All of us need to do all we can to inspire people to do better and do more for themselves and others as well and I really think we have the drive and spirit to become a really great country with great citizens, not that we havent been good, just alot of us can definately do better!

[@ThePaterfamilious]

Great Job with instruction to the kids out there Brother Red Beard!!! Our youth need to learn Mechanics and how to have some good clean fun!!! I'm a Retired ASE Master Mechanic with two College Degrees in Automotive Engineering and 30 years experience and couldn't have explained things better!!! Keep up the good work!!!😂 God Bless your work too!!!

[@colliermcgowan]

I love watching rbg content anyone else who loves it

[@ladybugmoenning2559]

Quick sprunk stop

[@Icantball67]

I would have liked to see you put rest back together but regardless I liked the video. I’ve never built an engine either but it seems easy when someone shows you. Thanks guys!

[@luisrosario8460]

Trust me everyone I don't miss any single episode

[@Awavy1]

Been watching your channel since '93. three things i've learned are: its oye-ul, not oil, lefty loosie applies even laying upside-down-which is mind bending... and hoity toity, still not sure on that though. I think it means "its good" lol love you guys!

[@Skiridr22]

That was a great race Lanny

[@Ratkill9000]

Tekton makes some pretty good torque wrenches. I use one at work and have so for almost 2 years. Does the job well.

[@Skiridr22]

Great episode Red 👍🏾👍🏾

[@ghomerhust]

jeepers mister, your beard's really long!

A really good watch.

Awe you two got matching wedding rings 💖

[@rushhookhornadventures20]

Very awesome video! Next time when honing set the drill to the lowest setting and go in n out fast. A lot better x hatching happens

[@mccathernfamilyprojectsandadv.]

Love your videos i have some go carts dirt bikes and 4 wheelers i have been working on, i need to video everything i do i just dont know how to edit my videos.

[@kristianellis1858]

Great video!

[@gregphillips.1312]

You want to try and aim for a 30 degree angle in that cross hatch for maximum Oil retention and minimum blow by!

[@jermainesmith4788]

Can't wait to see whats coming

[@ravyyyyyyy]

Great video as always man! How's the turbo diesel deuce coming along? I've been dying to see more of it! I work at a commercial vehicles dismantlers and we have a few of those 3 pot Kubotas laying about the yard, they power fridges on lorry trailers, always wanted to build a garden tractor with one of them or maybe an old Lister or Petter engine. Best wishes from Ireland, keep up the awesome content!

[@blur187proof]

What's better, a shorter aftermarket air filter or a longer one on my predator 212 with a stage one upgrades. Upgraded jet, emulsion tube, racing spark plug and header.

[@Greybuiltracing]

If u don’t hone the cylinder walls , will it push oil thru? I bought a new Tilly block and built it from the ground up . Didn’t hone the cylinder walls . It also has a big valve head that I installed bronze guides and recut the valve seat . Also do I need the valve seals ? Never used them and seen them on stock heads . Don’t know if I should use them . Pls help anyone .

[@wrenchg3954]

Guys I have a great idea for I guess either a new project and or a solution for the inhaling of the track all the time. Fab up a sealed Air- Box?! Whatcha think? Cool idea yeah

[@justjackfromsc]

Hey Greg. Do you happen to have a brother that looks a lot like you and is a bbq chef? If not there is a guy that looks almost exactly like you. Thanks for the video and God bless.

[@MudMotorsMax]

I watching like a student at a college. Could you start a Small Engine Academy? Im wanting to build a tillotson soon

[@mikesbarn1858]

Thank you. I was wondering if that weep hole between the cam tap its could be safely opened up. Now I know. Will it remove the need for a catch can?

[@RedBeardsGarage]

You will still need a catch can. It just helps with the oil return from the head to the block.

[@mikesbarn1858]

Thank you. You are the man.

[@megoingfast]

shot from end looks like shot from previous video. Maybe I stepped into a wormhole and saw the future again. It happens.

[@RedBeardsGarage]

Well your really limited with what you can film doing on a yard kart lol

[@megoingfast]

@@RedBeardsGarage this is true. After putting a pair o tater cannons on mine, lighting my face on fire and green screening in Luigi, donkey Kong and toadstool while throwing real bananas at imaginary video game characters, the most I got for comments was "yeah but then you have to stop and reload". Paintball go kart is a popular phrase right now, fyi due to dude perfect video. If you have paintball guns might be able to hit a 1 mil vid. You have the land for it and the karts and people. Just a vid idea.

[@mindhunter00789]

Way better then "Beating It Off " with a hammer BTW

[@donkeyhole2782]

You've done so many modifications that I have to ask you a question: What engine do you prefer for the Trailmaster MB200 minibike? Tilloston or Predator and specifically, which one of the preferred brand? I want to build a reliable yet high performance Trailmaster, but am undecided on which engine I should stake my money. Or if you have no preference, explain also. Please advise.

[@jaygouy7599]

Pretty sure he prefers the Tilloston,because of the way Tilloston has engineered their motors; makes it easier to work on. I could be wrong though man. Hey maybe he will answer you and correct me if needed!! By the way @Red Beard’s Garage I am a new follower and just got into mini bikes and small engines ect, and you have been my main instructor and keep it entertaining for me man!! Thanks Boss!

[@sal_e._mander5151]

Do you guys run hour meters on any of your engines to help tract usage for preventative maintenance?

[@RedBeardsGarage]

No but probably should. I just do it by a good guess lol. We have never had on fail yet so we are doing decent

[@ryan302turbo]

crap, i forgot to ask RBG, what are some good wheel bearings, or should i just go to the bearing shop here and see what they got?? thanks again

[@travismauldin7194]

anything mcmaster-carr sells is good.www.mcmaster.com/Bearings/

[@RedBeardsGarage]

I have had really good luck with Go Power Sports bearings. Never had on go out yet

[@nickturner3918]

You don’t have to but that’s what your boi does

[@bryduhbikeguy]

You can never over lube...2021.

[@nunya6834]

Why didn't you clean the old Head Gasket off before installing the piston? I clean the gasket off first before I install any piston in any engine I'm working on. Just makes for a cleaner install. :-)

[@dnarcr]

Do you sell the apparel? I just looked on your shop and could only find a sticker pack.

[@RedBeardsGarage]

Should be on in a day or so.

[@nathanmattner2358]

Where do you order those dress up bolts that you have on all your engines?

[@RedBeardsGarage]

Pebillet.com

[@nathanmattner2358]

@@RedBeardsGarage I appreciate it! What’s the right legnth? 5/16? I see they offer 3 lengths

[@janicefullerton6201]

Please tell me the total price of a tillason motor and do you sell them? I’m in the market place looking for a rolling mini bike frame can you sell me one?

[@RedBeardsGarage]

I don't sell them but you can buy performance built engines from go power sports

[@LilPopeye]

Anyone knows where to buy these "Tilloston" engines? ;-) They look the same as the "Tillotson" ones, might be cheap copies or even sponsored ones.

[@chadchoate]

I need to get you need a Crankshaft Polisher. Choate Performance Machine

[@chadchoate]

@@RedBeardsGarage I did. Check your spam folder. I just resent it.

[@randytravis3998]

use the 1/4 torque wrench on a nut and bolt in the vice then check it with the torque wrench that you trust .. should be about the same if good ,,

[@SlickTrickRC]

Tekton tools are not Chinese. There mostly made in South Korea. There the manufacturing kings these days. Tekton does make some specialty tools in the USA. I have a bunch of tekton tools. I love them and there awesome forever warranties. God bless

From someone who is color blind I can hardly see the red wax

[@tigattac]

I thought you were suppose to make a cleen-room in your shed, to build those lovely motors! Hate to see a dirty rebuild like this, you need to step up your craftmanship, no kidding. And for gods sake, let Lonnie build his own engine.

[@wrenchg3954]

Whoaaaa. I don't think that cylinder that loni honed was "looking great ". He continued to use the hone after he had broken it . 😳 so I guess its time to go BIG bore, ehh? Lmfao that cylinder was freaking wrecked 💀 😭
