Scott. As an old farm boy and lifetime mechanic, it's always rewarding when your troubleshooting pays off. Makes you feel like a success. God bless always!
I think it's a sign Scott: first, your air drill attempts to turn itself into a sail-powered unit. Then, the good Lord provides you with a boat. If pairs of animals start showing up anytime soon, let me suggest you take out some high moisture insurance for this year's crop.
I can't get enough of the footage of all the fields as you are planting. Just beautiful. So different then the hills and mountains of central PA. Thanks for the amazing scenery. God Bless!!
Tornadoes have a way of rearranging our world. Nice undercarriage shot of the BB, big tires and all the power but the torque is really handled by the differential bits and axels and must be huge. Thank you and God bless
I would love to tag along with Leg Arms for a day and help with fixing the equipment around the farm, would learn a ton from him. God bless from QLD Australia 🇦🇺
The canoe in the field is funny! Reminds of the movie "The Gods Must Be Crazy", where a guy throws a Coke bottle out of an airplane and it is found by a native bushman and he has never seen one and has no idea what the object is. Great movie. Keep up the good work and God bless!
Good job on the computer diagnostics legs arm!!!!! Nick the pressure of the frozen sprayer had to deal with that in construction days with frozen hoses and spickets!!!! What a mental downer!!! Glad to see you got it going!!!!!!keep up the good work!!!!
Scott, you are a goofball. LOVE IT!! You are absolutely hilarious, and you made me smile. Thank you for that!!! Ol' Trusty was a good piece of metal, but it's sad that he was lost to planting mishaps. Ooh!! Canoe trip in the fields!!! Don't forget an old paddle.. make one if you have enough scrap lumber. lol!!!
When you switch engines to something different or when over fuelling the engine there always seem to be problems that go along with it. When installing an N 14 into a tractor without previous electronic engine there was a small panel with some switches etc. And a small wiring harness. There is an outfit in Phoenix that makes harnesses for any electronic engine, saves you 600 ft or whatever you used to make the transformation. Retired now just got a KT 450 running that hasn’t been run for about 30 years, forgot how good those engines run, a unique sound. Repaired and overhauled many KTA engines. Always enjoyed it. Was a hobby more than work. Happy Farming
I’d 100% trust the results if the welkers tried it out. Seriously would be a decent brand deal, never felt the need to buy flex seal but if Scott nick or dad welker showed it works maybe I’d find a use
way to go Scott, not sure I could have shown the restaint you did and not drove over the canoe, love what you guys do, thank you for sharing, GOD BLESS till next time
Your intelligence and application never fails to amaze me. The scope and variety of the issues that you come up against and subsequently conquer is equaled only by your skill, wit, determination and mental agility. Well done Welker bros, well done!
Keep up the good work guys. I really appreaciate the hard work it must be to film your hard work. :) I'm also glad that Minneapolis is not on fire today. You have helped distract me from that whole fear.
I still see the boo-boo on the shop that Leg-arms created. Oh well, field work is a must. We just finished yesterday with Anhydrous. Now, we wait 5 days. God Bless Welker family!
Hope old trusty doesn’t meet up with beastbine this fall I know your just playing hide and seek with Hollywood Giving him something to look for whilst he’s spraying Such a good brother
Excellent video it's nice to see you guys out planting old trusty will be back but next time it will be stuck in the combine. The canoe was a quite a find out the farm field
Don’t worry leg arms, you’ll find old trusty this fall with the combine.. great video guys. I never would have imagined a boat ending up in the field like that.
Scott if you don’t find who owns the boat you could wield it and take it to the lake this summer Meanwhile be on the lookout for the motor for it Stay safe and well
Hey Leg Arms, that's a glorious find! You can easily repair that with some fiberglass! That would be great for the lake house for your dad to just paddle around and fish!! I was able to fix one with a majority of the bottom smashed in by snow and never had an issue when I fixed it!
Nick end of season when y’all put the sprayer away for the winter. Get some RV antifreeze run through it. People also use it in there above ground swimming pool, to keep pump from freezing up.
Probably not much help to you guys now that you’re only running one of the flexicoil carts, but we ran one of those carts for a long time. We found the best way to unplug the manifold when it plugged up was a shop vac with a very long hose. Start the vac and shove the hose through the manifold. Could clear the manifold out in like 30 seconds. Can’t remember what the problem was but we had some serious plugging issues with that cart one year so got really good at getting it un plugged
Here in Ontario, Canada. Winterize/ flush sprayer boom with Windshield washer fluid, or RV antifreeze, just thought; BIG BUD has on board air , blow out when practical.💙👍
Nice job finding the problem on the little Bud Scott. A canoe 🛶? What the world! LOL. Weather has been cold 🥶 here in Michigan too. Poor fruit farmers are getting hit hard with 25 degree temperature. Keep safe Welker crew.
Welkers good on you for standardizing the majority of your engines, the ability swap,canabilize and scavenge parts is awesome. Just a suggestion, budget for a couple n14 engine blocks complete with ecm modules and save that malfunctioning ecm it can be repaired, it sounds as though you have a bad soder ,transistor or some such problem Goin to fuel pump pins in ecm, there are people who can repair ecm's look in to it.
I used to maintain 42 school buses. We used ta have sister buses we could switch to diagnose. Good plan. Plus 42 women drivers Got a big respect for those drivers. Day in day out. Hats offta them. Precious cargo.
Thanks for the interesting video. Appreciate your time to do this for us so we can follow along. The ECM issue you got fixed. Good thoughts to exchange with another one. But now your truck is down. ECM’s are not cheap I know. Have bought several. You might be able to get a rebuilt one and save a few dollars. Just a thought. Always something on a farm. Sounds like your weather is causing problems with your sprayer. Just a little bit of ice can cause a sprayer nozzle to not function, they are so touchy. Hope it warms some for you for better spraying on the fields. Where would a canoe come from in one of your wide open fields?????????? Suppose the wind had it???? You all hang in there. You are getting it done bit by bit. Thought you had the sprayer trailer ready to go? Some
Hit button too soon. Still a valve on sprayer trailer to fix i think you said. Glad you got heat in the cab on the sprayer tractor. Enough of me for now. You all take care and be safe. God watch over all of you. Bye for now. Iowa farm boy from years ago.
I've had my ECM on L10 cummins rebuilt by Midwest ECM Repair in Colorado. They do great work. I think it cost right around $1000 which I didn't think was bad. They give you some warranty too, but I don't remember how long.
We find all sorts of things in the cane paddocks at home here in Australia, we live next to the main highway we get trailer and truck wheels, we had a car once. But my brother in-law's oldest brother was cutting cane on another farm last year next to a highway and he had a whole Yamaha road bike stuck in the mouth of the harvester, it took them a while to get it out they had to pull it out with a tractor. Before anyone asks how do you not see something like that when you only cut 1 row at a time. Some cane can be so dense and also lay over you sometimes can't even see the row you just cut, and also the harvester operator and haulout driver have to look back a lot so things can be missed very easily. Haulouts get filled while reversing sometimes as well so they can't see whats in front of the harvester.
One thing I've learned after nearly 40 years of crop work a little piece of tin like that so called Old trusty you leave it lay in the field you'll find it again I hope you don't find it with the combine head you might wish you were throwing it in the cab hey stay safe guys
Pist! Leg arms, back on April 1st I heard Nick was going to put that canoe out there just to annoy you. Remember, you didn't hear it from me. You know how touchy he can be sometimes.
Bummer. Old Trusty could have been put to good use covering up that dent in the exterior wall of the shop! A little blue paint, with a smiley face perhaps?
Having two vehicles with the same ECU is a lifesaver. it is very difficult to diagnose an ECU without the tools only a professional mechanic could afford to have...
Oh the things I’ve found in hay fields... and hay bales. We bale a few spots in the city and I’ve found bikes, shoes, balls, fire extinguisher, table saw, bag of tools, hand saw, clothing, even a whole homeless camp.
I have to applaud you on the ECM very good job. How many acres do you guys do I plant 6,800 and bale hay on 2,200 with 300 head. I’m surprised you don’t have a bigger air drill I run a Bourgault 84 foot with a 1,350 bushel cart behind a 620 Steiger the dual do much better for traction then the quadtacs. Used to run axial flow combines like you guys but I just recently went to Lexions in my opinion I think they are a better combine then axial flows now but that’s just me everything works great for whoever wants it except New Holland haha.
Legarms, here i thought you were going to say you were up the creek without a paddle... lol Too bad about old trusty though he seem like a good planting buddy for you.
Ever thought about mounting WiFi cameras on the back of the air drill tank to reduce the wear on the neck and see what's going on directly behind that huge solid mass? Now we now where the tornado in Wizard of Oz landed and it wasn't in Oz or Kansas. Great State of Montana desert. What the pioneers called prairie canoes.
It's all funny till you find it with the combine 🤣
Scott. As an old farm boy and lifetime mechanic, it's always rewarding when your troubleshooting pays off. Makes you feel like a success. God bless always!
Thank you! Disable dude working on asparagus beds taking a break. God bless
It’s a good thing you don’t have one of those new 🚜Green ones or that would’ve been dead until JD showed up to troubleshoot it
Farmers are smart, industrious people, but..... You guys are next level smart! Thanks for sharing👍
Oh the joys of equipment. Hope the rest of seeding goes a little smoother. Thanks for running us through the diagnosing.
I think it's a sign Scott: first, your air drill attempts to turn itself into a sail-powered unit. Then, the good Lord provides you with a boat. If pairs of animals start showing up anytime soon, let me suggest you take out some high moisture insurance for this year's crop.
🤣🤣
This comment didn't age well....
I can't get enough of the footage of all the fields as you are planting. Just beautiful. So different then the hills and mountains of central PA. Thanks for the amazing scenery. God Bless!!
Love how legs arms went through diagnosing the big bud. I work at a tractor shop on mostly older equipment so I really enjoyed his thought process.
Leg arms is certainly very handy and has a ton of common sense 👍
Tornadoes have a way of rearranging our world. Nice undercarriage shot of the BB, big tires and all the power but the torque is really handled by the differential bits and axels and must be huge. Thank you and God bless
Tie the canoe to the Big Bud in case it floods.. gotta think outside the box, buddy!!
I would love to tag along with Leg Arms for a day and help with fixing the equipment around the farm, would learn a ton from him. God bless from QLD Australia 🇦🇺
Love your profile pic, the terror of the skies bearing down upon you!
Scott it’s row row row your boat gently down the field . I hate electrical problems as well but you figured it out . Good man !!
Sure like watching you guys doing all that farming. Would like to meet you all some day in person. Thx for all the good videos
The canoe in the field is funny! Reminds of the movie "The Gods Must Be Crazy", where a guy throws a Coke bottle out of an airplane and it is found by a native bushman and he has never seen one and has no idea what the object is. Great movie. Keep up the good work and God bless!
You should start a collection of Field Finds. It’ll get interesting quickly. So nice to see planting underway. Thanks for sharing!
How lucky are you to have an exact same ECM on another vehicle to test things out. Congrats, on proper diagnostic work.
Leg Arms you were stellar in this vid!! Your RIP segment was hysterical!!!
His daughter was hilarious for plugging her business in. The hustle is real!
Good job on the computer diagnostics legs arm!!!!! Nick the pressure of the frozen sprayer had to deal with that in construction days with frozen hoses and spickets!!!! What a mental downer!!! Glad to see you got it going!!!!!!keep up the good work!!!!
Scott, you are a goofball. LOVE IT!! You are absolutely hilarious, and you made me smile. Thank you for that!!!

Canoe....I guessed a trampoline. RIP Old Trusty. We hardly knew ya. Baby swear...those Bud's are some bad ass machines.
Good video y’all never get tired of seeing old glory flying
Its so relaxing to throw on on of yall's new videos while doing virtual school work.
Ol Trusty will be back during combine season :D
Bet they find "ole trusty".... during harvest season !
Lol! An cuz problems too! 🤑
God bless you this season, and keep you and your family safe

A little Flex Seal and you would have a nice canoe! Lol at least that’s what the commercials show.
I’d 100% trust the results if the welkers tried it out. Seriously would be a decent brand deal, never felt the need to buy flex seal but if Scott nick or dad welker showed it works maybe I’d find a use
way to go Scott, not sure I could have shown the restaint you did and not drove over the canoe, love what you guys do, thank you for sharing, GOD BLESS till next time
Love to see "Old Glory" on the equipment! Good call Welker Farms!
Yep
Your intelligence and application never fails to amaze me. The scope and variety of the issues that you come up against and subsequently conquer is equaled only by your skill, wit, determination and mental agility. Well done Welker bros, well done!
Thank you
Keep up the good work guys.
I really appreaciate the hard work it must be to film your hard work. :)
I'm also glad that Minneapolis is not on fire today. You have helped distract me from that whole fear.
I still see the boo-boo on the shop that Leg-arms created. Oh well, field work is a must. We just finished yesterday with Anhydrous. Now, we wait 5 days. God Bless Welker family!
Scott, your ability, knowledge and skills are amazing....God bless.
We have 3 of those Volvo White GMC trucks as tender trucks. I like em
Troubleshooting is an art form. Good job!
I like the way you describe machinery in the description, “a million parts bolted together working the land.”
Legarms in every video im more of a mechanical guy. Fixes a complicated electrical issue. Good thinking in solving the problem👍👊
Fuel is gonna go way up
Hope old trusty doesn’t meet up with beastbine this fall
I know your just playing hide and seek with Hollywood
Giving him something to look for whilst he’s spraying
Such a good brother
Scott, all you need to do is call Phil Swift to come fix your canoe with his Flex Seal and you have a good canoe.
Gotta love how long it takes to get things just right on any piece of equipment roll on welkers and wiggles
That really highlights why farmers have to be able to fix their own equipment. Nice job Scott
I love the idea of the ear muffs. But when I drive tractor I like to listen to sounds to make sure everything is running right
Can always tell when Nick is working, dude always shows it on his face. Keep it up Nick
Excellent video it's nice to see you guys out planting old trusty will be back but next time it will be stuck in the combine. The canoe was a quite a find out the farm field
Sure hope Old Trusty doesn't find its way into a combine later.
Brad Meacham That was my exact thoughts
@@gavinperry7237 mine too
Who knew an old piece of tin could be so entertaining for Scott
You are the best man for that job mr leg arms
Great idea to repowering the old Big Bud 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 and while you are at it you can put some new Goodyear Titan tires on it💪
Don’t worry leg arms, you’ll find old trusty this fall with the combine.. great video guys. I never would have imagined a boat ending up in the field like that.
Thank you for posting welkers God bless yall 🙏🙏🙏
Thank you!
Scott if you don’t find who owns the boat you could wield it and take it to the lake this summer Meanwhile be on the lookout for the motor for it Stay safe and well

I was able to fix one with a majority of the bottom smashed in by snow and never had an issue when I fixed it!
“I have homework to do!” Leg Arms, You broke the hearts of many who have completed school, but it is the truth. There is always homework to do!
Nick end of season when y’all put the sprayer away for the winter. Get some RV antifreeze run through it. People also use it in there above ground swimming pool, to keep pump from freezing up.
Thanks guys!!
Leg arms is my hero. i can trouble shoot AC voltage but DC drives me crazy. Good job!!
Videos don’t get any better than this , thanks Leg Arms 😀👍🏾🚜🍞
Looked like Coby was runnin from side to side checkiin on the seeder wings foldin up 🙄😂 good job Legarms diagnosin that engine fault 💪💪👍
That’s okay Scott, the combine will find him.
Probably not much help to you guys now that you’re only running one of the flexicoil carts, but we ran one of those carts for a long time.

Wow those are big fields. I allways wondered how u stayed awake doing that now I know. Good video boys. Peace
Wiggles got a huge upgrade getting to drive the little big bud.
Little big lmao
Good job on the diagnostics Leg Arms!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Don't worry, you'll find Ole Trusty again...probably find him hanging out in the feeder house of the combine this fall 🤣🤣
Your proximity to Canada suggests you may have had a visit from Mr. Canoehead. Glad the fixes are going easy. Take care and God bless!
Here in Ontario, Canada. Winterize/ flush sprayer boom with Windshield washer fluid, or RV antifreeze, just thought; BIG BUD has on board air , blow out when practical.💙👍
You’ll find old trusty with the combine 🤷🏻♂️...and that canoe, you win for most unusual finds 😂😂😂
You should find old rusty and put it somewhere in the shop.
He was a hanging on for three days. Give him a place to stay in the spotlight
I Feel for you scott it's hard to loose something you loved
Playing tap's for Old Trusty 🤣🤣.
Get'er done boys.
Scott...the simple fix was quite involved...excellent problem solving! Where did the canoe come from-wow, the wind.
Nice job finding the problem on the little Bud Scott. A canoe 🛶? What the world! LOL. Weather has been cold 🥶 here in Michigan too. Poor fruit farmers are getting hit hard with 25 degree temperature. Keep safe Welker crew.
That tin. It made me so happy for some reason. Then so sad. Crazy.
Should pickup a set of 3M Worktunes, sound proof with Bluetooth. Love them!
Haha 😂 that’s exactly what my dad said. A boat 🚣♀️. Must be a good sign for a “sea” of gold
Welkers good on you for standardizing the majority of your engines, the ability swap,canabilize and scavenge parts is awesome.

Fantastic video you guys are the best just can’t wait for the next video, it’s great having Leg arms back in full Heath. Rob from the 🇬🇧
You had me watching to the very end so I could hear the great Sax music.
RIP old Trustie.... that's really funny.... good job
Pist! Leg arms, back on April 1st I heard Nick was going to put that canoe out there just to annoy you. Remember, you didn't hear it from me. You know how touchy he can be sometimes.
Ol trusty is hanging out with Wilson on a nice desert island under a cornstalks drinking Pina coladas
Bummer. Old Trusty could have been put to good use covering up that dent in the exterior wall of the shop! A little blue paint, with a smiley face perhaps?
Leg Arms, your killing me...Must be a son of the one liner joke, man! Or Pun-man!🤣🤣🤣
Didnt know that old Bud had an ECM. Incredible 👍👍

Scott?
Did you say: "Please!"?😉
Thanks lot for the video! 😊👍🏻
Always interesting at the Welkers.
WOW.. huge amount of acreage to plant
Like a pilot, Always trust your instruments!
Ever thought about mounting WiFi cameras on the back of the air drill tank to reduce the wear on the neck and see what's going on directly behind that huge solid mass?
Now we now where the tornado in Wizard of Oz landed and it wasn't in Oz or Kansas. Great State of Montana desert. What the pioneers called prairie canoes.
Always enjoy watching your videos especially how you all work so good together to keep everything going👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
