Hello sir I have some D4 7U parts in good condition. Would you be interested in purchasing them ? Both sprockets and front idelers.

Possibly. Depends where you're located and what you're asking. Are they spoked idlers or solid?

Hello Kyle, I just watched an earlier episode on your channel of you removing the rear drive sprockets from the final drive housings, too bad that one of them failed. I haven't been a regular on your channel due to busy life but am keen to follow your projects. I was directed to your channel by Squatch, it's interesting to watch a different approach to restoration of these old workhorses. Thanks so much for your efforts, looking forward to seeing your next episode. I'm from Australia and enjoy the peak which people like yourself and Squatch provide into a part of your lifestyles and your passions for machinery. Colin

Hello Kyle, I've only recently found your channel thanks to Squatch253's recommendations, I like your style of presentation and your video content. I have a question about the Farmall MD, it seems to have an ignition system for a petrol motor on the RH side and diesel injection on the LH side. Can you tell me what I'm seeing there.? Thanks from Colin in Australia
@kylechrist
@kylechrist Ай бұрын
Thanks Colin, as far your question, these are a gasoline start diesel engine. How these work is there is a 3rd valve in the head that opens when starting on gasoline (petrol) that lowers the compression and exposes the spark plug to the combustion chamber. Once the engine is running on gasoline and warm, a lever is flipped that closes the 3rd valve which raises the compression and switches from gasoline to diesel. In order to shut it down, the engine is switched back to gasoline for cooling down and then shut off. Hopefully this helps

I sold auto parts for about 15 years. GOOD LUCK in this town, finding ANY solid core wire, bulk or otherwise, and GOOD LUCK finding spark plug terminals and boots "in stock." NAPA, once the apex example of auto parts, is a joke here locally.

Do you think that you’ll add a dampener on your exhaust stack at the top, to kind of slow the burn so to speak, like on a spring day and you don’t need so much heat or you wanna make the wood last through the night?
@kylechrist
@kylechrist Ай бұрын
While a damper is a future option, the reason I don't use one now is so I don't pull too much heat and send cold smoke up the chimney. Obviously I need heat to rise to create a draft but it also cuts down on creosote buildup. Thanks for watching!
