This fuel tank is a masterpiece time to install and see if stacks clear the bed!!

[@kaydog2008]

Love the new Dirt Perfects Garage channel. Been a loooooooong time coming. 😲👍👈🤪🤪

[@Bman2020]

Listen to Bubba per nice work gentleman and again a great watch 👍👋🇨🇦

[@pinwizz69]

Gotta love a Bubba Dump getting some TLC shop time episode. Given how hard he works and dirty he gets he definitely deserves it. Now he's ready for another year of movin' mud, rocks, trees, undergrowth and whatever else Dirt Perfect crew get hired to do. he definitely earns his keep. Thanks for the Sunday afternoon entertainment Mike and Arron.

[@Aerospace_EdC]

Nice work Mike and Aaron, it's fun watching you guys work together. Aaron .... Mike's yep man 😁 and come-on Mike leave us hanging !!!!

[@cwbean3087]

A helpful hint when pulling lines from top of engine down to bottom is tie a string to the line at top before pulling line so when you feed it back up, you just pull spring back up. No fighting or remembering with route it come. :)

[@thedelcodave]

Thats a great idea!

[@garymurt9112]

My problem is I don't remember the string trick till it's time to reinstall the line.

[@gullreefclub]

I keep a couple pieces of 100lb monofilament of different lengths that I have have swivels attached to each end. I attached the swivels to end of the monofilament by heating it and forming a small glob instead of tying a knot or using a crimp to mark it easier to feed it through. I attach the line, wire, etc with either a small tye-wrap or tape

[@gullreefclub]

An electric fuel pump removed from the fuel tank of a junk car/truck along with a length of low pressure fuel hose and couple wires (speaker wire, lamp cord, and cheap extension cords work well) and a couple of large Alligator clips to attach to a battery (or jump pack) works great to transfer fuel from buckets into a tank, or visa-versa. Additionally those pumps will also work with most motor oil, ATF, hydraulic fluids and even gear oil if temperature of the stuff is above 60 degrees or so. I have pumped 15w40 from a bucket into the engine at lower temperatures but speed of the transfer is slower and pump life is diminished. When I worked at a Ford/Lincoln shop Dealer as a line mechanic we were constantly replacing them because of noise on new cars so I didn’t car if the pump I replaced under warranty burned out pumping cold gear oil. In case you are wondering I had a pump setup for Gas/Diesel, Engine Oil, ATF, and Gear oil. Some guys I worked with just used one pump for everything

[@pennyneal2456]

Next time you visit your mechanic, just give him or her a great big hug! They are worth their weight in gold for getting into small places. ❤🇨🇦

[@laceitup1]

I really hope you find the time to give her a full paint job and let her shine! That paint job is beautiful!! Watching you and Aaron is so entertaining!

[@dangerrangerlstc]

Yep, your piece of wire at 22:03 is to hold the fuel cap. Usually has a piece of chain with it.

[@blackdogexcavator21]

At the 35:33 mark, there's a warning on the side of the bucket to not let MBTS crawl into the bucket.

[@jenniferwhitewolf3784]

A sad fact is that 5 gallon buckets with open tops and partly filled with liquid, kill more toddlers in America than firearms do. At a certain size, children can lean over the bucket to see whats in it, and being so light, they can fall head first into it, and not be heavy enough to tip the bucket over, resulting in death. This is a real and genuine fact, and yet there is no clamor to put child safety warnings on buckets, or to 'ban' them, like they do with other objects that require willful human action to cause harm.

[@thomasdesmond2248]

Yes that curly metal thing was hooked to a chain that stopped the fuel cap from getting lost. God bless

[@lincolnhaines6887]

Really enjoy the shop videos! Don't forget to fix those rust holes on Bubba Dump!!

[@budgetridesoff-road]

Lol I love the different hight shelve mine would have been on the tire too

[@michaelmullins1290]

The look on Aaron's face when you ask about the plug. 😮

[@markevans3027]

Another good video Mike. Did you notice the picture of Aaron on the side of the bucket when he was refilling the diesel tank.😂

[@jrwildharber4038]

❤

[@needsaride15126]

It's enjoyable watching the both of you working together in the shop. Thank you for your video posts.

[@richardphelan8414]

Another Fun Sunday with Arron and Mike refitting the fuel tank and lots of short jokes ,always a guaranteed good time and lots of laughs watching these two working together .

[@trumpingtonfanhurst694]

Having struggled with wrenches and fittings in tight places many times, I have to admit it's kind of fun watching someone else struggle with wrenches and fittings in tight places 😉

[@countrycartier]

“I didn’t have any leaks up here” MBTS cracked me up again. Great vid DP.

[@chrishelms1967]

Ahhhhhh the suspense is killing me😮

[@kevinkenyon7045]

Mike and Aaron great build! Thanks for sharing! Kevin

[@gdotone1]

a dry ice blaster to clean oily, dirty parts without getting wet... may be nice addition to the shop. man, one day I'm definitely buying one. it is nothing like working on clean parts and in a clean area. it's so nice. easy to spot new or same leaks. man, it's going to be sweet.

[@Crewsy]

The only trouble with a dry ice blaster is that you need dry ice for it to work and most people don’t have that readily available. At work they use enough of it daily that they can make it on site.

[@kevinmurray7135]

Looks like a professional job i can tell Bubba Dump is a happy dump now not being leaked all over his ride 👍😎🇺🇸 9:22am NY

[@dennisryan7487]

DP! I really like it when you get us in there and we see whats going on!

[@stevengunter2843]

I have got to give you credit you take pride in all you do!!

[@cliffmorain7215]

You're right, keep the fuel cap from getting lost when you forget to put back on after fueling. (should be on a little chain)

[@davidfitnesstech]

Long-time viewer. Mike, I've been to the *Sistine Chapel in Rome* , and I can confidently say that the *craftsmanship and raw skill* that went in to *refurbishing that fuel tank* makes that *church look like a shack* . That *tank* is an *extraordinary work of art* that you should be *proud of and cherish* .

[@randyclyde4939]

Great video, great fun, great work gentlemen! Thanks, stay well, stay safe!

[@rockman531]

Howdy Mr. Dirt, The "new" tank looks awesome!! When you were looking for leaks at the end - put a clean piece of cardboard on the floor to see the drops. Next time you bring Bubba back from a job to your storage garage - put a sheet of cardboard under the front of it to check for leaks. Take Care, Jim

[@dans_Learning_Curve]

Watching for the banter between you guys!

[@carloskawasaki656]

Thank you, another awesome video, I learn everythink 👍👍👍👍

[@heatherlane9270]

Oh boy what a video - both of you found tight corners in which to work and the finish to date is great. Fuel tank is so pretty :) now Bubba Dump has a smile.

[@tbix1963]

Thanks for sharing your thoughts, ideas and videos. Great to see Bubba looking so fine, the stacks look amazing. Wishing you and your family the best.

[@tubbybrutus]

another great video guys you too working together well so much banter and fun watching the laughter keep um coming and them stacks look awsome cant wait to see next video with them working

[@williambasinger5859]

The stainless spring thing is for the fuel cap chain

[@garymessina1609]

You got it done great job great video thanks Mike and Aron

[@garydillon3960]

Situations where fittings are located is where a crowsfoot works well. Great job. Entertaining as usual. God Bless.

[@harrytaylor6854]

Yes fuel tank looks great all the leaks fixed and that exhaust hope she makes the turns .Great job on the welding Mr behind the scenes Well done guy's

[@philstreeter9703]

Great video. The tank looks great!

[@wilsonshedden2131]

I enjoyed your video. Nice to see Bubba Dump getting repaired and serviced. The repaired fuel tank looks awesome! Great job DP & Aaron, as usual!

[@charlesfreed7834]

The tank looks good nice job exhaust looks cool hope it works out bubba almost ready for a another year

[@kymw7833]

Thanks guys another very funny episode and Bubba is nearly ready to go I wouldn't like to be the first person to scratch the new paint,more shop time Mike it's gold😊😊😊 Kym Adelaide

[@joshuav1.0]

Yea, I was curious as to who would be the first to put a deep scratch on the new paint job

[@kopenhagenkid]

Great video Mr Dirt Perfect and Aaron

[@tonyatkins4398]

Good video and you two are fun to watch together

[@DirtPerfect]

Thanks

[@dansbrown1313]

Thanks for the fun Mike, you and Aaron did a very nice job on the repairs. This may be counter intuitive but at the 34:45 time stamp, Aaron is holding the 5 gallon bucket backwards/upside down and you shouldn't put any holes in the bucket unless the fluid is a very high viscosity product. When pouring diesel and other low viscosity fluids from a pail like that, the opening should be on top, not the bottom. ( this stops the burping and mess) Cheers from Canada

[@anthonygeisler5664]

Nicely done fellas, so much better video when you are not bickering over who is right or who's idea it was.

[@Definitelynotyou90]

Those are funny too

[@rogerlarge4827]

What.... I keep hoping for gloves and 3 rounds in the ring.

[@robertconreux8079]

MAN that truck is going to look sooo good when you get it all completely painted the OEM color it and the 210 will be a new pair!!

[@mattpointer8495]

Always amazes me how many don’t clean the area there working on before hand, or at the very least afterwards 🤦🏻‍♂️ Loving the channel guys, much love

[@Ashjuk]

Totally agree. The first thing I would have done is clean off all the old oil and dirt before taking anything apart.

[@imurhuckleberry7777]

I say that almost every fix video. But I guess you don't see the dirt until you see the dirt meaning by time you see it needs to be clean you always have a wrench on it.

[@Daihatsu_Hijet]

Awesome…

[@justme-by6xd]

You are right it's for your fuel cap should be a chain going from the cap to that wire spring thing

[@leer-winnobbeefarms2131]

Yippy! Yeah! Hooray! Bubba Lives! Can't wait to see if the stacks clear! Great video, Thanks Mike and Aaron! Lee

[@kopenhagenkid]

Great job guys putting the fuel tank on bubba dump

[@stevendegonia]

Sounds alright with no exhaust on it, But can barely wait to hear those stack pipes sing!

[@Denis-tu1pd]

Awesome job fixed all leaks and body work is awesome. Can't wait to see if the stacks clear . With all your previous builds you had no problems I think the stacks are going to clear . Great video when you to get together it's always fun. Denis from Santa Rosa

[@tanyaknight8197]

I love it when a plan comes together.

[@willcE2MC2E2X1]

You know it is going to drive me up a tree looking at that freshly painted diesel tank, all Purdy and such , and Bubba dump, you know you need to paint the the rest now😊

[@CMDSR]

Tank looks great. Hope you got the leaks fixed. Good job as always.

[@americanpatriot2.06]

8:40 I would certainly do a very thorough steam clean to get all that oil, crease, and dirt off. Keep an eye on it and look for signs of any other leaks.

[@jbro779]

That pic of the Hyundai in the intro is very cool.

[@DirtPerfect]

Thanks

[@terryrogers1025]

Fantastic job gents, looks great, now it will be nice to operate without having to be reminded of the little gremlin repairs that need to be worked on every time you start it, Bubba is looking good for sure, thanks for the tag along vid.

[@glynngrauer3962]

Great episode you did a really good job on that tank DP it's looks like new and it went back into its little hole so quick and easy

Thanks

[@glennspreeman1634]

surprising that fuel line held at all!

[@everestyeti]

Bubba Dub is getting there, looking at your stacks I think you might just be OK, might be a few millimetres in it but I think they will clear. You need to have a couple of lockers with a change of clothes, would be really useful for those diesel bath moments. 🤣🤗

[@hereintheuk2991]

Great video, how about the big rust holes above the tank… UK

[@thomasyerbey337]

Great video Mike and MBTS 🇺🇸

[@marinussnijder7941]

Now you have to paint the rest of the truck to match the fuel tank 😂 Nice job guys👍

[@roberttaylor2677]

Mike you guys did a good job on the repair and where it looks and I love your new intro that really does look nice you guys did a good job on that like I told you before you're a little mechanic and an operator and I love watching everything you do have a good time

[@skwyrz1]

Love the way you guy's screw together fuel fittings into dirty holes with dirt and crap all over them, Can't wait till it find's the injectors.

Hello from Denmark spring is on its way, we are now in summer time v put the clock forward one hour. We have rain today, March 26, but there may still be snow. Sometimes we suddenly get snow at Easter, but we certainly hope not, we all want spring as a gentle transition to summer. Thanks for good videos whatever the time of year

[@golfer963]

A couple of your old videos I time stamp the oil 🛢 leak . Hope you got the oil leak fix. The paint job on the fuel tank looks fantastic. They should have had you to paint the equipment at the auction. Because that was a bad painting at the auction.

[@michaelcoffey8008]

Think that wire with the loop on it sits into the filler pipe and chain goes fro. It to the cap

Good morning from Siesta Key Florida

[@johnsutcliffe9965]

Great video as always from you guys!!! I’m sure you know the trick on pouring from that type of bucket but if not. Pour it upside down with the spout on top and you want need a breather hole.

[@markpace779]

Bubba looking good. Can’t wait to hear that exhaust. One day need to paint the whole truck camouflage.

[@genezalek4814]

That piece is for the end of the chain that attaches to your fuel cap

[@johnneal1102]

Yes that spring looking thing is supposed to have a chain connected to it and the fuel cap just like on semi's

[@rudyfisher7660]

You need to take a bigger line that will fit over all that and slide over it so it will be. You know covered up enough that it won't wear through so fast. Firehose is a real good fireman's hose is a real good cover for that stuff
