THIS is What Went WRONG with My Coleman Sector 550 Side by Side

[@HipaStore]

Keep up the great work, and thanks again for sharing your knowledge.

[@JoeTheFarmer]

Thanks for watching!

[@richardmitchell2527]

I have had one for 5 years and it still has the same battery, it's been a great machine, 260 hrs with regular maintenance and all is goog!

[@JoeTheFarmer]

I agree with you. Just changed the oil and now the battery. The thing has been an anvil. If you want to see what else it can do (and shouldn’t do!) check out some of our other videos with it. We have been tough in it; but it has taken every bit of abuse we give it. Thanks for watching!

[@kevinbedell8558]

Sounds like a fuel injector is a little clogged. Also put it in line filter in.

[@markschroeder3154]

Hey Joe. Glad you have your side by side back. I do have another question. Seem's Joe Kappers KZbin channel is gone. Hoping you heard From Joe Kapper.

[@JoeTheFarmer]

Thanks Mark! Kapper’s good; talked to him last week. I just checked and his channel is still up. That’s weird you can’t see it…🤷🏻‍♂️

[@CopperCreekCuts]

Mark, looks like his channel was hacked. Check the comments in kzbin.info/www/bejne/aIOcfGCtjcycnKc

[@JoeTheFarmer]

Dang; I didn’t know. That’s scary stuff

[@CopperCreekCuts]

Glad it is up and running. Also those donuts looked GOOOOOD! :D

[@JoeTheFarmer]

Thanks buddy! Not much of a sweets guy but they smelled AMAZING! Nice to have the ol’ Coleman back in service. Lol. People either love or hate that machine. So funny.

[@ProudPapaw88]

I have one of those and that’s the only problem I’ve had with it. Put a new battery in after the first couple years lol. Been a good machine. Thanks for sharing.

[@JoeTheFarmer]

Thanks for watching Proud Papaw. We have had a great experience with ours as well and we beat it to death. One tough little machine! Thanks for watching. 😁👍🏼👊🏼

MERRY Christmas!! 🌲

[@JoeTheFarmer]

Merry Christmas Buddy!!!

[@tractorrookie]

👍💪 Battery tender is your friend, my friend. I have 3 and I move them around on my machines. The cold and the heat seems to take it’s toll. But if you buy donuts and batteries, it is a worthwhile trip! I’m glad you got it going!!! Merry Christmas buddy!🇺🇸🚜✝️🌲

[@JoeTheFarmer]

Well said! Especially when the tractor goes to bed for a few months. Merry Christmas to you as well my friend. And glad to see your tractor back home where it belongs!

[@bay9876]

Glad the only thing found in the battery box was the snakeskin and not an energized snake. The mouse was complicit in this event. One for the snake, but the end for the mouse.

[@JoeTheFarmer]

Ha! Truth. The snakes and I get along for the most part. They keep the mice out of the equipment. Now, it is never fun when you hop on a machine and there are eyes looking at you. 🤣

[@nyrainman4897]

Is there a fuel rich/lean adjustment? I have a 400 model with less than 10 hours on it and the tailpipe is totally covered inside with black soot and I believe it is running way too rich.

[@JoeTheFarmer]

Hey! I don’t believe so because it is fuel injected. I would check the spark plug and see if it’s gummed up. If so, could be bad fuel. If bought at TSC they may have put 2 cycle/chainsaw fuel in there. You could try running some fresh fuel and sea foam through it for a while and see if it clears up. If not the fuel, I would call the company and see what they say. But sounds like a bad tank of fuel to me. Thanks for watching!

[@mileshiles1287]

Sweets and coffee is one of my favorites. One issue I seen with the machines is they don't have a inline fuel filter and the fuel injector cloogges. Easy fix from what I seen online. How are you liking your truck looks awesome.

[@JoeTheFarmer]

Well; you got me on the coffee. Love some good strong coffee! I do have an inline fuel filter which looks really clean still. I think that it all comes back to high quality non ethanol fuel and the machine loves seafoam fuel treatment. Absolutely runs smoother with it. As for the truck; I absolutely love it. It’s still way too fancy for me, but the ride and power are top notch and the transmission shifts seamlessly. You get yours ordered?

[@mileshiles1287]

@@JoeTheFarmer My next purchase is going to be a side by side. The problem is I don't need it I just want it. Most of the stuff I have I didn't need but life is to short not to have if you can. I have a 21 f250 with the Godzilla love it first heavy duty truck I've owned. Tows like a dream compared to my 1500 ram it was a great truck had it 19 years it was time to upgrade. Did you put in the inline filter on the Colman or did it come with it.

[@JoeTheFarmer]

You are right; life is short. The side by side will make your life easier…get what you want! Heard a lot of good things about the Godzilla. I thought about getting a gasser, but happy with the diesel. Mine came with the inline filter, but not sure it’s making a big difference. Tractor Supply sets these things up and you really need to know what you are doing to look over their work. I’ve heard people complain about the Coleman but then hear it was set up with 2stroke fuel. They aren’t luxurious, but get the job done. I’d like to have a REAL nice Polaris with a cab like Kapper. But he is rich and famous. 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@usmarshall336]

Okay it's been a month since you popped out a video!! I know you got some projects going on!! Just making sure you're okay!! ✅️

[@JoeTheFarmer]

Hey buddy; I'm good bro! Sick now with the ol' ro na but I'm good. I have a TON of video to go through and edit. I'll get one up today just for YOU! I need to find a way to hunt/film/edit/post at the same time. Lol. How are you bro? Good Christmas? New Year treating you right?

[@dadkicks]

Coleman 500 or Tboss 550? Been my debate replacing my buck 250

[@JoeTheFarmer]

T Boss.

[@dadkicks]

@@JoeTheFarmer thanks for reply!!

[@JoeTheFarmer]

Absolutely buddy. Appreciate you watching!

[@Dontbeafraid2]

Lots of things went wrong with mine. It currently has a broken driveshaft, i have the part but no idea how to put it on. I cant find any tutorials can anybody help?

[@JoeTheFarmer]

Sorry to hear that man. Ours has been ridiculously tough. Like; we have ran over trees with it. But may have just been lucky.

[@Dontbeafraid2]

@JoeTheFarmer very lucky, im missing parts in the rear for the driveshaft

[@JoeTheFarmer]

Have you tried to find an authorized mechanic? Or someone that could do the repair? Depending on where you bought it the store could probably help you.

[@Dontbeafraid2]

@@JoeTheFarmer im 14, i dont have the money for that. Im going to find the parts online and buy them, fix it, sell it and hopefully get a kubota

[@meseahunt]

seems u are leaving out a whole bunch of this story???? using this as much as u do WHY was the battery dead, not good??? 🤠

[@JoeTheFarmer]

Battery was just dead.
