Put it on a go cart and let it rip

Hi i have a question about my gravely model l from 1970 . Is there a email adres or something .?

A great 8N engine repair video.

IM LOOKING FOR A FAN SHROUD FOR A 12 HP ELECTRIC START KOLER . THE ONE OVER THE FAN AND THE ONE ON TOP OF THE HEAD . HAVE CASH :) CAN YOU HELP ?

Water pump noise?

Should have adjustable lifters

Would this be the same for a 7 horse engine?

Great video. I'm finishing up a square nose panzer that was restored and then stored for 10 years in a barn. When I saw it for sale, I had to give it a home 😂

I was hoping for a talk through on start up

Nice David Bradley. Ours is missing the hood. We were told the by the grandson of the original owner that his grandfather put a bigger engine on it and the hood would not fit.

I wonder if the valve is slightly bent? Because of the force that was put on it when it was turned over? And why it's not going back down easily? Or maybe the debri that was binding the valve has mared up the guide to the point of causing damage to the guide?

Wow I am really happy for you, big bold change and young enough to dig in easy when you arive👍 wish I had done the same. I spent my childhood traveling all over the west up in the mountains, you name it I was there, traveled roads don't exist stopped at places that there is barely a mark on the land showing where it was. Many towns are gone, the people I met or from another Century, The jokes the humor the food the civility the ethics and the health. I breathed some of the best air there was drink the cleanest and poorest water that one could have, unfortunately the trees are not there like they were when I went back 20 years ago, but they're an awful lot more people there. I miss the days when it was half an hour to 45 minutes between cars passing you while you're on the side of the road. And I really miss those people, all those old timers were amazing, so many of them had serious grit, smarts and a definite can do about everything, many of them had gone through the great depression which created a different kind of a person, good on a handshake was a deal. I hope everything goes well for you, I'm sitting out on a similar adventure but unfortunately I'm not headed to the beauty that you are, the dirt different and the seasons are different. Good luck with all you do, and don't forget to talk to your parents, they will be constantly wondering how you are, and I am guessing you will always be their kid. So they want to know how you are. thank you for your content, it's obvious you like doing all the same things I like doing, sorta makes me smile. It'll be real interesting if I can make it a go, I'm pretty old and I'm doing this pretty late in life, if I'm lucky and my health improves with the work I put this old body into, I should be able to finish my days in peace.

Very informative tractor repair video. Are you up for a collaboration? Hipa supplies parts for small engines and maybe we would work together to help more people in the community.

I'm proud of ya buddy! No doubt in my mind you'll Prosper and feel piece and happiness. Hope to see you in the spring of 2025 plow day and talk about the West!!

There is a clip holding the valve guides in the whole unit should come out . The new style has one piece guides

There is only like three or four parts on the whole tractor that cannot be found new

Jake, Glad to see that you are living the dream. Best wishes for an Assabet graduate. Mark Hollick, Principal Got your video link from your grandfather

Can you run 7018 with it

Dude you and I are alike. I hated Worcester Mass. every minute of the 20 years I lived there. I'm in middle Tennessee now and it is soooooo much better🙂

Best of luck in your new endeavors! Have a great time out there. You'll be missed by the local Gravely community. John in CT.

What keeps the oil out of the cylinders around the valve s?

Jake, good to hear you are making a break. You have work ethic, skills, tools and support. The mountain states all have a lot to offer. Give Wyoming a summer and a winter then reassess. Personally, I like warm better than cold.😂 I wish you the best, my friend! Thanks for the update!

I'm late to the party here, but I have a 155 I'm doing a full restoration on, but this thing is a beast, so it's a keeper. Your 195 is a beaut, but I noticed that deck guards are missing. You have a keeper that you have already worked on! Good for you!

Good luck! Enjoy that beautiful country out there

Good luck buddy! Nice video, hope you find what you’re looking for! You’re always welcome here in Mass too 😊

Go to Cheyenne and see the Union Pacific Big Boy 4014 before it leaves for the planned summer excursion.

I wish you the best and find what your looking for

Back in the 70's I owned a 1963 GMC Carry All 4x4 with the 305 ci V6. A definiet stump puller. The truck always took me home after many trips across the West. Unfortunately is was stoelen years ago. Great memories, for sure! Onward.

I didn't know about this when I picked out my "Jakes General Repair" T-shirt for today's fashion statement. Very surprised to hear from a friend you had moved. Smart move for old vehicles- they don't rust out there! Good luck!

Follow those dreams! Best wishes to you and your future.

Wish you all the best Jake.

Son you only live once. Make your life matter to you. Be safe and enjoy yourself and work doing something you love and next thing you know you’ll be eighty years old it’s that fast

great choice , its a big country , i have been out west two times , it is indescribable , i have lived in a few other states ,north central massachusetts is home , I've enjoyed your videos for several years . have fun

Following your heart is inspiring to others Jake. Great work mate !! G’day from Australia.

Hey Jake! I'm really glad for you, man. I wish that I wasn't married, and could relocate somewhere south like Louisiana where I worked for Exxon in Baton Rouge. I loved it down there, the weather was hot, and I had so many friends. But my wife wanted to go back up north, so I looked for a job, accepted one with Westinghouse in Framingham, MA, resigned from an awesome job at Exxon. The my ex-wife's aunt and uncle came down and convinced her to take our 2 y/o son and move to Connecticut with them. I pleaded to get my job back but I couldn't, so I had done what I thought was best for my family and had gotten screwed. I never should have left. I landed up in cold and rainy Massachusetts with absolutely no reason or desire to be there. That's the basis of all my major decisions in life; I don't make them for me; I make them based on the feeling that I'm obligated to do so because I owe it to someone else. I would be so much happier now if I had stuck with the decisions that I knew would make MY life happy. You're doing the right thing by following your heart; that's the best way. You're a good guy, not a selfish one, and I'm sure that you'll stay in touch with your family; it's sooo much easier to do so now. I'll miss having you nearby, as will a lot of people, to repair my antique equipment and just talk, but, again, that's essy enough to do by phone. I wish you happiness and success, old friend! 🫡👏🤝 Best wishes, Bill

All the best as you adventure here in the West, Jake. I'm a Coloradan, and one thing you might want to know is that Gravely Ls are few and far between. Enjoy your travels and new job.

Wishing the best for you Jake. A new adventure is always exciting.

Good luck young soul

Wow! Do it while you’re young is smart. Good luck buddy. You have the skills and the determination. You’ll do just fine.

Congratulations! I could always sense that you weren’t happy at that shop. People took advantage of you because of your age and only wanted to pay you $10 an hour to work on their junk… IMO. Also Mass is a state filled with a bunch of miserable people, and I thought it was bad here in NY!

If I had to guess he’s just under 25 🤷‍♂️Seems like only a few years ago he was 18. He’s far more wise than I

Jake, Best wishes for peace, happiness, health, wealth, and contentment in your life. Please keep in touch with a few vids now and again. God Bless Always.

Good for you. I made a similar decision almost 10 years ago, for almost the same reasons. And it worked out fantastic. If you have the work ethic, you won't fail. And you won't.

Man it's gunna suck not having you around to hang out with and go to shows with and what not next year but I'm also really happy for ya at the same time. So glad that everything's going so smoothly with the trip so far and also happy to hear that after those last few months of insanity with getting everything ready and what not that you were able to relax and have some fun on this road trip! Looking forward to some more videos from your across the summer and can't wait to hear how things end up going for ya out there soon!

It’s good to hear from you just do you an enjoy life. Hope the best for you

Good luck Jake I will be looking for the update video keep on trucking!

Thanks for the update Jake I wish you good luck on your new job and home in Wyoming, be safe my friend and enjoy it out there, hope to see ya again soon

Keep us posted! I cannot buy a shop where I am too. Debating on relocating. God bless!

Best of luck to you, Jake. Hope it always works out for the best.
