Another use for the shake weight siphon hose.

[@rosstheoliverman]

Faster, faster, harder, faster, switch hands, almost done! Why shake weight, you’re not exercise equipment at all are you?

[@aaronkauffman2036]

Thanks for another great video! 1650/55 is such a good all around tractor. I sure appreciate my 1655.

[@rosstheoliverman]

Thanks! That’s what I grew up on, so they’ll always be some of my favorites.

[@banditfarmer1900]

Boy Ross I got beat up pretty good over putting new hydraulic hoses on my 1850 the right way as you described, I herd it all from being stupid and a waste of money and they will get ripped off by a chunk of wood ! Well Oliver ran they that way for several reasons 1 is for front mounted cultivators or for a picker but also taking pressure off the hydraulic couplers so they dont ware unevenly and keep them from popping out under pressure. We're like old blue eye's and we do it my way ! LOL Bandit

[@rosstheoliverman]

🤣🤣🤣

[@bigun447]

My first thought was that whoever had been in there before did not or could not read the manual, especially for that link. The old man in the shop had that link direction drawn on the wall. Having to loosen the fender is easy compared to how they have to do on many modern trucks with diesel engines (Ford especially) have to remove the fenders to get to even some simple items. Kind of like Chevy vehicles where we had to use a hole saw to get access to the spark plugs or like the famous Monza where one had to undo the motor mounts and raise the engine to get to the back sparkplugs. The Oliver fenders were a snap.

[@ThatOliverGuyChris]

That link has a 50-50 chance of going in right, but somehow a lot of guys beat the odds. 😂

[@rosstheoliverman]

I think the service manual forgot to take into account that a lot of mechanics drink pretty heavy 🤣

[@DonWelter]

If you can move to completion on an intricate project like this without losing any parts, you're a skilled Oliver technician. Didn't hear any animal sounds...so that's a plus!!!

[@rosstheoliverman]

🤣 thanks Don!

[@keithwuchter624]

Another nice video Ross. Always nice to see progress being made. Good luck and thanks for sharing.

[@rosstheoliverman]

Thanks, Keith!

[@jonathancrissinger2301]

Great video, making progress, thanks for sharing. See you later.

Thanks Jonathan!

[@Scott-qj1pm]

Great video Ross!

[@oldasdirt1909]

I’m always impressed when things start that’s the best way to start the day

[@rosstheoliverman]

Isn’t that the truth 🤣

[@gunnarbeck225]

I was always told to never use petroleum products on seals to always use veggie oil

[@banditfarmer1900]

If the seal is used to seal in a petroleum product in why wouldn't you use a petroleum product to lube it up ? All depends on the application of the seal for what it is used for and what to use on it. Bandit

[@rosstheoliverman]

The only time I really use vegetable oil is putting the sleeve O-rings in the engines. If you use that luberplate, it tends to eat the seals up and they start leaking.

[@shawnmarvin6348]

That was too too funny Ross! I was watching this as I was making a meatloaf and every time I put a spice in you coughed! Hope I didn't make you sick! 😂😂😂😂 ❤ your videos!

[@rosstheoliverman]

Awesome! Thanks!!

[@alexgarrod9093]

Hope get it fixed bud I've got sadness with my nitro.rc cars try put truck back together fix cam.pistion had drill out put new one little copper pipe as spacer

[@rosstheoliverman]

At least you figured out a way to get it fixed! Hopefully it’s running good now!

[@johnkissack5295]

Very interesting. Good video thanks

[@rosstheoliverman]

Thanks John!

[@roberttrimnerjr3539]

After watching your videos for awhile, I wonder how first generation farmers make it. They don't have the knowledge base to keep things moving like you do. But then again there minds probably aren't as feeble as mine.

[@rosstheoliverman]

I’ve thought of that before as well. I think they had it pretty rough because they had never seen any of this stuff before they went from doing things by hand and with horses to everything mechanical and that’s why a lot of them lost fingers and hands and arms, etc.. they had to depend on the dealer for service because they had no idea what to do to make it work again. I have the luxury of growing up with the stuff and also it not being the newest technology, there’s plenty of people out there, who understand what to do that you can ask for help.

[@Ron-m9p]

great video i really like watching you work on hyd

[@rosstheoliverman]

Thank you!

[@royhaught9516]

That's a good old tractor, just getting worn in a few places.

[@rosstheoliverman]

It’s definitely earned its keep around here!

[@garycathey7712]

I can tell you don’t like Mountain Dew! Must be an Indiana thing. My friend from Ft. Wayne lives on the stuff! Love watching your videos. Keep them coming! P. S. My friend in Tennessee still has that free combine if you want it.

[@rosstheoliverman]

I would quit drinking it, but I’m afraid I would get a soul crushing headache. 🤣

[@jasonandholliehuffman8291]

👍👍👍👍👍

[@dankreoger611]

Sounds like you got a starling problem in the shed.

[@rosstheoliverman]

I do! I wish I could get rid of them, but they seem to come back twice as many

[@clarencetrice4442]

HI ROSS 😊😊 it's done gotten dry now the air and the ground because no rain there nothing like a cloud 🌥 of dust around the lawn mower when U are cutting grass now 😮😮 U can't even see the lawn mower no more or were U are going either and already here the yard already looks like card board again this year 2 Ross U have a cold soda 🥤😊 2 drink and help 2 cut the dust and now it's even worse W no rain now its the way it is now 😮😮 OMG 6 21 2O24

[@rosstheoliverman]

I know, even yard mowing is a dirty job because of the no rain situation. Thanks Clarence!

[@br927]

If I have to get all the oil out, i use a turkey baster to suck it out!

[@rosstheoliverman]

I’ve had good luck with this little siphon hose. Plus, I didn’t have to get all the oil out just low enough that I could see what I was doing.

[@dougschmitii6165]

The 3pt on my 1650 "hunts". It constantly leaks down and then picks itself back up if you have any kind of weight on it. The lever also won't stay in place if it's so far in the down position. Any idea why it hunts?

[@rosstheoliverman]

It might have a crack in that relief, elbow and let the pressure drain off. The piston could also need resealed. Either way you’ll have to pull the whole unit off and flip it upside down to do it.

[@dougschmitii6165]

@@rosstheoliverman thank you for the reply. Hopefully it'll be obvious when I get in there

[@danw6014]

To bad someone in the Oliver marketing department didn't realize you can carry a whole six pack of Mountain Dew under the seat.

[@ThatOliverGuyChris]

Or did they???

[@rosstheoliverman]

I think they had to know that that was the perfect place to stuff your cans 🤣

[@randyrobinson8751]

Parts for Oliver& MM are getting hard to find. Even us case guys have to get creative at times.

[@rosstheoliverman]

I found that Oliver has just about the best parts availability of any older tractor brand. I worked on a case one time, and I couldn’t hardly find anything. Same with MM and even AC seems to have limited availability to some extent.
