The reason we all meet here is because were done with premade seasons of whatever content where every episode follows the same plot just with interchangable characters. Also this weekly forcing of creators to upload is a huge part of the depression some of the creators experience. Don't do that, you dont want to be like those guys. All this considered you may think about setting up a patreon account. I mean a buck a video with tons of knowledge beeing submitted and costing you loads of money in parts and also your time is in no doubt, worth it! Cheers

Nice video! About LPG or propane fueled engines, there are many cars over here in Europe that are fitted with LPG systems. These days many use LPG-injection that is piggy backed from the OEM gasoline ECU. I have PowNed a nummer of cars fitter with LPG systems. It works reasonably well. There are a few factoids that are worth mentioning: - LPG is harder to ignite so your ignition system has to be in tiptop shape, good sparkplugs, correctly gapped, good wires, cap, rotor, everything to ensure a superstrong spark. - LPG burns very clean! Oil stays clean for a lot longer. On cold starts there is zero oil washdown from the bores so cilinder liners and pistons + rings last longer. - LPG burns hotter , the exhaust valves and seats will wear faster, eventually leading to burnt valves. Specially when the engine is used at higher revs. If the valves don't user hydraulic lifters you might need to adjust valve lash more often.

U are so calm and down to earth on every job u do, Its almost like a form of meditation or therapy for me to watch.

A divorce took care of that business for me though.... For the past 23 years I've worked for dealerships. First as a tech, then as a service manager. You young man, are a fine example of what I believe is a true technician. When your videos pop up, I definitely watch them! Once every 10 days works for me. Keep up the good work!

Seems in every job I've ever had some incompetent lying fool from who knows where was who got put into any open managers positions. (Seriously, even had one who was strongly suspected to be in the federal witness protection program because he was too stupid to be real regarding the supposed 20+ year experience he had yet could never give a honest backstory to that checked out) Never the good honest hard working Techs from the shops.

Film more of the day jobs and cut those vids down to 12-15 minutes and run as a series as need be. Your daily subs are over 200 and your views are almost a million a month so growth will happen. That's better than those chuckleheads at CNN. Hang in there buddy.

Hay Wes, I'm an old guy that used to do the kind of work that you show. It's good to watch someone else working hard and getting his hands dirty. I can watch and know that I'm not going to smash a knuckle, let Wes do it : ) Thanks for the videos. Carl

Hey Wes, keep doing your thing as it works for your schedule. I love the content, super interesting and I learn something each time. Don't sweat your pace of uploading. You have a business and a family to think about, anything else is a bonus. I'm sure your channel will continue to grow, your business is unique and you are highly skilled.

Learned alot about forklifts in 3 videos, and I'm glad to learn it! Makes me wanna try buying one of those a guy I know has. He has a old U.S navy baby Clark forklift, some hyster spacesavers, and I belive the hyster is a 4 cylinder continental flathead. The CAT lift he had got sold quickly after he bought it. Guy got all of them from an estate sale and they sit at his junkyard. Some they got to run some they never looked at.

Watched a few of your videos, and read the comments. I think you work fine, your decisions and explanations are clear. You do what you do, and that’s fine. I do things differently, but we all learn. Some people need to watch, and if they can help or point you towards better info they should. Love your videos, wish I’d of been born in America or Canada, you seem to keep things running for longer and repair them.

We have a kind of a "not broken, don't fix it" attitude here in North America. Of course we have new things too, but if older equipment is still serviceable, we try to keep running it instead of buying new.

I appreciate this and your Continental rebuild series. It gave me the push to rebuild the Y112 Continental in my old Towmotor. Tag says last rebuilt in 1950, but has all standard size journals and pistons. Runs great, no smoke. And you can take some credit that it turned out well. Thanks.

This may be what's wrong with my fork lift. Ran good one day and stopped . Tank is still full. Next thing is to find the rebuild kit or another vaporizer for this old thing . I learned more in first few minutes about propane on here then with the 3 guys (so called friends) that works on these things everyday. Good job 👍

Was excited to see a new video today. Have been follow the ole Clark since it’s rise of the Phoenix departure from location X. Watching it’s evolution has been pretty satisfying. Great job. Hope to see some more videos on something else that should be scrapped but might still have some life in it Brooks, Santa Rosa , CA

Wes, do YOUR thing! I spent from 5 years old pushing a broom in my Dad's shop, up to 17 years old working on engines, farm equipment, welding, gas and electric, overhauling equipment, running a mill, lathe, Lincoln arc welder. I find your videos very interesting, it reminds me of how we worked growing up. Your business is first, KZbin when you can. Glad that you are posting, when and how long are NOT important.

My take on the cost/value of the truck is about how you know that your vehicle is sound. Those other trucks for sale are an unknown and could well need work to bring them to the condition of yours. I expect that every time you jump on yours you will feel the satisfaction of knowing how you worked on it.
