Homesteading is the future.
Follow me and my interests in "How things work". Homesteading will be the theme. The repair of small engines from garden tractors, mowers, power generators, well pumps and all the other small engines on your homestead is essential. I also am planning a garden using worm composting and natural seeds. We will then move on to solar panels and a system for lights and computer internet connections without commercial power. Subscribe to my channel and let's go on this journey together.

A Journey Through Time and Emotion: The Enduring Legacy of "I'll Take You Home Again, Kathleen"
The Irish ballad "I'll Take You Home Again, Kathleen" emerged at a time when Ireland was experiencing significant hardship and turmoil. The Great Famine of the mid-19th century left over a million people dead and forced countless others to emigrate in search of a better life. It was during this period of mass exodus that the song's composer, Thomas P. Westendorf, penned the ballad. The ballad's poignant lyrics and stirring melody capture the complex emotions experienced by those who were forced to leave their homeland, instilling a deep sense of nostalgia and longing for the past.
The ballad's intense emotional impact can be attributed to its evocative lyrics, which tell the story of a man yearning to return to his homeland with his beloved Kathleen. The song's protagonist is a symbol of the countless Irish emigrants who left their homes and loved ones behind, seeking solace in the prospect of one day returning to their cherished land. The lyrics, combined with the hauntingly beautiful melody, convey a sense of deep longing and unrequited love, stirring the souls of listeners and transporting them to a time and place where the heartache of separation and the hope of reunion coexist

Wow, Im glad I found your channel
Thankyou!
So if that sheer mark on the bolt is off center with that notch, the engine is out of time?
Sure wsh you were in my area. I would like to learn more about these engines. Video was good. Just show more of what you are talking about. We couldn't see what you were discussing. Otherwise, great video. Thanks
Nice bird houses. I don't have a scroll saw but I can cut strips and glue them to the house to look like windows and doors. Nice video. The birds will like them just fine. The fancy looking bird houses are for the people.
Except wd 40 is not a peneting oil, so it doesn't really break up the rust.
It's always been my dream to have Victorian type columns in my house

Hey Gene, weird question for you, do you happen to have the assembly instructions for that oven? I managed to disassemble it but I'm lost trying to put it back together LOL
I can't help. Lost those instructions years ago.
@@GeneLonergan Yeah, me too...
Thanks for the video. Although it seems a lot of moving parts just to get lighting. Perhaps a cold draft lantern is a more reliable choice (also quieter).
Best explanation out there. Even I get it. Thank you very much!! I couldn't find the templates though.
Thanks for the great reply. I really appreciate it. Thanks for asking but I no longer do the templates. Gene
Thanks from Kazakhstan 🫂
I appreciate it.
The way the world is going these days it’s time to channel the inner Boy Scout and Be Prepared! I have a Butterfly lantern that needs some tlc and thankful for your calm, collected explanation of the kerosene coolers. I didn’t realise how clean they burned.
It's starting to look more critical.
Thanks for your help awesome
Happy to help
Great video, where can I purchase this course, for Briggs and stanton
Appreciate your reply. It's been so long ago, the books are the course (hopefully with the help of my videos) and I bought the books either from Amazon or Briggs and Stanton.
Brake assembly bolt is 15/16ths? They didn't look that big. I could be confused.
What are the 1⅝ blocks used for??
Thanks! Very informative and very helpful.
Glad it was helpful!
Hello - with regards to the square inch pounds of each bolt - how do you measure those specs when doing the rebuild?
Where is video on how to make it couldn't find it
I know nothing about engine repair and have always felt lost when approaching the subject. This video series has been extremely helpful in allowing me to finally grasp some of these concepts. Thank you!!! Loved the included segment on practical diagnostic application.
I really appreciate your comment. Glad I could help.
Many thanks. Done so much whip lashing at Guide camp building washing up stands etc. But have never whip lashed with 3 poles. Growing runner beans nd peas in pots, so perfect advice . Thank you brilliant.
Thanks so much for the comment.
Thank you for the tutorial and great commentary. How do you know when and where to use gasket sealer? Is it only needed where you are containing oil? I would pay good money for a similar video on a briggs and stratton v twin for a riding mower ! And while we're at it how about a tutorial for a Honda GCV160 walk behind? We got both with our new house, both are not well. The Honda has definitely been torn into and not reassembled properly- at all. Again, a big thank you to Mr. Lonergan for the quality tutorial!
absolutely the easiest and best explanation 👍🏽👍🏽
Glad it helped!
Did you say it was easy to do to remove water from the fuel tank … with just a few tools😳😳😳
I just watched a saw video then figured I’d check out your most recent. This is fantastic! Please continue if you have a passion for it. Love the historical facts, background music and the scenes.
You've made my day! Did not know if anyone on my DIY channel would care to watch this type of video. Thanks again for the encouragement.
Nice video - but the real problem (trust me) is trying to power clean 95lbs of lawnmower with 90 degree corners into the trunk without damaging the car or yourself.
I have got two of these, they are great. They have got me out of trouble more then once. Not only do they light up a room they also warm it up as well. Just to keep up I have also got a large primus that I have used to cook on and make tea/coffee with. In the shed I keep a 20ltr Jerry can of parafin in the shade ready on standby. I am not a prepper as such but I like to exercise some common sense. I am 60yrs old and don't like being cold. Thanks for the posting....
Thanks for sharing
Excellent Training. Thank you so much.

A gallon of kerosene low odour is $40 in Australia roughly and $25 for standard.

wow! Still helpful in 2024!
I love it when customers take an interest what needs to be done.. most of them say, including men just say I don't care I just want it fixed 🙄
Watching this i was thinking about when i have to call people to let them know that their machine had flat lined. They always want us to magically be able to fix it. Nope RIP its done, sorry. Better off buying a brand new one
It seems that is becoming the way it is. Cheaper to replace than repair.
The more i watch your videos the more i want the book. Also as a person who works with small engine parts if you come in with this giant piece of paper for me. I love you. If you come in with part numbers. I really love you
I work at a small engine shop. and i love my job. Very green. My boss would like it if i knew more. Im using your videos to teach me a thing or two! I want to find that text book. Thanks so much for your videos.
Okay but I want this text book and work book
These work im pretty sure. I just poured diesel that was like 3 years old through one of these into a tractor that hadn't ran in like 10+ years and it fired right up
Can i go into the top of any container? Because I've seen some made with a hole in the side near the bottom which seems sort of difficult to do without it leaking.
Maybe im missing something but im not understanding how to do it. If i dont have it level wont that much water just go back into the jug to level it out from whereever im holding it?
Much appreciated and very helpful!
Glad it was helpful!
Excellent work
Excellent tips, thanks for sharing.
Hope it helps.
Thanks Sir
All the best
