Yeah! Tractor repair! Nice starter! Hi guys! I am in the Hospital 😒ugh , fell down stairs Sat 2am …broke pelvis and tailbone! Was knocked unconscious and my fiancée called 911. So happy to see you guys got out a video to take my mind off the pain! Took a few steps with walker today it is difficult to put any weight on left leg.
Wish my Dad was alive he could tell you about tractor repair! Yah! Good Luck! 😞 Aww. Yeah!🙏🏻🙏🏻Blessings, Laura
Oh.....NO!!!! We are so sad to hear that. 😢 please please please take it easy. Couple extra videos this week.....dropping another tomorrow......hope it brings ya a 😃
@@OffgridwithJayandJen aww thank you so… much guys you are the best! You both make me laugh 😹!Cant wait to see the new video! You guys stay safe! 🙏🏻🙏🏻Blessings, Laura
Always nice to help a neighbor in need!
Help and be helped......yes
I’m glad I could be your motivation for finally replacing that! 😂 Now if I could only get some dirt so I could put it to use.
Ha...you know I would have just kept using the screw driver for another year.
So glad to hear her roar back to life. Well done. Looking forward to some milling. Stay safe my friend.
Love your trial and error approach, the only way to learn. Great video Jay.
Thanks my friend 😀
Works like a champ! Cheers bud
I'm glad you can fix your tractor, like your woot woot t-shirt 😁
Thanks Irene......I'm happy too. Woot woot
Well done! I always have trouble starting a difficult project, but it feels great when I’m done.
It sure does......😊
First time checking you out, new subscriber, great video! I've got a 4243MF that's having starting issues, you've given me the confidence I needed to attempt this fix! Hopefully it's as easy as you made it look!
Very cool Joel.....ya starters are fairly simple especially when you can easily get to them lime this one. Few bolts and a couple wires and you're good to go. Just make sure it's not something silly like a bad battery or battery connection first.....and if you do tackle the starter are sure you unhook the battery first. Thanks for joining us.
Great music selection. I use Shazam to find the song titles. Then, I add them to my music library. So, I guess you are true influencers 👍. Greetings from Alabama! It’s hot here. Take care if you are working in the heat up there.
So cool, I always mean to add the music information in the description box but i get side tracked with so many other tasks I forget 😩
Love the music on your videos my friends, especially the suspenseful build up music on the second try to start the tractor 🚜. You are becoming pros at this TH-cam video stuff. Take care, see you soon.
Thanks buddy
Yep..."Actuate" is a word and used appropriately too! Couldn't stop grinning when the engine turned over! Nice job.
Thanks Patricia......have not read many books or worked on my vocabulary lately.....like in 20 years, lol
@@OffgridwithJayandJen
My reading is limited to TH-cam comments! ROTF LMAO 🤣
@@patricialora5692 same, lol
It has been a while, but its great to get that of the to do list. Yes it was a ling time coming but we are happy to see that your getting it done in good weather. It will pay off itself in value. It was definitely more work than we would of thought. Thank you for sharing this with us, have fun. Woot woot🤣
Satisfying to get a bunch of small projects done before the big ones begin.....woot woot guys
I've done that a time or two on the farm in Barry county. At least it's accessible. Houston, We have Ignition!!!
For sure.....about as easy as it gets. Didn't even have to jackpot up and put it on jack stands to crawl underneath

Gotta be a great feeling, job well done!
Thanks my friend
It's nice to check a project off the todo list !
Yes yes.....got a lot done this week. Might even have some extra time to work on the automatic solar panel wiper system, ha ha
@@OffgridwithJayandJen LOL, it will be a game changer !
Great job!!
That packing material looks like a possible hat for Jen!
It was the most fancy packing material I have ever seen. Lol
Had a green one do that, broke the nose cone, found one of the teeth on the flywheel ring gear broke and got stuck in the one next to it. Figured the starter drive tried to roll over it and broke the starter. Did you check the ring gear ? Green ones you can replace just that, not the whole flywheel.
Wow, honestly Bill the starter teeth looked fine and the small amount of the flywheel I could see in the whole looked ok as well, So that is as far as I went. I'm sure anything other than simple repairs like this would be outside my wheelhouse and tool capabilities. lets hope for the best....thanks for sharing your knowledge on the green tractors, LOL
I hope to God you got ALL the pieces out from that broken starter!
Ya me too.....seems there is only one tiny piece missing, nothing large enough to cause serious issues I believe. I surely don't have the expertise or resources to split this old tractor, lol
Good job Jay!!
Thanks Linda 😊
Hot Damn … nice job Jay! Jen what a man you have!
😊😊😊 awe thanks Liz
You are so smart !
Ha....just enough to get by, lol
Great job!
Thanks Lura
Awesome sauce it works. Love your videos 🤩
Ha......love it. Thank you for being here my friend
Great channel. “Alright guys…”
Thanks Mike......are you ready for bedroom building now? Lol
HANG ON TO THE OLD PARTS
Oh ya......never throw anything away right? Someday it might bail me out
Hooray, getting the tractor going.
Oh ya
With the cone broke it puts too much stress on the shaft and it'll bind, if you had a tig welder id weld it back on...
that makes sense.....I am not a welder....wish I was. I'll keep the old one around and see if anything ever becomes of use on it, LOL. thanks for the info SVG
@@OffgridwithJayandJen it depends if the new one is the same or not, but id bet you could get the old one repaired and keep it as a spare
So awesome that you can fix it yourself.👍 Yeah 👍. You did it 😜.
Wohoo.....and a woot woot
Great repair J !!! Keep on keeping on !!
Thanks buddy.....see ya soon
Yay it works
Almost worthy of a Woot Woot eh?
Yup
Yay! Edit: Yay I knew you could do it! go Jay!
Ha.....thanks my friend. Knowing you believe in me keeps me trucking 😀
Jack of all trades!
Gotta do what ya gotta do
Sorry sir about my spelling mistake I just woke up Here in Canada, it's so damn hot here.
I just want to say “thank you” for the sticker I love it.👍
So awesome.....glad you like it. Did you order one or get it from our most favorite establishment? 😊
@@OffgridwithJayandJen you guys send it to me. I started watching your channel since you and your wife start laying your foundation of your cabin.
@@harveyross7259 thanks buddy for all the support. 😊
@@OffgridwithJayandJen you welcome and stay safe to both of you 👍
What does woot woot mean?
Kind of a term of excitement I guess.....celebrate woot woot
Just started the video😂 Jason says why don’t we show the 8N some love?
Ha......lots of other projects my friends. I do love that old girl. All the logs I currently have to mill are way too much for her, I'll get her rolling just for you guys this week, lol
I say YAY!!!
He is kidding! Lol
My yay turned into a nay 😂 but way to get her up & going!!
@@OffgridwithJayandJen We really are just giving you crap😂 I totally get the so many other projects thing. Heck our 8N is still sitting in Nebraska…..
@@JLGWoodscapes I know it is all in good fun......just poking back. Here I am complaining of being busy.....all while you running 26.2.....so cool.
@@OffgridwithJayandJen Haha! Thanks!! Sometimes ya worry how you come off in text.
We are at the Shabin’ still & really no projects this trip other than running 26 miles😂 & enjoying family!! First trip since 2020 with no major project…..
Keep up the good work up there!! Glad we got to catch up on a couple videos tonight. Y’all are awesome & fun to watch!

Jay - Master Mechanic 🙌 Great work buddy. Well impressive. You deserve bengiets now. I say JENNY our hero could sure use a reward... just sayin' like... 😌
Ha.....truth. I fixed the tractor....bengniets......mowed the lawn....Bengniets........got out of bed....Bengniets...oh ya
@@OffgridwithJayandJen dude you're on to something here... 🤔
Jay I like watching you work on the cabin however you give to much information about what you are doing
This is just a fun little extra video my friend. Some like to learn and know what's going on other than the cabin. . Appreciate your tips though.
Bravo.
😉😀😀
did you find the littel bit of old starder i see missing hope you not leave in as it wiil brack the fli weel
Ya that little chunk was tiny.....so hoping it is too small to cause issues. Splitting the tractor is the only way I think to get it out.
Remove inspection cover on bottom of bellhousing clutch cover,below starter. Broken bit maybe there. Fish around with small magnet if cast iron.
No find,no worries. Tractor on.
Yah
Good job 😂😂
Thanks Jackie

My dad taught me something when I was just a young teenager working in the woods and it is simple. He said that you can piddle around and just make half hearted attempts to do something, get tired of it and quit or you can grab it by the horns an just do it. Pondering and wasting time thinking of other maybe's will eat time you could enjoy doing something you do like doing. It shows just on that siding that if you had cleaned one side and been consistent, it would look so much better. Sure its on it now but where is the pride level? Just curious... I am quite self critical now that I am in my seventies but I did things the same damn way your doing just to have to do it over again later and then cuss someone else for not making me do it right. You have a great little mill. I do see trees everywhere there so its no shortage of millable wood. I think many use these mills with a lot of fear of maybe it hurting us or it getting so hard to do if we move that log to a better position to mill it. Common sense will get you a lot further than just half hearted attempts... I am doing this cause you have a great potential there to make a really nice place. And if someone gives us a push to make ourselves do better, we tend to make it a habit and we just over time look back at how much more is done and done for good. If I hurt your feelings, it is not the intended. I no longer walk because after surgerys, I never just tolerated high levels of pain and walked some every day... its way too late as all my muscle mass has atrophied and I have very little range of motion... but that pain is so high that even my doctor winces in pain as he sees me try to get around... I keep hopping to go to sleep an just never wake up.. what a great goal for someone who has done just about anything that you name in logging or mechanicing on equipment of age. I have not walked since 2005 when I caught a man who fell from his roof. It broke my neck in four places an shattered my lumbar system to a point of slivers of what should be.. they wired an used screws, plastic and different forms to hold stuff together but those nerves get in the way, they burn them off an they just heal back in weeks. I have refused to use drugs and this is the payback for it. I could get just about anything I can or could ask for as they keep suggesting that this or that would help with pain that puts me in short term comas.
I do have thin skin Morgan, and sometimes it hurts to read comments here about what I'm sharing and how I'm doing it.....but in regards to my quality of work I will only say this. I have no one to teach me, I learn best by action. There is the option of sitting around until can do things at an expert level....or I can go, live, accomplish, and learn.
To add to this.....there is this stigma that people live with, that everything has to be perfect.....or done a specific way....all while everyone does things differently and all think they have done it the best or correct way. The Over complicating of most things is what keeps most idle until it is too late to DO what they always dreamed of.
It is hard for me reading this to narrow down exactly where or what it is you wish or think I'm doing so poorly.....since your comment is here on a simple video of me fixing my tractor and you mention no specifics to what you think I'm doing unwell. Feel free to offer constructive criticism but help me by being blunt. If you are referring to my size or health.....then that is something I have struggled with since a young boy. This journey is something I hope will continue to help me with as we transition more and more to this lifestyle. I wish you the best my friend amd hope you find your peace, for I can not imagine being in such a situation.
If you are simply referring to the siding, you have just missed the reason for its current state. It has been brought up in a few videos of why it is not finished.
@@OffgridwithJayandJen Well said. It brought to my attention that my father, a very large and powerful man from old country germany was mean and very cruel to me, demanded perfection so my first impulse is to think like I was taught at a young age. I can appreciate your health dilemma as I too can smell a calorie and gain weight. Its so damn hard to watch others eat and I am gumming a celery stick as my teeth are gone from a bullet taking my jaw bone out in vietnam. I nearly starved to death learning a new way to eat with a plastic face. I have not kissed a girl since I went into the service fifty five years ago. Sure they will kiss you but it feels like a sympathy kiss and try to figure that out... I never knew that when I was seventeen, and kissed my young as well wife goodby that was the last one. I do get overwhelmingly mean at times... I took that out on you and am sorry
@@morgansword no need for apologies my friend. I truly appreciate your words and efforts to share your knowledge of what you have learned and found helpful through your years. I have no harse feelings....I just enjoy my life to the fullest and avoiding things in which get in my way. I never claim to be an expert or aim to teach anyone anything....I'm just showing others that if this dummy can do it.....so can they.
Hearing your stories of your hard times makes me, even more, to live life to its fullest. I'm sorry you have been dealt a rough hand in life, and have had many losses, but I hope you have blessings you are able to enjoy still.....maybe some of my simple light hearted moments here on my videos can be part of that. Best wishes my friend.
