    the fact you can fix these by hand shows the incredible engineering that went behind these machines 70 years ago.... today you need a special “by the way” tool for everything. #righttorepair

      There are still people today like me and the brother in law who will make a tool to fix something it makes things longer but the tool is always there no matter how special the art of mechanicing is dying it's a computer operater and a parts swop the problems usually come back they solve the symptoms but don't dig to find what caused it nowadays

      "By the way tool." Ha your lucky if it's even repairable these days. 15 years ago we could fix it with a tool. Now though most everything is garbage with or without tools.

      @@Boga217 this is true... I follow Louis Rossman on youtube.. Huge advocate for right to repair.. Corperations basically want you to "buy" their equipment... but when it comes time to repair... they treat you like you "rented" their equipment... total scam..... thats why they want all data in the cloud.... to control you and your electronics...

    Back when I was pup, one of my first jobs was at a repair shop that had been in business since 1930. It was absolutely buried in stuff. Two warehouses, a garage, the repair building, and the the grounds around the buildings were 2-8 feet deep in parts, pieces, and trash.
    After 8 months, I made order out of the chaos. I cleaned, scraped, brushed, soaked, sprayed, and sand-blasted about 9 jillion things.
    Seeing you clean those old parts reminds me of those days.
    If you haven't done it, you don't know how much work it takes.

    By all means, keep it going! Your level of mechanical aptitude and openness to discovery is off the charts. It's a pleasure to watch, listen, and learn-even though I'll never do anything of this kind. But your "just do it" attitude has emboldened me to take on a few projects I wouldn't have otherwise, and for that I'm grateful.

My dad used to flatten the coal heaps in the early 50s and all of his brothers also drove them in the 60s/70s and one had sons doing the same in the 80s so for at least forty years my family has been associated with these machines.

I have a pair of German Short haired Pointers. Very similar in appearance and temperament. Essentially they are puppies till they get old. Thank you for these videos

  •  3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Great video as always! However, I believe that the pinion gear is not released by centrifugal force and that those arms are not flyweights. The pinion gear is cut helical, this means that while the pony motor is providing power, the pinion gear is pulling itself tight onto the ring gear. Then once the diesel engine starts, the ring gear will 'overtake' the pinion gear force, thus pushing the pinion gear in the other direction, away from the ring gear. The springs in the shaft causes the pinion gear to behave bi-stable, meaning that once the ring gear starts pushing the pinion gear away, the spring tension will 'pop' the pinion gear off, to ensure it won't grind the ring gear.

    • @brianrvd
      @brianrvd 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      No, he was right. Once the pinion is latched in, it can not move until the arms fly out by centrifugal force and the spring pushes the pinion out of the flywheel. It's in the Cat manuals.

    On the end of those weighted dogs is a screw, one on each, that adjusts the rpm required to kick out the pinion.
    Great video. Waiting to see the pony and big engine going again. Then the under carriage and sprocket so we can see this thing in action. I looked at the manual for the governor those 2 bolts on top under that cover are stops for some adjustments in the throttle/governor. Not sure exactly what. Seems this might be a newer governor that the 1938 than Squatch253 has. Do not recall it being the same.

    Amazing piece of engineering! Just that clutch is a mind boggling contraption! I see a fortune in gaskets and seals in this machine. Great dogs! Thanks for the video!

    It has certainly been a journey for almost 1 hour indeed. Watching you taking taking the pony motor apart, restoring it and putting it back together. I’ve really enjoyed! However, I’m anxiously awaiting your next video installing the pony motor again to see if it functions they way it was intended. Thanks for posting your videos on Old Red. Greetings from the Netherlands. Stay safe and be blessed!

    This overhaul of the Pony Motor Clutch Assembly reminds me of my Grandfather who used to do this kind of work on the farm. When I was a boy and even know, I appreciate the ingenuity of the people that designed this type of equipment.
