 hey guys shiver1000 here today we're going to pull the engine off of this twin track two thousand stick with me let's do this together okay guys so first thing of course i want to unhook all the wiring should be down in there but first thing i got to do is pull this side off i was looking i got this bolt here but one of the weld nuts this is kind of like a weld well where's that like right here it's kind of like a weld nut but it's not technically welded they get to spinning this whole thing will spin that's what's wrong with that one there so i'll have to get on it with a pair of ice grips to pull that out i got two more up in here and then i should be able to pull this this side cover off and this is the way the engine is going to come out this way there should be four bolts underneath that hold the engine on itself so first i'm going to try to get this off of here if the bolts break i'm not real concerned about it because these i can just put regular bolts in it because i do have enough room to put a nut on it so i'm going to back up here a little bit and uh... i'm going to take this one off first because it's going to be a pain in the ass i'll just fast forward through everything okay this is what i used okay so i don't have to take another two out i thought there was two more up in there but so anyway there's that that thing was spinning right there this was just spinning inside there so that's why i had to hold it with the ice grips alright so there's the engine so i may have to get up under there to get to the starter i'm not sure i blow all this stuff out these were pretty good pretty good engines but we'll see if we can make this a good engine again soon so let me let me get all this stuff unhooked i'm not going to bore you with that it's just i'm plugging a couple wires and you know the fuel line it's no big deal i'm just going to have to take the fuel line off here so you didn't see that right here and then then we'll go from there eventually i'm going to have to take all this stuff off but i want to get this engine off and get it in on my bench so hang tight guys and i'll be back with okay guys i got everything unhooked all i had to do was unhook the choke throttle and two wires i got the four bolts out from underneath there and this is what came off not good so i'm going to figure out a way to weld that uh that's one of the tabs for the motor for the motor mount on the bottom of block and i'm thinking it may be aluminum i'm not sure i'll have to see but we'll have to burn that bridge when we get to it i gotta hurry up monkey's on her way if she sees me doing this i will get and all kinds of trouble took the exhaust off but i didn't motor mounts look pretty good what i'm going to do with that i want to get all the grime off of it i broke that trying to get that off whoops that it's no big deal um for mount tabs one's okay this one's the one that's broke off so if any way it's broke off there see it's supposed to look like this one so let's pick up and get this stuff blown out of here swap out of here or something and then we'll uh and we'll put it up on the bench i don't know if i'm going to take it apart today but we're going to we're going to see i don't know if i got time or not i mean i should have plenty of time might be a late night shop night but anyway there we are the motor is out of it like i said looks like a just looks like a volkswagen engine only two cylinders instead of four it's pretty much set up kind of the same way actually these this is an opposed twin it's not a v-twin all right let me get that stuff blown out of here and see what i can blow off of that thing then we'll take it in set it up on the bench all right we got it in here now listen guys if monkey asks bruna helped me with this okay because i'm not supposed to lift things of that nature well i'm not supposed to lift anything more than five pounds which is about that thing so i guess i'm going to drain oil i'll run it down on down into my pan on the ground first not on the ground but in the pan on the ground and we've rebuilt on here so and then bring us over to the edge i got a pan out there i'll put down we'll drain all the oil i'll probably flip it up onto that side right there but that's okay it's what it's here for it's actually a desk you know just a desk so you got it from work they gave it to me and then we'll pull that we'll pull the sump off of it or oil pan whichever you prefer there's no right or wrong way to say that no matter what anybody says it's it's an oil pan really so what i was gonna what i was gonna do was i was gonna pull this off this pulley off this off here and just look inside since i can't get the pulley off right now well i'll be able to once uh once i get my puller set out it's over in my toolbox um so well that's what we're gonna do guys so i don't know if this this piston's moving in or out or not let me get my little pan get it set down there let's start draining some oil all right i got my little fan running over there because it's pretty hot in this garage while we got it up here while that's draining i don't have to get in your way but it happens it happens maybe i can get you over this way maybe that'll help okay so let's go ahead pull this off of here and then put them shrouds back on you don't want to do that guys it's got to circulate there should be like on the flywheel there's fins like a fan and that circulates your air past these past these uh fins right here okay you take that off and it can't get the air that it needs to get so therefore it will overheat on you to cause some issues so i love this little set just from harbor freight but the only thing i don't like about it is the magnets will come out after a little bit and you got to try to go back in the best thing to do if you got a magnet coming out don't try to glow at your wasting your time you'll ask for a little bit but they're very strong magnets if it comes starts coming out on you put a little epoxy on it let's go ahead and pull this head off see what the valves look like on this side and see if this piston's moving i gotta try to be careful because i haven't issued getting it out so it's no big deal on these if i would happen to have to drill one out you can put what they call a helicoil in there or if it's not super duper bad you can um they're not super duper bad they're gonna put you a little better bolt in it okay so let's see if this piston moves yes this piston is moving so that means a rod to get it look at all that gook and shit in there where was that coming from these will turn the other side turns these should turn that one's not wanting to turn it's stuck this one's stuck no it ain't okay see that's the way they're supposed to turn like that if they don't you gotta try to get them to turn sometimes you gotta put see that stuck bend the valve real easy punch of these i've been fortunate enough not to bend any and if i did so what i'm gonna do here i may have to have to pull the exhaust the exhaust manifold off the intake manifold off right right under here is um like your valve covers okay pull them off that's where your valve springs set so all right but at least this piston's moving in and out but it doesn't look good does it what we got to do it's going to come out because i'm going to go ahead and hone these cylinders and i'll put new rings in it with the piston still in it but since i'm putting new rings in it i might as well uh it's going to be out good then it's real rough right there so hopefully that'll come out with a home i'll show you what a home looks like that's what a cylinder home looks like and it's not going to be big enough so i have to get a bigger one that's what it looks like they also make different kinds of ball homes uh just different kinds of them but so i have to get a bigger one probably have to get a bigger one for monkeys tractor too so because we're going to be doing it too anxious let's get inside of here and see what it looks like if the rod snapped if the rod cat came off you know i know it didn't like technically throw a rod that i can see so let's uh get this flipped up take the sump off see what we've got going on inside there okay so the size these are should be four bolts but anyway let me get everything set up for you guys and we'll take these out we'll take the sump off it's going to be a mess but it is what it is right hang tight okay guys it actually says onon on the starter so i don't know if that's original or if it's been replaced at one time with an actual onon uh it's similar to a a general motor starter Chevy or GMC we got one size bigger but sometimes water will also cause that to see it's like rust but here so hang tight this is a very important tool push in a but works just fine to me it'll be the first time since i've had this thing so i'm pretty sure i did a review on it from the men who like to get away from there just like me let me zoom you in a little bit what we're looking at you guys see that drop the takeoff but i'll see what we're looking at here this is the crank journal i see some scoring on it i don't know how bad this is the other the other rod it's going to be coming out of course so what we're going to do now we're going to push this piston out okay so let me get you on the pod i'll get you over here camera over easy she won't kick my ass a little bit there a little bit tighter shot okay so it's going to need a piston too guys and that thing blew up so i'm going to need piston rod i'll see if i can't get a kit these are the rings this is what we're going to be placing on monkeys be replacing on monkeys tractor too uh if i can get by that cylinder look at that thing yeah she blew up guys fully the crank journal's okay if crank we're going to throw it together if it's not then we're kind of we're kind of screwed up you may have a knock in it that could just be aluminum i'll have to i've got some acid erratic acid i'll soak that on there i really didn't want to take that crank out of there i may not have to set i won't have to lap them valve it looks like aluminum from the rod but the first thing i'm going to have to do is i'm going to have to make sure that crank journal is not messed up if it's not if it's not worn too bad i will i will throw a rod in it and we'll see what what happens i don't want to put a whole bunch of money into it for that reason but i'll have to inspect it and see this rod it's got in play which they have to have a little but it's going to come out there anyway and we'll we'll check and see see what's going on with that but so there you guys go okay guys there it is tore down to the piston up i might see if i can find a used set put in there i don't want to dump a bunch of money into this thing i'd like to keep it i probably should do a rebuild a complete rebuild on it grind the valves i i think i can get by with just lapping the valves but you know we'll just have to see see what that crank journal looks like once i get it cleaned up with some acid now what that does is eat the uh it eats that aluminum off of it but it doesn't hurt the crank journal but you don't want to leave it on there too long just a minute or so it'll start eating it off there and then you can neutralize it with baking soda you rinse it out um you know for thousand dollars i i'm i'm pretty close to a brand new motor not this size of course but i just uh i just love doing this shit and get it get it together get it right in then i'll sell it to somebody and uh i'll have to let them know you know well i did throw a rod i'm not going to worry about it i'll tell them it's been rebuilt i think a new rod and new piston i think will be fine as long as the as long as the cylinder's not scored too bad i think i'll be all right i'll go ahead and pop that other one out just two nuts on the end i'll pop it out just like i did this one and i'll check check the uh check the piston for see if it's scored that way i'll be able to see the cylinder a lot better um yeah that just uh that just blew up if that one valve wasn't sticking it probably would have started on one cylinder and ran it was the intake valve that was sticking so anyway guys thanks for watching thanks for hanging out with me thanks for putting this up on the bench so i don't get in trouble with monkey uh she's on her way back so her mom they went to her mom's house to get some things and get the truck like i said we just had it towed out here these are expired and there's no insurance on it so i don't want to drive it that far that we did drive the c-bring out here from oh you florida people from belview pretty close to an hour and a half drive close to it from where we got the car drivel clear our new tags or nothing so anyway uh don't do that i don't recommend it but i can't get a gasket set it'll come with with everything i need the head gaskets the sump gasket now if you would have to pull that off there for some reason just the sump like you know to to say do something with with the uh the pickup tube or whatever can you use black or tv sealant yes you can on these things yes you can't would i recommend it on a vehicle no this is a freaking lawn mower it's a big lawn mower it's industrial but gaskets new ones on it um if it's just a push mower and you took it apart because of you had a sticky valve you cleaned it up and stuff and you want to reuse it again use that um what's called indian head it's like a gasket sealer tax set put it back on and run it it's a push mower gokart same way unless you got a very expensive gokart but if you're just throwing one together yeah just give it a little extra torque you know another inch pound or foot pound whatever they call for so yeah that's what i'm going to do guys i'm just gonna i'm gonna go from there i'm gonna look up some parts and we'll see what they cost first uh i know the gasket sets not very much it's 20 or 30 bucks but a piston rod and rings that's where it's going to get expensive um hopefully i can find a set of two we'll have to see if i can find a set of two that's the route i'll go put them both in if not i'll just get one um i hate to put one new one in because see these don't have bearings in them okay then if i had that one off i'd show you it just kind of a thick aluminum soft aluminum that acts as your bearings it's called a babbit like the babbit motors uh you gear heads know what i'm talking about there's no there's no bearings in here per se so shit monkeys here so all right i'm gonna get off of here and uh so i'll have to mic it maybe plastic gauge it if i do all that i'll show you how to do it on the other one see how much uh movements there you know uh because i hate to put it together and have this one start knocking you know through this rod anyway guys again thanks for watching appreciate it shea bear the myth man legend gone for now monkey just backed in i see her on the cameras there this is pulled in all right guys thanks for watching talk to you soon bye bye all right we got the truck unloaded i didn't bore you with that you guys have seen that before so i guess she's old enough to smoke right all right we got some other things to do so hang tight guys
