I've started helping my nephew with tillage and have been running his tracked JD 9230 so watching how you guys operate and seeing the things you watch really help me. Been running something called a "Joker" tillage implement. It needs speed to do its job so sitting in this thing can really be bone jarring. It's been a real eye opener too, going from a JD 730 to this thing!!

If you want to keep battery's charged on Trucks and stuff. You need a cutoff switch (emergency cutoff) that way when you finished with the machine/truck cutoff power with the switch it will keep battery's from discharging as they won't be connected to anything all while the switch is engaged

At least you have some moisture in the ground, that will hopefully help the crops grow this year! A little mud now, for a ton of big crops later!

[@JBAerial]

Hey Zac, do you reckon your electric tarp winders draw power from your batteries and cause them to go flat? I’d imagine they don’t go through the battery disconnect switch therefore are always drawing power?

[@augustzepeczauer]

The pumping help you get is from the accelerater pump

[@philb4049]

@millennial farmer You might think about adding a master disconnect or kill switch on your truck batteries. It makes a huge difference

[@shawndohmen1290]

Someone might have already suggested this but It seems like you have a lot of battery issues with your semi trucks. We had the same issue with one of our trucks. Fairly new batteries. Still seemed like the batteries were bad. Took all the cables off and cleaned the ends up with emery cloth. Fires up every time now 😁

[@farmingwithcarson6940]

That's so funny with the pedal pumping. We have a few old carburetors around the farm, and my dad and brother ALWAYS say to pump the pedal. But when I went to school for mechanics, they told me to NEVER do that. Believe me though, you will need the battery charger if you don't pump the pedal. I don't know why, but it works

[@tiredoldmechanic1791]

Fuel injected vehicles with an electric pump usually run the pump for 10 seconds when the ignition is first turned on then fuel pump won't run again until engine oil pressure builds up. If a fuel injector leaks down or the pump check valve leaks down or a rusty fuel line leaks, it can take a long time to get the fuel pressure high enough for the injectors to function. Cycle the key on for 10 seconds several times to get the system up to full pressure before cranking the engine.

[@andrewlewis3906]

Cycle key 2 or 3 times on white truck to prime fuel line. Fuel is most likely draining back to tank causing hard start. Always enjoy your videos.

[@overlandingjohn1277]

Just out of curiosity, why don't you put all the vehicles/equipment which are stored for a long period of time of non-use on trickle chargers for the batteries?

[@terrylarkin690]

Coming from Minnesota I kept our garage heated all winter and we had a Crack on the floor that was about 4 inches away from edge of the door so I could wash the car and truck all winter. The water would drain into the Crack it worked perfectly so that was my indoor car wash. I'm a firm believer that it works better clean than dirty. And I was a Snap On Dealer then and when the temperature rose above freezing I would wash my truck then. We moved to Florida in 94 and by then was selling Mac Tools and that truck was washed year around. I'm a clean freak like you. I know boring!

[@rumriverpikelake]

Our place is a couple of hours east of you - and just like you we are more than ready for spring to show up. Oh - and Jim? You can put me down as one of those who is NOT anxious for you to get stuck. It's a pain and will always happen when you can least afford the time and trouble.

Check the alternator on your red KW, unhook the battery terminal going to it and touch it back to it, if it sparks you need to replace your alternator, had a Kw at work with the same problem

Hey there Zach, I hope this finds you all well and good! Do y'all not have Stone Quarries in Minnesota, you know, the place where you can buy crushed stone to put on your dirt driveways and parking lots so you don't have to track mud in and out of everything you own?

It was good to see some up close and in cab views of those big machines.

[@derekkwas7210]

The one thing we did with our camper (5th Wheel), was to use the battery disconnect on it so that the batteries don't drain as fast. However, we thought our disconnect was bad so my Dad ended up just taking the leads off the batteries that hook up to the trailer and that helped to ensure the hydraulic jacks would work. Long story short, we were reading the battery disconnect wrong and it worked after that. Just thought disconnecting the batteries physically might help.

[@michaelrussell6661]

Zach yes you are ;) You really really REALLY NEED a cement pad in front of the workshop and the side where there is is already partly a pad..

Had a good laugh at the attempt of starting the truck 🤣🤣

[@cheetothealmighty]

I'll tell you, you have an ID10T error that keeps popping up, it happens to us all at some point. Just a note on the battery issues. Dirt, mud, grime, and road salt can be conductive even if they are dry. Disconnect switches won't prevent the batteries from dieing. The electrons are literally flowing through the crap on the battery's surface from post to post. Clean and cover them. 👌

[@jeffburnham6611]

On vehicles that don't have fuel injected engines, pumping the gas was a way to help get the engine to turnover. They say it doesn't help to pump the gas pedal on fuel injected engines, but instead hold the pedal all the way down as its trying to turn over.

[@erayozkaya1578]

[@63jeepj20]

Try cycling the key a few times before starting the service truck. Fuel pressure has to be high enough for the injectors to spray and after sitting it is probably loosing prime. Have to do that on my 89 TBI 350 if it sits.

A traveling salesman stopped on the roadside to watch a farmer struggling to pick up an enormous pig so that it could eat acorns from a tree. After watching for a while, the salesman got out of his car and walked across the pasture to ask the farmer a question. Why don’t you put the pig down and shake the tree so the pig could eat the acorns that fall to the ground? It would save a lot of time, the salesman added. The farmer looked puzzled, then replied, what’s time to a pig?

If that service truck has throttle body fuel injection and it has set for more than a week cycle the key switch 2 or 3 times before you try to start it (turn the key to on, wait for the fuel pump to quit humming then turn the key off for 5 seconds and repeat). Kind of like pumping the pedal with a carburetor.

[@notthunderr4069]

[@lindenhawthorn4761]

You have to put battery disconnects on pretty much everything. A disconnect switch and some 2/0 cable and lugs are cheaper than batteries.

[@patrickmorgan3326]

That old semi that keeps killing batteries has a short somewhere in the wiring so perhaps you could install a battery cut off switch to save you some aggravation until a repair is possible.

[@randywilson9611]

[@stevehocamp8616]

I started putting master kill switchs on my batteries on trucks and equipment. Has made a huge difference

[@RYAN-nd8bv]

The truck probably has a week fuel pump. Try cycling the key ON and OFF three or four times. Listen for the fuel pump to cycle in between time you cycle the key. It should start this way.

[@dennislonghenry3418]

I have a 1994 f250 with 126000miles it was cranking over alright but n I t firing. My mechanic thought it was the fuel pumps on in each tank. Turns out it was the fuel regulator. Fires off like a new one.

[@RYAN-nd8bv]

@@dennislonghenry3418The Ford's were bad to have the transfer switch that switches tanks to go bad. Could cause them to loose prime and cause hard start, pump from one tank and return to the other or run out of gas when the gauge shows gas because it running off the other tank. That is where I would look if you start having problems again. The Chevy my money is on the fuel pump. Just my 2 cents.

Don’t know if you’ll see this or not but look into putting a master kill switch on your trucks, ours is easy to get to and has never let our trucks batteries die

I would get a meter on your Semi - it has a parasitic draw that drains the batterys.. You can either try and find it with a meter - or install battery shutoff at the batteries.. Probably easier to wire in a battery shutoff switch.. then put warning note "insure battery shutoff is in ON position before starting" -
