SERVICE CALL: A Sick IH INTERNATIONAL 584. WILL IT RUN AGAIN???

[@richardrieckers9567]

Good to see Old Muleskinner Bob on video.

[@rosstheoliverman]

He was in good spirits that day!

[@2cylinderguy]

You’re a skilled guy. Thank you for taking us along on another service call.

[@rosstheoliverman]

Thank you!

[@Thecasey34]

Ross don’t need to bring the service truck. He can fix everything with knipex pliers 😂

[@rosstheoliverman]

They are a magical tool indeed!!!

[@ThatOliverGuyChris]

Did you remember to plug in and clear the check engine light when you were done?

[@rosstheoliverman]

You didn’t see it on film, but I stole his battery before I left so he should be good on the light.

[@bigun447]

Using your shoulder top computer instead of your laptop computer is a dying art. BTW, the secretaries were the first laptop computers.

[@rosstheoliverman]

Oh I know, today no one seems to do any basic diagnostics if they can’t plug in a computer and have it tell them the answer.

[@ThatOliverGuyChris]

I see what you did there, Gary. LOL

[@rosstheoliverman]

@@ThatOliverGuyChris sometimes you plug into her and you’re left with more questions than answers, but it’s still wonderful

[@bigun447]

@@ThatOliverGuyChris No getting anything past you!!! Maybe I need to get a tractor cab to do confession in. Think one of my rich farm neighbors that have several big 4wd (tracked) tractors would let me, one of their poor near neighbors, one for confessions?

[@davidwhite4474]

Let the older man know that every day above ground is a good day . I tell people that all the time .

[@rosstheoliverman]

So true! Thanks David!

[@markhall7182]

Another great day for you

[@rosstheoliverman]

Thanks Mark! It was a good one

[@jeffhoman767]

Those IH are good little tractors

[@rosstheoliverman]

I have never seen one this size before. I wonder how many they made of them? Usually you see like 484s or that size.

[@markflick1641]

Doesn’t matter what color it is it’s always good entertainment.Thank you

[@rosstheoliverman]

Thanks Mark!

[@ces188charles6]

Good ole basic troubleshooting works every time!

[@rosstheoliverman]

The best way is to just check it out one step at a time for sure!!

[@robertcheatham2891]

Farmall Ross is back!

[@rosstheoliverman]

🤣🤣🤣 I guess

[@gleanerk]

The bolt you pulled out still wins over horse hair 😂. Natural farmers thought “ you planted your corn yet ? “ when talking to another farmer. .

[@rosstheoliverman]

Oh that bolt, I don’t think I’ll ever live it down 🤣 Nope, haven’t started yet

[@stevec5338]

I didn't know Zenith made fuel line fittings! 😜

[@rosstheoliverman]

It might as well be made by zenith 🤣🤣🤣

[@hacc220able]

Thanks for sharing

[@rosstheoliverman]

My pleasure! Thanks for watching!

[@farronmccathern1849]

I worked with a guy for years who was amazing at making up song lyrics on the fly! He would always say " I should have been a singer instead of so damn good looking! LMAO!

[@rosstheoliverman]

🤣🤣🤣 that’s hilarious! I’m gonna have to start using that!!!

[@farmark457]

Really good video and interesting neighbours. Thx

[@rosstheoliverman]

Thanks!!!

[@keithwuchter624]

Great job getting the old international going. Like you say just a process of elimination till you find the issue.

[@rosstheoliverman]

The best way is to start at the source and keep working down! Thanks for watching!!

[@lisapalomo6461]

Awesome video. Good to see people helping people

[@rosstheoliverman]

Thanks!!!

[@philipalanparish65]

Methinks you should stick to spinning wrenches 😂

[@michaelsheeder148]

Ross, that is definitely weird seeing all that hair and debris inside the filter housing banjo nut. Thanks Michael

[@rosstheoliverman]

It was a surprise for sure! Thanks Michael.

[@craigmiller4259]

I have a 685, same setup, have to clean that banjo fitting every 2 years or so. Just know to do that right off if I lose power.

[@petepeeff5807]

My guess is the mystery washers on the openers are to space the bolt head away from the seal.

[@rosstheoliverman]

They’re made to set the spacing between the two openers. I was surprised that I didn’t need any on the inside. They spaced out correctly without them on all except one unit.

[@brianhartley4534]

Guy I used to work for had one of those 584 International that thing was a power house I'd like to have one

[@rickhaver5876]

Glad your actually getting use out of those pliers: Found it on sale on that jungle sight.

[@rosstheoliverman]

They’re super awesome! Thanks again!!

[@corydriver7634]

Dang it, now I gotta buy some Knipex pliers.

[@rosstheoliverman]

They’re pretty sweet!

[@apollorobb]

Little D206 engine sounds good . Nice Job Rossifer

[@rosstheoliverman]

Thanks!!!

[@pagrainfarmer]

Glad you got those guys going again. People need someone they can call for help. I'm sure they appreciate you.

[@rosstheoliverman]

Thanks Charlie! I try, I fail a lot but hey you get what you pay for 🤣

[@johnkissack5295]

Good video!!

[@rosstheoliverman]

Thanks John!

[@donaldwallace7934]

You’re a good man Charlie Brown (Ross)!! 👍🏻👍🏻😊 Ross, does that German tool have a name? I wouldn’t mind finding one.

[@rosstheoliverman]

Thanks Donald! I don’t know what it’s actually called, it was sent to me by a viewer but it’s made by Knipex.

[@AllanHanscom]

I didn't see you turn the fuel on back at the tank? But you did right🤔

[@rosstheoliverman]

Shhhh. I wondered when someone would catch that 🤣🤣🤣 I cut out a bunch of stuff when editing and then realized I did not show that part

[@AllanHanscom]

@@rosstheoliverman I typed that as I was watching the video...lol, I was trying to help....even though I know you had already fixed the problem and posted the video.🤠

[@TimMartin-bh9js]

You should have bring the tool truck

[@rosstheoliverman]

I know, someday I’ll probably take it out on a call again

[@JohnBryant-qc5zg]

Hairball in the International!😆

[@johnbender1596]

That banjo fitting is trash catcher. Cleaned a few of them over the years.

[@rosstheoliverman]

I guess it’s a good thing because it keeps it from going on to something more important!

[@DonWelter]

Always a positive to diagnose that sort of problem!!! An old mechanic once told me that a number of younger auto mechanics are just parts changers rather than diagnosing the problem.

[@bigun447]

You are exactly correct. We saw the change in the mid-50s. When in college we would give the auto parts stores $0.50 for each regulator we got out of their core barrel. We put them on the school's teat bench, checked and adjusted them, and made a couple of bucks when we sold them to those in need.

[@rosstheoliverman]

You can rack up a heck of a bill in parts in a hurry if you don’t do some diagnosing first.

[@bigun447]

@@rosstheoliverman I love it when the dealer's computers cannot diagnose why something it shutting down the equipment at erratic times so they start throwing new sensors, wiring harnesses, computers and etc., and still cannot fix the problem. Then the Mfg, has to track down an operating system problem, not an easy-to-do thing, and then make a download to all of their products. Like Elon Musk, who claims a new download to fix Tesla steering systems was not a recall.

[@burrridgefarms]

I almost yelled at the screen😂😂 Welcome to the fuel system fun on the small German diesels. Just for future reference on most of the IH German diesels they use 2 of the same fuel filters. I've been through all of it on my CIH 895 witch is just the big brother to the 584. I'm glad you're not allergic to the red ones. If you get stumped in the future shoot me an email. Good job 👍

[@rosstheoliverman]

Thanks Adam! I’m generally not allergic to different colors as long as the money is green 🤣

[@scottm-rw1og]

Oh wow

[@rosstheoliverman]

A red one! 🤣

[@darweb3417]

Hairy situation, but you overcame it.

[@rosstheoliverman]

So hairy 🤣

[@JohnBryant-qc5zg]

Hairball in the International!

[@johnirwin1837]

Just good ole basic mechanic troubleshooting. Works for most anything.

[@rosstheoliverman]

It’s the best way to avoid buying unnecessary parts

[@MaclearieFarms]

Yeah those old 584 internationals where not very good tractors but they where pretty decent loader tractors a lot of the times those tiny little 282 engines with a dinky cooling system did not pare well

[@rosstheoliverman]

This is the first one of these I have ever seen. I didn’t even know they made it

[@MaclearieFarms]

@@rosstheoliverman yeah they where made in India and shipped to the US and panted and sheet metal was added it was know as the red Oliver 1365

[@bigun447]

@@rosstheoliverman You need to sell him on a couple of spindle caps. I can see you now replacing the bearings, hubs, and maybe a spindle.

[@HighWaterFarm]

Am I the only one that saw “sh*t” spelled out with hydraulic oil and dust at 7:23? Even the international is self aware of its status.

[@ThatOliverGuyChris]

I didn't, but now I do.

[@rosstheoliverman]

🤣🤣🤣 after I read your comment, I went back and looked and sure enough I see it too now!

[@Wolffetg422]

There’s a problem, that I have with my 584 where it doesn’t feed fuel, the breather tube on the tank gets clogged with insects or some other gunk

[@rosstheoliverman]

Yeah, that definitely would keep it from running right

[@tomharrington1393]

👨‍🔧🚜👍👍

[@rosstheoliverman]

Thanks Tom!

[@tommydrennan7017]

How did you pressurise the fuel tank with the compressor?

[@rosstheoliverman]

Stick the air nozzle down in there and hold a shop rag around it and pull the trigger.

[@edwardcowdell5001]

How do people own farm equipment and not know how to fix it

[@rosstheoliverman]

Some people just don’t. That always amazes me as well but some people just don’t have that ability

[@Machi74005]

Are you a mechanic for hire?

[@rosstheoliverman]

Yes. But I am particular about which jobs I will do as I work several jobs.

[@BeecherMeatandLiquor]

Thanks Ross for ruining my favorite Alabama song. Lol

[@rosstheoliverman]

🤣🤣🤣 I’m here all week!

[@paulprillwitz9901]

👍👍

[@rosstheoliverman]

Thanks Paul!

[@cockshuttboy20]

Have a CaseIH 685 very similar changed the filters

[@rosstheoliverman]

They definitely get dirty especially when mowing.
