    I'm not a mechanic, but I would say since you have the big piece of equipment, it's worth the extra $1500 to rebuild. So you've got $3,000 invested....not too shabby for what you'd end up having. Found myself giggling out loud at a lot of your content - especially the "love and passion" scene. Really enjoy your vids!

    Before you rebuild, soak the pistons in Barryman B-12 to free the rings. B-12 is a regular tool used by Vice Grip Garage for that purpose. Might as well also lap the valves to make sure you have the best seal.

      witch one you referring to. most listings for b12 is a fuel system cleaner. or an oil change additive or a parts cleaner, for years to fre up rings an stuff i use a 50/50 mix of fuel oil and ATF

  • @8osWeReTheBest
    @8osWeReTheBest ปีที่แล้ว +23

    Your rings are probably stuck on #2 & #3 piston. White smoke from valve cover is blowby from stuck or broken rings. Pull the engine put new rings in ball hone the cylinders just a little and she will run. Also make sure your injectors are spraying good. Don't give up yet.

    put a little 2 stroke oil into the cylinder through the glow plug port and turn it over under compression and a little ether. once combustion starts it should fee the rings up and give a little better pressures.

    I went through the very same thing. Had mechanic after mechanic look at it and all were stumped. Make sure the hydro aux lever is in the center. It's the pedal looking thing down by your left leg/foot. Make sure it's centered. If pressed either direction - its under major load and will not fire for anything in the world.

  • @Mad.Man.Marine
    @Mad.Man.Marine ปีที่แล้ว +5

    Also. Make sure you have a small piece of plywood with a chunk of rubber on it. Make sure the intake tube is open and accessible. That way if she try’s to run away on you when it DOES start you are ready to cover the intake. Don’t give up on it man. She will go. Also you can leave it sitting for a while with straight rust eliminator in it. That may free the rings up. If you rebuild it it’s not hard. I bet it only needs a home and a set of piston rings. And even if you can’t get the case ones. You can go to a “build your own ring pack” company and just tell them the sizes. Dooooont give up!!

    I say soak the cylinders with marvel mystery oil or atf fluid for a while. Then try to start. If you get it going, the cylinders usually come back, not 100%, but good enough. Adding the oil will help with compression and hopefully get it to pop off. Also try All States Ag Parts they usually have tons of parts for older Case engines and very reasonable.

    I haver repaired this model of engine for this same problem.
    1. Use a hand pump or another hydraulic source to raise the boom up all of the way.
    2. Slide the cage all the way forward.
    3. Remove the engine
    4. Remove head and oil pan.
    5. Remove pistons 2 and 3
    6. Hone the cylinders, free up the rings and re-assemble
    If the rings are not broken this will be all labor, no parts. (RTV for the pan gasket)

  • @carlkoeller2276
    @carlkoeller2276 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    Keep at it. A gas engine only needs about 80 psi to run and once it's starts to pop the rings will free up and it will run. I had a perkins last year do the same thing but it started to run on one cylinder then it took off.

    • @Dontlieme
      @Dontlieme ปีที่แล้ว

      You do understand a diesel is compression based right, no spark plugs. If maybe one of the cylinders was down 50 psi, it might run, but when 2 are way lower it will not kick off

    Throw some oil in those cylinders with low compression. This may boost compression enough to fire up. Getting some heat cycles in those rings might help them come around.

  • @funone8716
    @funone8716 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Here's what I've done and it WORKS unless the pistons are melted. Get a round piece of ALu bar, 1/4" smaller than the bore.
    Set it on top of the pistons and push an air chisel onto the top of the alu bar (puck). You'll need a good compressor with 120 psi or higher. Proceed to rattle the pistons with air chisel, after 20, 30, 50 minutes if they are going to come loose, they WILL. If not, HF 22hp Predator swap.

    If it was a six cylinder it would start with low compression as the other cylinders would compensate for it. Probably remove pistons and free up the rings is all that it needs but before i would do that i would try a couple of things. Firstly remove the hydraulic pump off the bottom crankshaft pully and the driveshaft or coupler at the flywheel to the front pumps. So all the starter is doing is turning over the engine by itself as its alot easier and the pumps aren't slowing the starter down.Then put the largest battery you can find in it or even link two together but still keeping the system 12 volts. Then remove the glow plugs and pour some thick oil into two cylinders (maybe the lucas oil additive thats really thick) the quickly fit the glow plugs and try starting. I think it will work. The oil should seal around the ring area and create compression. If you have a 24v battery booster you can spin it over on short bursts at 24 volts till really get some good speed on the engine. Good luck. Would love till see it running.

  • @andrewrobinson2869
    @andrewrobinson2869 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Don’t give up just yet little bit of oil in 1 & 2 to seal the rings so compression will go up a bit, new fuel , some starting fluid and a really good fully charged battery and rig two batteries up so you get a bigger shot of power keep it at 12 volts , I think you will get it. You so very close. Also you don’t know if the leak is in the valves as you didn’t reset them so when you put a little oil in each cylinder then give it another cylinder test that will tell you if your Val es are leaking if the numbers stays the same if they go up will you have a leak in your cylinders but you will sort it out, don’t give up.

    Bud you have no idea just how close you are to getting it running! I'd try a bit of ether (starting fluid) to get it started(just a quick burst into the intake) and hopefully, those rings will start freeing up. I would try that before completely pulling out/tearing down the engine.

  • @ramblingman8992
    @ramblingman8992 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Personally, I would have gone to the trouble of removing the engine and doing a full taredown to check for damage to the bore and conrod bearings before spending out on gaskets.
    It would have given me an idea of what I needed to replace parts-wise.
    Also, it's a good idea to check the head surfaces for flatness and lapping in the valves in order to prevent loss of compression due to head warpinng or bad valve seats.

    • @arnoldromppai5395
      @arnoldromppai5395 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      ANY TIME YOU PULL ANY HEAD off you send it out to have it shaved and valves done, it cost effective, you cant just throw a new gasket on and be done, it will fail and you end up doing it over again, they are never in spec once pulled and never reuse the head bolts, lapping the valves your self a waste of time unless you have the machine to do the valve an seats on the head.

  • @chuckster6513
    @chuckster6513 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Here is a thought, Ya remember them little holes in the old head gasket that were not in the same location on the new head gasket ?
    Could it be that they are passages to where your fuel is introduced into the cylinders ?
    Your new head gasket may be blocking fuel from the injectors to the cylinders !
    The cheap check is to remove the head, clean it up, spray both sides with copper spray paint, let it dry well, then reassemble and give it a try.
    Worth a try.
    If you try this, check the block to see if there is a hole in the block that corresponds to the holes in the gasket.
    That od number on tail of the new gasket number may have been due to a change made in the head on later models.
    During the late 50's into the 60's the copper paint on head gaskets was a trick used by race engine builders.
    I still use it on small air cooled engines.

    • @NockRanch

    Seeing rust or corrosion in there is obvious to the Intake being open ( it had no air cleaner or cover ( not sure whether you removed it ) ...and sitting for awhile it will start that process ( which cylinders will depend on valves being open etc..) I never worry about that..like the heads they are carboned and normal looking and actually not bad...but yes wire wheel them clean as it is apart... and water in your cooling circuit also was not anything strange ( due to open areas to moisture penetration ) .. just flush it out good before repairs are done and use later..

    Well, don't feel too bad. I bought an older one (1835B) at an on-line auction ($6K delivered) based on the video of it working and the smile on the guy's face. I still had it delivered directly to the shop (I can't spell mchaneic) and they provided $9K more "worth" of head grinding, gasket and hose replacing, and a bit of tuning. It runs smooth like a 80 year old cigarette smoking kitten... but the hydraulic pump leaks... so I spent $15K and still there's a little more to do. You have inspired me to skid into the final mile using my own elbow grease, once I can find some, they said O'Reilly's has it, the best is the kind that comes in a tube, at least I know that, jeez.

    As pretty well everyone else suggested, I think you should lap the valves and verify the valve seals as much as you can. While doing that, soak the cylinders with WD-40 or some other oil that can free up stuck rings. With two cylinders not firing, this isn't likely your problem, but if it was my skid steer, I would also verify that all of the pistons came to approximately the same height in the cylinders before I reinstalled the head. It doesn't have to be an exact measurement - eyeballing is usually sufficient. There's no point in reinstalling a head on an engine that has bent conn rods or failed/missing bearings (yes, I have seen where an engine was rebuilt and the rebuilder somehow left a set of lower conn rod bearing out!). You'll just have to remove it again 😞

    Another line of thought would be to get a used Kubota, Perkins, Yanmar or other 3 cylinder diesel engine. They are all over the place littering up junkyards everywhere. I mention Kubota, Perkins and Yanmar because the parts are plentiful. If you can get a Kubota D1503, you can get the entire rebuild kit (cylinder sleeves, valves, pistons, gaskets, bearings, on and on) for under $600. It's not like you are on a huge time crunch, so you could wait for just the right deal.

  • @jebx99

    This is a pretty old video at this point, but hope you're continuing with some ATF or Marvel mystery to try and free those stuck rings up. Could try and get some oil in the cylinders to get the compression up and hopfully run and free them. Nice skid you have there and sure seems worth fixing. Hope the drives are OK from dragging it - that's sort of a no-no.
    I have a IH4130 gasser that I gambled on - not running. I got it running on the trailer and backed it off. Worked out really well and love having around. Love having around. Found a cheap set of forks and it's so handy.

    If you can get the oil pan off pop those 2 pistons out and hone the cylinders and free up the rings. The rings are most likely stuck in the ring lands. Some times you can heat cycle the pistons with a torch a few times and the rings will free up but I doubt that will work on your engine since it had standing water in it. If they are Iron pistons you could dump Muriatic Acid in on top of the pistons and let it eat the junk up that's causing the rings to stick and flush the block with diesel or Kero because it will seep in past the rings. Don't use Muriatic Acid if it has aluminum pistons because it will eat them.

    #2 and #3 have stuck rings of course it's going to have low compression. Try heat gun in the intake to heat up air maybe it will pop off. If you run the engine there is a slim chance that the rings would get lose. Worth the try before you dump tons of money in to it.

    use 24 volts get the engine spinning faster and if your luck and can get it to fire it might clear the stuck rings don't use either with glow plugs pull glow plugs and soak all cylinder with trans fluid for a week then try again

    Parts are PITA for these continental's. I have an 89 1835c gas with a tm-20 (identical engine just gas). Mine had a "bent valve" which actually meant the head needed work, bad piston, and other odds and ends. Long story short I've been tinkering with it for months, parts are available but the only place I've had luck is on jensales. Not cheap but they can get the parts. I tried pricing out a repower to a Kubota or any other diesel, and by the time you figure your time/money invested it's cheaper to bite the bullet and rebuild the continental. Then sell it really quick while it has a new engine and buy something that doesn't have a continental. Lol. Keep at it!

    All the comments are accurate. I would soak the cylinders with fuel for a week, even wd-40 or blaster will do to loosen the rings a little. Once the come loose, dont use ether just squirt gasoline in the intake. If it fires no more ether just one squirt of gasoline at a time untill it runs then no more gas.

    Get some extra juice on the battery power, I would use some WD40 sprayed into the intake when it is being cranked over you should hear a change in the cranking sound then try some engine start it’s maybe 50/50 if it will play the game key will be getting the engine cranking as fast as you can another trick is to put a hot air gun in the intake for ten minutes. Good luck . Regards Chris Bailey.

    Take some lucas oil stabilizer or some heavy grade oil and put ya a couple squirts down in the cylinder to up compression temperarily(hopefully to get it to bark off) then get a good heat cycle in it. If that doesn't make her bark off then you have other problems such as maybe a valve not sealing, if thats the case you could take the head off and take the valve springs off and lap the valves in to the head (find a video, all valve lapping is basically the same). That would then eliminate the valves as an issue. If that doesn't do it then I would think it would need overhauled or something else is going on.

  • @jurpikag
    @jurpikag ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Put some more mystery oil or 2 stroke in the two low cylinders. The 1st one has enough so if you could get it to just start the other two might losen up to get her going. Otherwise I would look into a Kubota on marketplace..

    Repowering won't be hard. There generally isn't anything special about mating up to the drive pumps with the flywheel. I repowered a thomas skid steer with a Perkins to a v1902 Kubota. There was next to no fab involved except that I had to replace the reefer oil pan because of clearance issues. Repower all the way with something more common like a Cummins or Kubota.

    Dude, not an L! Get a quote to get it rebuilt by a shop (they should first inspect to see if even possible and it's gonna be expensive, let me warn you now) which may include getting the engine block surfaced and very likely getting your cylinders bored and sleeves put in... Etc. See if there is any shop that would do if for a discount for an advertisement opportunity. Could even try ad reach out to oter youtubers n see what you can get. Just make sure they are legit, which means the first thing they'll do is offer to inspect it and see if it"s even possible to rebuild it (you may have missed it).I just subscribed and I'll be hoping to see a sweet new engine. Make sure to get lots of footage of the shop work please 🕶
