Part 6 Deere 850j dozer engine carnage, we had to pull it out again and disassemble I screwed up big

[@chuckbold3888]

You guys have my utmost respect. The customer may not know it wasn't right but you did. Your integrity is at a level you don't see much any more. Congratulations on a job well done.

[@jimsilverdale205]

I agree, others wouldn't have done what you did. Your customers will respect the quality of work you guys do and in the long run your business will prosper from this mistake.

[@rustysteel8714]

Seconded! Integrity is the word, CB! 👍

[@seanlathbury5410]

I hope it pays dividends. Nice work

[@justgetrinthere]

Awesome video we all win some and lose some Ole kenny was right gotta know when to fold I wonder if the camera has a noise canceling feature that tunes out the high pitch frequencies Ive heard the same high pitched noises on the for sale vids Its like it picks up the frequency of the injection timing combustion

[@Machinist1755]

Well said.

[@philipfleming3546]

Anyone buying equipment for you at C&C knows you'll be people of word and trust. Great work Clint and Shorty. God Bless your honesty.

*- Reputation Protection is your whole business model for good reason. Bravo.* *- This video should be used in all poly tech schools and all MBA programs in America.*

[@andylarner3531]

Your concern about passing something onto a customer that may have caused trouble does you credit awesome video

[@donalddehaven3229]

This is why I can say that C&C Equipment is top notch. Other equipment dealers may have rolled the dice and let it go out and hope it held together for a few hundred hours and let the customer get stuck with an engine repair bill. I guess the lesson I learned is just replace all the components on the first time. It would have saved all the extra labor time and costs in new bolts and gaskets. C&C Equipment is a wonderful business. Clint and Kevin are true professionals

[@coolhandrob8893]

This is next level wrenching. The bad mechanics will never get what you did there. We get it and have a ton of respect for the pride and American workmanship you put into every job you do.

[@jamestsmith4500]

This is the reason that I have watched your videos more and have almost quit watching everyone else's. Someone said it right. Integrity means more than profit. Every one of you learn a valuable lesson in every mistake you make. Knowing how to find and fix your mistakes sets you above everyone else in your line of work. I found that in rebuilding engines that you have to remember where you left off if you have to stop. And there are certain times you have to not let distractions throw you off course. If they ever have an awards show for engine re-builders, and or construction equipment refurbishers I would like to nominate "C&C Equipment Company" with the highest honors. What you loose in time doing "exploratory surgery" on yourself, you gain in valuable knowledge. Look how long it took you to tear it back down. That's called wisdom. Congratulations, quality is job one !!!!!

[@C_CEQUIPMENT]

Thanks for the kind words!

[@RobertClough-oj3yq]

Hats off to C & C Equipment. See something wrong and you fix it. Top notch company Clint. You set the standards others should follow.

[@randyadams7269]

Randy is a good hand. Helps so much to not have to jump off and on equipment to fetch anything, he puts everything away also. All you guys did great work.

He is

[@freeradical6390]

You may not have made any money on this machine but the benefit to your reputation is priceless!

[@peteetienne5493]

With projects like this, it would be a smart purchase of getting an engine test stand, and run an engine through its break in process before installation.

[@jakleo337]

That's what separates the pros from the amateurs. An irrational amount of persistence.

[@TimFeagins]

There is a special seat at the table for a man who owns his mistakes as well as his success. Credit to you.

[@mooshaker]

Showing when things go wrong just shows you integrity.👍

[@jamestsmith4500]

I believe that. Instead of "sweeping it under the rug", or "kicking the can down the road"..

[@richardw.foxhall3392]

My only regret is that the You Tube system does not allow or recognize a double, triple or any other multple THUMBS UP that a video of this caliber should generate. Just like a life, there is only ONE thumbs up to give.. Well done fellows. And wait was that uncle Scott calling some one a gripper!? That is rich.

[@moman0166]

This is the place to buy equipment. You know it is right or it will be made right. This is a comfort because now days a good business is hard to find with employees that don’t care. Everybody does a great job here.

[@JPM-yr8to]

Yup Clinton, you screwed up big time and lost some profit. But!!! Your integrity and honesty won out in the end. Good on you sir! Plus, look at the lesson you taught to Tucker, Hunter and the team on when you make a mistake own up and get er fixed right. Never give up your Integrity and doing what is right as a person or as a business man. Thanks a bunch for sharing the Ups and Downs.

[@warrenklingensmith1241]

You deserve the utmost respect for being a honest equipment dealer. You can look at yourself in the mirror anytime.

[@Grandpa-Chris]

Proper struggle bus this time… total respect to you all for Not sending the tractor out before sorting everything out.👏👏👏🤝🤝🤝🦅🦅🦅

[@tedtalotti332]

I have to say you guys are absolutely amazing. You don’t need any advertising. You’re your own best advertising.

[@jameskaufmann4260]

The fact that you would not let it go with the ticking means you are a true professional! And you take great pride in your work and your word. If I saw this video and needed this dozer I would be happy to buy it and pay some extra for it. Be safe and have a great weekend.

[@Mike7478F]

We have huge respect for you and your crew and work. We would purchase from you in a heartbeat. Someone will get a great Deere.

[@tylercarter770]

This is what separates the men from the boys. Not many especially in the business that you're in with that kind of integrity. It always pays to do the right thing. 👍🏻 great job fellers

[@johnangelo5567]

If John deer had a pit crew you boy's would be at the top of the list

[@ryanshadders750]

I think it's awesome that you guys are not too proud to show us the very grateful viewers the good along with the bad and that not everything turns out the way you may have hoped. You guys clearly do top-notch quality work. I'm an electrician who knows very little about heavy equipment other than I've always been fascinated by it and how to know when I'm working with an operator I completely trust when I'm in a ditch all day with an excavator bucket over my head.

[@clarencewest6418]

My father said, "The person who never made a mistake was one who never did anything."You are right about the video amplifying the high pitch. The first time it cranked, it sounded like a time bomb. I just found your channel, and appreciate your keeping it clean. Language not grease😅. Thank you.

[@Mr.Avuncular]

Just Shows that your a honest and to show your mistakes just makes it that much more of what type of business that you are running. My hats off to you Clinton and your crew. May have taken a couple steps backwards in this build but in the long run,you sleep well at night,and have a clear conscience. Well done, only wish more would take your stance in the business world. Well done❤️👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@jamestsmith4500]

That's real talk right there. Wanting to sleep at night, knowing that the job is done right.

I would never hesitate buying anything from you gentlemen. Good job Clint

As my father always said after I had done something stupid.... "That'll teach you". Hopefully we learn from our mistakes. Cheers, from Gavin in the UK

[@Jimmyfisher121]

[@gregmaxfield4405]

Clinton, you may have lost some dollars but your integrity is 100% intact. 🙂🚜🐻 Bear Queensland Australia

[@MarkGray-dl3eo]

I appreciate that you hold yourself to a high standard. That’s what matters the most in business. Self employed people should take note that their integrity is very important. You are a good example. Your sons will follow in your footsteps no doubt. I know because my family business is 67 years and 3rd generation is working for me. We teach the principals that you do. Subscribers I have met Clinton at several auctions and he has given a lot of advice about equipment just like he does on KZbin. He is the same no matter what.

[@mikejohnson4041]

Now you have a story to tell the boys when they are on the fence on whether to reuse or replace.

[@jamescole1786]

2/10/23; ..correction of minor mistake/omission (not measuring north/south dimensions of conn'g rod [but measuring East/west]) was oversight...many distractions as you oversee/supervise 10 other activities. Very slight 'tic' heard when running, among numerous other diesel engine noises, was impressive! Then your professionalism is such that you admitted it on camera & repeated the efforts to pull engine out, tear down to re-measure all connecting rods...again...finding the (slightest) unacceptable, out-of-spec measurement resulting in all new components. Then reassembly, new oil & fuel line bleed/injector check...= quick start & 'no-tic' normal running sounds, temperature & successful test run! Wow! Great educational video for importance of 'nerdy' details & integrity, honesty & honest hard work! Congratulations Clint! Another fine job! Whoever buys this machine has confidence it's been fixed to perfection! 👍👍👍👏👏👏🛠🔧🍺😊

[@1962gemma]

A problem fixed fixed by an honest shop before sending back to owner is a good thing ..

just based on this video alone I can tell you have repeat customers. Its refreshing to see integrity in what you do!

This is way like watching you guys because you won't let a question go. your honest and you're show a good Example , for everybody who watches you and your children , which i'm sure you got from your father.Anything bite you come back, Good people, Just watching you. nothing but good things to say about you and your company and the people you work with👍.

Damn, 60 ft. lbs. plus 260 degrees is a heck of a lot of torque. Now wonder Big Kev has a cheater bar on the go. Seriously, love your work ethics. And as a side note from a mechanic, when does this damn “learning curve” ever flatten out? Seems I’ve been going uphill for fifty years!

[@kenricker4562]

nice job its refreshing to see someone who does it right. if you make a mistake you fix it you dont patch it

[@tinymonster9762]

What the video shows is your integrity and your values. A customer who will be spending a great deal on critical equipment for their business must have absolute faith that what they buy is to be trusted. They have only to watch this video sequence to see what you put into your stock before it reaches the market. Advertising like that is priceless.

[@BrianFullerton]

Did we like it? yes! I learn a lot from you when it goes right. I learn more when it does not. Thanks for showing what life actually looks like.

[@richardbaumeister466]

I would rather buy a rebuilt tractor from you than a new one from the factory just because of your work ethic. AMERICA!

You would be surprised at how many manufactures of everything made "kick the can down the road".

[@davidsnyder2000]

I can’t believe that crap had to happen to you guys. You guys are the most thorough mechanics and so well organized. I hate to see aggravating things happen to good folks. I’m so sorry you guys are having to go through this rebuild again, but you you guys are very honorable for taking it back apart to build a quality motor 🙏👍 I doubt most shop would put in all the extra effort as you guys are. Much love and respect to you all🙏👍🙂

I'm not a mechanic but that sounds like a normal operating diesel engine. Job well done fellas. Like your videos.

[@trumpingtonfanhurst694]

Good work, and I'm glad it wasn't something worse. You don't seem to be the kind that throws fits and takes it out on your guys, (unless you do it off camera 😊) so respect for that.

[@alaskarainarts]

I have to tip my hat to you ,not many people will admit that it isnt right and then show it on youtube . great job to you thanks for sharing.

[@patrickcolahan7499]

Dealing in used, especially NonOp equipment is always a gamble. It is like going to the casino, if you walk out even or above, you are a winner. While there are times when we don't win, but it is an overall average and that is what counts. Same in any service business. Nice job as usual guys. Your integrity is to be complimented. In that respect, this job is a winner in showing your customers that they can do business with you in confidence. Thanks very much for sharing.

[@wendellmcqueary8624]

Thank you. There is NO price you can put on integrity. You could have knocked 5K off the price and sold it as is with a small wrist-pin knock. But your name and reputation is worth a lot more than a few grand. You knew something was not right, and you were not about to let it go out that way. Bravo.

[@clark9992]

I learned about chains when I rented a dumpster once. I filled that thing to the top with not a single void. Heavy stuff too. This company didn't use roll-off dumpsters. They swung them off the truck with a crane. When the guy came to pick it up, I was shocked because he was going to lift it with a skinny little chain like you were using. I told him I didn't think that was a good idea, because it was REALLY heavy. He gave me the look you probably give the comments about undersized chains. "Don't worry about it" he said, and hoisted it up and away no problem.

[@glenlockwood5401]

Your honesty speaks volumes

[@oldman8268]

This dozer for me was educational in many ways, integrity of you and your shop is off the charts. Some folks would have chalked it up too break in noise and sent it out the door. Good job Clint.

Who ever gets this back is getting a better machine than when they bought it

[@chillywilli]

Making a mistake is one. Fixing it is two. Showing it on KZbin a big three. Good to see that money doesn’t always comes first, but you stand for the quality. Respect!

[@jarmstrong2843]

Addressing the mistake before the dozer is sold and making sure things done correctly only goes to show us you have integrity. Your business’ reputation depends upon it being excellent. Honesty goes a long way these days since not all have the same values. Five thumbs up from this end of the inner web. 👍👍👍👍👍
