon, Very Loomy inside and no Lust underneath. Will last you very short time. Lol. Good to see you on a Wednesday.

[@JamieCameron-Mackintosh-z7c]

It's not politically correct to find that funny... But I do 🤣

[@thedevilinthecircuit1414]

You can use a piece of wound guitar string (the low E or A string) in a drill like a Roto Rooter. The windings allow it to work like a speedometer cable and you can fish it in pretty far.

[@dinosaur6756]

Hydraulic systems are amazing. So simple, yet so incredibly effective. Especially when you start adding lines and different dimensions of lines.

[@gepettoe]

Wow mustie on a Wednesday. Now I have to put off making apple pies for an hour! 😂

[@jakeduffin4626]

Excellent video! I really enjoyed it! Thank you for sharing with us!

[@michaelparker4598]

That brand name is hilarious 😂

[@ZiggZagg11]

I'll bet he was so glad to get rid of that... 👀

[@debcamp2359]

Thanks 4 the surprise. China! Bobcats eat raccoons? Eeeuuuoooh!

[@taurota1554]

Thanks for sharing and taking us along

[@prkrngr27]

I'll bet you could interview the guy that sold that for an entire day and he's still be telling ya all the things tricks and things about that unit.

[@raycasson1774]

A nice mid-week surprise, happy turkey day Mustie..Detroit watching..

[@richardmoore335]

Nice to see Bryan again

[@simmonsrenos9111]

Nice little unit😊..ol'smokey

[@loucinci3922]

Enjoyed the video. Thanks for sharing

[@jimobrien8675]

good morning Mustie1, thanks for your shows and your demeanor.

[@MGower4465]

Designers really should take riutine maintenance like oil changes into account when they work.

[@M.TTT.]

eh, no one does those silly oil changes anyways - overrated

[@fred-san]

Sur voiture europe, neuve, ils mettent par exemple 2 litres d'huile au lieu de 3 (depuis niveau huile au tableau de bord), tu ne t'en apercois qu'apres 1.000km, donc contre-visite passée en concession, et cela a deja bien usé moteur -- ce qu'ils veulent. Ou pretendent que si l'on rodait un style a bille, on ne rode plus un stylo a plume Dupont (haut de gamme), car precision ajustements de pieces (alors que c'est l'inverse donc, moins il y a de jeu plus il y a de rodage-usure) Voir 1 million de kilométres moteur (utlitaire voiture....). Ils font justte prechauffage systématique de 10 minutes, et roulent cool etc

[@SkaterStimm]

Sometimes it comes down to product managers making a call to get things finished so they can hit deadlines. Engineers / designers will design a super accessible engine, then the product manager will see the cost required to do that and go with a cheaper faster solution that will get them to production.

[@sidneylarkin7002]

Brian is there to help you, top man.

[@gordbaker896]

Is he 'Signing?'

[@shin-pad1052]

A midweek Mustie treat to enjoy… thank you 👍🏼

[@markbrown6236]

Wouldn't be a classic Musti1 video without a carb teardown.

[@wes11bravo]

The day before Thanksgiving, sitting in my bucket truck. The boss makes a surprise job inspection. He asks, "Is that video work related?" I reply, "Absolutely." Happy Thanksgiving, all my fellow subscribers.

[@littlebasher3959]

Now i have to pretend I'm working for the next 50 mins while i watch this. 😁

[@justonnie]

No, not a Bobcat........A RACOON!!!

[@assessor1276]

You had me chuckling at the words “quality” and “Chinese” in the same sentence.

[@SlartiMarvinbartfast]

Just stick the word "bad" in front of "quality" and you're good to go. 🙂 That said, China CAN produce high quality goods, it's those which are made DOWN to a price that are the bad ones, this particularly applies to any really cheap stuff that has a very short lifespan and ends up in the nearest garbage bin, on the sidewalk, etc. Electronics are a sore point - just one cheap component (often a capacitor worth a few cents or far less) in an electronics circuit can cause it to fail and most people then end up throwing the device away. So that's more wasted money, more landfill .........

[@mikewerner3797]

And the Raccoon decal😀

[@Toby_the_Glen]

Why are consumers buying this Chinese crap? Isn't there a US made cheap alternative?

[@SlartiMarvinbartfast]

@@Toby_the_Glen Because of worker's rights in the US they are paid more than their sweat shop Chinese counterparts. People understandably want to pay as little as possible for their goods so they go for the cheap Chinese tat, not realising that it's not cost effective because it won't last long.

[@StrawDragon]

What a treat! I havent seen a midweek Mustie1 video in a long time!

[@drewsteitz6321]

Musties on the skids

[@johnreecer6839]

Wouldn’t be a mustie video without a leak and starter issue

[@dont-want-no-wrench]

raccoon is a pretty good name, i would prefer marmot

[@billyscott922]

A rare Wednesday Mustie…..Happy Thanksgiving !!!!

[@cbcmediaadmin]

He who has the most toys WINS!! Have fun!! Happy Turkey Day!!

[@radicalrepairs3888]

you got it working as usual , you do good work

[@U.P_SCUBA]

Working in hydraulics and watch this its interesting to see the conclusion people come up with. Like the suction hose going above the pump to then come down.

[@M.TTT.]

lol yeah, bit odd looking, but work with what ya got in a "compact" space I guess. Metal pipe is a lot cheaper than hydraulic hoses.

[@gutsngorrrr]

It's a midweek Mustie special, always good when we get one of these

[@billyhaddock5540]

Mustie1, good start on getting the log splitter to work good. now on to the skid steer..

[@RDEnduro]

Skidsteers hold their value forever, i wish the market here did get some cheap chinese option for homeowners

[@Robbie..Ha-Navi]

if it has a turbo, dont load it stack to the wind,. it spin the turbo backwards when towing and burns them out, i never park anything so wind blows in the exhaust when driving

[@M.TTT.]

interesting, never heard of that before. Makes sense though.

[@michaelcasey-uu3lr]

Know it all until you don't 🙏

[@oakridgestars]

Nothing runs like a Racoon.

[@dont-want-no-wrench]

he wants you to know everything he knows about it, that is great.

[@richardwarnock2789]

Happy Thanksgiving to Mustie One family and friends!!!; ) Nice New Toy to play with this Winter!!!; )

[@ollyalme]

Bonus Mustie video in the middle of the week. That's a good week, I say!

[@welshy8216]

100% love these Wednesday Mustie1 videos 😀 1 a month would be great Darren

[@joaoc_PT]

Mid-week Mustie1 video? AWESOME!

[@Leroys_Stuff]

Good morning everyone happy Thanksgiving to you and everyone here

[@rvenden]

Excellent. Thank you.

[@davidhofman4341]

Check the voltage at the starter from switch . My mower had voltage lose across safety switches. Attach a relay triggered by the start input. Connect battery voltage across the relay contacts to the solenoid input on the starter. NO voltage loss.

[@LeonardMagnusson]

"racoon". she's a keeper.

[@mikespain8655]

A Chinese skid loader named Raccoon.

[@Bacon_Hawk]

If the skid steer quick coupler is hard to connect, Irwin makes a quick coupler hand clamp that is nice.

[@jc-mt8ot]

Hey Mustie...is that Sammy Hagar? Glad to see him back on the channel. When you loaded up all that stuff and drove it home, how fast did he go? One thing is for sure sure. It wasnt 55! Happy Thanksgiving and thanks for the great content!

[@DwayneMiller-w9y]

Thank you buddy and a little extra from Darren

[@pvccannon1966]

A thanksgiving treat from Mustie1.

[@scotthewitt6047]

I was happy to see the last owner at first, I was thinking he died that's why you are getting all his stuff.

[@MrLangDog]

Happy Thanksgiving Mustites !!! That Racoon machine is sold all over and some have Mitsubishi engines in them. Looking forward to upcoming videos on that.

[@sixtoes2313]

Happy Thanksgiving to our US Friend's 🦃

[@JustanOlGuy]

Damn thing's cute as hell!

[@andersjeppsson2456]

Nice. Have a good day.

[@lrrromicronpersei8294]

Cool mid week Mustie1 video One of my vans does the same I think it’s the contact inside the starter solenoid. I think it rotates ever so slightly on each click and I think there is a bad spot just keep bumping the starter then it’s good for a while 😂

[@vwnut1967]

Good times sir

[@gwilli]

Apparently 4:30 is avocado time. 🤣

[@dominicgregoire2088]

A midweek special? Thank you @mustie1!

[@Paul-FrancisB]

Good afternoon all from Lincolnshire UK

[@urdooinitrong7753]

good morning from south Florida!!!

[@keithramsey5976]

looks better than most you get

[@gregmannos]

Skid steering made in China... What could go wrong ? Pros... Temu is your parts catalog.

[@davidhudson5452]

More new toys nice

[@TallGamer111]

Mid week mustie . Whoop whoop

[@redneckbryon]

Fun, midweek adventure with Mustie1.

[@elsdp-4560]

Thank you for sharing.🦝👍

[@jlpgriver]

Good stuff,

[@mariosaccoccio1688]

"It comes with all these goodies!" Where's the kitchen sink?

[@kevins4229]

WOOT! Mid Week Mustie!

[@RGSneaker]

Remember the ground cable :-)

[@leonmarais6298]

wow a Mustie midweek Black Wednesday

[@thomasjarosz7406]

Mustie 1 , "lets Wrench" on some Chinesium God Bless

[@thomasjarosz7406]

Racoon. LOL. God Bless

[@bobbleboydk]

Why get a bobcat when you can get a racoon, Yessss

[@jonhammes6209]

That trailer is cheating, Mustie! No but pucker moments loading that one up

[@jerrydwyer9057]

When my starter got very old and worn it worked wet.

[@ralphramirez7815]

Midweek Mustie 👍 👍 👍 👍

[@aarongrabowski3775]

So do we still get our sunday video?

[@theteadrinker-143]

Nice vid , I could use that log splitter

[@maverick4177]

Surely that’s Chiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiina 😂

[@miztatone918]

Wow haha I guessed it right it is a skid steer video 😮😂❤

[@RuedigerEtzold]

Thanks for the Video Mustie1 👍 Not trying to be nosy, but what happened to the other SkidSteer and the other UTV-like vehicles (the KeiTruck ones)?

[@slipperyjk]

Wednesday vid. Pretty cool! 👍

[@MrGMawson2438]

7:46 I'm not sure he knows you Darren

[@Scott485-tx3ff]

The starter on the skid steer has weak amperage going to the solenoid not kicking the started bendix to mesh with the flywheel. I have seen this problem a couple times with a zero turn and my new holland tractor. Try replacing the relay or run a new relay directly from the battery.

[@kenthetalkingpen2518]

Awesome .......
