Sorry for my poor English .
I hope you enjoy.

Hey, thats really crusty machine :D I paid 6,5k for mine, one of the drive motors was not functioning(luckly that was a easy 250€ fix, by replacing the seals) the bobtach pins and pushings were about to fall off... but i managed to fix them with some 100€ investments. Looking forward to you restoring this old rustbucket :D You know what Andrew said.... "put some paint on it and it will look like it was just painted"
Ahah thanks for watching, i'll try to film the rest ! You did well managing the cost down, I don't wanna count too much but I think i'm close to what you paid now. Next on the list is bucket and rear door, the leaking seals will have to wait, there is still enough oil to lub the chain for now. The paint job is definitely on the list ! Classic AC quote right here ahah
I JUST GOT A 743 FREE, LOOKS FUN TWO FIXES THUMBS UP NICES BOBCAT
Damn, that's cool ! Working condition ?
You need to number each video 1,2,3......so we can follow along as you rehab your machine !
Part 2 should be up in less than 2 hours, I renamed this video ;)
Tu peux nettoyer les injecteurs avec de l'ATF ,c'est de l'huile de boite auto ou direction assistée,c'est très détergent et moins cher que du nettoyant injecteur.
Si ça fume,c'est un problème d'alimentation en gasoil qui arrive avec difficulté à la pompe et qui cause un retard d'injection,ou c'est simplement un mauvais calage de pompe à injection.
Pour voir si les cylindres sont usés,mets un peu d'huile après un test de compression à sec,si il y a une grosse différence sec /huilé tu le verras,même avec un manomètre aussi peu précis qui fuit.
Tu devrais absolument éviter de mettre les mains autour d'un moteur qui tourne,en particulier en tenant un chiffon,à moins de vouloir perdre une main ou un bras.
"Sorry for my poor english" haha elle est bonne, c'est pas le pire que j'ai entendu.
C'est toi qui tient le drapeau de L'ipev sur la photo ?
Salut, merci pour l'astuce de l'atf je ne connaissais pas. Mon problème de fumée a été résolu ce n'était pas un problème d'arrivée de gasoil mais une bourde de ma part ! Je montre ça dans la prochaine partie, j'ai quasiment fini le montage.
Oui tu as raison pour les mains, on ne se rend pas compte jusqu'à se qu'on se fasse avoir. Oui mon test aurait été mieux avec un peu d'huile mais là c'est vraiment l'appareil qui a un énorme fuite :(
Oui pour la photo, vache tu as trouvé ça où !
@@BaguetteWorkshop
Les testeurs de compression cylindre ont un clapet antiretour,le tient ne fonctionne pas bien ,car il relâche partiellement la pression.
Il doit être sale ou grippé,tu peux nettoyer c'est entre le mano et la durite souple là où il y a le bouton de vidage d'air.
T'as un pull sur lequel c'est écrit en gros dessus,et j'ai google à la maison haha.
Tu devrais régler le jeu aux soupapes,c'est très souvent pas fait sur les moteurs.
Ahah bien vu ! Merci je regarderai ce clapet c'est un peu pénible. Fait pour le jeu aux soupapes ;)
Compression should be above 33 BAR / 480psi. Pop test of injectors looked ok. Chain case being empty was the tell tale of failed seals. Pressure test coolant system to identify radiator, water jacket, or head gasket issues which can cause smoking. Get the proper size belt and test charging system. FYI if radiator overflow tank was bad I’d check the water pump the next time you run the motor to ensure it is moving coolant throughout the engine. If it continues to smoke and there is a noticeable loss of power new piston rings and valves could restore compression.
Rough machine, but I like your work.
Thanks ! Yes a bit rough but it's now working everyday or so ;) One day i'l paint it ahah
I hope to see you finish this, I have the same machine.
How is yours ? I did some progress since and filmed it. I'll post a part 2 soon. Cheers
👏👏
If you like this video make sure to check my videos for a more in depth Bobcat restoration series.
thanks for sharing the video just to the left of your valve stack was a pipe is that your return to tank. could you plum yours up with a return to hydraulic oil tank? this would be used with a front mount hedge trimmer this would give you more oil flow
I'm not sure i've understood your comment !
Hey so a friend of mine has a get-away property in france in the mountains where we use the exact same machine, its in better condition but its still pretty bad and could really do with a compleete rebuild
untill then ive slowly been fixing it over the course of 3 years, but its a slow process since we only go there 1 or 2 weeks at a time 3 times a year, not to mention when we're there we constantly need the machine so i cant dig in it too deep,
tho ive been able to fix one of the pins for locking the attachment, wich would often not lock
ive also made it so it can be shut off from inside the cab again (for a long time you had to walk to the back of the machine and pull a metal wire sticking out of the door, pretty sketchy since the machine likes to crawl forward). Since the old cable was broken and i could not find a replacement i used a choke cable for a citroen mehari
Last time i went there i got the wiring for the gauges to work so at least now we have a volt meter, hope to get the fuel and temp gauge working again as well tho, rn we just pour a few liters of diesel at random intervals
Also that temp gauge would be real great cuz its leaking coolant, well..., water and there have been several instances of the engine overheating and blowing out a freeze plug wich is a pain to put back
My shut off cable wasn't working either, i've replaced it with a standard one from amazon for 8 bucks ;) Good luck with your restoration !
Dang man that’s a lot to spend on that rough of a skid steer
Oh hello there ! Yes I know, I wish i was in the us. The skid steer market here is basically not existant. I've checked the prices since and it was definately the cheapest including the repairs. It looks like shit but it does the job. I have a sandblaster, one day it will look good but the priority is the house. Cheers !
@@BaguetteWorkshop good deal my friend as long as it gets the job done and your happy then that’s all that matters, im sure you can sell it now and maybe make money so it’s all good
@@TheHomePros6221 I'm currently watching Jesse's video about his new takeuchi, joystick + tracks for 4k$, i'm gutted you won't see that in France !!
@@BaguetteWorkshop yea I saw that as well I made some vids on my channel fixing up a skid steer as well I paid 2850 for it but I would love to have a tracked machine
I know those toyota are sexy as well :p I didn't remember the price but that's a bargain
love the video thanks have fun
Thanks man !
22 bar is roughly 300 psi. It looked like you had about 250 psi on the video which is too low. I think the rings may be worn from
poor air filter/dust.
Thanks for the reply! I since found my big smoke issue, runs sweet now. It wasn't a compression issue but rather my fault, i'll show the details in the part 2 coming soon. I think the poor values is mostly due to a leaking gauge. Cheers
@@BaguetteWorkshop That is great to hear. Good luck with it.
So sorry my guy I would go no more than 3000 US Your looking at an engine rebuilt kit at a minimum . I would send your injectors out for cleaning ,, luckily the engine kit comes with all the things you will need.
I have no idea wear you would find the counter weight and I bet it's super expensive. Your pressure test concluded it for me the first cylinder was 15 bar the second was 18 and 20 on the last two.
I hope your planning on keeping this unit cause if you plan on a resale. You will never recoup what your going to have to put into it out of it except if it's for your use. One other way to tell you it's your rings and sleeves would be to see how much blow by or smoke comes out while the motor is running and the oil filling cap is off. if you see smoke order the engine rebuilt kit and from the looks of that head gasket in your shop I bet your more than capable of the task. good luck and I'll be waiting for your next video.
Thanks for the advice! no engine rebuild needed, i'm just an idiot i caused the issue, i'll show you soon in part 2 ! Here a good unit goes for around 10K but I plan on keeping it !
What kind of flatbed truck is that!!? And how much weight can put on it!!?
It's a Renault Master B90 tipping bed truck. The vehicule can handle 5500pounds (2T5) but only 2200 by law. Usually people put trailers to move equipment but they are really expensive here in europe. They are not fast but they get the job done. It's really the light go-to construction worker truck in EU, we don't have big pickup able the tow massive loads.
@@BaguetteWorkshop wow that’s a lot of weight!! Haven’t seen one of those before. It reminded me of the older sprinters flatbed trucks. Very cool truck!
Part 2 coming anytime soon?
Tomorrow !
Not good that bloue smoke
How much are cheap? how much did it cost?
I paid 5k6€ for mine, here in France finding below that price for a 2T Bobcat is really hard.
@@BaguetteWorkshop in $? 🤔
That's about the same in USD
That’s a lot of euros for a very worn out machine…if you want to save your ground water don’t wash out oil or chemical based products on the ground…
You are very right, ideally I should have gone to a car wash, I 'll keep that in mind for next time. Thanks for the feedback.
man you got ripped off. i wouldve paid scrap price.
Maybe it was overpriced but still, I have a working machine now for under 6-7k€, in the deadline that I had, so that a win in my book.
