I had to take a couple breaks to warm up my fingers in between wrenching. If I only had a shop not packed full of stuff 🙄. Thanks for watching 👍😁

You're welcome! Happy to help out. Merry Christmas 🎄

Yes, the connections can become corroded and cause intermittent issues. The plastic plugs are far from weather proof and sometimes they can become loose or as you mentioned corroded. Also worth noting the black magic ignition boxes on small engines like these can be sensitive to jump starter with oversized batteries. I fried a few in my day! 🙄 Thanks for watching 👍😁

@FlatThunder so did some testing with a volt meter... and it hurts me to say it but my fuckin solenoid was on backwards 🤦 put it on right and cranks right off. need a new carb bc i pulled the old one off and its corroded beyond cleaning and this mf should fire off.

@idriveamerc it happens to the best of us! Happy you got figured out! 👍😁

Holy Canoli! I hope you found a cheaper alternative at a discount store. Thanks for watching! 👍😁

Haven't tackled a no acceleration Fusion, but it could go down multiple different as avenues. I imagine it would have several other codes on the issue. Best of luck on the repair, thanks for watching! 👍😁

Yes, they can work if you are careful not to enlarge or damage the jet....I have used them before though some people shun the idea. Thanks for watching! 👍😁

It frustrates me that new cars are more expensive than they have ever been, but increasingly difficult for the average guy to maintain. 🙄 I think they wanted to remove the grill on this F150 to pull the lights. We definitely saved the customer a big pile of money at the expense of some frozen fingers. Thanks for watching! 👍😁

@@FlatThunder As a point of reference, the standard headlight bulb would have been accessible in my Escape if it had those instead of the HIDs. Significantly cheaper and would have been a less than 5 minute job. Totally agree, too much stuff jammed together.

@chucksterock I replaced a headlamp on a similar vintage Fusion (maybe 2012). It required an inner fender magic reach trick too. Seems like they are trending in the wrong direction.....Mo money and mo problems 🙄. Merry Christmas 🎄

I tried to estimate its year previously, but honestly don't remember the exact details. I am guessing around 88-89 vintage

They are excellent machines! Very powerful and simple by design / all mechanical in comparison to newer machines. Have fun with it and stay safe cheers 👍😁

Hello! Thanks for watching and signing up! Cheers, 👍😁

Thanks for watching! 👍😁

They are beasts! I have compared mine to my much larger industrial tractor and the 843 will out perform it in every aspect..... Except my little 3 point backhoe. Thanks for watching 👍😁

It sure is a sloppy long linkage....I had her kicking out in about from 1-3 pretty smoothly on my way to the scale. Thanks for watching! 👍😁

I feel your pain, it is a crap design! Keep after it and you'll get it. Thanks for watching! 👍😁

One set came with the lights, another set I installed had the plugs sourced separately off fleabay. Thanks for watching! 👍😁

Good idea! I will use a scale and a flashlight to check it next time......I bought a mechanical fuel pump for this old girl. Much to my surprise I found a brand still made in the USA! Thanks for watching! 👍😁

No problem, thanks for watching! 👍😁

Welcome! Thanks for watching 👍😁

I just saw an old Brockway on marketplace. If I had infinite funds I would have bought it to tinker with! Pretty cool body lines! Thanks for watching! 👍😁

A big old diesel with mechanical injection would be pretty awesome! 👍😁

Thanks Zane! Yeah, they are barely worth the time to install. I have looked previously, but even the $30 plus units looked identical and were still made in China. Thanks for watching my Friend! 👍😁

I was entertaining a big diesel conversion and at one point was negotiating on an ISX15..... Wasn't in the cards 🙄. Thanks for watching 👍😁

Unfortunately I did not start the YT channel until after the engine was removed. If you skim thru the playlist on the re-assembly you should get the gist of all that is entailed, just in reverse order. Thanks for watching and good luck on the repair! 👍😁 Playlist: BOBCAT 843; REPAIR SERIES: th-cam.com/play/PLXhqnH7y_t8T-o7nL8nNJgMWR_gRcsnhm.html

She's still lifting all my stuff even after overloading it with the crane pick! Thanks for watching! 👍😁

Thanks for checking out the channel! I have quite a few videos on various different projects. Cheers 👍😁

Thanks Zane! I think I caught one of his videos working on a gage cluster. I will have to check out some more of his videos. Thanks for watching and Happy Thanksgiving 🦃!

It would have been handy if those larger bolts would have unscrewed, but the Metabo doesn't mind! Thanks for watching! 👍😁

That's pretty awesome! Most might find it hard to believe, but I have been to Catalina Island! 2016 vintage. Thanks for watching and keep on boating! 👍😁

I would think it is unlikely, unless the belt is slipping enough to under drive the accessories. In particular the alternator could cause a low charge if it is slipping badly. That would be a much more evident squeal though. I recommend checking the codes and replacing the belt to avoid a potential breakdown. Happy Thanksgiving 🦃

So far it has done everything I have asked of it, but it isn't an everyday use item for me...... In comparison to an old school American made unit it's junk, but it is functional. I noticed the ram doesn't fit well in the head (it's a little sloppy) and the tool plate is soft. Thanks for watching! 👍😁

It took me two 12-14 hour days to complete the build. Add in a couple extra hours on top for rubber mulch and anchor installation. Organization is key, lay out all the pieces in order for a more efficient build. I didn't do this until day 2. Thanks for watching 👍😁

Thanks Zane! I was hoping to find a bolt on solution that was a direct fit, but couldn't find one that opened. It turned out better than expected! Thanks for watching my Friend! 👍😁

I took a gamble and bought a kit off old 'Flea-Bay' if you know what I mean. It's a major online auction site, but some implications exist for using their real name. I think they are still available, try searching 'Ford CL40 CL340 skidsteer Lift or tilt cylinder seal packing kit'. Thanks for watching! 👍😁

I used it last year for a Christmas parade, it worked well but it doesn't respond to load changes well.....I think the old carb is gummed up. Thanks for watching 👍😁

That was close to my first guess too.... She's quite a bit heavier! Thanks for watching.👍😁

If the engine isn't overfull, I am guessing the engine has blowby that is pressurizing the crankcase. Check the oil fill level, check for a plugged crank case breather, check for excessive blow bye, check for a blown head gasket. Thanks for watching! 👍😁

Thank you 'Rust Belt'...... Check out the cab replacement video to see just how rusty it was. Thanks for watching 👍😁

You should be able to use the furnace blower to circulate air throughout your house without any issues. Make sure your furnace blower motor is the correct voltage before trying to manually energize it. In a later video I install central AC on this same furnace. I installed a relay to trigger the AC and the blower at the same time via the thermostat. This is the more sophisticated approach. Thanks for watching and stay safe! 👍😁

Thanks! Thompson's Clear Sealer rolled or sprayed on. Thanks for watching 👍😁

Thanks, I would think all ignition 'key' switches require multiple wire connections. Maybe the two wire switch is the manual off ignition toggle? This one used 4 wires I believe. Thanks for watching 👍😁

Thanks! I was worried about leaks, so I made sure to spend extra time cleaning the surfaces. I think some of the issues people were experiencing were from over tightening the bolts. Thanks for watching! 👍😁

No expert, but first I would check the level and condition of the transmission oil. If it is a shuttle shift I would then inspect the shuttle solenoid valve; make sure it's shifting, damaged internals, plugged with goo and or damaged wires and or faulty limit switches on the directional control. Best of luck, thanks for watching! 👍😁

The Y directly behind the toilet goes to the sink / it has a vertical vent behind it. The main stack also has vent straight out the top before it exits. Thanks for watching 👍😁

Sounds like a nice performance upgrade! I think the customer wants to keep this looking original, but I'll mention it to them the next time we chat. I think the brake hoses might be suspect. Thanks for watching! 👍😁

I did not perform a reset on this Fusion. It didn't have a phone connected to the Sync and I'm unsure if disconnecting the battery requires a reconnect? Thanks for watching 👍😁

Best helper / student! I hope he doesn't get spoiled since his first brake tutorial was on Dad's fancy lift! Thanks for watching my Friend! 👍😁

Thanks! I now have all the specialty tools for drum brakes, yet still manage to pinch out cut myself while working on them, pretty much every time 🙄. Thanks for watching my Friend! 👍😁

Is a Lincoln better than a Ford? It was a rubberized 'tar' based coating and of course 2" foam board is better. It's also quite a bit more expensive......1000% amateur with no desire to be a professional foundation repairman. Just a guy with some tools. Thanks for watching! 👍😁

Hard to believe it's been over 3 years since I smashed it.... It's almost back to normal, but not quite. Thanks for watching! 👍😁
