Big Busted 8HP vac-Sucker, Can It Be Fixed

Thanks for sharing and taking us along

That’s a great machine to get fixed. You even got the remote control working on it. Lol. Time for ice tea on the deck while watching it go back and forth!!

Merry Mac's mother's making Merry Mac marry me...

Still think you should stencil "Watch This Space" on your lift table.

Skipped more steps than a bush kangaroo

the mowr dance at the end was the best part, should have a Mustie jingle

how i could use that

What is a vacsacar

I like how you take nothing and make something out of it

Can’t believe you missed the opportunity to say “she was rode hard and put away wet”😂 love the videos

just like a snowblower; these things run for about 4 hrs total a year. Happy to be back watching Mustie!

LoL I like watching you work

Send it to me in ND

Ah yea, the Taryl cup makes an appearance 😅😅😅

Wrenching with a neighbour! Since your start I have always found a joy and humbleness to get to watch”free road side” fixer ups with you. Best way to enjoy a hot cup of coffee and Muskie1. Brings me back to your humble beginnings.

i hear you about the pneumatic tires. not so bad if they have tubes, but the tubless ones off the rims half the time.
and yeah, rodents.

My aunt and uncle had one of them for home use to pick up leaves in the fall never seen them use it that was back in the late 60s like 69-70
That one looks like it cost some money and was very well built.
Might even be from that time period i think they still make them cost is about 800 bucks is my bet.
Funny thing is a lawn mower with a bag will do about the same thing ecpt the pine cones or stuff like that.

Thanks Darren! I have that same or very close version of that Tecumseh engine in my NOMA (Canadian brand 🇨🇦) snowblower- bought in 1989 and it still runs like new. It is mounted horizontally to the direction of travel vs straight as in yours. The only issue I’ve ever had is the fuel supply line rotted out and I had to replace it. It was a bit of a nightmare fishing it through a twisting path between the engine and the frame but I managed to install it.

Talk about mouse nests, it's the same here in NE Texas. If it sits they build a nest!

My friend had a Tacoma. One day he started it and all kinds of warning lights came on. He took it to the dealer and found that mice ate the engine harness. $9000.00 to repair. He sprayed the engine compartment with peppermint, hung bags of moth balls under the hood and put some kind of electronic deterrent in the truck. Two weeks later, another $9000.00. After being told that the mice are more likely to eat Japanese wiring because they use a soy base for their wiring, he traded the truck in on a Bronco. It's been a year now and no problems.

My wife and I both got a good laugh over the autopilot vac! Take care sir.

Hi Mustie1 I hope your series of migraines have abated, but if they haven't, have you tried Zolmatriptan? There are a few drugs in the same family. I know that they are available in the US, as my brother has had some success with at least lessening his horrible migraines. I hope this helps.

6 inch, 4 inch… it’s the same. That’s NOT what she said.

Atta boy Mustie!

The ghost vacuum

Not gonna lie... when the vac was self-driving, I was half expecting a cartoon-style chase scene. :)

Nice job sir Nice Vac machine Nice show sir 😃👏👏👏👍👍👍

He really likes the word "stash". And he's into VWs, hmmm...... 😂

Looks more like a mulcher than a chipper to me, Love the Taryl Mug! Thanks Mustie

Why do old people like the tube socks with shorts?

Thanks for reviving that cool machine

Good to see you back at it. And I had a good laugh when that vac was just going back and forth on the video without anyone behind it. Thanks for sharing.

I noticed the struggle with the tire on the leaf vac/chipper

Here is a part number made by titan
Part number is 85533 sold at O’Reilly

Good grief. It's a dust machine. Need PPE when in use. 😷

We repair things.Anybody else "has been in here screwing around."

Their is also a cap that goes over the Chipper Hole . That makes it SUCK Better . Your losing Vacume with out it covered . Get more from thst place to fix .

You need a go cart rim my man.... 😊

I think I have seen the inspiration for the next Stephen King horror...beware the ghostrider wood chipper (and vacuum).

I used to use one like that at a grass seed plant. Had to have a clean floor for doing small custom mixes

Thanks for another great video Mustie 👍🏾😸

Beats the heck out of raking 👍🇺🇸

I think this one was fixed just for content. If they left it sitting that long, they weren’t planning to use it.

Enjoyed the video. Thanks for sharing

Look at that thing.
it's a side puller engine with a side horizontal crank! What kind of thing is Musty going to slap that thing into?
