- I picked up this John Deere 160 off the side of the road with a free sign on it, this video gets us to the finished machine, still need a few things that are a little hard to get at the moment but can address them during the summer, the playlist is here for this one, • Will It Run? Free Joh...
for the John Deere318 is Here, • Free Broken John Deere... - บันเทิง
Even though I am 58 year old guy watching you figure out, patch up, work out the problem so much reminds me I'm watching my father getting us by. We were a big family and never had much money and nothing was new. My dad could fix anything and I would watch him and at his creativity and skill. Mustie, you are ALMOST as good as my dad!
David Pianosi I grew in a very very mechanical DIY family too... My mom was little interested in anything but herself, so I spent most of my growing up with Dad, building and repairing... He has been gone for decades, but watching Mustie is like hanging out with Dad and his car guy friends almost 70 years ago..
Reminds me of being stuck in Shopper City's parking lot while dad retuned the points on an Olds V-8 with a matchbook as the .020 feeler gauge that he didn't have with.
We had a shopper city store to.
The wife said "I should not be watchig this (paint shaker)". LOL!

Why not ? At least, your at home, not at a strip club.
@@rverro8478 lol true
Ahhh yes, but the next step is to shake the paint WHILE cutting something with the blade! Multi-tasking is name of the game lol👍
@@marcijunebug 😂
THANKS MUSTIE, for adjusting the camera, setting everything up, moving the camera, getting in close, thinking of us all thetime...can we see at this angle, explaining how this works and what needs to happen to make it work right. Do asthetics here and a little paint there...go adjust the camera again, show and tell, drive around like a kid on a go-cart, having fun and giving us a real-fast tour of your enormous shop, and all of it that you do! then all the editing and uploading that it takes to get it where WE can watch a genius at work...WOW...KEWL !!! Thank you!
Then the paint shaker doo-lolly the mating frogs and the big lake! all of that is gravy!!! Your witt is like non other and your knowledge is out of this world! Thanks again!
Bill, from Tn. 🇺🇸
Still love that comment the other day by someone. Mustie1 is the bob ross of repair! Nice n chilled 👍🏻👌🏻🤙🏻
Hey Darren, you have no excuse for not posting more videos over quarantine!!!! Do it for my sake... Love what you're doing, I'm 17 and I've been watching for almost 3 years now, have learned so much from you, you inspired me to make a little money on the side from school by repairing and servicing old outboards. Started with a few dirt cheap outboards and built up to having enough money to build a small workshop. Safe to say I'm already working my dream job, by turning my hobby into a job!!!
Jake Marsden same
Thanks Mustie for some stability in a crazy world!! Always fun to work on rusty junk with ya!
Primary hand tool = body hammer.
Primary diagnostic tool = white coffee cup.
Mustie1, you're the man! 😁👍
bearings... Can't tell you how many times I've resurrected them.. Skated a 62 mile race in Central park,(inline skating) start to finish in the rain with oiled bearings one side open on each bearing. Basically water lubricated the bearings after a few miles. Race over, skates dried off and put in a bag. 4 days later, back home in california, every wheel (10) frozen solid. Soaked them in W-D 40, then after a day, used my lathe, and spun them in a wheel one by one till they broke free. Then I soaked them again after cleaning them till no more orange came out. Used those bearings for up to 100 miles a week for a year to train in and they actually worked ok. You could hear me coming from a mile away though. :). BAck in the day "fafnirs" were the best bearings..... Like pre 1980.
Another great Mustie 1 series. I am always impressed with the attention to detail and the quality of the finished product. I want to comment on the previous video where you took a minute to address some of the comments. Be true to who you are...don't let the trolls get you down. Your videos are informative and entertaining at the same time. Please Please do not change a thing...remember you cannot please all the people all of the time. Keep up the videos and the great work...appreciate all you are doing during this difficult time. Be safe...
I don't agree with everything he does BUT, I like his way of thinking because, sometimes, you're in a pickle and, the parts stores are closed. I do appreciate him for being genuine.
I enjoy mustie just the way he is!
I detest the term "troll" on the internet. It's the modern way of being a Nazi, that no one can disagree with you or they are evil. That's the easy way out so you don't have to explain your way of thinking.
Nothing runs like a Deere 🦌!!!!!!
It's good to see a mechanic that doesn't have to wear gloves to protect their manicure.
Thank you so much for all you're video's, I cannot begin to tell you how much "GRIEF" you've saved me with your straight forward mechanic skills. "I love the little tricks" like the paint can shaker. " Look forward to more DIY projects of yours, you really do bring them back to life, instead of ending up in the junk pile...
Ah, Mustie it is always enjoyable to watch the coming together of experience, tools and a great stash of parts! Thanks for sharing this with us...
Sawzall paint shaker was awesome
The way he held it was lol.
But... entirely not necessary. :) a recent study showed that most any paint can is actually thoroughly mixed enough in 4-5 shakes.
Thanks, this is getting me through an early lunch in style here in UK. Have a very Happy Easter and stay safe.
I don't hate sundays. I love them!
Thank's for sharing your knowledge and laughter with us.
❤
I get so much joy watching you figure out and repair stuff. And that feeling when you first get stuff running and then drive the stuff. I cant help but laugh out loud in excitement! I can tell from comments I'm not the only one. Thanks Mustie for always brightening up our days!
PS: thanks for the nature clips too!
I learn a great deal of the possibilities for repair (to say nothing of tools and techniques) from your videos. Cool mechanical artistry.
The zip tie thing was just clever. Really useful as well.
Rogue Antilles what was the zip tie trick ?? Thanks 👍🏼
@@vespamorelli7090 Holding on the knob with the too big threads.
Nice video
8:02 This whole grille-fixing bit was starting to feel like Father Ted taking the dent out of his car!
Keith Sherry It’s no use Ted, you’ll never get it absolutely right 🤣
fek .. exactly what i was thinking
"You know, Dougal, For a moment, I thought I had it there". . . . 🤦
Thanks for the glimpse of some of the "The Stash" ! You have an amazing collection and an even more amazing recollection of where things are! I'm like a squirrel burying nuts. My parts are everywhere and I hope I'll find them when I need them. I always have the thrill of discovery... over and over and over!
THANK YOU...for sharing. Watched and very much enjoyed.
At 47.52 I thought that shaft was cherry red from the blow torch and when you grabbed it I was like no! Hot! Then I realised it was a red/rusty bush 🤣
Who doesnt love grabbing a red rusty bush?
Stan Burton 🤣
New ones are graphite colored. I have a set.
Nothing makes more sense, right now... than watching Mustie1 giggle as he test rides a mower he's rescued from being trashed.
I mainly come here to watch you work on your projects,but the extra content at the end shows you have class,love the mating leopard frogs,with a smattering of green frog calls,brings tears to my eyes for when I was young I used to go to the swales behind my mothers house and listen to the frogs and sit and when the frogs suddenly went silent meant the white tail dear were here for a drink,I hale from the northern lower peninsula of Michigan,my family is gone and I live alone,thank you for bringing a song from my past,Happy Easter,God Bless You.
Always a great video Mustie, perfect amount of helpful how to, with zero bs and self promotion!!
"I need a minute.. to myself" Yeah man, I felt that one lol.
Your level of patience is something I admire
The zip tie on the knob shaft trick ----Love this channel and learning things. Thanks Mustie
What a great find, just needed some TLC, and new bearing! 👍👍 Found myself watching and saying the exact words you did in spots!
From the bottom of my heart Mustie, Thank you for these videoes! Im waiting everyday to see if there comes something new. And to say atleast, Im getting MUCH more handy by watching you getting old things back to life! Even fixed my own lawn mower! :) Thank you kindly sir! BTW what happend really to that jetski? Well again, thank you from Norway
I've only just stumbled across this you tube channel- really good to watch- a true engineer and a nice guy as well - thankyou very much - these videos are helping me get through our lockdown here in the UK. 😁
I enjoy Mustie’s channel the best of all this type of content. The term master mechanic applies to him, a god of everything mechanical. Keep up the great content, i learn something with every project.
Thanks Mustie
What a joy to watch you get stuff done! I'm learning a ton.
falling asleep...not feeling good...but im staying up for mustie..the only joy in my miserable life.....
thdevilmancometh feel better friend of the mustie fellowship!
Lol
Alls not bad Amigo.. Chin up!
@Tsunauticus III AKA Kung Flu
Ohhh... your miserable life. Buck up.
1:12 what a moment to remember!!
@Duca did you click the link?
Cannot BELIEVE a all the stuff he has to pick through when he needs something - just amazing. Also really like that he explains stuff and takes the time to show us how things work. Time and again I see fascinating bits in these videos as a result.
Truly enjoy your videos. Thanks for sharing!
Pulled the stops out on this one Mustie1 ;) and I must say what a great job, Loved all 3 vids.
Thank you mustie you inspired me after watching some of the free quad will it run videos. So I am 15 and asked my dad if I could pick up a toa toa 110 arc that was in my area and he said yes cause it was free and we picked it up and got it home I got to looking at it and the problem was that it just needed new wires to the coil and a new safety tether pull and once I figured that out there was spark and it fired right up. Keep up the videos.
That is awesome!
Apart from the shop, the lift, the tools, and the expertise and experience, I a right there with you - salisbury England.
That is a masterclass in mechanical engineering !!!!! I showed this to my son and all the lights in his brain suddenly got power in problem solving. Outstanding stuff.
8AM on a Sunday. Coffee in hand. Love these videos.
@jason crigger you got it
After a 10 hour operation, You gave the patiant 6 years minimum. Well done doc.
I love your small engine videos. I'm retired and do some junk mower work myself. But with a small shop and somewhat limited equipment I do what I can. That's why I watch you, you have a knack of fixing problems with what you have around.
Another channel I love is "Taryl Fixes All." He's mostly just lawn stuff but is very educational and funny.
Keep it up! I love it.
Love the way you talk to the camera like we are right there.
I'll be more impressed when you strap a gallon of paint to the recip saw to mix that!!
I stopped the video and did a screenshot of it! Posted it to Facebook. BRILLIANT!
Jeff Grey when my son was young, I told him once he had to shake the can until he couldn’t hear the BB anymore, that’s when you know the paint is mixed right.
i wonder if that trick would work with an inverted DA sander , then tape your gallon of paint to it
yeah. Someone should come up with an apparatus that uses an otherwise idle recip. saw for that. Would save a trip back to the hdwe. store to reshake a partial can.
@@robj2704 ....A stick would save a trip to the hardware store!
So I wake up this morning, Lord of my castle. I see the notification of a Mustie1 and head to the family room to enjoy my Mustie1 fix. I walk in an my wife is sitting on the couch , she smiles as I walk in and says " First you grout the tiles in the bathroom and THEN you can watch Mustie1" It's always nice to be reminded, who is really the boss. It's worth the wait, I enjoy watching you wrench on stuff. If I'm working in the garage, I will put you on the Tv and it keeps me motivated to keep going or figure out a solution. Thanks and keep it going, I've got a ton of projects to complete.
That sawzall paint shaker ROCKS.
AWESOME!........enjoyed this on Easter morning....rain and wind Southwest Missouri.
Since you requested: Mustie really knows how to lube a shaft.
Mustie, on the 318, the altenator puts out 28 - 30 volts AC. It goes into the rectifier/regulator, and comes out as around 13.8 volts DC. The yellow charge light measures voltage, not amps. It comes on whrn battety voltage is less than 12.7 vdc
Note: Mine had a worn wire, behind the front pulley, where it leads to the starter. This bled voltage off, which caused constant charging, and boiling the battery. The cost of reg/rectifier is $90 from deere, but can be bought, new for around $20, aftermarket. Mine was the exact same Mallory, as the deere was. An oversize snow blower sprocket is available, to make auger turn faster........
Its a Kawasaki part and an aftermarket one is cheap on Amazon.
Sweet deal !! Ole girl is ready to kick up her heels !!
Thanks for another fine repair series. Good enough to keep us entertained during difficult times.
Another great video from the TH-cam Repair Master! Hands down the most interesting channel to watch. I really feels like I'm there. Thank you for making these videos for us. Stay safe.
Seeing that he's in New England are I'm betting Mustie's family came over on the Mayflower. They were the ones down on the lower deck fixing leaks and making sure the it stayed afloat.
Too bad one of his great granddads wasn't on the Titanic. He'd have patched it up and buffed out that scratch before sunrise!
@@Northernstar9370 Yes and she would still be sailing...
I use that tie wrap trick all the time. Good one.
I always learn a lot. Thanks Mustie!
Just started watching your channel about 1 month ago in that time with your information on this channel I have rebuilt the carb on my craftsman T1400 and got it running and mowing my yard and took the Murray 46 inch cut and did a valve adjustment and got the thing to fire off then rebuilt the carb on it as well as changed 3 of the tires on it now gonna take the deck off and use as my yard tractor to pull the cart and do clean up thanks for all the great info I had never worked on a small engine before other than air filter and oil change keep up the great work.
You have more spare parts then anyone I’ve ever seen.
.... and he remembers were it is.... that is even more amazing.
Some times when Mustie picks one of these free bees up and figures out it was just something simple I wonder how the guy feels that threw it out . The guy that threw this thing out has to be feeling pretty good about now. He got his moneys worth from this mower.
Jeff Holland agree!
This is way more than a carb fix or sparkplug or something simple. But with the condition I want a complete sanding of the parts and rust prevention. Please do it right. Do it 100% or just don't do it. I'm that way compete 100% or not at all.
Another quality remove, rebuild and, repair video by "Mustie1", it's always relaxing and entertaining to watch you bring these back to life, for as little as possible. Always educational to watch.
Gotta love a guy that has ALL the tools!
I had a similar issue with spindle bearings. They had grease fittings and sealed bearings. Took out the inner seals and put in new fittings. Been good to go for almost 4 seasons.
Engineered failure.
I could only figure out the grease is to keep the inner spindle from rusting as it served no purpose to grease them other than to see grease come out where the blades were bolted to. Basically wasting grease.
I had a noisy spindle on a Deere John L130, took it apart to replace bearing(s) and found the OEM sealed bearings. Now I just don't grease them.
the grease pumped into a spindle with sealed bearings could work as a heat sink. The spindles do get warm if not hot while mowing for any length of time.
on those bearings i drill and install a grease zerk and drill a hole in the spacer then remove the inner seal on the bearings, keep greased and will last 4 times longer. same on spindles if grease-able remove inner bearing seals.
The spindles made me cry and them buy new ones for mine. No grease fittings but they were cheaper than new Deere ones.
Thank You for the video. It motivates me to work on my broken lawn mower.
Thank you again for an awesome video I learned a lot from watching you fix this lawn mower and a bunch of other ones that you fixed so the years the different equipment thank you again
29:00 He has his own personal horde of bearings, too. Imagine how much TP this guy must have!
None, he's making it on a jig out in back of the house using two old lawnmower motors and shredded mouse nests.
Why do you think there is a shortage, Mustie has it all. My guess is those Combi Van's are loaded to the brim.
@Bob Adam, that's Macgyver.
He’s takes the spray paint off the sawzall and attaches a corn cob...
jayandmargie omg funny
''We do it right cuz we do it twice'' (quote of the day) ;0
And if it ain't broke, we fix it until it is.
@@blokhet Rofl
@@blokhet immortality
That needs to be on a tee shirt.
Fix it till it's broke
I enjoyed all 3 parts. Lots of work with pleasing results. I laughed over and over at the Sawzall paint shaker! Got to try that myself too.
Thanks to your videos, I took my niece's broken-down D120 and a rust bucket LA118, both John Deere and made one solid working machine. It took me 24 hrs of total work put in. Absolutely love the videos.
Another one saved from the jaws of the crusher....Mustie style.
On the 318, test the two wires going to the voltage regulator with an AC meter. Should be 20 to 30 volts AC If it does the regulator may be bad.
kevin faulkner Actually, at full throttle you should see about 28 -30 VAC. The regulator rectifier will cut that by half to about 14-15 VDC. Charging voltage should always be higher than resting battery voltage. Resting voltage on a fully charged battery in good condition should be about 13.8 V.
One person's junk = treasure for you. What sense of accomplishment ... in awe of what you do.
From the q tip drill bit to the paint can shaker i thought i have seen everything!!Hilariously useful stuff!!!
I actually revived a seazed ballbearing in the boogie of my snowmobile once, a sealed ballbearing. Smal screwdriver to pull the plastic lid of and then alot of wd40 and wirebrush action, filled it with grease and bob's your uncle.
And no i dont' like the oversized sheetmetal, make it fit the hole and weld it, grind the welds down and it Will look factree! Vgg gang!
@Beard 79: They make an injector needle that snaps in place of a zerk in a regular grease gun. Let's you grease right past that seal. I got one so I can grease the squeaking bearing in a bread maker.
sometimes it fits well to be a multiarm octopus. Like you with the seat.
It's called "using your head".
Way to go mustie1 another great video thank you
Ahhhh, classic musty morning, drinking coffee and watching possibly the best channel for fixing free mowers and more.
15:00 instead of a zip tie I’ve used fishing line in the past. Also depends on how large of a gap you’re trying to fill.
This sounds like a good tip, thanks for sharing.
I’ve wrapped a little Teflon tape around the threads and then filled the knob with JB weld. When it hardens you can unscrew it and the threads remain. Easy peasy.
I've seen a lot of electrical tape used over the threads of the shaft.
@@jayandmargie outstanding
I am gonna use this on a wallowed out keyway by covering the key and JB weld on the keyway
Ohio farmer, I haven’t tried it on a key way, but imagine it would work fine depending on how much force there is on it. Hope it works great for you!
Please Mustie 1 could we have more videos during our lock down in the UK. I have watched all your videos as educational and for absolute comedy act I’ve watched CT’s how not to do’s. Bob.
The paint shaker lesson was worth the price of admission alone! Hat off to you sir!
always appreciate the nature segments at the ends
I need a minute... to myself. LOL!!
I told you the left front tire was on backward, guess you didn't hear me yell.
Love the Paint mixer!!!!
Now you can do your best Richard Farnsworth and set off to visit a sibling in another state. He drove a 110 so maybe you’ll get there faster. Thanks for reconditioning these abandoned machines and giving them new semi-useful life! Enjoyed watching.
I was a lil bummed you didn't give the deck a nice repaint like you did with the green rear fenders. But excellent job as usual.
Sheet metal needed non skid pads on it.
Good morning from Texas and Happy Easter! Let's get to the video.
That deck sounds like when my daughter makes an iced smoothy in the blender. Whoo! Haha, great fix Mustie!
Mustie1 you are keeping me sane in these mad times. Bravo sir, Bravo!
Don't forget to put some 00 grease mixed with regular grease in the transmission, dry grease is what killed mine. (exact same mower)
When you have to tell him how to do it... just say , I have no control over this but either be gentle or be . Just be .
I once heard a coworker say about our employer, "We never have time to do it right but we always seem to have time to do it over" Meaning right.
Way back in the early 70's, there was an old sign, framed and hanging close to the card-punch clock, at the shop I used to work at, that said, "Why is there never enough time to do something right...but always enough time to do it over !?" It's your job to do it right the first time! In other words, don't half-A$$ the work!
I love watching you do stuff like this -- taking junk that's so worthless that the previous owner just gave it away, and turning it into something that's useful and will actually bring value to someone, and could even be sold for real money. It's just so enjoyable to watch you bring dead machines back to life.
Another successful resurrection to include the traditional celebratory “Banana Buggy” speed ride lol! Tra la la, tra lalala, tra la la, tra lalala! Happy Easter to you and yours Mustie ✌🏼🌏 Thanks for taking us along...
Good Morning Everyone.
morning mate!
I wish I lived in a area they just give mowers like that away. Here they would put it on FB for 150.00 and say I think it needs carb work or something. lol
Yes, the same here. I seen a 20 year old lawn tractor with a blown engine on Craigslist and they want $100.00 dollars for it. I guess it is because people watch the American Pickers TV show and think everything is worth a lot of money.
Yep that’s how it is in GA..ran when parked
Same in Southwest Louisiana!
I admire your perseverance and patience with yourself. I learned ALOT from you. Thank you.
It's incredible what a little bit of hard work and know-how will get you. You are genuinely an inspiration to me, man. I'm going to educate myself so that I can do awesome things like this.
Anyone else thinking the seat safety wire should go through the opening just to the front of the seat instead of out via the gas cap opening?
yes. So it doesnt yank on it when the seat is lifted.
Yes! I was talking to the screen but he didn’t hear me.
Likely that connection will be jumpered and not connected to the seat.
It looks like it, doesn't it? but he has it right, at least it's the same place as ours comes out. The other opening is for the petcock, and it's fiddly enough to turn without having wires to foul up your fingers.
Yup!!!
"Tractor Organ Donor" - lol
OMG , I love the paint shaker. And the always present laugh when success happens.
you do have to watch it by not skipping anything to gather all the good tricks. learned something new everyday.
