  • This Ford 3000 has been stood for over 12 years and hasn't run in all that time. Will it turn over ? Will it start ? Will it run ?

    I bought a 3000 that been sitting for years under a tree, was about as green as that, fired it up, changed oil and filter, drove it 3.5hrs home on road, faithful old things

  • @samuelhenzmann9833
    @samuelhenzmann9833 4 года назад +6

    I really liked how you first took care of the engine like check oil and coolant and oil the valves, before starting it up.
    Other people fire it up first then check oil and coolant level.

    What is it with diesels? Sometimes you can ignore them for 12 years and they'll fire right up. Other times you leave them overnight and you're buggered. Nice one. 👍

    Rescued a 3000 twenty years ago, had a Lambourn cab on it. Pulled like a school boy! It to had been stood for a good few years and started straight up. Good little tractors.

  • @28YorkshireRose12
    @28YorkshireRose12 4 года назад +2

    It was one of these that permanently damaged my hearing - Worst cab ever on any tractor I have driven, but, they were a redoubtable little workhorse that took over where the Dexta left off. After my hearing had been destroyed, then the boss bought a 4600 (a glorified Dexta!). It had the Sankey "Q" cab (bubble cab) and by comparison, was an absolute delight to drive.
    In those days (1975) we were bashing away for 16 hours a day, and ear defenders were only for wusses - if you could get them! My skinflint boss would never spend the money.
    Our 6600 was the tractor of choice for heavy work, but I'd moved on before the arrival of the TW-20.

    I wish this was in Michigan, usa - that is practically my IDEAL tractor right about now, only thing to make better would be a front loader! I was hoping to pick up one of these when I moved, but, home repairs killed the budget.... I can still dream, and hope for a great deal on one like this, if only I could afford it.... Wouldn't even mind the tires, it would be used for homesteading anyway...

    When people talk about porous blocks there is more than one reason some went porous in the camshaft housing which meant the block was scrap some used to crack in the bore which meant you could liner them most of the porous blocks I found where on 4..4 size bores 4/5000 46/66/7600 very rarely a4..2 inch bore 2/3000 36/5600 they allways reckoned you left the water pump on when it was bored for liners another thing check length of water pump bolt make sure they did not bottom out putting pressure on no1 cylinder i think some areas of the country had harder water which caused more problems

    I purchased a 4700 or 4600 (can't remember which ) for 100 nzd few years ago with an apparent buggered motor. Run like a clock after 12 years! Engine wasn't buggered, the seal in the front of injector pump was allowing fuel to get into crankcase being gravity feed, so when it sat for 2 weeks and I checked oil, the oil level was way over full giving symptoms of water in oil, previous ower was a dick head and falsely diagnosed it! Cost me 24 beers to repair pump! Best 100 I've ever spent. 3000s do it too.

  • @williamdavidson9009
    @williamdavidson9009 4 года назад +2

    I've found that often the coolant evaporates after a while. When you cranked it it sounded like one cylinder was low on compression so you might check that all the valves are moving.

    • @LordMuck
      @LordMuck  4 года назад +2

      I checked they were all free when I oiled the top end.
      There's coolant in the rad, just below the top hose as I could feel it when squeezing the hose and after it ran you could see it leaking through a split in the hose.
