I love hearing you say “one more try”, and then trying it about 15-20 more times. You’re stubborn in a great way 😂

I want to THANK YOU. Thank you for saving these old babies from rotting away

It's extremely satisfying to get an old engine runnin especially when people say you you can't

I really like the old dump truck it's definitely worth saving, great job. An old trick I learned years ago with a stuck open valve if you use a long piece of quarter inch rope and fish a bunch of it into the cylinder through the spark plug hole and bar over the motor that rope can bunch up and push the hung valve back up to free it loose, it's an old trick. Cheers from Jacksonville Florida 🌞

155 guys would keep walking by this old boy, but there are a few of you yourself included that have a vison that we can't see. It is incredible how you bring these time machines alive again. You make us better at TurningBolts, thank you.

I worked for an IH Dealership back in the 70s for several years and sold a lot of parts for these old Trucks so I really enjoyed this Will it run episode.

I just have to say that I'm mighty proud of that old starter. It was the real star of the video. It hung in there and cranked as long as you needed it and never complained. Round of applause. I really like how you make those old parts work instead of running to the parts house first thing. I appreciate the way you work. And I really enjoyed riding Dude with you to walmart. It really brought back some fond memories and made me smile.

The sound of that old 6 cyl engine is like sweet music to my ears. Puts joy in my very soul.

You could get a 2 week old Dead Horse to run again...🤣🤣 Another great video look forward to the next one.

Just wanted to take a minute and say thank you, I love the videos sir. I am happy I stumbled across your channel a couple months ago. The knowledge you shared is great. Ever since I was a young kid I've loved tinkering with small engines, or pretty much any with a motor for that matter. It brings joy to my heart to take something most people would view as scrap or trash and make it work again. It's definitely a dying art with all the computer crap. I've been able to pick up little tricks I never thought of to get something working again thanks again God bless.

Growing up in the 60's between my dad, uncle and grandad we were always working on the engine in a truck, tractor or other equipment so this brings back a lot of memories. Kudos for hanging in there 👍

Enjoyed the video! The oil trick to build compression is helpful. One trick I use to get the engine to pop is to heat up the number one spark plug. Sometimes that works. These old vehicles have a mind of their own!

It was fun watching you chug-a-lug through that startup. Anything that old sitting that long you pull off the valve cover first thing, and free the valves. Take the carburetor completely apart to clean and put in working order. The timing is too far advanced, thats why its hard starting and backfiring. The air-fuel mixture screw on the carb sets about 1!/2 to 2 rurns out after its seated. Then Adjust while its running. Timing can be adjusted while its running too. An worn out engine doesn't run at peak performance with the using the factory timing spec. It has to be advanced about 3 to 5 degrees from the factory setting.

My Grandfather used to describe the options on a truck like this as; Armstrong power steering, stomp hard power brakes, and automatic shift it yourself transmission with optional clutch. Yours also has convenience of a hood mounted gas tank and auto door openers.

I’m addicted to watching all your videos and using them as background noise while I work, thanks for making them! 👍

The pucker factor was pretty high when it started rolling back on its own. Gotta be aware of where things will go if things go wrong and stay out of those danger zones, lol. Edit: Probably known advice for everyone here, but if you think some valves even might be stuck on an old engine, taking the valve cover off and giving the valves a few whacks with a soft hammer before you turn it over is a good way to avoid possible contact and a big headache. Also looks like the ol' shade tent took a hit, lol.

Cool looking old truck! I definitely get what you mean there's something about hearing one fire up again!

You're a real master of the English language. Wife is always correcting me for my versions of words. But I really enjoy the videos. Rippin shit apart and makin it work again. A true putzer.

Man the channel has been killing it, I’m very glad to see that. You work hard and deserve everything good that happens.

A little of that Tennessee shine down in the gullet of the beast, and she will roar like a lion!!! Once again well done young man, and thanks for sharing!!!

Man what a rig, loved watching this and thanks for saving the old girl, I commend your dedication to getting her running

I for one love your stubbornness and wanted that engine to start as much if not more than you Chad. I'm pretty sure the other gearheads watching here feel the same way. I can't say enough good things about this channel, Chad had me hooked from the first time I heard him say, "auhhh Yaa" not to mention the man sings like a songbird 🎵🐦.... I'm on pt 2 of the Fire Dragon heat exchanger right now... My goodness what an ambitious build ! Great content creator !

This was awesome, I love that old international. If it ain't squeakin', it ain't intriguin'. great job!

I owned a couple of 52 L110s so this was close to my heart. Those old trucks are the best of any make as long as you don't need parts. They don't rust because the body metal is too thick.

I like your old black Chevy truck. My dad used to own a blue one he said, and he called it Ol' Blue. He used to cut and haul firewood in it alot before i was born, in the 70's. Thanks for the videos and the DIY teaching. 👊✌️

I don't know bout the rest yawl but I give a Thumbs Up and a Like BEFORE I watch the video because you know Chads no punk and you know he's going to bring it ! 🔧

You are an amazing mechanic. Couple weeks working on this engine and you are off!! Driving around. Truly amazing. Wish I had your talent

That was pure artistry watching you get that truck running. Its hard when one or two things are flaky but when spark, fuel delivery, valves and compression are acting up it takes a maestro to get that engine to start. This video also had my interest because there was a 1 ton International, same year, on my cousins ranch. Growing up I dreamed of hauling it off and getting it running. Before I moved back to the area some idiots decided to shoot it up and now there is not much left of it. I was able to live some of my dreams seeing you get this one running. If I ever run across a '50 International, I may have to buy it.

You know if you're not honest how is anyone else to learn. You said in one of your videos your daddy said to be honest, this is why. Yes, we listen to older folk and listen to their wisdom, but they are older and don't care about how silly they may sound. they just don't care. So your honesty is commendable. I really enjoy watching and listening to you.

You can run a chain through a heavy length of pipe and draw the chain tight by backing two vehicles together till you have just enough slack on both ends of chain to make turns. Grandpa taught me

well, that was a good job, I never thought you get that baby running, thank you👍👍👍

Your content is GREAT! Your channel as well as Sleeperdude! Y'all both Tennessee Boys, and you sucked in a Detroit boy, livin the Tennessee Country Dream up yonder in Brighton, Tennessee! Thank you for your honesty, integrity, and terminology you have introduced me to over the last 2 months! I am forever a fan!

I'm really glad he's ok. Thank you for sharing your adventures.

While you had it running … should have taking it back where you got it. You are a great mechanic

That was an awful lot of work. But you didn't give up and it worked. Thank you. I love these old trucks.

That’s Kool‘Running and Driving;Love listening to the old drive train,Really enjoyed the video!Take Care, Your Oregon Friend’☮️

You crawled over the truck to put air in the tire by the fence. I laughed so hard when the air hose slid right back to the other side. I thought thst would be my luck too.

So very well done, that ole pickup at 29.12 sure gets a move on! Well done with the International, look forward to more on that baby even if she's hard to steer. Thanks for great entertainment and take care when working on these vehicles especially when they blow back at you!

Glad to see you stick with and get it running. Persistence pays off!

Great job. I do so love the way that you stick with things, even when they get way problematic. Yeah baby!

You have got the stick with it spirit, slow and steady gets it done. Definately loved every second , I'm now working on my patience . Thanks for the show, Wonderful...Stu in Canada !!!!!

Just wished to say thank you for a wonderful and very enjoyable video. I've just been sat in front of my log burner on a cold winter's afternoon in East Yorkshire, England 🇬🇧 watching your video which brought back happy memories of watching the chap who lived opposite us spending many a happy summers day working on his old trucks. Thank you from across the pond. 🇬🇧

You hit it on the head making something old that hasn't ran in decades is my favorite thing to do love it nice as always

What a lovely truck. Hoping you get it a-going - has a good look to it. Lots of potential. Love the serene blue color of it. Was sharp back in it's day. Thanks for sharing the start of this trucks new lease on life. 😉👍

You're awesome man, I love your videos! I grew up working on classic Japanese motorcycles from the 60's and 70's and watching these videos reminds me of my childhood in a way. Keep on keepin on, I really dig your idea for the build by the way! 👍

Awh MAN I was so excited I saw this video was posted when I got up this morning - had to work to day but I've been waiting all day to see it.. Can't wait she sure is a beauty sitting there just waiting for life to be restored to her.. Thanks so much for filming the stuff you do!

Good going in getting this one running. Seems like your total investment this farm aside from the battery, is purchase price, some brake line, points, some spark plug wire, sealer and sundries. Not bad at all! Loved what you did with the carb - remember doing much the same with an engine (rebuilt) that we hauled out of a yard for my Dad's old 1960 Chev: we made 1 good carb from the 2. Thanks for the great work and interesting content.

I watch a lot of different people on KZfaq working on cars and such-like, out of them all, I’ve come to the conclusion, that, in my humble opinion, you have the best taste in music.

I think that carb popping might be the timing

I love how any part of old tech can be easily repaired

Man that’s a cool old truck… Glad you got er going…

There is a charm in repairing told trucks and automobiles! I´m glad I found your channel.

I like that old truck. On my relatives farm They had a two Internationals . A KB-2 and a KB-5. My aunt and Uncle had an International dealership in Pennsylvania.

I have the same cosmic understanding of mechanical things! I would rather work on a chunk of old iron than anything else. Great satisfaction is had! Keep 'em coming. A loyal subscriber!

Great fun watching that engine being encouraged back to life. Hoping we see some of your new workshop build when it happens.

Watching you start that International up, took me back almost 70 years (yeah I'm that old, 79). I remember those 6 bangers would always fart back when they were cold. My first job as a commercial driver, included driving a 55 International one ton, and I am guessing the engine you have, is out of a later International truck.

Great stuff, can't wait to see what you can achieve with that shop completed.

Had no idea you lived so close. Its a small world! Keep on keepin on with the good content. Love the revivals!

I’m retired Air Force, I remember in the 1970s there being auctions on base of military equipment. We would often see Air Force members driving retired Air Force vehicles on base.

The rear truck bumper as a front bumper!😂😂

This was a Very Fun Video to watch. I watched it from begining to end and enjoyed it all. Perhaps, t brought back old memories of years ago when I myself used to tinker with old vehicles .

Thank you! A really good rescue of ancient vehicle well done.. Do restore it 👍👏👏

When I was a kid, we knew a family where the husband was a paleontologist. He drove an I-H Travell-All (probably late 1960s). It was a beast. Every summer, he'd drive it a coupla thousand miles from his home to his research site on the Burgess Shale. I don't know how many miles it had on it when they replaced it in the mid-1970s with a Jeep Wagoneer. I always felt like we were heading out on safari in that I-H travellall.

Hey brother that’s a sweet old truck hope you restore it up love to see it. Please keep us in the loop Appreciate ya brother

I really enjoy your videos. I get inspiration to get out and work on my own projects by watching you. No matter how frustrating it gets you never give up. Keep ‘em coming!

Glad you got that old history like the cans and flares, we had to use that stuff once upon a time.

I enjoyed that it brought back so many things I'd used do when I was young.

Great awesome video!! I love watching old engines come back life!! 😎👍

I think what you really want is a new truck that looks like an old truck!🤣

An easy 1 man brake bleeder is a bottle with a hose and brake fluid already in it. you keep air from being sucked back in with it only having new fluid to suck on

I use the paper dragging deal to clean the micrometers faces. Metal shop teacher taught us that in 1969

Sounds like some sticky valve's. Awesome job getting it going. 😊

Really enjoy your channel keep up the great work. You had me hooked to your channel ever since that video with all the cows 🐄. Great sense of humor.

Good ole truck ye got there.the more you drive it the better itl run. Good simple durable trucks congratulations on getting it going .Good job man👍👍👍👍👍

Thanks Chad, you both put in a good fight. We like your ideas on where you want to go with it. Central California watching

That’s officially the toughest starter I’ve ever seen or heard tell of😉🤣😎

The things I would do if I hit the lottery.... I love these old trucks. I remember my granddad driving em for his business when I was a kid (much like you). My dream has been to get my hands on some oldies and fix them up. So much fun.

That is the key starter toggle switch under the hood and the terminal with connector is rust steel. So clean the rust out that the battery connection is contact touching good then hook up to the electric motor that is motor starter. Then the ignition switch goes thru the fire and finally then goes thru the dashboard. Thanks.

I thought for sure that the motors was going to need to be torn down... You have way more patience than I do... Keep on, keeping on...!! Cheers...!! Ken

I'm watching this beautiful old iron come back to life while eating homemade potato chips and drinking sweet tea. Aaayeee!

Makes me apreciate the mid 70s 80s stuff. Not so much the 2010s and up computer stuff . Nice old body style on that truck,

Excellent demonstration of automotive knowledge !

Awesome as always.Thanks for sharing and taking us along

Man I love “dude”!!

I just realized it has a square body Chevy step bumper on the front. What a cool old truck. Primitive to say the least. Love your videos.

I also love the front ( REAR.)....bumper ........💯💯

Another great video. Persistency pays off. The test-drive was awesome with the odd flame coming out of the carbi and the fuel tank falling off at the end. New subscriber from New Zealand.

Love them old truck they built America.

FINALLY, someone uses Evaporust to fix somethin!! I use that stuff all the time and every restore video I see is more like a replace video. Any hoo good on yah!!

Man that engine runs GOOD. Just had to get it started and free off that stuck valve, it cleared its throat nicely. Bit weak for a truck like that, but I could see it being a nice swap into something else from the era that needs an engine.

I beginning to think you'll tackle just about anything on wheels! Really enjoyed this one!

I have spent the entire day binge watching your videos. And i see absolutely nothing wrong with it.:)

As long as the man is okay that's all that matters, I have been there, trust me.

Hi Chad, hope your neighbour is ok now. The truck would look awesome lowered and a big block v8 in her...... Keep up the old rusty gold... have a great weekend..

The wonders of youtube, all the way from england you can take a trip with a buddy to the store 😄 thanks for taking us along, i couldnt believe that truck rolled out of there that easily 😳 i guess he was standing a bit too close but who would of expected it to roll like that after all that time, great video as always keep on wrenchin 👍🏾

Thank you for the wonderful videos. I learn so much from them and well it's just fun watching them too 👍.

I love how you deal with things that aren't working the way they're supposed to! The exact same way I do! A big ole hamma can do wonders for the psyche👍😊😀😁

That was one Dangerous Passage Chad!

I understand about wanting a shop I too have worked on vehicles in a gravel driveway in the grass having to deal with fire ants and lost bolts and nuts. Makes appreciate the concrete floor in my garage. Enjoy your down home approach to auto repair

Never been so happy to hear a truck start up.
