Hey guys and how's it going good morning if it's morning for you, it is a saturday we've had some nice weather all week and yard sale season is upon us is bright and early in the morning i figured i'd turn the camera on. Let's do a little road trip, so we can find see if we can fill a truck on some bargains and have a little fun time and our first one looks like a good selection. Plus they got an old barn and we got a rake and a bunch of light bulbs for four bucks total our next one's got a little bit of something train set for two bucks um. I don't see anything automotive next, one we'll go check that one out nope on to the next one had a nice guitar there.

I guess they want us to park out here does not look like they are ready to rock and roll, though you know they're just selling the table rolling up on the next one. Let's go see what this one has to offer: decent-sized homes i like old farm homes, myself just for what i kind of look for. Let's go see if this is a drive-by or a good one, can't tell from the street we got ta walk up. That was a dud for me anyway.

Thing is in the morning like right now, it's 7 44. I think i started at like 7, 20 or 20 minutes into this. The first hour is where all the value is where you're gon na go find stuff because it gets sold out pretty quick. You know the decent stuff depends.

I found stuff at the end of the sales too, but we got another one rolling right here. Let's go check this one out that looks like a little bit of a motor head might have something and some square body truck stuff. I do not own square body chevy truck, so nothing on that one yeah. So you don't want to dilly dally and hit sales that you can kind of tell it's like baby clothes and things, if that's not what you're buying, because nothing worse than going to the next yard sale and the guys wheeling out a motorcycle that sold for 50 Bucks - and you were three minutes too late, because you were doing just that so in the beginning i like to learn to hustle and kind of cruise by the ones that you know don't have much of a chance and get the ones that have much more possibility.

Looking from the street, you know another there's like two of them down here and one across the street too, and some neighborhoods you got to kind of watch out for too, if they're like a really new neighborhood or like this one, we're rolling into this one looks Like it's going to be a uh apartment, complex like an over 55 community, there's not much power equipment use guy stuff, it's more like furniture and clothes that are in these yeah. This is going to be sometimes going to surprise you, though, but a lot of times. It's gon na be a dead. I don't know how far back this goes.

This looks like a rotary yeah, that's about what i expected. You might do a cruise buying this one yeah yep, that's expected all right. Let's go back, we can go get back to the other side of the street, where the more single family homes with you know, one to two acres are the ones that have the old tractors mowers, snow blowers. That kind of thing we're out of here.

It's like rolling up in the next one and someone's loading stuff in their truck, so someone beat us to whatever he's getting already do that who's, just unloading, the setup. That might be the case. Let's take a quick peek by this one. All right he's he's unloading, looks like a dud now.

You know that one, this bunch of kid stuff, hello, goodbye, this direction might be another one of those like over 55 communities or townhome houses, not sure yet yeah he's all all like 5 10 year old homes. So, generally, you find like the chandeliers that they took down that was built out of spec home and that kind of thing three yard sales on evergreen. This is evergreen check out evergreen snowshoes. When i make comments, there's gon na be people saying why don't you stop at that? One, because that's something that they wanted.

Not me, sorry about the dirty windshield nope, it's just uh. Here we go uh yeah, not what we're looking for good morning. Nope, all women stuff see a guy putting stuff out because we got some guy stuff here, she's a rototiller a little barrel. This one looks like we're: gon na go check out, and we got you know: seven quarts of oil, seventy quarts of oil for a dollar for all of them.

We got uh bunch of vice grips there three for two bucks, so i got six of those bodywork cameras, nice ones, the three of them for 10 and then a bunch of rivet sets with a rivet gun. That's all that was five bucks. Our next one. Try to find a parking spot, someone's iffy, might have some stuff in the back.

Let's go uh got ta, go check that one out this one's got a dog and a rototiller two dogs for sale and a rototiller, hi, you'd love to say hi. It hasn't run in three years 50 bucks a little bronco to tiller. Do a will around that one huh. So the last one where the chiller was, that was more of a uh farm kind of house.

She had a big tractor in the back and big garden and she got a a tiller for the back of the tractor and that one she couldn't use anymore. She didn't have reverse so she found it very hard to pull backwards. We got one on this street. Usually, where the cars are out in the road are generally where they are that machine's, probably about 200 bucks, maybe 150 200 bucks to clean it up, go through it, rototills really don't get much time on them.

There's not uh, not like a mower. You know where they run half hour a year, so even if they're 20 years old, they got like 5-10 hours on them. This looks like i don't know, there's a big hose reel out there. If that's for sale, that might be interesting.

Nice house hose reel wasn't for sale. Lured me in it was like a big fishing reel. It's like we're on a dead end here, nope. Oh, we got one on it's either that's directions to the one we're just at and i just drove over bottle.

That's not good glass nerd. Well, hopefully, i'm not changing a tire in about 15 minutes. There's one on the right, big garage, yeah, it's iffy on that one we'll go check it out, though nope dud, those are cool machines, see more cars. Both sides of the road.

Now, everybody's starting to come out, it is 8 39, now see golf cart, a lot of times, they're not for sale generally they're just for moving the stuff around. Let's go check it out. Good stuff. Next is a pressurized fuel tank for a boat.

These end fittings alone are getting super hard to find. That was two bucks. I got motors for that three houses up from the last one looks like they're just setting up. You know the neighbors, though that's a good, older home check this one out, yard sale.

It looks like a free pile and that trucks on that free, pile, let's go check out, see anything off the top of my head. Let's see what's going on over here, taking a whole wooden trunk, it was all free because see if the engine's left just a little too late. He just took a p. He just got a snow blower he's free snow blower is gone, but i got a trunk.

I don't know if it's faux old or it's old, either way kind of cool. Next one it's got some wheels might be toyota, you can mix well. This is gon na take a little finagling to get them in the truck ten bucks. A piece a couple old, columbias stuff's, getting a little hard on the hard side to find.

Now it is let's get them in. Not even a challenge. Plenty of room left still got a hole right in the center there. There you go phil in the backseat.

I left them for the next guy or a woman. I think it's a tractor freestyle on that get ourselves a free pile get out of the center of the road thing on top is like a big speaker check that out. Oh you plug into the side of them, hit my fingers, yeah kind of tiny looking for somebody else, and will you see cars? Let's go see what we got here. It might be a drive-by.

I think that one's a drive-by, this one says barn sale drive on down. I mean: let's go okay, keep going this one's an explorable one she's a little rough! Hmm, let's go see this one's got ta! You work for sale, go check out the vehicle. Well that last one had to build for sale. I ended up 20 minutes into that one looking at it, but uh just not the car for me going up here.

Let's go see what we got. I have done there's a woman that does this one every year should be a bunch of knickknacks, quick eyeball, though i guess we drive up, i'm getting the third gear in this driveway all right, we're back at home base after a little shopping spree, you get a Better look at what we got so the gas tank is for older outboards and is a pressurized tank. That's why it has twin an inlet and an outlet for it. The engine causes pressure to feed uh pressurize the tank, and it feeds gas back to it.

They get really hard to find and hard to find that are not rotted out, they're actually worth more than the outboards themselves, because you know it's it with the fuel, so they always crap out before the motor does bulbs. I have enough bulbs to last me the rest of my life in the main shop that we normally film in. I run two strings of these around just for the lighting that is in there gives it the right color. I know they're not efficient, but that's what i use them for train set for two bucks.

I definitely feel it was worth what we got. He said it was sitting in his closet. He was doing a clean out and uh. It was his when it was a kid, so it's been sitting in his closet for probably 30 years.

Will it run on that decent transformer? You use them for other things too, and what do we got for an engine, a broken one? Is there a runner in here it looks like they're going to need some love? Oh well! So that's what we got and it was two bucks. It's worth two bucks for. I have a stash if, when i drop dead in my attic, there's a whole bunch of uh slot cars and train set stuff, i grab them as i see them and then some day and a mold and feeble i'll take them all out set them up. In my basement, that's two boxes: oil was a buck.

Uh they're cool vws use a straight thirty. I thought they were street thirty. Maybe it's a mix anyway. I guess they got 10 30.

for a buck. They're worth it. They'll go on future lawn mowers. Vice grips.

They had a box of tools, it was. It was uh three for two bucks, so i picked out the ones that said vice grips on them. You know the real ones, not the knock-offs, that they make now much better. They are going to stay here in my home garage because i am without tools here, a very slim, location, uh, quad quantity and quality of tools, body hammers - these are nice.

These are made in germany. What's that focusing on that or not three body hammers they were you see he was asking five bucks a piece. I said how about three for ten and he said sure, so i grabbed the three of these. This need a bit a little bit of cleaning up, but they're, probably about 40 bucks, a piece 40 or 50 bucks, a piece now rivet set.

It was five bucks for the rivet gun and all the rivets and a box of these will probably cost you about. 10 bucks alone, so that'll go into the stash at the shop for future use anything else in here. It's any good. What's that i don't know what that is, it's got pam or something.

Then we get i'll get to the tiller in a minute. You got the chest, the chest was free, i don't think it's old. I think it's just a um make it look old kind of thing, but again it was free. I think we're going to use it in a yard for a table.

I'm going to flip it up on its side and use that for a table. You know why they have a curve on top some of them in the olden days when they put them in a ship. You didn't want your trunk on the very bottom, because all the stuff gets stacked on top of them and they get crushed. So you had a curved top, they would put the curved ones on the very top of the pile and they wouldn't get crushed on that kind of a cool look to it, though, even if it is a knock off, the bikes is uh.

Both of them are columbia's made in usa that one's got a almost like a 10-speed rear end on it. It's got the wrong rear wheel and the front one, and there were heavier rims too. Like you look at this one, you can see how thick the spokes are compared to regular bike. You know, of course this has meant to hold 400 pounds, so i had a little bit thicker.

You see. The spokes are thinner on the back one here and then the trike, the trike, is really the front of. It is just a regular bike. You can see the whole thing where a regular wheel would attach right down in here, and then this rear end bolts to it.

So you can actually take that rear end off and put that on another bike. That's probably what i'll do we'll see? That's like! I! Don't know that's the original handlebars or not, but my thought is to keep that rear end for another bike, so for 10 bucks on each one of them. I think that was a decent amount, i'll probably sell at least that one clean it up get it. So it's ridable and sell that one all right.

Let's go check out the uh rototiller, hey, let's see what this thing has to offer and the first is gon na be the condition of the gas tank. She tells yeah. It tells a good story. I wouldn't say it looks terrible, doesn't smell great.

At least it's got gas in it, though you just want to try to go for a fire up, see if we'll just go. Let's go check the oil in it and we'll give her a shot. If not, we have to pull that carb off anyway, the float. What's that thing and we'll see if we'll run just the way it was not going to hurt anything.

I have a larger, it's called the, not a pony. I i forget what the name of it is. It's a troy built larger tailor. There's like a four horse.

Big oil looks decent, but it's too big for our garden for the amount that it gets used. It's actually, you know for a garden, that's 20 by 30 feet, it's kind of ridiculous. This is a better size. All around.

I don't see any damage on the tines drag bar still on it. That's good deflector plate's still on it doesn't look, it's all beat up and then have a bunch of hits on it all right see we get got a nest in there or is it just dirt? What's your chances, i'm thinking it's not gon na go without draining the fuel bowl. Let's uh get set up all right, full choke throttle. Let's see what happens, make a guess.

I guess it's not going to go but never know we'll give it like 10.. I already lost count all right. I don't think she's going. Let's go crack open the float bowl and see what we get out of it got a new grass rats mug for home use.

The only 10 ml i got is an open end. There we go see what kind of puke comes out of here. Oh yeah, that's a good vintage huh. Why would it run she said three years? I want to say that's probably more like six and generally that's how that stuff works.

I don't think people do it on purpose. I just think they feel that so much time goes by that uh. They don't realize it yeah. I think you got ta drain all that fuel.

Take that bull right off, there's no fuel shut off so yeah. It might be an issue, no water, though just bad gas. Let's get that drained out of there, we'll pop that float bowl off, see if there's any crap sitting in there. I might want that.

I don't have a magnet here. Neither let's go take the needle and seat right out of it. Let it pour through there. You go it'll, take a minute or two to drain that out.

Let's go pop. The air cleaner off take a peek at how the filter looks that pretty clean a little bit of dirt sitting in the bottom, but not not terrible. You need to be clean now. You can still see that crud that always suck that up.

Eventually, don't you buy, the thumper in here looks like we're meant to do something like that. No, no, it's got a phillips on there, but i don't see any phillips screws holding it. How are you held on looks like you're supposed to pull right there taking too much? That's? Why not bad we'll blow the pre-filter out, i'm not bad at all, especially for a rototill. You know something kicks up a bunch of dirt.

We get that car back on we'll blow it out with air, get a bunch of the crap off of down inside. Here. You use the air gun trick to fill a tire. If you don't have a tire truck see if it'll work for us in the air gun in there, you can kind of get it on an angle and the air pressure will shoot.

The stem in i'm gon na have to get her up in the air. A little bit just, i thought i had a tube. Doesn't you impressed? I was, i got ta figure out somewhere to get either strap or something around that to expand it. I also got to get it off off the table.

If i just take that tire right off, pull a pin, but let's see if we can get the stem out of it, if you get the stem out, you can get a much more airflow going through. Let's go try that again and once you get it seated, you can come back as soon as you. Let go it's going to all piss out but see we get come on. It gets rusted, nope yeah we're just not getting it on the back side there.

I don't have any goop here to go, help seal it up. Let me take the air going to blow some of the crap out. You need a little tire goop a little bit of that they get to spread out a little. I don't even have a ratchet strap here to put around it, hold it there.

It goes got it that wasn't so bad that wasn't. If i could work quickly before it all pisses out there, yep got ta, be careful. The tire pressure's on these things are low. You're running them, like 5 10 psi, a lot of them don't have cords in them, so you want to blow it up.

Look at the direction of the tread. That's the tire we just put on this side's all backwards. Flip that one around, i think we're done with the gas draining put the float back on the main jet is right in the center and that's where it sucks fuel up. So i'm just going to give her a quick shot, make sure that's clear without pulling it down.

We have a problem where it doesn't run we'll get into that, but right now we're going to leave it alone. Here we'll put some gas in it's a little closer to clear easy enough. Maybe what we'll do is we'll open that drain on the carb again we'll let it flush through whatever's in the fuel line. Until we get some clear fuel, you see that yellow coming out of there that should keep flowing come on.

I should be doing better than that. The tank was pretty empty too going to go pop off the uh they're going. I think i'm gon na go pop that float off one more time blow out around the needle and seat a little bit or maybe let it run with that apart and then put it back together. The seal is on the needle there's no seal up inside there to blow out to blow away.

Well, it's up on its side. Let's go flip that wheel around a little wet around the axle there a lot of times just a gearbox with grease in them. You say you know why they have it i'm backwards, because you can get that clip on there. You go.

Another valve stems on a harder side to get to, but the treads match it on both sides now all right. So we get this time. I think the choke is still on. I don't know if you need the children full throttle, we'll try it with the choking again, it might be.

The plug might be all gummed up from that crappy gas, we'll warm up a sec. Let's go: try firing up the pines, take a choke off pretty good. At some point, it's gon na hit the ground wire load idle pop it a little bit get pretty slow bumping right along there. We go.

Let's go pop that cover off where the belt is just give a quick look at that see what the belt condition is and we think we're good to go. Uh that looks pretty good. I don't see wearing that belt at all. I think they did make a reverse version of it.

It would have another belt that went on to a separate setup down below and operated different. I'm not going to worry about that. It's light enough where it doesn't need much effort to back it up. Let's give her and pull on that spring like a snow blower, it all looks good, i'm getting the gearbox a little greasy, i'm not going to be concerned about that use a date with a pressure washer though well.

It worked out pretty good for 50 bucks huh. No complaints on that i'm gon na, like i said, i'm gon na replace the other machine that i have, which is a large tiller. It's probably yeah, it's probably worth between six and eight hundred bucks, so i'm gon na go kick that one to the curb and uh downgrade us or downsize us to the one. That's a little bit more to our our liking or using size.

We got one of those little uh, two-stroke ones too, though you don't even call them a tiller. You call themselves the cultivator, so they're good for stuff. That's already been busted up. If you're, trying to like break up soil or grass, that's never been broken up before you need something, that's got a little bit more snot.

Those will do it for us. It's probably worth about 150 bucks from 150 200.. I try to if they're really clean, like this one is where the paint's not all damaged. It's not banged up half of new, so whatever new one sells for you very figure about half the cost is what people would pay for one.

So i'm happy with it. I'm happy with all our purchases there's other stuff. I could have grabbed. I kind of you know that big tiller was kind of cool, but i just didn't feel like trying to huff it in my truck.

There was nobody there for help, and the last thing i knew was blow out my back and i got a ton of that stuff, but we got some other goodies already put the tools away. We got the train set and the bike frames and all that kind of thing, so i hope you enjoyed it had a little bit of fun with me anyway. If not, then i'll see you sunday when we get back to doing our regular wrenching segment uh this one, we probably throw up on a wednesday for a little midweek fun all right guys with that, i'm gon na sign off. Thank you all for hanging out with me a little bit of uh treasure, hunting and uh, exploring even got a treasure chest out of it until the next one i'll see you bye.

So, oh and one more thing, there was another item that i bought that i didn't get to show yet that might be for another video, here's a little precursor to what that might be see it soon.
