    As an industrial trainer who specializes in safety it warms my heart to see you observing proper PPE. It saves and preserves life and prevents many issues down the road. VOC's are wicked bad and I bet this brew good as it is for painting is terrible for breathing or skin contact. Thank you for setting such a good example you are deeply appreciated!

    Can’t believe how quickly that 7 years has gone
    It’s been that long you can’t get that primer anymore lol

    That primer looks like a color the military would paint a truck. Very interesting videos, thanks for sharing.

    I'm loving this series of videos. It took me until this one to notice that the oil pan was part of the block casting and not a separate piece like most motors. That's an interesting way of doing it, giving access to the crank and bearings through a side plate instead. There are just not many Minneapolis-Moline tractors in my part of the world, but I'll have to pay more attention to them when I see them from now on.

    Etching primer, thats a must, that color, irrelevant. The primer is there to stay, it just plain sticks, so will the paint. Nice work once again.

    How would I do a repaint to get me through until a rebuild is done?

    The real deal is if it works. Looks like a good color for a primer and the final coat can go any direction. All my stuff is rattle can. I think about a sprayer but am not really set up for one. I'll just keep shaking I suppose. Are you a certified wrench man for Cat, Cummins or any big outfit? You sure work methodically like one. Maybe a machinist? I'm just throwing stuff out.

      I understand completely. I have been a truck driver/equipment operator ever since I was a kid and got my Army jag fresh out of high school thanks to the draft and a low number. Worked for big and small outfits, mostly local or local jobs anyway. Never did long haul and never wanted to. Usually ran what I hauled, tired and tracked, made no difference, still doesn't. Ended up working for the same outfit for 13 1/2 years after a divorce after 23 years and ended back here at home, trying to work off debts and such. After driving my life away I let my health card go dead to get off the road. Then when I got put on part time and the bennies went out the window I quit and just started helping buddies that need a hand whenever. I have a full time job here at home but still like to burn some fuel when I get a chance, but until then I burn gas in a mower, trying to keep caught up where I can still see the house. I'm a card carrying geezer and a Nam vet and we are out of debt so it doesn't take much to survive. I really like the way you put things together, projects and videos and I knew you had to be a PRO at whatever your job was. So thanks for letting me peek into your life and now you can into mine. I like Rustoleum too and it's my favorite, hands down!

      Squatch253 The auto industry chews people up and spits them out, it seems like everyone I have talked to gets burnt out on automotive. I used to be a full time plastic injection mold technician. I loved it and planned to make a career in it but the way new builds go with anything in that industry everything is a "due yesterday, rush as fast as you can" scenario. Turned into 60-70 hour weeks and I got burnt out in 3 years. Now I'm between careers as well, I work as a machinist running a manual lathe, I am in the process of achieving my long time a dream of being a union heavy equipment operator. Everything is working out so far. Keep up the videos, I love seeing them!

      Thanks Squatch Buddy and tell Pop Welcome Home from me too. WE made it by the grace of God in spite of whet the reining warlords were trying to do. We'll all just keep going till we don't, I suppose. Can't quit!

      Maybe the onion will take care of you and your bank account. I've never been where I was close to a union and always made it. I have a pal that started out poor as Job's gobbler and is a millionaire today that always said 'You make your own luck'. He did. Started out swinging a sheep-nosed rock hammer in an Olivine mine and went from there. I have seen him do the impossible MANY times. He can fix anything and still does. Hope it works for you but watch it. I used to be 6'2" and now am 5'11". Being hammered takes it's toll but I'd do it all over again. Still do when I get a chance.

    Whoever designed that engine had to be on crack. They never gave any thought to maintaining it. But I did enjoy the videos.
