W D 40 means water displacement it's not a lubercant

When you start it you don't need to get the handle out the moment you throw the decompressor, you can crank it through as many compressions as you can manage (as long as the ratchet in your handle is not stuck)

Didn't see you activate the cold start, at the pump, move the throttle linkage out, watch it spring back to excess fuel position.

Thanks for the advice, I know nothing about these machines, didn’t even know there was a cold start!

Fantastic progress I would try to remove the studs and give the injector a twist and hopefully break the seal

Thanks again for the comment I’m glad you liked the video. Good idea, it may not have been removed in its lifetime so I’m expecting it to take some persuasion 😬

Young fella won't you consider the rings might be where the smoke may be from? Run it first and heat up the engine block some by blocking of the cooling fan inlet see if the oil rings will reseat!

Didn’t even think about that! Thanks for the tip

if some one has used the decompression lever to stop it the exughst valve will be coked up to stop its the lever below the pump

it could do with an injector overhaul

Be careful with easy starting when I use it on my dumper it often runs backwards

@RiptonFarm Жыл бұрын

Thanks for the warning! Hopefully I won’t have to use it once I get that dodgy injector sorted

What was the main thing them was mostly used for

@dutchgray86 Жыл бұрын

Hauling dirt, stone, concrete on building sites.

Use the cold start lever you will never need easy start ever again

@@RiptonFarm Use to use small dumpers like this in the shipyard I worked in back in the early 80's. They were great for moving tools, oxy cylinders, props, wedges and keel blocks around... the yard had around 10 of them. Every Friday, one would be sent out on the fish and chip run.
