- This throttle governed-- not hit and miss --was built in 1923 by International Harvester. Restoring this 6 HP (horsepower) McCormick-Deering was a great deal of fun! In this final episode we finish reassembly and see if it starts!
Gotta watch to find out!!!!

The final assembly and startup was a blast. Thanks for letting me help with it! Great work on the final video. Your pal, Hardy!🤣
Congratulations and that is a wonderful video series that takes us on the journey you had with this engine. I appreciate you bringing us along with you. You are a fantastic mechanic, restorer, videographer and great friend. Well Done! See you in about a week.
Thanks for taking the time to make this series! It's a great reference. I am restoring a 6hp M from 1919. My dad traded a load of scrap for it in the early 70s and now at 35 I'm finally going to make it run.
Good deal!!!! Thanks for the kind comment!
A very faithful restoration right down to the original fuel tank, a great job very well and expertly done, thank you from Ireland.
Fun series to watch, you did an amazing and beautiful restoration! I would never have believed that tiny little led could effect the voltage that much to keep it from firing! Great job to all the people involved!
Two accomplished radio/TV engineers are humbled that we (obviously) didn't think of it either!!!!!
What a great series. Watched every video. Thanks for taking the time to go into such great detail on the restoration. You did a fantastic job!
Thank you very much! I really appreciate your comments!
excellent restoration job! You can see on my channel some videos of my stationary engines, I have about 30 engines. Greetings from Argentina!
I will check it out
Great job
Thanks! Happy St. Paddy’s Day!
Nice to see and hear it running Jay. Well done.
Thanks Mark! Wayne and I moved it into the engine shed today! Will have a video out shortly (after Guy's Weekend which started today)!
I just watched the whole series. Fantastic! I’m very impressed.
Glad you enjoyed it!
so very,very nice guy,s.love the old engines.thank you
A lot of fun they are! Thanks!
Bravo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Congratulations Jay, some tremendous work on your end!!!
Many Wally! Sure will miss having you this weekend!
This series was awesome to watch. I was so excited to see it finally run, well done!
We had a blast! Moved it out to the engine shed today. Will have a video up on that AND the starter stick soon!
Nice work and beautiful piece of history there! 👍🏻💪🏻⛽️🔥💨
Thank you! Cheers!
Tip I don't know if you have one but I have a little mechanic handbook and by looking at those bolts and if they're The Originals you may be able to determine what they are and in doing so you can get the torque value if you're skilled enough to know how to read the top of the pole orbit stamp on the nut
Nice job Jay.
Thanks Randy!
Thanks Jay. Real inspiration for my 1 1/2 hp project.
Very nice work. Beautiful engine
Thank you very much!
Bravo Sir! Job very well done!!!! Excellent video as well.
Thank you, younger Jay!
Great video and excellent job !!
Thank you! Appreciate your comment.
Beautiful Job 👍👍👍
I sure wish Wayne came to Grand Rapids, Mi to get my 1 1/2hp[ M running. I think I have a problem is in the governor because the disc is worn thin as is the fork that rides along side of it. Great video!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!...Cheers, Jim
Excellent work . Ilove your starter stick I need 1
Shopdog is building one. Mine is getting a lot of use---
Great job. Your understanding of the ignition system was incorrect. It is a high voltage ignition system and the low 180ohm resistance of the LED across the spark gap was effectively shorting it out.
I’ll give you a A+ Brother .. the starter stick has really got my attention.. perhaps a video on it in the future??
Starter stick video coming up!
She is a Beauty!
Thank you!
Wow.
A+
Appreciate that! Thanks!
Hi I have watched you restore this from the beginning can I ask were did you buy your reproduction badge plate thank you
The McCormick-Deering "decals" came from Flywheel Supply. The reproduction aluminum "timing plate" or "badge plate" came from Hitandmiss2 on eBay.
Thank you 👍👍👍
Ah! The smell (really!) of sweet success! I was wondering if the startup might go as it did in the first clip in this video:

This will def be alot of help as I start my process for my 6hp,, I am kind of nervous ,,, hope I can do it
Drop me an email with your location (Texas obviously). Would be happy to help.
@@Radiotexas thanks buddy I sure will. I appreciate it.
My thoughts immediately ran to the LED loading it down.
Good thinking!
As I said previously (above), two accomplished radio/TV engineers are humbled that we (obviously) didn't think of it either!!!!!
