I think I've seen it. Enjoyed it too

hank..flow of electrons in a electrical circut is from - to + so attaching - first allows electron flow through the circut so "they" say attach + first to avoid that possibility..... or at least that is how it was explained to me

[@noelwarner1235]

On a 2-stroke Detroit it's been sitting a long time you should always take off the valve cover and make sure the injector control rack is free and not sticking so the motor does not stick at wide open throttle. That machine is in really nice shape and would make a good one for somebody. Hank cheers as thrmachine starts in gear and takes off with Wiley down over the hill into the pond.Uhh where's the driver seat?

[@m9ovich785]

Did You not watch at 26:00.

[@landrelarose745]

Henry, that's not how that joke goes. It's not with cannibals. It was with a serial killer who was eating a clown. When the detectives came to the place where he was eating the dead clowns arm. He was offering it to them, while he asked them 'Does this taste funny to you?'

[@marygarner5249]

Absolutely love your videos Dynamic Duo is Back 😁😁😁💟💟💟💟

[@HamiltonvilleFarm]

Thanks!

[@alphonsotate2982]

Looks like the boom hoist clutch is stuck while it was running be fore you guys start the engine make Shure the master clutch is disengaged so the boom wont flip over and kill anybody by crashing back wards on too the cab please find some one that know about friction cranes🙄🙄🙄🤓🤓

[@JT-qf4it]

Wilie, that silver weld on the bucket is called Hard Facing. It is a special rod that has a lot of chrome in it to act as a wear inhibitor. Dirt get stuck between the weld beads and protects the parent metal form wear.

Nope, hard-facing is the correct term. I used Esab and BOC hard facing electrodes for fifty years and they were marked that on the box.

[@johnh8192]

Thought I was on the wrong channel. Nice service truck right close, lots of tools, multiple new batteries. You guys are getting pretty slick already, but if you had a couple real heavy-duty cables that bolted on instead of jumper cable clamps might save some battery toting. Thanks for providing another entertaining hour -

Oh man, we beed to scale back some!!!😂

[@dr.leonardhofstadtersavage6413]

That's what i absolutely love about your contest, Hank. You got an awesome sense of humor. And you find the best interesting things to work on. I always laugh when you you and Wily get together, keep up that excellent work. 👍👍👍👍

[@stevevogelman3360]

A pawl is a lever that usually engages a drum to deliver power like on a pull start engine. When you pull the rope a pawl grabs the pulley witch turns the engine over. A pawl is also used to engage a drum when you put a automatic transmission in park to keeping the car stopped.

[@twinkie27271]

On an automatic the parking pawl is just a pin

[@dirtycraneoperator]

It's a dog in the drum that fits in the dog pocket so the drum can't free fall it the brakes release. You have too engage the master clutch and drum clutch too rotate the drum up too remove the dog than you can hold the drum on the brake.

[@sleepervega71hill28]

And... I've gotta give a shout to you all... I really like the both of you and your shows. And thanks to You tube! Very educational 👍👍👍👍👍

[@benjaminstockton3917]

Always love it when an old Detroit diesel comes running back to life!!💗💗 my favorite diesel engines ever made!

[@Svein-Erik]

Thank you, your videos are so enjoyable and for me some of the most normal and natural input we can get when the outside world "goes insane" 🙏This reminded me of my childhood years in the 80s when I was with my grandfather and launched an old wooden boat from the dock to the sea with a similar crane, used half a can of ether to get started. The boat had an ancient Saab single cylinder engine, where we had to screw these Zundfix Diesel starting cigarettes into the nozzle to fire the engine👍🙂

[@caesar1295]

Good job guys that old Detroit 4-71 still sounded stout and started like it was just ran two days ago.

[@bobpocock87]

You guys always look like you haveso much fun doing these start-ups. Great video 📹 👍 God Bless

[@mike-tl3is]

These videos are just totally the very best when Both Hank and Wiley are together. They’re like Laurel and Hardy lol. I’m not saying their videos are not good when they’re alone but when they’re together, it’s just the best. 😂 good work yall

Enjoyed this video Hank and Wiley. Another success. It is hard for me to understand someone abandoning an expensive machine for 13 years.

[@muddawgkomm9642]

Couldn't have been a cheap purchase,,, I'd been runnin it til it wouldn't no more!

[@rirebel6029]

A lot of videos on youtube of abandoned machines and you watch and say wtf I would run that on my property until the tracks or bucket fell off

[@muddawgkomm9642]

@@rirebel6029 yep 🤣

[@seamusburke9101]

@@muddawgkomm9642 I believe the boom hoist was adjusted too tight and she lifted the boom without the control lever being touched or the automatic boom cutout failed and the operator didn't know how to stop it lifting so it kept going until it stalled the engine. You can tell it was being operated by an amateur by the way he left the bucket hanging and left. Only a complete knob would do that.

[@rpyboy911]

This is a generic question…how old is Wiley for real? I’m 40 and he moves around better than I do! I have a serious chronic illness and had cancer and y’all really get me through the hard times. Thank you for what you do. Much love guys.

[@ralphriddle8864]

Very nice job and God bless y'all

[@Ocboy420]

Awesome 👏🏻 super cool video. Man I bet hanging out with Wiley you have learned a lot over the years? Seems like such a good ole boy those are the guys this generation needs to be listening too! You both are very knowledgeable on all these engines & equipment. Like I said before y’all are definitely the OG’S of will it start videos, I won’t watch anyone else’s 🤣🤣👍🏻

[@thomaskanipe4615]

This machine boom is jacked up and no telling what else My Dad ran draglines all his life and I’ve never seen a bucket hang like that with the boom straight up Lol

[@seamusburke9101]

Whoever was last one operating that crane is still running for his life! I wouldn't even dream of starting that engine with the boom in that position and the backstops all bent up.

[@robmikell7444]

Hank, if you ever get over near Jasper/ White Springs Fla, I could show you a machine. A 4600 Manitowoc. Been sitting @ 5 years. Largest tracked dragline ever built. The counterweight is a 2000 gallon fuel tank. Has a 300 Cummins to power the tracks. A V24 Cummins main & a 4-71 genset. It's a beast. You could drive a service truck with a boom under it. The main engine had 4 starters. This machine came out of a coal mine in Pennsylvania. The supervisor at the old sand mine stated it took 56 flatbeds to haul it down here. Ever get this way, I could point it out. Just off I10 Hwy 6 Jasper. 2 miles to machine.

[@bobtucker8875]

Well it's sure good to tune in an see you doing something worth watching ☺️. Thank you Lord. Oh, an thanks to you guys 😘.

[@davida.p.9911]

WooooWhooo! Listen to that Detriot scream! 👍👍 That's the sound of power! Good job fellas!!

[@carlcarlamos9055]

Guys. PLEASE. Don’t mess with any more cranes without a chaperone. This is the second crane you’ve been involved with, and the second one that’s been in a wreck. And this wreck hasn’t even been straightened up, it’s still teetering. If the master clutch wasn’t unhooked and the air lines were not off, you would probably be the new owners of a sad little crane wrapped up in a ball. And you might be doing that from a hospital bed. I like watching you guys, and I want you to stay in good shape. I know God is watching over you, but sometimes he gets right busy and the devil slips in. Take care and thanks for the videos. P.S. I think that machine is what the legal beagles call an attractive nuisance.

[@Klelack01]

I never thought that would start. That makes you guys Legends. 5 star video.

[@mabloodhound]

A pawl can also be a dog that engages a gear tooth to prevent it from moving. Like on your come-a-long ratchet with the pawl lever.

[@tomwheeler9244]

Hank..you both NEED leatherman tools! Seen a few videos that if you guys had them might of saved a trip to truck! Love the channel!

[@kevinmccarey5015]

Hello Hank, Great job you guys Be well

[@seamusburke9101]

The pawl in question is the boom hoist pawl. When the pawl is engaged in the boom hoist drum the boom cant be lowered. Not even if the brake is released.

I do operate cranes for a living .

The boom pawl is a dog to help hold the boom up. When ya boom up and hear a clicking noise then it is ingaged and you can't boom down. That's probrably why the boom is so high. You gotta disengage the boom pawl while booming up just a bit then boom down.

[@glennjukes5581]

[@cotterdraglineservicesinc.9167]

If you need any information on the machine I can help. I own 3 405's. The Paul is your boom hoist locking Pawl, keeps the boom from accidentally falling. I have videos also of complete tear downs if you want to see the internal workings

[@mikecoston7670]

Hand, or Pawl - In any mechanism, a small lever that engages a notch to actuate movement in one direction only. Specifically, a small spring-loaded lever attached to the a hammer that restricts movement on a revolver. I am not sure about your machine, but it probably allows a drum or pulley to move in oe direction when a lever is pulled.

There's a great video on Lord Muck's channel about how 2-stroke Detroits work, it's a clever system.

[@Phoenix_Adventures]

Wheres part 2 of it moving ? Looks really kool

[@landrelarose745]

Henry, in a gasoline powered two cycle engine, there are ports in the sides of the cylinders. There are two of them per cylinder. The air enters the intake port and then goes into the crankcase, where it lubricates the rotating assembly. As a piston traveling downward, it pressurizes thst crankcase, causing the air to compress. This helps bring up that mixture into the cylinder, where it will eventually be compressed. At the top of thst piston, there's a extension, so that thst fuel won't exit the cylinder via the exhaust port. After that piston reaches the top of its travel, that's when the spark plug ignites the fuel. When it travels downward, the exhaust exits the cylinder via the exhaust port. The first engines in a car was a two-cycle. It was used by a man by the name of Carl Benz of Germany. Did you know that compression starts after the pistons travel past the top of the upper port of those engines? Those are usually the exhaust ports. Thats how a two-cycle engine functions, Henry.

[@seamusburke9101]

That's the worst explanation of how a two stroke engine works I've ever read.
