Oliver Loader Tractor - Fixing Numerous Hydraulic Leaks

The shop lighting upgrade and the new camera(s) have certainly made a big difference in your video quality.

[@mrswes]

Agreed!

I think so too. The lights are the biggest factor, but the camera is in another dimension compared to what i was using.

To be honest I forgot all about your camera trials until the end when you mentioned it. I didn't notice anything in your whole video that would suggest using any other type of A/V setup. Looks and sounds great. The dry Midwestern humor also put a smile on my face. Nice job Wes. 👌

[@WatchWesWork]

I doubt that highly, but thank you!

[@stephencroft761]

I feel your pain in the cleanup department. I used to work on IMO pumps used in hydraulic elevators. I swear you could take out all the plugs and turn them different angles to drain the oil but when you removed the three screws it seemed like a gallon of oil would gush out. It’s like it was opening a portal to another dimension. Great video I’m watching on a 52” tv everything looks great.

[@WatchWesWork]

Yes. You could let it drain for a month. Then the second you touch it oil drips from every orifice.

[@MrFedcounselor]

Any machine that's 30-40 yrs old and sits for long periods of time....the seals are going to leak. That's just the nature of something that isn't being run all the time. Love the vids and humor!

[@RalphRotten54]

Had a good laugh at the couplers being stored for the estate sale. So true!

[@wb2]

This video is a masterpiece. To me your intellect, professionalism as well as appearance are reminiscent of Hitchcock.

The Lumix and the shop lighting work very well - a big improvement.

[@danhillier534]

My dad was a White/Oliver mechanic at Kristy's Inc. in Grand Forks N.D. in the 60's an 70's. Growing up, I can still remember the smell of his lunchbox when he'd come home, hydraulic fluid an pepper as he always kept a pepper shaker in his lunchbox! That an mom complaining about his filthy, oil stained work clothes! Nope, no in house laundry service back then! His favorite Oliver he had (of many) was his Row Crop 77 with a trip bucket. Big collector of the 8n an 9n Ford's as well. Great memories!👍 Me an my big brother each had the Oliver toy pedal tractors with a bunch of "implements" too hook up too as well. All the neighbor kids were jealous!

[@pauliesspeedshop3578]

Thoroughly enjoyable video, Wes - The dry humor is spot-on, and so is the subject matter itself. I think the quality of video you're putting out now is right about at the Goldilocks level - Not once did a clip look hard to see, have audio issues, it was all clear as day, but any more polish would take a crew, an editor, a director, etc... Or at least a bunch more of your time. Keep up the awesome work!

[@roygunter3244]

As retired Hydraulic tech (USNAVY) certified through "Office Of Apprenticeship Program" 8k hr program., you did just fine. If there aint no mess then you didn't do it right. If a Hose failed to come off properly then the last guy didn't do his job properly.. So all is good. Nice rework.

I have a 1655 and that is correct, if there's no leaks under them, there's no oil in it. Favorite tractor though regardless. I'm an OCD type, and I have finally just learned to live with the fact that when you fix one leak, another one appears.
