DeHaviland Chipmunk Flight!
I have been craving a flight in a DeHaviland Chipmunk for quite some time, and the Windsor museum folks were in Sarnia with a Harvard and the RCAF Chippy, so as soon as we got in the gate I signed up. The flight was about 15-20 minutes or so, and I was offered the controls as soon as we were in the air after some good conversation about aviation from my pilot (and my only prior experience at the controls of a Cessna 150 in calm air..) . It was turbulent today, throwing us about a bit, and I took the stick. A few good throws from the wind got me very well acquainted with the reputation that the DH Chipmunk has for great and fun handling! I loved the controls of this old plane. When the wind pitched us up and left, it was just instinct to correct down and right. I am glad now that I got to fly in turbulent air, and really get a feel for active flying. I was on a course near Lake Huron and followed up with a pass just south of the bridges, over chemical valley, then followed instruction for our route after that to get us lined back up for our approach. 120 MPH at 1800'. I am looking forward to some more stick time in the future. What fun! Click this link for specs!

An Easy Way To Resurface Worn Rocker Arms

I came up with this easy way to resurface worn valve rocker arms. I had a flat bar of steel that was very straight, I polished the end 4" on the old surface grinder, clamped it to the bench grinder, and it worked out very well! Any flat, smooth bar will work, as long as it is square to the stone. It is easier when carefully using both hands to steady it, instead of one hand making the video.. h...

My Son Getting Some Practice running The White.
In high school my buddy’s older brother had a red Scout. After a few off road shenanigans I fell in love with that thing. Found a Scout for $900 a few months later. Nothing wrong with it, 4wd still worked and it had the 345 in it. Never left me stranded, even after I screwed the transfer case. Many, many hours of fun and the top came off fairly easily. God that thing was tuff!!!
Nice!!
That’s super cool!! I need it!!
Imagine what it would've done with a good exhaust system on it. REVERSION.
like what?

@@donvoll2580 hi Don! Hope you are doing well!
I need to mount new generator and regulator, but don’t know the proper wiring. So I’m stuck and will try my best, hoping not to burn circuits.
@@pacoguerilla3097 F on regulator to F on generator, GEN on regulator to A on generator, BAT on regulator to ammeter or volt meter. L on regulator if there is not always there, or not always used. That is a load circuit that goes back to the light switch. Not necessary.

We had a 1066 until 1992.
Impressive!

Have you used it to cut keyways or splines?
@@mikeandcolleenk9831 i cut a 1/8" keyway in 1/2" round stock recently but it wandered a bit for some reason. It may have been the tool, or too much down feed. It's tricky. I had better luck with the little Atlas horizontal mill.
@@FarmallDoctor mills are easier. Specialty items which take time work on a shaper. Still nice looking equipment. Wish i could find a fixer lathe cheap.
I like that engine stand mate !
I am currently working on a 656 D282 and got the head redone with all new valves/springs/etc, my issue is I started with piston 1 at TDC then adjusted 1,2,3,5,7,9 as the box says. THEN I turned the engine 360 degrees to do 4,6,8,10,11,12 but something doesn’t seem right. It seems like they are way off thread wish on the rocker assembly compared to the first group. Does that make sense?
@@kentonward330 are you sure it was #1 TDC? That you started at? #6 should have been rocking at that point.
@@FarmallDoctor I had the head off the tractor and had piston 1 all the way up before putting new gasket down and head.
@@kentonward330 1 and 6 move in the same position, you were likely on #6 TDC. Try my method this time, then you can check again with the factory method if you like. Either way is acceptable.
@@FarmallDoctor even though I had #1 cylinder at the top of its stroke when putting the head on? Also #1 valve is the intake right, then #2 is the exhaust? And so on… #3 is intake, #4 exhaust?
@@kentonward330 yes. 1 and 6 are both at the top at the same time. As are 2 and 5 together, 3 and 4 together. Being 4 stroke, you could have been set for 1 or 6. It just depends where the cam is.
Brigden? Like south east of Sarnia Brigden?
Yes!

I work for Koyo, if you gotta do that it’s a shitty bearing.
Hi! It has always been suggested by the manufacturer to heat certain bearings. They used to use a small oven, but this works better.
I didn’t know any of this. We never had an 86 tho
Sweet eight o six
Excellent!! To the point. Accurate info. No fake rural accent while some bubba tries to figure out what he's doing. We need more like you!
Thanks! I like to help out and share what I learned from the old boys that taught me, and tricks that I have come up with.
It would be nice to see som ething other than the dudes back!
I purchased a 6 V voltage regulator. I can’t seem to find a positive ground one. Does it matter
It should be pos ground. I've never seen a 6V neg ground system in North America
I set my tank on a way scale and weighed it empty then again with 4 quarts oil. I watched the scale go down as the oil pushed into the engine. I shut it off before it got down close to the empty weight
Would this work on a Perkins 4-108?
As long as you have the large plug in the intake manifold, it should work well.
Thank you for this.
Nothing sounds like a 2 stroke Detroit with that blower whine! I went to school on the 2 strokes back in the 80's and can't remember the specs, but isn't that blower about 2:1 overdriven? If so at high idle (about 2200rpms) the blower will be turning about 4400rpms. Correct? The Detroit's were a fascinating design. People that are not familiar with the Detroit design don't understand that it won't run without the blower, which is nothing more than an positive displacement air pump that fills a plenum around the pistons with air that enters the cylinder liners as the pistons travel down on the power stroke and the intake ports open. As the pistons go back up the ports close and you have the compression and power stroke. Like true 2 strokes they fire ever 360 degrees of crank revolution versus every 720 degrees for 4 strokes. This also inherently make them a dirty engine and somewhat smokey. There are 4 valves per cylinder, but they are all exhaust valves, so Detroit's don't need intake valves. The fuel injectors on a Detroit are true injector, and not just a nozzle like on a regular diesel with an injection pump. The injectors are cam driven by rocker-arms centered between the 4 valves. Great engines for turning diesel fuel into noise and smoke!
The simplicity and durability are what drew me to them in the first place! Get fuel anywhere near them, and they will run, and perform! New, or worn out, they will get the job done.
Excellent description and display buddy👍
But what does it say? “The word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart” (that is, the word of faith which we preach): 9 that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Yeshua ישוע (Jesus) and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. 10 For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. 11 For the Scripture says, “Whoever believes on Him will not be put to shame.” 12 For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek, for the same Lord over all is rich to all who call upon Him. 13 For “whoever calls on the name of the YHVH יהוה (LORD) shall be saved.” Romans 10:1-13
Is this motor different than 10-20 I can hear rpm high
It's the little 113 engine the same as an F-12
G day FD What makes them chugg & smoke when working. Smoke is in firebox! Thx
Engine steam exhaust blasts up the stack, creating draft which pulls more air through the fire...
G day R u in wrong country? Boy big unit. What does high & low pressure mean? 80 rpm Lawn mower motors would never burn or not as many if they run slowerThx
Hi Don! Ohio is a wonderful state to explore.. lots of great history! High and low pressure cylinders mean that it is a compound, or double expansion engine. High pressure steam goes to the smaller, high pressure cylinder, and the exhaust steam from that cylinder, at lower pressure goes to a larger cylinder. you get more efficiency and more work out of the steam. Large ship engines were typically triple or quadruple expansion!
@@FarmallDoctor Wow 3-4 turbos
That there's my dream tractor. Excellent job Wendel.
Hi, I'm on with this set up on my ford 4000 rewire, does the wire to the heat coil require a relay like a glow plug? Any information from the heat on , on the ignition switch, forwards would be greatly appreciated.
No, a relay is not required. Power goes from a large spade terminal on the key switch directly to the heater. If your tractor didn't originally have it, a simple heavy duty push button switch will do.
I've wanted a 1200 series pickup with a 345, 4 speed manual combo since about 2013!!!
I'm sorry but you definitely are not a mechanic. This is not how you check any generator.
LOL... Show us your method then.
1486 is the best tractor made
Best motor ever made. I ran one with a piston broke in half for over a year maybe 10,000 miles or more. The entire skirt was broken off on one side.. the pin was only holding on one side.. I pulled the intake and head and oil pan and put a used piston and rings in and had it running in 5 hours. Drove it for another decade. Only needed three wrenches. 7/16" 1/2" and 9/16". That my friend is good war time engineering a person can appreciate.
In following this man's advice there is one big caveat regarding grounding the field (F) terminal of the generator. This should only be done on generators that use an externally grounded field (also known as an A-circuit field). There is also a B-circuit field, which is an _internally_ grounded field. In this configuration the connection to the F terminal must go to the hot (ungrounded) side of the battery, whether it's positive or negative, to get full output or to check the generator slowdown when motoring it. Ford used the B-circuit configuration almost universally in its vehicles which were equipped with generators. This would likely also be the case with its tractors. So it behoves anyone doing these tests to know what configuration your particular charging system uses for its field circuit.
Both good tractors but john deere is simply the best period the end
Do I leave the battery hooked up and just run wire test wire or do I unhook battery? Positive ground 12 volt system
Yes, i leave the battery hooked up.. Just remove the wiring harness from the regulator and generator, and use the test wire.
Great idea! Thanks for posting
I don’t think the thermostart is working on my 1998 MF231. It has the Perkins AD3.152 engine. Does it have an inline fuse?
Not usually. Key switch could be an issue. But check it first. Some required a counter clockwise turn, some were to the first detent clockwise.
@@FarmallDoctor I’m thinking it’s either the thermostart coil itself is bad or the fuel line going to the thermostart is stopped up.
@@FarmallDoctorI replaced the ignition switch today with a new one and also a new thermostart plug and I’m still not sure if it’s working. It’s not cold here so I’m not sure if I should see smoke or not. The fuel pipe going to the thermostart plug is not clogged. Any way to tell if the system is working right? I wish it was cold here in Louisiana so I could easily see if it’s working correctly. Thanks!
@@travisricks3436 you won't see any smoke anywhere. The only way to see it would be to remove the intake hose between the air cleaner and manifold.
@@FarmallDoctornew key switch, new thermostart plug, fuel supply pipe isn’t stopped up, thermostart still not working. Any ideas?
Good day Farmal The other day watch video, fellow took rag pour gas on it & held over intake Turn over tractor & start ed.. I don't know if that is better. Thanks
I have heard of that working on some engines! Surely not as convenient as this system, but great to keep in mind for the certain instances that an engine need a bit of help.
@@FarmallDoctor When dad was getting retirement house brick, JD 4020, cold morning They took rag pour diesel on & lit it. Same idea It did start Ths
I’m about to dive into this type of system on a Same Explorer II and before I start probing and testing I’d like to know what I’m dealing with. Mainly I was wondering how fuel is supplied to it. Fuel for the engine is drawn out the top of the tank so it’s not gravity fed. I see what looks to be a solenoid on the fuel line right before the heater valve but I’m thinking it may be a tiny pump. Have you ever ran into one like that? Thanks for your help
Yes, those small electric fuel pumps are very common. They are usually in stock at auto parts suppliers.
I have installed a couple of these and they work great my issue has been identifying the thread on the glow plug itself. I can't figure out for the life of me what exactly it is.
7/8" UNF
@@FarmallDoctor Thank you.
I'm sorry but I wish you would do a better job explaining the jumper connections you did to test the generator. The tractor is positive ground which gives me an instant head ache. I just don't fully understand what you are doing. Otherwise you do an excellent job of keeping to the point. So many just ramble on with meaningless garble.
"battery positive" Is a general term that we use to identify the "hot" side of the circuit, no matter whether the system is negative or positive ground. Ground is always referred to as ground in both. "Battery Positive" jumped to the A terminal makes the generator "motor" no matter if it is positive or negative ground. If you were to ground that A terminal, nothing would happen.
