This was a very helpful video! I saved up and bought my Allis WD last year at the age of 14, and I am so glad to see more kids of my generation who still appreciate these old machines!
thank you. very neat...i myself just turned 14 this past week. yes I am to....kinda hard in school to be the only one in school who wants to talk about this stuff but it is rewarding when I go to tractor shows and little kids like to climb up on the tractor and one-time last year I brought my 317 and let a little kid run the blade on it....it is very rewarding
I'm glad to see a young man appreciating the B Model. I worked a B model for many years on the family farm. We had bigger tractors, but the B model was my Go-To tractor for general work.
Awesome video. I have the same tractor. My Father bought it in the 60's. It was my first driving experience. Now since its so old I often pull it with another Tractor to start it. And your right. These tractors start when the gears are engaged. I get tired of the cranking. Been doing it since I was 10. Very informational and fun to watch!
Thanks, yes this is my first tractor that I have paid for (not first one I drove. My first "real tractor" was a ford 4000...my channel photo. Before that was a JD 317) Yes, the guy before would pull start it. I tried doing that too a few days back and wouldn't go but I think I know what my problem is now (geussing it's flooding itself with the choke or maybe the fuel jets are stuck
I grew up on the farm down here in New Zealand. As a kid u remember this old tractor. Certainly cranked that old over many times. Then one day a long came the Massey 28. So the Allis was retired to the family Bach by the sea to tow the boats out to the boat ramp. That was a long time ago.
Very cool, wow I would have never expected someone halfway across the world would be watching my videos. Yes the Allises are good tractors, I personally don't have any experience on one but I have a friend who has a newer 30hp Massey TLB. Thanks for the comment, I appreciate it!!!
That's a nice looking ol' B ya got there! Sounds good too. I like the sound of the straight cut gears... It reminds me of driving my David Brown 780 back when I had it. Thanks for sharing bud!
No problem, thanks for commenting!!! I remember watching some videos of that David Brown, I love my little tractor, can't wait to see the new place this spring during haying (looks really nice)
I’m a Farmall guy, not AC so I could be mistaken, but I was always told to stand out of the way of the crank and start on the bottom and pull-up. On Farmalls at least, pulling the crank past top-dead center can be deadly. Great video anyways 😊
Thanks, yes I don't see to many other kids my age hand cranking tractors...let alone buying one with chore money. Definitely makes me appreciate electric start. Thanks for watching -Brady
i just started my allis chalmers b for the frist time in almost 2 years because we have been painting it but i always crank from the front of the tractor so you can get a good crank but still helpful
It is great to see a young person appreciate old things. Showing it not start was hillarious. We"ve all had those moments. :) Btw, I suspect you had trouble starting it b/c the carb flooded the engine, rather than anything to do with the fuel strainer. The engine cleared during your cranking attempts after shutting the gas valve. Once running, the engine could handle the excess fuel. Check your spark plugs for carbon fouling and if present, check float height/condition of float to correct problem and make easier starts and avoid flooding problems.
Yes I love them, yeah It made it for a bit of a longer video but I wanted to show that I didn't quite get it right away. I actually had a really bad magneto too!! I ended up having it rebuilt and said that really the cap and the wires were the only thing left on the magneto that were mine!! I am so grateful for how all of it happens so now all I need to do is pull start it to get it alive again since it has been sitting and I will do a follow-up video. Yeah so it basically has a completely new magneto and spark plugs. Like I said I will do a follow-up video soon Have a great day!!! -Brady
Thanks, yes eventually one day I would like to have some real chores to do with it...if I could get it running again I'm going to see about letting our field grow more than usual and use my sickle mower. You take care to and thanks for watching -Brady
Thanks, I know I plan on making a video on the sickel mowing (I can't find any videos on Bs actually cutting hay. I'm not sure how long though, I need to make some repairs on the tractor itself and I am in the process of saving for the replacement parts. I hope to make a video on it here soon Hopefully.... assume the field dries up. Glad you enjoyed the video Thanks care -Brady
Got a sub from me, great seeing the old things alive, just picked mine up but I'm new to the tractor world have no idea what model it is. I've tried to go by serial but can't really find it. I think it may be a B. Once again great video can't wait to see the sickle mower goin
Thanks, yes makes me happy to have them going. Is it Allis Chalmers? Serial number is next to the gear shift on Allis Chalmers, and it is most likely a B or a C if it's an Allis. If you not sure (or on brand) send me a message of Facebook (tractors trucks and pups) or me email (in the about section on my page) Like I said I'm more than happy to help😃 Thanks again, yes hopefully I can get a video soon, it's been so dry that the grass is not growing....so there is nothing really to mow. -Brady
I think it's not that your float bowl is leaking but more that your needle is leaking in the carb and flossing the carb. The carb shouldn't flood even with the fuel left on.
When mine wont start its usually because its flooded .i drain the gas then turn the gas back on and it starts right up .but i cant lie .im afraid of using the crank .bust a finger .....no more like it' ll bust your arm
I'll take that into consideration, yeah I know a thing or 2 about finding stuff with the mower, I thought I put it away before driving, but I guess I didn't 😬, at least I still got it!!!

thank you, very cool. yes seems like it can do a lot for its time
Very good job, proud of you for taking interest in history. The world needs more young people like you!
I am very happy that I love doing this and I get the opportunity to. That k you for the kind words! -Brady
My dad has an Allis charmers b and I flood the engine all the time, I’m glad to see more teens like me love old tractors
Yes think I've flooded mine a few times myself...lol
I'm glad that there are more kids my age too

Very cool video, I'm picking one up tomorrow. Good to know it's got sharp turning, the one I'm buying has a belly mower.
Good job Young man, Thanks for the informative video. I just bought a 1951 Allis Chalmers B. I Haven’t had a chance to bring it home yet.
Thank you, congratulations, there a great little tractor when you get them tuned just right
Nice video. Nice to see the hunger generation still hand cranking. Good job!!!

Check your spark plugs for carbon fouling and if present, check float height/condition of float to correct problem and make easier starts and avoid flooding problems.
First check idle mixture screw setting in case set too rich.

@@Tractors_Trucks_And_Pups Yes Sir!!!!!!!!
A GREAT TRAINING VIDEO...RETIRED LARRY..
I have the same tractor. I remove the bolt on the front of the carb to drain the fuel. Replace bolt. Turn fuel back on. It starts first or 2nd crank.
Great video!
thank you
Nice video production.
Thank you!
Nice video and nice tractor, would love to see a video of you using the sickle bar mower
Thanks, I know I plan on making a video on the sickel mowing (I can't find any videos on Bs actually cutting hay.

I think it's not that your float bowl is leaking but more that your needle is leaking in the carb and flossing the carb. The carb shouldn't flood even with the fuel left on.
Yep, your right carburetor float needle leaking, not sediment bowl, causes flooding.!
Question: The fuel shut off is right-tighty = closed/off and left loosey = open/on, right? or no?
Correct, twisting it to the right (clockwise) closes the valve and shuts off fuel. And twisting it left (counter clockwise) opens the valve
I would say your carb needle valve leaks flooding carb
You know what. That would make sense why it can be so hard to start! I'll have to check that out! Thanks
When mine wont start its usually because its flooded .i drain the gas then turn the gas back on and it starts right up .but i cant lie .im afraid of using the crank .bust a finger .....no more like it' ll bust your arm
i wouldn't leave that crank handle in place.i lost mine tookme3 mounths to find it.the mower found it for me.
I'll take that into consideration, yeah I know a thing or 2 about finding stuff with the mower, I thought I put it away before driving, but I guess I didn't 😬, at least I still got it!!!
Park it on a hill
Better go get Dad.😉
Haha i would eventually get it, helped once the magneto was rebuilt, this one was toast!
@@Tractors_Trucks_And_Pups Yeah, I'm just given ya a hard time.
