Congratulations Chris with the new born calf at home and the proposed new garage and workshop. Well done, your home is looking good, a little bit at a time. Love your channel and Thankyou for letting us into your life at home, very much appreciated and admired. Cheers from Australia.

Chris we EXPECT to see live coverage of the hurricane tonight. Use that bright ass light on your other machine. Get ya a yeller banana rain suit and you will be weather channel worthy! Stay safe!

My uncle who was a diesel mechanic for more than twenty years. Always said automatic transmission fluid makes the best injector cleaner. Because it has detergents in it and it lubricates. God bless

Love your positive attitude, "it is what it is" and "nothing we can do about it". Keep it up.

Love always to watch your jobs! Best regards from Germany

'Scoop, Load, Dump'.... (wishing you had a self-loading pan scraper) ..Your Volvo digger and that Volvo off-road dumper is just the best … great eqpt.. could watch this all day...….. Chris, UR a 'Real Smooth Operator'.....

Hey Chris, put a gallon of gas in your fuel tank with it being full of Diesel and that will also clean your injectors better than anything that they have on the shelf and it will not hurt it

You guys do a awesome clean work.

@ Chris, perhaps there are ash debris in the haul trucks lungs from the cleanup the other day? Ash/concrete and drywall dust will get thru any filter:(

It's a fuel problem so how does ash have any way of contaminating that? Likely it's just dirty fuel system (or excess water) and new filters/draining the water separator will fix it.

@@toad3048 Symptoms are much different - dirty air filter means all cylinders low on power, which is not what was said to be the problem - but perhaps you're hard of hearing? On the other hand, clogged/leaky injector only affects one cylinder - but since he said the problem was getting better, it seems like dirty fuel is the culprit and draining the water separator and replacing fuel filters seems the most likely culprit. Engine wont get better with a clogged air filter - it only gets worse until it's changed/cleaned, so symptoms point to a fuel issue.

Stay safe over the next couple days sir. Try and stay dry. Good luck with that one.

God I hope the farm is safe during the storm ⛈ ❤️

Hey Chris, hope you guys made it thru tonight ok. Awful soggy here n Raleigh at midnight..

Ironic you're having injector problems after loading all those ashes! Think perhaps those times you left it running while loading - it inhaled a bit too much? Good luck with the storm. Looks like that storm is being pretty stubborn over thatta way!

Air doesnt affect an injector. Two totally seperate systems

Seafoam it works really well

In the UK we have weight control in the truck cab to calibrate the same load every time, also the boards you have on the sides are called greedy boards. Stops the ministry from nabbing us..

Today looked like a 'mountain dew' zoom zoo day!

I knew that haul truck was sick when you were moving that ash.

Running rough - maybe a blocked air filter from all the ash the other day?!

Hey Chris where are you taken all the topsoil??? Are you filling in the old pond with it?? Love all your content!!!

Thanks for the video mate ,$1000 dollars for one injector is criminal when you see all they are ,but from bitter experience Volvo marine can be the pirates of the nautical maintenance world ,I think Volvo marine operate under the assumption that maintenance becomes expensive to a point ,that they hope you upgrade your engines ,but in fairness they generally make a very good product.

hope the storm does not hit you too hard chris stay safe

Did you check the air filters after the ash?

Injector? Again? Do you maybe have contaminate oil/petrol with dirt/litter,...?

Depending on which way the wind comes from do you think there will be any topsoil left after the hurricane passes over, it being so light and fluffy n all. Enjoyed the video bro.

Pull the injectors and get them cleaned and flow checked for about 25 bux each. There is at least one shop near you that has an ASNI injector machine.

Love all these mechanics saying the ash is what caused the injector to fail lol

Nice!!!!

I'll say this as a business owner. Between doing bids and keeping things going business wise uncle John seems like hes game to go.

I am surprised it you don't have a scraper, it probably would be much faster , also I wish you had an external mike so it would be in front of you ,so you would be more understandable !

Does the offroad truck need an overhaul? I know very little about such equipment. But it sure does seem to get the job done.

Replace all 6 it will save you long term

Grab yourself a BFH and give it a few good smacks lol.

The truck breath a little to much ash?

Damn truck driver’s lol

truck drivers.... If I've learned anything since CDL school, truck drivers have an inflated sense of their IQ and abilities. Many can only do the one thing and that is drive, they don't think, they don't ask questions, they don't pay attention to whats going on around them... They are the all knowing all seeing belligerent fools that keep the rest of us frustrated all day. Now, many are owner operators most of these guys are pretty ok, its the steering wheel holder "outlaw trucker/supertrucker" type that get on my nerves

Chris is perhaps 200 miles from the Outer Banks, closer to Wilmington. Not a lot of roads out here so my one option from Asheboro to OBX is route 64. NC's shoreline is very weird as is the length of the State. Going NE to SW, Moyock NC to Cherokee NC is 500 miles due to the shape of NC. One would think the ocean would be dead East from Nags Head but it is almost NE so the sun rises where one would perceive as SE.
