was anyone else screaming at their computer for Joe to move the connecting rod to the correct spot before putting the case halves together. Thankfully he fixed that when putting in the gasket
I was screaming myself at the tv I just knew he was going to see that but nope he dropped it together and put the bolts in.
Yeah I was to lol 😂
Same here
I was like man thats gonna suck .but he's still top notch moto mechanic
Hey been doing mechanic work for 30 yrs and I have definitely made some stupid mistakes it's so easy to overlook something so crucial and after it's all back together be like dam I really did that then laugh and curse as you tear it all back apart lol
No annoying music or endless talking to camera.............Just the build and quality workmanship. Keep them coming mate, I'm loving it.
Agreed focus is on the project, not on his FaceTime
Agree, an no goofing around or shouting. Love it. My favorite channel. Keep up the good work.
Are you new to the channel
Dude this is the best ASMR type content for me. 4am, 8" of fresh snow outside, hot coffee and 2vintage rebuilding an engine. Ahhhhhh. Perfection.
Also, having to band saw brand new bearings was a hell of a plot twist.
Guessing we are from around the same place! Fresh snow and the ground and loving watching him rebuild an engine😌
Its been cold here (30s during day and high 20s at night), but no snow. And today we're getting cold rain. It's going to warm up just enough that it won't snow.
Haven't seen more then flurries in 10 years here.
lol. Same here from NJ. 6am.
The fact that CF Moto made the bearings too wide. Makes me wonder if they could be too thick or thin also.
88° and sunny in Costa Rica and still watching 👀
You should never oil the back of rod bearings, should be as clean as possible so you don't spin them . Hopefully they won't but you are increasing the likelihood by a lot. Love the videos and keep learning 👍.
This IS IMPORTANT! Install the bearings into the rod DRY, then oil between the bearing and crank!
(Sorry for repeating you Craig but he *needs to see this* )
They run in oil continually, you don't think oil gets under the continually?
@@johnnyjohnson2942 Oil will never get between the bearing and rod because you install them clean and dry and the bearing crush pins them tightly into the rod. So much so that when you remove them 100,000 miles later the part number and size from the back of the bearing will be imprinted onto the rod.
I sure hope this doesnt bite him! The oil on back side of bearing will actually reduce clearance between bearing and crank.
Came to say this. Outside of bearing should be dry.
24:36 😮 no, joe! Not the back of the bearing 😢
But lubing the back makes the bearing easier to spin! Lol
Amasing what I, at 60 year old, have learned from this young man. I knew only enough to fiddle about with old 6 and 8 cylinder engines, but only minor matters. I've learned about spark, compression and petrol. Never knew that. The list goes on. Well done to you! Enjoyable and quite educational. cheers!
Absolutely my friend 😁 . All the guys in my family are mechanics so naturally I took two turning wrenches like a 🦆 to water. I'm 49 now and I can fix anything on a car or a truck but motorcycles are a bit different. Basics I can do but there's a lot I don't know and thanks to @2vintage I'm catching up real quick. As far as I'm concerned he's got the best technical bike channel on the interweb 🤠 ..
Just a suggestion. I was taught that when tightening or loosening bolts to use gravity to help, especially with lug nuts, etc. When you were torquing down the rod bolts, you were doing the opposite. You were actually lifting the crank off the workbench. If you had flipped it around, you would have been pushing down to tighten. Gravity would have assisted in two ways. First, it is easier to 'put you weight into it" and second, since you would be pushing down, it would have helped 'anchor" the crank to the workbench and it would not have slid around so much. Great on the persistence!
after sitting for 3 months, i would have forgotten every re assembly detail...Nice job! he did mention he watched earlier videos.. i would have still been scratching my head ..
I bought a camera just for that reason, 3 months isn't bad, try 2 years
Don’t kid yourself he’s looking at the manual , that’s the magic of the camera start and stop with a flawless look.
Was always told never put oil under a bearing as it changes the clearance
Very true! Install them clean and dry.
@@mikesimpson1635 adding the oil adds a layer albeit small film and you couldn’t get correct clearance reading when that oil works itself out it might only be a 1/4 of a thousandth.
You're a Godsend. You make the final hour's push through nightshift possible. Bless you my man. 🙏❤️
Two hours of my nightshift left. Need to watch at least 2 episodes.
Dang what job do you have where you get time sit and watch videos and get paid for it.. 😂
@@staygold902 ....... just lucked into one of those jobs where you are at a desk monitoring equipment remotely. Only gets crazy when the poop hits the fan so lots of idle time.
Made my Friday morning..solid rebuild. So many videos you've made show neglected oil changes main reason for the engine failures. 2nd..oil and water pump failures. Excellent video!!
BRAVO, tackling those projects that many of us would RUN away from. Nice to see the parts washer coming in handy
Even as an experienced mechanic, you are a experienced and knowledgeable professional. You are checking off all the boxes. Very happy to see you added the parts washer to your prep. I would like to know exactly what you are using as a cleaner please. I have watched every video. I’m glad watch you grow and continue to prefect your skills. Continue adding to your toolbox with the very best available. It will save you time and effort and will pay dividends. Thanks for sharing and I’m hoping you get started with shop build on the land.
I AM OLDER THAN JOE'S FATHER AND IT IS SO MUCH FUN TO WATCH HIS SHOW BECAUSE HE HAS GROWN FROM A CHILD INTO A SUPERSTAR!
Why you yelling?😅
Your mechanical ability amazes me. Some of the ATV's I see you attempt to repair look hopeless, yet you breath new life into them. Keep producing the great content. I'd like to see some restoration videos produced of the vintage items you've purchased.
I absolutely love this channel. Joe is articulate, professional, and humble; all I highly regard. Keep keeping on Joe!
It is very refreshing to see a young man work as hard as you and to remember and enjoy the work that he does man God bless you and keep you keep on making videos and keep on doing what you doing God has a big blessing for you my brother enjoy your videos
I was in winter clothes when you got this , now your in winter clothes lol God bless from Newcastle Australia 🇦🇺
Anybody local to re grind the old crankshaft , as bigger shells could give you some money back against the $1000 for new one but what a good rebuild 🇬🇧👍🔧 Dave
Nothing can replace a good local machine shop. While early on in business, we had one with only one guy doing the cranks. Barney from D&D in Easthampton, and he practically lived there. Over the years, he must've done over 500 for us, and we never had a single failure. He saved us thousands over the years by turning cranks and setting us up with proper sized bearing kits. They don't make them like him anymore.
Yep,just what l was thinking,when watching.
Pity,there's not the money,for old machining shops,anymore.
I was thinking that he could have had it hard chrome plated and lapped it back to spec.
There’s a great shop in Chicago that does that kind of work for aero and auto parts.
This would have been pretty simple.
On the first video he checked that out, but it was an awful lot of material weld on. Too much material gone to get oversized shells. It can be done, but the machineshop would need to offer a very friendly hourly fee to make that work. Some old guys that bought their machines second hand in 1974 might offer the right price.
Such knowledge displayed......love it with the patience you show....great job....and thank you for sharing your time with us
Glad you finally got a parts washer. They make cleaning parts way easier. Not sure if you are aware but they sell parts cleaner brushes that hook up to your metal hose. They have a rubberized hose and run the fluid through the brush. They work awesome and you don't have to flood your basin except to soak.
I'm sure glad that parts came in! Now that I see this video has posted, I know it's going to be a good Friday.
Thanks for your tenacity!
You have the coolest job. For someone that punches a clock, I’m very envious. Love watching you work.
They sell a parts washer brush that hooks to the hose so you can wash and brush at the same time. Glad to see you got one of these for cleaning up your stuff now. Love watching your videos super informational I've been watching you since you started in your parents garage. You've come a long way kid, keep up the great work!
Yeh pity he doesn't use it... 51:50 look at the state of that cover
many years ago when I used to do mad things like strip downs . I used I product called GUNK, brush on spray down, it used to come up like a new block, happy memories 😊
Yup, GUNK was my go-to grease cutter when doing these kinds of jobs. If I didn't have Google, I'd wonder if it would still be still available. 🤔
I think I used Purple Power the stuff worked good for me.
You might look into spray welding the bad crank journal and machining it back to standard. We had that done 50 years ago on our Ford 8N tractor crank…worked great and saved a pile of $$$.
As usual you do a great job editing your videos. Very helpful to many 👍
Joe, this is your finest build so far, very professional video, great production! I'm 69 now and have been an engine builder my whole life, I've built 100's. I just have to comment for what it's worth. I watched the whole video, frame by frame, it's proof you are a captivating producer, you have great narration skills, you held me to the end. I really couldn't fault any detail you did, (maybe put the ring gaps 45 degrees from the thrust face of the piston). I hate all those plastics inside the engine, temperature can affect those parts, it's a worry, maybe next time replace the cam chain guides at the very least, those plastic gears are a gamble. Did we work out why the engine wore so bad? Lack of lubrication from water or maybe even excessive fuel is my guess, the owner prolly buried it in a swamp, displaced all the oil. Just maybe check out the fuel injector isn't leaking or worn out, maybe check fuel pressure. Great job, now that you've done a twin with a shared crank pin it might be time for a Harley, or a Ducati, or a Guzzy, you are from WISC so a Harley would be appropriate, they are really simple, made for the war. Love your work from AUS.
Nice work again, dam good memory , I forgot what I had for breakfast yesterday, let alone 3 months ago!!👍👍😂😂
Love my 1/2 Milwaukee mid sized impact gun. Between that and the 3/4 impact gun from Milwaukee I haven't touched my air tools in years. Makes me wonder what's next in evolution of tools. Great content brother.
Good morning Joe! Thanks for the video! Don't forget to sell me the Bridgestone 175 ! God bless you and your Jade!
For me , that was one of the most enjoyable videos he's done . thanks.😊😊
I was wondering how U where going to get two pistons in that back hole.
Ive found an automotive Hot Tank cleans engine blocks to look like New. Very expensive machines but really deep clean blocks
Holy gritty bearings. You should brake clean the bearings after you're done in the wash tank
Hey Joe, if you take that old crankshaft to a machine shop, they should be able to repair that so you can sell it and get some of your money back. We used to do repairs like that all the time in the Navy.
Was going to post the same thing. Very repairable crank journal.
incredible memory! awesome assembly!
Cracking job joe look forward to seeing it run wasn’t an easy task by no means a lot of hours put into this one buddy for sure take care and have a good weekend 👍👌🔧🔧🔧🐾🏁🐾🐾🦴🦴❤️
you had both conrods in one hole at first before the gasket fitment, nice one Joe on getting this one back together
Yeh I was wondering if hed notice but of course he did. Great watch and so methodical. Looking forward to seeing it run Have fun
Glad to see that Santa upgraded some of your tools to Milwaukee.
You are helping others with your knowledge. Thank you
I was like oh no when i saw those rod bearings, luckily they could be adapted. Hopefully it will run as expected. Great video again. hi5
EXCELLENT... this is why i keep coming back to this awesome channel 💯💯💯🎯
Just wanted to say that I really love watching your work.
my uncle had patience like u and would fix cars and trucks, so much so, the state wanted him to get a dealers license he bought and sold so many in one year, so my uncle recruited family and friends to use their name to sell the vehicles.. lol
Do you ever sleep, bro? Guy has a new video every single day and always finding insane deals. Where the hell you live?! 😂 Love the videos.
This channel is a real highlight of my day!
Just a thought, with what you do, you could use a small pressured cleaning cabinet. My friend sells them. He did a transmission from a truck. Was spotless when I got it.
Nice work Joe. As usual. 😎👍 I've noticed the times you hold a part in front of the camera for future reference and our benifit.
Neat that this engine is build like this haven’t ever seen a quad bike with split rods
Great job!
We used to fill our parts washers with Mineral spirits....
So happy you are finally cleaning your cases before re-assembly. Next time pressure wash it before you take it apart and it won't be so hard to clean in the parts washer. LOVE IT! Great job on that machine. I am hopeful it doesn't grenade for you like it did for whoever bought it initially. That is why you go with Japanese machines. They last a long time and parts are redily available. Assembly lube on all bearings.
Joe. You need a bigger brush for your parts washer. 😉
Awesome work brother! Thanks for the heads up on these China bikes, I will not be wasting my money on one of these lessor Harley Davisons lol! 👍👍
Good friends FTW! He did a beautiful job on them. Props to him.
both rods in the same bore
Haha had to fix
yes thank god the gasket went on i hoping he would see the error before locking it all down
I noticed that as he was training someone.
Nice work Joe. I swear it seems you having been using the same gasket maker tube for years.
I like to see the final results of this rebuild. I was hoping to see the video today. We got our second small snowstorm during the night and woke up to five inches of snow . Oh boy I would have loved to have a UTV to play around with . Too bad you’re so far away from Prince George, Virginia. LoL
You go through more bikes atvs than any other channel on here probly do more than the local bike shop to be honest nothing but part fitters nowadays it's great how you've developed the channel and your old hobby
I have never used water in a parts washer. I always used some type of solvent or kerosene. Whatever works 💪it just never occurred to me.
And then he just needs to use it😂
@@brianmenzer487 gotta think it would work better with a real solvent. You could do what he's doing with a water hose and brush.
On the Jim's Machine Shop channel they ran into a manufacturer issue where they bought engine parts that weren't to spec.
You need a solvent based cleaner Joe for automotive work it will bring you work up better and cleaner.
Citrus based safer to use
A relationship with a transmission rebuild shop would be great so the cases get cleaned in their enclosed parts washer.
@gman77gas, well, that is fine. But if it doesn't clean well then it's useless.
@@matthewfort3740he probobly doesn’t want to use varsol…. I don’t think he wants to burn his house down.
A solvent cleaning fluid would get better results. But using solvents come with other problems.
Joe could really use a proper vapor media blaster, to get stained cases like these pristine!
But the holy grail of cleaning for stuff like these is a dry ice vapor blaster. Not only does it work incredibly well, it also leaves no film or residue, and can be done to parts "in situ", while still installed. Plus it doesn't splash liquid all over, which is important if you are trying to video the process.
It is not the cheapest, but works the best and Joe can justify the cost now that the channel has grown so well. Get one Joe, you won't regret it!
You need to makena website or something and post your vehicles you want to sell. Buyers can see the entire progress. Sell them for what your comfortable to sell them with we all knoe your doing well from just the youtube videos. Love it all keep up the great work. Best youtuber ever right here
Yay, it’s Friday and it’s 2vintage night whoop whoop 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Love your videos. I watch them first thing in the morning. Makes my day.
Awesome vid! Just so ya know, coil cleaner for HVAC systems will take a lot of the stain off of aluminum cases. Keep up the killer content!
Oh yes, looking at de video somewhat later, the siamese conrods also turned my stomach!
Nice test for your audience Joe 😊😊
The parts washer was a great buy but you really need more than a tooth brush to clean the bigger parts.😁
Just finished rebuilding the same engine, and...rookie mistake, had the rods pointing to the wrong pots. Only noticed when I went to put the barrels on and saw the rods were off centre. So...split it and do it again...
I have a fat tire 4 stroke, and a fat tire ebike. The ebike isn't working, but my gas bike runs good.
I would have ground the valves. You have it all tore apart anyway and you know they are good 😊 it would be perfect
Crazy how people treat stuff...my guess is they knew it was gonna get repo'd so they dogged it and didn't care plus with how that staining looked on the outer casings it was left outside in bad conditions......winter? With mud caked on the motor possibly in a environment with heavy clay or possibly ran through a creek with clay banks and not washed.people didn't deserve that awesome machine....Great work btw sir and keep up the awesome content
I enjoy watching your work. I love mechanical stuff. Always have
looking good, for sure a NO. 1 Job ! 👍👍
39:37 I flinched at the shards of metal that were stuck to the magnet, being transferred to the cylinder liner right before honing...
They make an updated timing chain tensioner, those plastic ones will grenade.
Nice job rebuilding the engine Joe, can't wait for your next video
love watching your content Joe , specially the re-builds !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and the old 70's bikes !
Another good fix so far. Would like to see if it runs nicely. Of which it should knowing that you had to replace many parts.
Joe you make the most informative videos ever Bravo!
Water blasting is a method of cleaning aluminum surfaces with high-pressure water, You should check it out. Your blocks would look new again.
How much for a new engine ? Seems very expensive for Chinese parts, Taken to cCeaners cycle ?
For those who are installing their own engine at time code 32 minutes, he merges the two cases together. You’ll notice that he put both crank rods in the same piston hole. Don’t do that cause you’ll have to take the whole case apart again. One rod per cylinder
Loving that parts washer.
Damn Joe eBay has the crankshaft for $200 with the rod on it. they are good sxs for all around stuff but not for speed. man I love what you are doing brother.just waiting on the snow here in NC so I can play.👍👍💪
Morning everyone
I love watching your content and especially love it when you are victorious! Keep up the good work!
Never put oil between the bearing and the rod surface. All bearings, especially Babbett type rely on a critical oil clearance. You have basically added a filler behind the bearing causing it to have a smaller oil clearance.
Always stoked to see a new video upload keep up the great content!
Though I seen case gaskets lol,we all have a bad day now and then,good build Joe
Another great watch of your engineering capabilities Joe but I do think you need to invest into an ice blaster for cleaning parts before you build stuff
Joe I love your channel and your experience is off the chart but I would have hot tanked the cases before reassemble. The dirt and grime is flaking off as you are reassembling.
Joe, great job what your doing, you have a lot more patience and know how, as usual great viewing. Have you thought of doing dry ice cleaning of the motor? would give it the final shine that goes with all the work done on the inside....Just an idea
good work Joe. just currious, any bolts or washers left over after the build? ha ha
Well as far as those parts go, its been another exciting episode of the American Peso !!
Put that Crank in a vice with wooden blocks to hold it while torquing it
So You did not check clearance or use plasta gauge on the crank bearings . You should use white lithium grease on the bearings on the crank.
Hi joe just wondering what do you do with all the stuff that you fix ....love your video very educational...
That gap is massive thats what he said lol love it lmao great videos love how you troll these ppl your a utube master my friend
Your a good hand at rebuilding. This buy a money pit . Think it’s done more miles than stated covered in crap but I am sure you will make it a good machine. Sell your other one and keep this for yourself and the missis. Still a good buy in one sense as newish and an expensive machine .
Another enjoyable video.
Joe. Word of advice.. if you want to enjoy your health when you are as old as some of us are, you should wear latex gloves when you handle oils and fluids, etc.
Also, its been mentioned before, you should title the videos based on the year make model, so that future users can use your video to help them
