Best video engine block construction/rebuild I’ve seen /coupled with your children’s enthusiasm this is a joy to watch. Thanks Ian. Looking forward to see and hear it running this summer!! Happy new year! It will be the best year ever!! 🤓🤩🙏👍🐝🧑🌾
That's some down right good parenting there .. hands on very important expect them to stick around.. imagine if every parent did that.. be completely different world
If those younsters only repair an engine once, that knowledge is invaluable...Grandpa's combine, links the generations...I cant wait for a field trip for the old girl, running between the other two combines you have... All the best for the new yr from the S/W of the UK...
As I was watching I was thinking of all the things that was going on, and the evolution of time. 1,teaching patience. 2,attention to detail. 3,why things work the way they do. 4,teamwork. But I’m wondering when they tell their children how they helped you rebuild that engine that belonged to their grandfather. Oh to see the amazement in those eyes. The world needs more parents like you. Your children doing this with you, and seeing it run is the best Christmas gift. Awesome job!
Wow. More patience than i could ever come up with. They may never rebuild another engine but they will remember this time together for the rest of their lives. Fantastic!
Great video Ian!! Great to show kids how things work. This used to be taught in auto mechanics class years ago. Days long gone . They will remember this for years to come.
That gives all the Feels! Such a good bonding experience, plus learning how to assemble an engine together, and the way you all worked together is awesome!
Very Cool! But… No DuctTape!? (Literally chuckled when I saw your Red Green display covers on those brand new AC monitors in the shed)😅 Seriously though, super great you get to do that together!
The skills & knowledge these young people learn working with you are priceless. Ian, I tip my hat in admiration to you for your patience & care that you employ working with such a motivated group of young men & women. Indeed a lost art and skill that is in such short supply in so many areas. Are these all your children? If so, they are VERY fortunate to have such a patient and encouraging father. 👍 Best wishes for a happy and productive New Year and hope she fires right up and runs like a champ on the first start up!
That engine block is cleaner then you Ian.😂Pretty and shiny, burnt the old pistons, new is better. Been a long time since I have rebuilt an engine. Good you remember the spacing on the rings, people forget that sometimes.👍It's great to see you all doing this together, the kids are going to pick up some useful skills from this.
I was wondering if Ian was going to show us the timing of the crankshaft to the cam but it was probably just lining up two x's on the gears?? Fun video.
What a great experience for your kids. I didn't see any lubricant on any those parts. I hope it was just the camera angles, and you didn't assemble a dry engine.
Ian, I notice you are soaking parts in a Vevor product. Do you have any general thoughts on the utility of the Vevor brand? Righty Tighty, I heard that very clearly. Your engine shop is a wonderful place for your youngsters to learn a portion of engine care! -Bob...
Oh yes, on all bearings and cam, and valves You will see us applying it on the lifters and valves but engine oil on the piston pin to keep the lube away from the rings

Good to see someone teaching kids how an old engine works
Ian, you and the Missus have done an amazing job raising those kids. Simply awesome.
Wow. More patience than i could ever come up with. They may never rebuild another engine but they will remember this time together for the rest of their lives. Fantastic!
Your ability to teach comes through in all your videos.
Great video Ian!! Great to show kids how things work. This used to be taught in auto mechanics class years ago. Days long gone . They will remember this for years to come.
Making memories!!!!!! Nice job guys!!!! Thanks Ian!
What a great family! Ian if you repaint the combine, don't forget some nice flames and a set of Thrush side pipes :)
That gives all the Feels!
Such a good bonding experience, plus learning how to assemble an engine together, and the way you all worked together is awesome!
It's wonderful to see the young people of our world learning real life skills 👌
Very cool you were holding the light
Very Cool! But…
No DuctTape!? (Literally chuckled when I saw your Red Green display covers on those brand new AC monitors in the shed)😅
Seriously though, super great you get to do that together!
LOL
Family time putting a puzzle together! Great Fun!
What a great education...So COOL!

All
My kids, except the oldest is not there
Go team Steppler!!!
What a humble statement: “I don’t know anything about assembling engines”. And he has an engine apart 😮
What a great experience for your kids! You have a wonderful family! Happy New Year!
Unos genios de abajas a mecánicos 👏👏👏👏👏👍

Lol

Had trouble videoing it all because I was so busy building with the kids lol
00:05:03 No worries, if you break it! 😮 very rare parts.
Had quite a hard time finding these exact rings
Impressive that your kids are helping you out! Farm life!
Love it! Teach them kids!
Awesome family fun.
Amazing!
Nice.
Get them learning l love it
My Clark forklift manual has a great section for those engines
I would have loved to do a project like that when I was the age of your kids.
MR RAINMAKER HERE,,,NEW OIL PUMP,, ALLWAYS WAY BETTER OIL pressure got to have that pressure big dog talk to you later
Excellent!!! Looking forward to seeing/hearing it crank up
But would grandma approve of engine parts on the K table lol
Nope ! 😂
your kids learned more assembling that motor tht they did in a month in school
What a great experience for your kids.
I didn't see any lubricant on any those parts. I hope it was just the camera angles, and you didn't assemble a dry engine.

The only thing I know is it helped remove the oil stain
@@aCanadianBeekeepersBlog Thank you Ian! You also have a well trained mechanic's crew ready when you are!
Ian you forgot to put ASSEMBLY LUBE on the bearing surfaces.
Oh we applied that sticky stuff on all the bearings and cam, oiled the head pin to keep the lube away from the rings 👍
@@aCanadianBeekeepersBlog good Ian
I always smother the rings and bores in oil before assembly
What did Mrs Steppler think when it came time to wash the kids and Dad’s clothes?
Ha! How did you know lol
I didn't see any lubrication on assembly.
Assembly lube used on all parts except rings, engine oil used
No assembly lube? arrgh!
Oh yes, on all bearings and cam, and valves
You will see us applying it on the lifters and valves but engine oil on the piston pin to keep the lube away from the rings
