- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 14 ส.ค. 2021
- In "Scruffy Won't Take Closed For An Answer", Taryl obtains this vintage Wisconsin engine from Elk Skins and sees if he can get it running. Parts are hard to come by so he'll try his best to get this old reliable engine running off what little he has. Can he make it work? Taryl IS the MacGyver of small engines, but sometimes even MacGyver faces some pretty tough challenges that he may or may not be able to overcome... Tune in for that!
Prior to and after the attempt, Taryl has to exit the shop to aid Junior who's broke down on a pick-up before local yokel Scruffy comes by in a hurry. He sure gets angry and decides to take it out on a customer's mower when he thinks that Taryl's not opening the door for him. See how it all plays out in this hilarious yet educational how-to video from your pals at Grass Rats Garage. Another classic that's bound to make you smile and knowledge that will stick with you forever. And as always... There's Your Dinner!!

any one who would watch this shit video needs mental help!!!!
Oh cmon Jim, you say that like the video doesn’t have 147,000 views. Maybe it’s YOU that’s missing something? 🤔
Hahaha, it's alive hoho. Awsome channel, yep we need taryl help.😊👍
Lol do you need a hug Jim?
And yet you watched it?
4.1K. Likes..jim..how many likes do your videos get ?
This channel really does deserve an Emmy award. This is the best diy, "program", on the, "airwaves". All due respect to Musti1 who does his videos sans a cameraman and certainly is a contender. In my opinion the videography gives Taryl and the grassrats crew the edge . Acting, characters and skits aside.
They're too busy awarding emmys to Andrew Cuomo.
@@arclightredux6088 There's must be a new category at the Emmy's for sexual harassment.
@@jeremiahsummers8054 And culling the elderly.
Friend, without Slippers, and Jergenstein and uncle Andy.. they got nothing !
Taryl is mechanic, Mustie1 is a bull in a china shop that somehow manages to salvage an old VW every once in a while.
You won't find a better teacher anywhere. Thanks Tarl!
Just found this 2 years later and I'm glad I had an hour to watch Taryl bring this boat anchor back to life! Keep this kind of content coming. We need more people willing to spend time on these engines instead of scrapping them at the first sign of a problem.
Loved how the 1974 Power King tractor got up and running due to this gentleman. He's more than good! He knows his stuff.
If Taryl works on it, of course it will run.
Taryl is The Man
Nice, those old Wisconsin’s are tough as nails. Great old engines….
Hey love your channel!
Subscribed because of the Gravely content, I don't know much about them but I believe they were better than B&S ...
thanks for throwing in a couple free stickers in my order about a month ago, it was a nice surprise .
Back in the seventies, when I was a young apprentice carpenter those Wisconsin engines were on all kinds of equipment, mixers, generators etc. They ran real good and pretty dependable.
I used to have one left in a garage I bought. It didn't have generator starter, it had rope start with huge magneto off the side, like a Joe Hunt magneto.
They were great engines and I worked on a lot of them
yep, great engines, just dont shut them off on a hot day,they were known for vapor lock. other than that, they would run forever!@@philliphall5198
Boy them old Wisconsin's sound good, I do believe they would idle at like 27 rpm's, they just sat there and loped and loped. Nice work
"Start it on the table Taryl...we want to see bad things happen!" Had me in stitches. You crack me up man. Sound like me working by myself in the shop through out the day!
Just started watching your videos the other day. Seems like I have learnt a crap load of stuff in just a couple days. You are a MASTER Mechanic! I bow to you.
My uncle had an old hay baler years ago that had an old Wisconsin 2 cylinder motor on it , this video brought back fond memories , great job Taryl , your videos are # 1 in my humble opinion , Thank you to you & all the gang & May God Bless
Hey Taryl, Just wanted to thank you for a suggestion you gave regarding cleaning up valve seats using emery cloth and the valve to mimic the angle of the seat, to clean them up. It worked like a charm. Working on a Wisconsin ABS engine, virtually zero compression. Thanks to your recommendation, it has compression now!!!! Thanks you Sir!! Your videos are awesome by the way!! 👍🏻👍🏻
The "King of small Engines"... Better yet, Taryl gets me laughing, which at this point in time is worth more than money !! Thanx Taryl !!!!
Every think about getting a rear engine snapper and weld/mount an engine mounting plate to the front? You'd have a drivable test frame. You could make the engine mount a bit higher so you're not constantly stooped over working on an engine. Then when you're done you could drive the test frame out of the shop and park it next to MoTow.
This brings back 1976 shop apprentice memories. Getting yelled at for using the boss’s extra thin Snap-on tapped wrenches to loosen a rusted deck bolt. “Not my Wisconsin tappet wrenches you numb skull!” Today I could sue, and own the shop for being traumatized. Well at least I remember what a tappet wrench is.
Litigation run stupid ... I'm sure that Snap-on cost him dearly 👍
These Old Engines Are Lot's Of Fun To Work On. Thank's For Keeping Them Alive Taryl
Love the fix it videos on vintage engines👍
Keep it up guys 👍
It's amazing just how popular that combination of tattoos is. Every third or fourth guy on your show seems to have them.
I can't sufficiently express my gratitude for all your efforts to share your knowledge and experience with us, and do so in such an entertaining way. I have taken to watching everything and anything you create, even if I have no direct interest in the subject simply because I so enjoy your antics. I recently took to restoring lawn tractors as a hobby, just one at a time and selling them cheap, then starting over. Your programs have proven invaluable to these efforts. Please take yourself to a local purveyor of libations and treat yourself to a "cold beverage" on me. I actually won't be paying for it, but know that my heart is in the right place (even if my wallet isn't).
LMFAO
Someone get Taryl a Wisconsin V4.
I got one on haybaler in barn and it was running last time I used it
These skits are getting better, video to video ! And I like the idea of the grass rats doing revivals!
They definitely aren't trained actors and that's what makes it even better, imo.
Cool project, only Wisconsin I’ve ever touched was about 50 years ago when I was very young. As I recall the motor weighed as much as I did back then. I also remember the shock I got from the Wico mag it had!
Yeah, them mags ain't BSing , eh?
That's how I 'learned' to check for spark on old small engines. "Here, hold this while I spin it over!"
Yep 👍
It’s a light up your life
The Wisconsin engines that we had, in the 1980s, were very powerful or needed rebuilt. They were tough engines. Awesome video here!
Taryl is sporting that nineteen seventies iron on knee patch on his britches from f.w. Woolworths!!! Time for a tuna melt at the lunch counter!!!
Truly awesome, DIY WITH STORY AND A GOOD LAUGH!! THANKS GUYS !!
The wife walks in and said ''That guy can fix anything''. I told her that Taryl teaches and sometimes restores old stuff. She listens when in the area. I'm still disappointed at the low sub number. She is too. Have a friend subscribe.
If he would drop the character and the act, people might sub. I always feel like this is going to be the making of a C movie... But he does know the motors. I’m not sure how I feel about beating on valves with a mallet...or hammer though.
Yes sir my favorite time of the week. I have that same exact engine just sitting on my shelf for years, I may try to get it running now.
I watch these for the sounds. I love when T throws his tools on the table.
Their Audio Sweetening Team of Rats is first rate
I laughed so hard after he started giving that lawnmower a wash. I'm so glad I found this Channel The Comedy is great and you learn something to
Wow I never knew midwesterners could get so excited.
Great video!

50 years ago I owned a 180amp lincoln dc arc welder with a vertical twin 10.5hp wisconsin. it was crank start. when I had a intake valve stick(always the same one). I would remove the spark plug and shoot oil on the stem. then exercise it(pushing it shut with a bent screwdriver) after just a bit it always started. these old wisconsin engines are great.
Nice work. Good to see a piece of history brought back to life.
I love the viewer voice and comments Taryl does. They are the best. Love the video keep them coming. Learning a ton! Thank you.
I enjoy the way you are able to get things fixed and going.
I like to see people who actually know stuff.
Good video
Ohhhhh so this is how you fix an old boat anchor? Taryl, this video is one of your great ones, great skit & a step by step bringing that old Wisconsin to life MANY THANKS for ANOTHER G R E A T VIDEO. 👍👍👍👍👍
I been waitin' on a video on a West Consonant engine! I love them thangs, all them cooling fins and all!!! Thank you kindly!
Elkskins got some of that Devil’s Lettuce 🥬 growing in his truck bed. He’s a big time producer. I like the work apron Mr. Taryl was sporting. Being a mechanic I wear an apron almost every day.
Taryl you are the best. I love how you make fun with the high pitched voice of the keyboard warriors who think they know everything.
Awesome engine!! Thanks for the video Taryl!!
Just wanted to say, love you guys. FIRE IT UP, FIRE IT UP!
The TRA-12D for sure came out of a Bolens. I have a 1971 Bolens Husky 1256 with the TRA-12D. I recently blew a head gasket on it. Was still running on 28 psi compression! Plowed, disked, and tilled my garden with it like that. Bulletproof engine!
I just love these antique videos - epic! Greets from Sweden!
Pretty cool Taryl, I like old engines and equipment, I have an old Briggs and Stratton 16 HP horizontal shaft cast iron engine that runs great.
Scruffy's DNA is literally "all over" that tractor. Good thing for ol' Scruff that Andy's a music lover.
no one has more fun making videos than you guys.
Hello Taryl, what an old good days.. some Yazoo YR60 mowers have similar style and color of engines... what a great combination.... there are few survivors still running today
Thank you ... keep on wrenching... thumbs up to ya
It runs good. It went from a boat anchor to a piece of gold.
Wisconsin robin engines are great engine's if there taken care of. my dad fixed em all the time when i was a kid. Havent seen one in 20-30 yrs. RIP dad...
Taryl thanks for your time on this engine. I love winsconsins!
Me too.
I have an AHH, and an AEH with generator and starter.
as i
As me too
Dude beating on door etc..was spot on funny
This video is awesome, I picked up a bolens 1250 the other day for a song cause the engine had no compression . I followed this video and had her running the next couple days yeeeeeeehaaaaa ! Thank you TARYL !!
I have about 20 Wisconsin engines. When I needed parts, there was a guy in PA that occasionally posted on EPAY. Good Luck, Rick
any chance you have a ACN motor that you would sell
Yes, Rock Creek Consulting!
I was not notified. Sorry for taking so long to get back. I'll have to look, but it will take time. Good Luck, Rick
When I was a kid we had one of those that ran a compressor with a clutch. Mounted on an old lube truck. I was checking out the engine, setting points, ect. I removed the distributor cap and pushed electric start button to check the points and it fired right up with no cap! I swear it ran better with it off! Of course spark was jumping all over the place but we sure got a good laugh over that one!
I watched this like Taryl was giving away money. I do not have a Wisconsin S12D but the repairing/rebuilding steps are similar for every mower. We all just love Taryl and Co
I like when you have stamped ID plates, Seems less disposable than the stuff with the stickers ...
Taryl shirts all in the washing machine, time for Mike's Mowers shirt!
That exhaust looks like it's off a 454! No back pressure there. Yea, I said to much already! 👍🏻👍🏻🏍👀
I like to use a spray bottle with 2 stroke gas to mist the intake with fuel. Its much cheaper then carb spray and it's better for the engine plus it provides some lubricant for the top end. I know Taryl has been doing it this way for 40 years with zero issues. 😄love the videos!
Carb cleaner spray and even starting fluid (ether) are basically volatile solvents so using them on an engine that has been sitting for decades is not recommended because they dissolve whatever oil remnants might remain in the top end, but in the grand scheme, you're being super over-cautious. Rest assured, a friendly-to-the-channel channel, Mustie1, does indeed practice what you suggest. He uses two-cycle fuel as his go-to starting fluid.
Heerlijk om te zien. Wat een mallot speel jij maar wel geweldig kwa technische kennis. Echt heel leuk om te zien. Even bemoediging
1 time u said A is for Allen and F is for Frank...Taryl, Thanks to you I have learned a lot about
smaller engines.
I like the way Tarryl keeps up a running conversation with his other self!
Thank you so much you give good advise. Much happines to your and your family
Yo yo me old mucker.. good to see another video uploaded by the professionals
How are things across the pond mate.
@@TarylFixesAll all good here mate..
I love Wisconsin engines. Built like tanks.
Man awesome you got that thing running 😄
He may be a character but is a good mechanic. That know a lot of. Tricks. And short cuts
Keep on keeping on, Taryldactyle, great video!
Great video Mr Dactyl, very informative as usual. I wonder what project this Wisconsin will be used for.
Stay safe. Warmest regards Chris 🍻🇦🇺👍🏻😷
If you can repair the old 4 cylinder, 65 HP Wisconsin engines, I'd say that you could have about 100 customers from guys in one of the stump grinding forums I know, as one brand of older stump grinder frequently has those engines. Guys there frequently ask about replacement parts and repairs for those engines.
Overhaul of the VE engine is exactly what is missing now.
I would also like to know where to buy spare parts for it, and it will be very good.
"Atlas Shrugged" brought me here. Great video.
That things sounds like a WWII Spitfire when it starts.
Elkskins just called..
Wants it back.
Lol! Nice engine Taryl.
I love it when WD works. It's all I've got.
I went right out and repaired an old Wisconson motor that sat for years after watching this Video and I just purchased a set of Tayrl teeth. I just need the hair and a hat.
I like all of Taryl's videos they are very informative and intertaining.
I had a denim shop apron. Worked really well for woodworking.
"all you had to do was open up!"...lol so good
Great video, so well explained.
An upload from Taryl and mustie today! What a good day!
I got one completely together in back of shop. Need to get it going this summer
It's an excellent video, keep up the good work.
A true classic skit here 😂
Taryl i love your confidence with how you deal with haters because haters are gonna hate
Elk Skins... the human shop rag.... heh heh heh!!! Taryl says it with such a sparkle in his tone..... Hilarious!!!!
3:31 WOOHOO!!! Elk Skins!!! 😀😎
Once again the multi talented Dactyl family has put on another informative educational and highly entertaining production. They have given me countless hours of great fun while learning. They are all great Americans!!! Hope my comment does not get deleted or ghosted for using great and America in the same sentence. Maybe since i left out again the censors will not bounce me as usual. Thank you Dactyl family!!! Y'all are the very best!!
I love it when you’re talking the goofy voice
Taryl, you need to make an ignition types video...battery ignition, magneto ignition, solid state, electronic, etc. Nice to get a shot of that MILWAUKEE powered ratchet.
I restored one of those tra-12d's a few years ago. Was able to find new old stock parts. Runs great.
@m9 ovich I would find an old service manual on line and find the part number that I needed. Then I would search that part number on ebay. Bolens parts and supplies is also a website that specializes in NOS and new Wisconsin parts. Hope this helps.
Won't let me post a link in comments However if you go to google and search "wisconsin tra12d parts manual" the top website that will appear is a downloadable pdf containing torque specs and a parts breakdown of all tr and tra series engines. Hope this helps- Branjo.
I am completely and utterly dead you mentioned Jessco White . If you know you know I guess haha . Top tier stuff there . Great video as always !
Thought we’d see a call to Steve’s saloon.
I really like the shop apron.
I love the names, elk skins lol
we're going in dry , if the valves don't move just get a bigger hammer lmao 🤣🤣🤣
Yeah, funny how the exhaust valve ended up "warped".
Wisconsins were the industrials of the small engine class
Simply amazing man
That's why I can't find my spark tester you have it 🤣🤣 nice job thanks for sharing
