Thanks for watching!! Check out our merch at www.junkyarddigs.com/
I don't know if anyone's mentioned it but that carburetor has a governor control on it that's why the secondaries are probably not opening
Hello from Germany 🛣️🛤️🛫🌊 i Love it Video Clips Classic Cars and Trucks Pick ups thx for Clips ❤️🐄🦬🐃🐂 hiha i am Farmer 👍
you should get a small line pinching tool set! If there's a soft line any where before the spot you're separating, it won't bleed out unless you break the vacuum.
Kevin your videos are amazing man you should post more often
When is Mook going to build the motor for Spicy Nova
Always love old truck content
👍
👍

Nice
That shot of the combine with the sunset behind was just beautiful!! A big thank you to all the farmers!!
I don’t usually comment but Mook had me laughing on this one with her diary check ins. Sign language comment, and the shoop inquiry 🤣 I love this episode in particular because we got to see the fix, learned about the combine change over, harvesting, and elevator visit! It was a true full circle and a change from the usual. Great job as always but liked this one extra ❤
My last name is shoop ecxept spelled "shupe" lmfao

ok
Farmers feed the world. They almost NEVER work alone, and they combine efforts and come together in co-operatives to secure their farms. They usually learn to do EVERTHTHING themselves and that's not just to be self-sufficient, but because everything costs a lot of money in farming. Respect for the farmers.
As a guy that grew up around cars in the South and understands a lot of mechanical principles, I am always still learning from your videos. Whether it’s about how a carburetor works, a distributor, secondary air injection. Whatever.
I get enjoyment and education out of your videos even at 41 years of age.
You and Mook keep it up!
governor ?
@@225supersix1977a governor keeps the engine from producing too much instant power, and possibly destroying itself or the drive train.
Ben should consider starting his own youtube channel. He seems to be a natural behind the camera, must run in the family
Maybe he could start by rebuilding that shirt lol
@@jackorwick That shows me he is a busy man that doesnt need a fancy new shirt to work in dusty dirty conditions. That shirt has seen and done things most men couldnt understand!
Farmyard Digs. How to be an everything, because farmers do it all.
Last scene with Ben should have been getting a new JYD shirt.
That shirt is classified as super ultra light 100% cotton, it’s the late summer and early fall collection.
Kevin, give your combine operator some Junkyard Digs T- shirts cuz the one he had on looked like it was from the 70's and holier than the Vatican City. Or moth food
Old MookDonald had a farm E I E I ford
Ok mcmook had a farm with ei ei o 😂
E I E I ohhhhh!
And on that farm they had a shoop e I e I oh (dear) 😂
@@borrisdeacon “they are called shepherds, not sheeperds” 😆
Weirdo
Seeing your bean field harvested totally made me think of John Mellencamp's "Rain on the Scarecrow" I Paused this video, searched it, watched it and shed a tear for all the farmers across our great country. Thanks Kevin and Mook for keeping our old School machines and way of life alive. Nice to see that old truck still doing what it was meant to do. Thanks for the lesson on the Holly Governed Carburetor! Congrats on a great harvest!
Man we have missed you and mook together
I just missed Mook.
they are national treasures.
@@Njazmohmm..🤔. If you say so..
Missed mook 😢
@@Njazmoshe has her own channel i believe
Farming is VERY hard work not to mention the equipment and vehicle knowledge needed..great job
ok
Kevin, It's great to see your planting and harvest videos. Reminds us all of where our food comes from. And it shows how hard the farmers work. I liked your comment about your cousins corn telling us that's where our cornflakes come from.
Peace!
ok
Lovely to see Mook and yourself in the video together. I thing that may be my favourite thing.
Give Tom a hat and a battery tender for being a good friend and Ben needs several new shirts
I believe Ben is fond of that shirt.
I appreciate you sharing this revival and farming adventure with us. For me this is far more interesting than say 3 wheelers videos.
That is a FT motor not a FE. They added the one cubic inch to the displacement to differentiate the FT motors, there was also a 361. Some key differences are a port in the block for oil drain back from a air compressor for air brakes, and the exhaust crossover is in a different spot in the heads so you cant use FE intake manifolds. They typically had smaller valves and ports to increase low rpm velocity for improved low end torque.
I's sure there are other things but that is what I can remember.
They also had forged steel cranks, heavy steel rods, and four ring deep skirt pistons. Very tough rotating assembly but kind of a dog on power lol
Also sodium filled exhaust valves to help dissipate heat under heavy load.
FT signifies "Ford Truck" and yes, there are differences between the engines though the exterior block dimensions are essentially the same. The FT engines were specifically built for low RPMs while operating with higher torque output and were never meant for speed. They were purpose built for heavy work and they were built to last which is why you'll find them in trucks over a rating of 1 ton along with buses or purpose built chassis which were sent to various coachworks for custom built vehicle platforms. The FT displacements were 330, 359 (supposedly), 361, 389 & 391 though you're most likely to find a 361 or a 391. So, can you use the FT parts with an FE engine? Yes and no. Some parts can be used without mods but others require machining. A few parts cannot be used at all. So, about those blocks. The blocks were supposedly cast using a higher quality iron and with wider internal journal webbing which makes many of them more desirable - though you should note that not all of the FT blocks were the same with what you could do with them - not all blocks could be safely bored out to be a 428 for example. Some of them had side bosses cast into the blocks making it easy to convert them into 4 bolt main blocks with the cross-bolt style. They also had steel versus iron crankshafts. The reality is that there are a slew of differences between the FE & FT engines when you look at ALL the parts that make up the complete engines so be warned. Be sure you know what you're getting if you scrounge for parts and know that many of the factory parts are inferior to aftermarket parts or even regular FE parts. The heads or exhaust manifolds would be a prime example. If you're serious about knowing the ins & outs of the FE/FT engines then the smart play would be to spend a lot of time on the WWW reading up on them or grab a few books covering them. Best wishes!

The beans have made their way to the elevator safe and sound thanks to Kevin and Mook, Great job fixing abandoned equipment and farming with it!
That old fella telling you to keep track of what you spend so he can pay you really hit me for some reason. In a world where everyone wants something for free, be that old guy!
Yes Sir that is the way we live in a farm town. everyone looks out for each other.
Old school .. my 82 yr old dad is the same way .. I buy or do something..he's trying to pay me .. get out of here lol
I thought the same thing. Thats a humble old dude
I think he just wanted to see the truck run.
Gotta respect it.
I am hoping the old fella took it for a drive
I doubt anybody's rebuilt that carb in 30 years. 😮
I just did.
I was thinking 31 years... but
More like 29 years. Duuh. You can tell. 30. No way. 29. Yeah.
I'm from northern Serbia which is a part of the great Panonian(Hungarian) plain and it's really similar to this scenery. Also really rich in agriculture. God bless these hard working people that put food on our tables.
I've worked on red combines for 10 years with a guy that's done it pretty much his whole life. Never seen anyone adjust the vanes between corn and beans. We just put them in the middle position and leave alone. Pretty nice looking combine and good explanations of how it works.
Kevin is the carb Dr. Always intriguing when he is working on carbs.
I agree! I wish he would record every rebuild so I could watch.
What I really love about this channel, is his lady friend is talented with the wrenches too. There's not a lot of things like seeing a couple wrench on an old piece of shit together. Junkyard Mook 2024!
I love these planting and harvest episodes. It's cool to learn a little bit about how our food is made.
Seeing an CIH 1660 again is a breath of fresh air. Very few of them left running in my neck of the woods. My dad ran one for quite a while.
That farmer was some operater wow he really knows that machine
He's the best
Wow 13k pounds of beans On that yeild very nice Kevin and Mook 54:30 great video as always @Junkyard Digs
Well, THAT was a fun video! Always good to see Mook "helping" too! I'm a farm boy, but wow I never knew a combine was so complicated! I have a hard enough time with machines that just go and stop! Anyway, fun vid brother! Always love your work! A+++++
They are ridiculous! We should get you off here sometime for some farming stuff!
Take a look at Cole the Cornstar. He and Kevin did a collaboration a couple of years back.
That would be a kick!!! @@JunkyardDigs
Always love old truck content, hard to beat
Lots of yeild on them beans very nice Kevin and Mook 44:30 to 46:07 ben is awesome @Junkyard Digs
I grew up driving a '72 "2" ton with a 391 on my family's farm. It was used to mostly haul water tanks for spraying tobacco and cotton. Man I love that old bird.
A buddy had an ancient (mid 60's?) hot rod Dodge grain truck as heavy as you could get on two axles. The beast had a very torque tuned 426 hemi. Not much good at the race track even empty but it did haul a pretty good pile of wheat reasonably well. Not diesel fast but not much slower either.
I have a lot of respect for farmers. I like how you help each other out with repairs for equipment loan. Mook is hilarious as well.
Amazed by how complicated those combines are. Has to be a maintenance nightmare! God bless our farmers!
You guys are the best. So much joy watching this the gremlin and the Jeep! Thx ❤😊
I really enjoy your guys farming with junk series it's really cool to see you actually get old rusted equipment and actually use it
She runs so much smoother since the carb rebuild Very nice old girl sounds happy now Kevin 13:22 @Junkyard Digs
You need to give Ben a Junkyard Digs t-shirt for his trouble. His shirt was worn out.
The shirt looked like it had been through the combine harvester.
that tee has been his lucky harvest tee for the last 36 seasons
The 391 The casting number on the side of the 105 block is shared with the 391 though. The reinforced main webbing is also shared along with the higher nickel content in the block material. Cylinder walls are usually thicker than the regular FE blocks but not always. The FE is considerably larger than the 302 or 351 The 391 with the original heads is almost impossible to get any type of performance out of them. They were cast with small ports and used small valves to promote high air velocity for efficiency and low end torque. Look for a "352" or a mirror "105" on the drivers side front of the block just below the head gasket area. Also look on the passenger side of the block for a casting number like D4TE-1 or something remotely similar. The spark plug arrangement on the FE looks like this:
HEADSIDE
\ \ / /
BTW the valve cover covers both the head and a small part of the intake on the FE/FT
235 horse at 3800 rpm, and a bit shy on torque compared to the 390 but it's made at a lower rpm. I would say if it looks like a 302 or maybe 351 it is a bored and stroked 351 windsor block. The FE is unlike the rest not to be confused for them. The only one really close is the ford Y-Block. The popular ford V-8 engine before the FE. And it is really only the same in design not nessicarily apperance. Hope the information helps Kevin 2:30 @Junkyard Digs
Nice that you are farming and helping people out with their equipment so that you can borrow it. Keep it up Kevin and Mook.
I haul grain for a living. Usually organic Oats, in a superb ranging between 135,000 - 140,000 lbs. Take offs are s-l-o-w!😂
Ya'll made out pretty good on your crop. Glad ya got it in before the rains!
I was worried the rain was coming for a while now, Glad to see you got the beans in time.
So glad to see the mook haven’t seen her in months. That hecker makes me laugh 😂
I don't know if that tire can actually talk, but it definitely knows sign language!😂😂😂😂😂😂
I have these style flaring tools and they are AMAZING. They are extremely useful, as you said, for redoing brake lines in tight place. Been using them for years with zero issues. Keep up with the amazing content, enjoy this series very much😊
What a great old truck. Glad you guys got her up and functioning once again!
I am never concerned when Kevin opens the hood. He WILL get it running. I'd wager he could get the Titanic started right where it sits.
**Starts banging a crescent wrench on the boilers**
Love the farm yard digs can’t wait for next season!
Man I’m definitely digging the farm series. Cobbling junk together to get the job done. Keep it coming you guys!
What a good looking old truck. You got it running great.
Passed through IOWA recently. Went from Portland Oregon to Virginia in my 1993 toyota pickup. Actually gonna be doing the clutch fluid today. The clutch fluid is currently mud but still works lol. I had almost no problems other than the fact that both lower control arms are damaged and the truck is lowered so the shocks would punch through the control arms and scrape against the ground but ya know not much I could do about that other than replace the damaged shocks and attempt to hold it together to finish the trip. That little toyota is beat to hell but runs like a beast. Love my little truck. Im gonna restor this poor little truck.
That dash with lights on looks very cool
What a Gorgeous old Ford F750 Kevin thanks for the entertainment Sir 0:30 @Junkyard Digs
Finally another amazing video by junkyard digs!
Time when American Quality ment something!
These old machines never dies, all they need is some effort and some work. Great job with starting this oldie!
Really fun video, lots of variety. And a nice ~$2800 haul there
Big respect to farmers, hardest working people on earth.
i love these farm video's man keep it up
never a dull moment with a Mook around !!!!! 😂😂
I like watching your harvest shows they're pretty cool and I like it when you plant your fans get a break from you working on cars it's cool 👍👍👍
The memories you brought back with that old grain truck! That was very nice of you to replenish his brakes and adjust his carburetor! Love your videos and hope you succeed with TH-cam!
I really enjoyed this episode 👍. Working on vintage farm equipment and getting the harvest in....NICE!
Old truck content is my favorite.
My grandpa still has a similar ford grain truck with a 297 and 5 speed, one of the coolest trucks I have driven!
Great Job guy's on getting the grain truck up and running good. It's good to have friends to help each other..
If my math is right…that would be a little under 3k, no wonder all the farm land is being sold for housing developments, our system is so broken here. Good job kev and mook awesome content as always
I wonder why he didn't tell how much money he got???
@@peterrexilius254you can sell your load right away, or keep your receipt(s) and have the elevator hold it for better prices. He may not have sold it right away
Love watching combines work.
There’s Mook - she’s been radio silent and I figured she’d been abducted by aliens to be returned to her home planet. Not yet, apparently.
Isn't being obducted by Aliens and living in Minn the same thing?
❤Thank you to ALL the American Heros in combines❤
We love every friggin one of yall
My input I love when you Involve the old timers love the vibe helping out. " little guy"
as pbg once said "who needs brakes, those things just slow you down"
I would love a Junkyard Digs Farming Channel to see what it is like to be a farmer!!
I love the farm vids. Fixing stuff & using it on the farm.
I don’t know if this truck has one, I’m just guessing because that’s how ours is, but if there’s a red button on the shifter, That’s for a high and low axle gear. If you pull it out, it’ll shift to the higher gear-ratio, and you’ll be able to go about 55. You just have to make sure you have the clutch pushed in when you switch it, because if you don’t, it will jam the crap out of the gears
Mook is so brave. Filming for 120 days or so, with the wolves closing in. It makes the drama.
"Its rock hard. I didn't see that coming."
That's what she said...
Mook was especially hilarious here.
"The last melon, Mook."
"That's a union."
"The last union."
"Or you could say - The last melon."
Had me in stitches.
so the big question is, what is 13k lbs of beans worth?
Right now about $2,300
I used to work at a sweet corn cannery in southern Minnesota back in the early 1970s. The factory had an old Ford F750 with a spreader bed for spreading the cleanings off the sewage screens. It had a five-speed transmission, so we affectionately named it the "Pantera".
Too cool! Thanks for taking us along on your journey.
Lightning McBean is one of my favorite off-the-cuff remarks you've made.
Big old truck. So cool. Let’s harvest those beans.
AWESOME Ford F14000!! So awesome! Great video!
F8000 actually
MOOOOOK....happy Halloween to you guys and be safe
As an aside, these series are pretty cool to watch and more informative than id ever imagined. thank you to the both of you!
Your best show yet. Kevin you're da man and Mook is hilarious and a cutie.
Congratulations on using a REAL combine this year! FDeere!
All farmers are mechanics, yet not all mechanics are farmers
I drove one of these in Saskatchewan in the 80s. This one looks in better shape than the one I drove in harvest. I had to really keep it moving to keep up.
What an amazing video for those of us who never suspected what it takes to put food on our tables! Thank You Guys!
They are real American heroes. Without farmers we are nothing.
I love JunkyardFarming. More of this next year pleas(peas?)
I never thought I'd be so invested in a bean harvest. 😂 Great job Kevin & Mook!
The opening shot of the truck reminded me so much of my Grandpa. He had one of those (not sure if it's EXACTLY the same) that we grandkids called "Big Red".
Since you missed the opportunity, I yelled "Give it the beans" when he started unloading the first field into the truck for you.
The combine sniffing for the bean head had me dying 🤣🤣🤣
That dash is just beautiful. They came in the brazilian bumpsides, full with the three gauges. All the way from 1973 up util 1991.
Wow at how high the beans got 34:14 @Junkyard Digs
Lightning McBean, killed me. That's funny stuff right there.
that was absolutely riveting! thanks farmers!
