Sitting 20+ years, Will this MASSIVE Wheel Loader Run and Drive home?!?! (Cummins Power!)

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

Got Called to come check out this wheel loader, upon arrival I quickly realized she had been parked there quite some time and was much bigger than any machine I need however the price is right so if I can get it running and driving Ill buy it with the hopes of making a couple bucks!

    Wow this brings back memories, I was a mechanic for a Clark Michigan dealer for 42 years, I retired in July 2018. Volvo Construction Equipment bought into the then Clark-Euclid merger in 1987 and became VME for about 7 years and Volvo eventually killed off both Clark and Euclid and now it's just Volvo. I worked on a lot of Michigan loaders in the past, they were pretty good "simple by today's standards" machines that did what they were designed to do. I worked in our engine shop in the 80s and rebuilt a few of those 505 and 555 Cummins engines.

    I have that same year wheel loader. Under the counter weight on the back end you will see an air tank that controls the air parking brake and and parking brake pressure tank which is behind the shaft under the cab. Start the engine and open the bleed valve. Rev the engine up a bit and bleed the air tank of all water and then close the tank and let it build up pressure. If that doesn’t work than use a portable air tank and connect it to the tank and the parking brake will disengage. The two brake pedals are prone to leaking when fully depressed and the compressor will fill with water quickly if not oiled regularly.

    Clueless about the real engineering involved, there's always some uneducated Monday morning quarterhack whining about how the "engineer" screwed up on some insignificant detail like filter location on a 40 year old piece of equipment. Even though there's a thing called competition where each manufacturer is trying to provide the best piece of equipment at the lowest possible price,... yes they're all out to get the operators and mechanics because there's a big conspiracy to keep them from working on the equipment themselves. Same with computers and TV's and satelites,... the manufacturers don't want the purchasers to work on them themselves,.. so they make them smaller and smaller each year.

    @@kruleworld I didn't call it a conspiracy, quite the opposite. Or at least in a collusive way. Competition (and government) drives product evolution. A. Regardless of what John Deere or any other manufacturer says, you can't be put in jail for working on your own equipment, but if you do and you screw it up while it's under warranty (and why would you want to work on it if it's under warranty,..miss out on free repair???) you'll void the warranty. They don't want to be responsible for the cost of repairing something the owner or his mechanic screwed up. B. It's not the manufacturer solely who makes them more difficult to work on, it's the government with all of the regulations on fuel efficiency, pollution,.... And of course new technology, new materials, new processes,.. computer driven engines and controls,.. make it more complicated to work on them. And China being a blatant thief of US intellectual property, I imagine that may play into it. All manufacturers deal with this. You see any manufacturers offering analog or the old mechanical gages these days? They're packing 10 lbs of sheet in 5 lb sheet bags.

    Easy to say until you start shelling money out to fix it. Repair and parts are very expensive and adds up quickly for construction equipment not like a automobile. You can really get screwed big time on used construction equipment especially if it’s been sitting for a long time or it’s a rental unit. Hoses and seals dry out, etc. The first thing you ask yourself especially on equipment like that is why was it parked and for how long.

    Not sure where he is getting g his hoses but I had one of these type loader donated for a few months to work on my motocross track and I promised to fix anything that broke while I was using it. Well I blew a hose one day and it was one of the loader lift hoses just like this and I had it made for $67 dollars here in Colorado Springs. This was 10 years ago but it can’t be that much more. I spent more on hydraulic fluid that the hose because by the time I realize the hose blew I pumped about 20-25 gallons of fluid out. That cost me close to $200 if I remember right. I ended up spending 3-4K on diesel fuel while it was here because that was when BO took office in 08 and diesel and gas skyrocketed to around $4 a gallon and I was even driving to the petroleum place to get red fuel.

    Interesting video and a good loader. I worked for the Clark Engineering Laboratory back in the day, transmission division. Clutch modulation was developed on the B version of the 125. I always liked these machines. The first time we pulled the transmission for the start of the test series it took nearly a week. By the end of development I could pull transmissions in just over an hour after installing many zippers. By the way that dash 4 hose you capped off was to the transmission pressure gauge originally and should have read 240 to 270 psi. I would put a new hose to a gauge there and see if you have pressure if it isn't moving.

    Got to love diesels. My parents bought some land that is surrounded by National forest and despite having a town road going all the way to the driveway for the first several years we lived there the town wouldn't reliably plow the road in the winter. A neighbor of ours had a snowplow truck that came from an airport up by lake Superior that had been sitting for years and we did the same thing with him. If it would start and move we would buy it. It had the 220 Cummins in it and amazingly fired right up after maybe a 10-15 seconds I remember it shooting a birds next out the exhaust about 20 feet in the air when it started. It was an old FWD truck that had two blocks of concrete on the back one 4'x8'x4' and one 4'x2'x8' and with a 12 foot plow it go through a foot of snow like nothing, didn't even need chains. Eventually we turned it into a 4x4 tractor.
