The Massey Ferguson 35 Diesel Engine
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 13 мар 2024
- In this episode I replace the head gasket on this Massey Ferguson 35 Diesel tractor. It is a 3 cylinder Perkins diesel. We noticed the water in the oil after taking off the rocker cover to adjust the valve clearance. Come along to see how this job goes and see if it will run again. #tractor #mechanical #diesel #perkins #dieselengine #enginebuild #farmequipment #repair #restoration

Hi Steve Geoff here Perth you are right about dreams thay are cheap but if you don't dream you have nothing to look forward to, that little 35 is a great tractor I drove one on the farm and then a 35x and a 135 thay are great tractors. It's good to watch your blogs it brings back a lot of memories I had 55 old tractors and 32 stationery engines at one time but sadly they have all gone to a new paddock now I miss tinkering on them but Im a bit long in the tooth now. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK
Regards Geoff claxton
Hi Geoff. Thanks for watching and apologies for the late reply. Yes mate you are right about dreams. I have a few actually it this one would be great. They are a great tractor. I would have loved to seen your collection. I’m sure you miss tinkering but all good things come to an end I guess. It will one day for me also. I’m going to make the most of it while I can. Grow the collection a bit more and see where it gets me. All the best Geoff and plenty more coming for you to enjoy
Fair enough about the music. Sometimes I'd rather listen to the birds and the aeroplanes with all the stuff that's happening in the world these days 😅
I work with computers every day so it's good to chill out and watch somebody fix something else in a different area. Thanks mate. Appreciate the videos.
Yeah mate it’s not a problem either way. I’m certainly getting used to it
I enjoy your videos! 👍👍👍🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Absolutely spend time with your dad while you can buddy! I really miss my father
Thank you mate. I’m certainly going to try. I’m sure you miss him.
Mate I’m looking forward to the time when I’m watching you and your kids working on something side by side like you and your old man do !
Hi Ross. That would be great. I’m hoping it will happen like that
Thank you for not playing music. Love your videos. I'm doing something similar, but different, taking out 6 cylinder running gear and putting in v8 running gear. In a car tho.
Thank you Peter. It’s good you’re doing that. Feel free to share it with me on email, facebook or instagram mate
And now someone's Massey Ferguson 135 can continue to work for many years to come.
Certainly can indeed
Steve. Those combustion caps have been off before. originally the copper rings were replaced with a three hole copper gasket. Its a long time since i owned and worked on these tractors , but that's what i recall.. Thanks for the videos.
Hi Gerald. Yes mate I’d say so. I put the 3 hole ones in it and that was 2 months ago when I filmed this and blew it straight out and still having trouble with it till this day. I’ve tried several things but keeps blowing them out. I’ve got some heavy gasket paper to try this weekend
Keep up the good work you guys am enjoying every video , thanks
Thank you Steve
Greetings Steve from the city of Auckland NZ
Greetings mate thanks for watching
Best radiator flush ive used is a crushed up Finish dishwasher tablet with the red ball removed. Cant remember where i saw it used but works well. Ive got old junk in my paddock that runs every now and then, chamberlain, old toro etc. Beats a 20 min drive into town to get radiator flush.
Hi Callum thanks for the tip mate. I will certainly try it
Steve, Another great video. Nice 3-cylinder diesel engine to work on. I would like to help you out with working on your toys but, the Customs office would probably not approve of a retired person along with his tools from the US to work on your toys. Keep up the great work and videos.
Hi mate thanks for watching. Yes they probably would look at you a bit funny I’d imagine. All the best mate
Good video mate.
I personally watch you to try and learn something. Plus I like to see these old girls being kept out of scrap yard.
Hi David thank you mate im glad you enjoy it. I save what I can. I can’t afford to save them all but do what we can mate.
Boring?? Your vids are never boring!!
Thank you mate
Hope get it going again love Vids of your stuff bud loving your process
Thanks Alex
Used to operate these things on the council for years. Good little tractor. I’m having a laugh every time you grab that “oil “ bottle. Keep that bloody thing hidden at barbie time 😅😊🍖🍗
Hi Mick yes they are a good little tractor mate. The sauce bottle makes a great bottle for oil, great for what I use it for
Steve, nice to work on something that you dont have to crawl under. No hood in the way, table top height. Gotta be a real pleasure working on that. Wish i was closer, id take you up on reparing the cabs, building a bonnet etc. Im pretty good at that work. I wouldn't disappoint you. Really like to do something with you sometime. Time for me to start working on my Ford. Floors are rotted, AC not working etc. Great video. Jim
Hi Jim yes not a bad job at all mate. It would be good to have you help do some stuff. I can do it and get it done, if it was my only truck then it would be easy but I have to many things going at once
Definitely not boring cobber. Very relaxing watch with a cupla cold sandwich’s 🍻🍻
Thanks Kory. I’m glad you enjoyed mate
I reckon Great Northern Brewing Company should sponsor you......There's one of their stubbies in the background in every video 😁😂🤣
That would be the ultimate mate. I hope they read this
greetings from England
Greetings from Sydney and thanks for watching from over there
G'day Steve. We all have our dreams and we are lucky to be able to chase them in this country. I'm living mine and loving it cobber. No mate it wasn't boring, love it as usual.🤠
Gday Daryl sorry for the late reply. Exactly right mate. We need to have dreams and im no different, I just share them with the people that may be able to help them come true. Thanks as always mate
I worked in Fergy parts during school holidays as a teen, 135s were the current model and seemed fairly bullet proof, considering the area that garage covered we had a service van equipped to split tractors on farm for major repairs the two tractor mechanics werent very busy, my memory isnt good enough to remember the inlet parts if I ever sold any
Hi Bryce sorry for late reply. You would certainly know a bit about them selling parts. You get to know something by looking at parts all the time. The mechanics wouldn’t be busy because they were too good of a product to break down too much I’d imagine
Gday Steve, that’s a bit weird why that cap blow out, it would be fantastic to see some sponsorships jump on board, it might pay to reach out to a few companies and see how ya go, no harm in asking mate, great episode, cheers
Hi mate. Yes it keeps blowing out too. As we speak it’s done it again. I’ve brought some heavy gasket material home to have another go at it. I have thought about reaching out but im not that sort of bloke either mate. See what happens
Thanks for the videos mate!
My pleasure thanks for watching mate
Nope not boring at all Steve,. You said about the bigger channels, not sure about things to much to really be able to comment. What I can say is this; I watch you, and only a very few other channels I bother with, actually repair any vehicle to good in every aspect. Extremely knowledgeable who really know their stuff, I watch, enjoy and more often learn something. I'm not a mechanic by any means but have messed around with stuff since i was a small boy, but not as much as i would have liked. When i see some channels however, I wonder who and what counts as following, because damned if know why. Do the "so say" subscribers actually exist?.
Hi John and apologies for the late response. It’s hard to get on to all the comments. I’m really glad you like it and it means a lot. It keeps me going comments like this.
It’s beyond me how those channels get so big when mine isn’t a whole lot different and I try so hard, but that’s just how it works.
I certainly don’t know everything about this stuff but im certainly not scared of attempting it either. I like having a go mate. It’s how you learn. I’m sure you learned a lot from playing around. More than you think actually. All the best as always John
Yeah music in the back ground is always an issue. I have a set of cheap ear buds for music while recording, and tinkering in the shed. You don’t have to have it too loud if you’re coming and going etc. another great video man thanks for sharing
Hi mate, im actually watching your episode on the Mack muster while I came across your comment. Is that weird or what! Yes I have those earbuds also but keep forgetting about them. Thanks for watching mate and my pleasure
@@stevesplacedownunderoh I hope you enjoy. Love your content and the other couple of guys saving old gear. Great to see wish I could do the same
Yeah it was good. My mate organises it along with a few others. He has the red Flintstone that you climbed up on and showed inside. He had 4 others there too. All the best mate thanks
@@stevesplacedownunder oh correction I didn’t climb up on it, GoPro was on a arm. I wouldn’t climb on someone else’s gear without permission.
But she was a beauty. I wish I knew it was on earlier, passed down trucks heading south on the Hume Friday and one said on the Ugg that it was on. But it was a great event
@Aussie_Truckie_On_hwy31 all good. I’ve never been to it. I’m not a huge Mack fan. I have nothing against them but I like seeing all different kinds when I go to shows like that. It’s always good to have a look when someone films it though
Not boring at all. My come in handy since we have a lot of those here in the USA
Thank you Joseph. It might mate yes. Glad you liked it
Love these videos, only just discovered this channel, you can thank Bruce In aus for the shoutout, you gained another sub 👍
Hi Keith sorry for late reply. Thanks for coming over and having a look and subscribing. I will thank him next time we speak on the phone. He’s a nice bloke.
Mate of mine rebuilt a 35 petrol model he rescued after it caught fire Gold frame I did the grey for him, red only happened after the merger with Massey Harris
Awesome morning brother and sister from another country another awesome adventure as always brother I miss working on engines and and Ole iron doggone health problems have just about got me down but still kicking just not as high 😂😂😂 pray yall are having an awesome day say hi to everyone for me and as always enjoying the adventures 😊😊😊
Another great video. It’s always good to see you and the family. Lately you really have a lot of irons in the fire! I hope the sealer does the trick on that leak. Calling the sealer on the thermostat housing porridge made me chuckle. See you on the next one.
Thanks Geoffrey and sorry for the late reply mate. It’s hard to keep up with the comments. The sealer didn’t last either. Still leaking as we speak
I've seen quite a few of these old things kicking around, fairly popular with the vintage machinery crowd.
Regarding youtube every creator regardless of genre struggles with the same issues on their channels (even the big ones). As an extreme example one channel I watch has half a million plus subscribers, 1 video will get 100,000 views and the next will get under 5,000 then 20,000 the video after that. The 1 thing everyone seems to agree on is it's way harder to make a living out of youtube now than it ever was, more than a few have chucked it in but I hope you're able to make a go of it for a while and knock out some of the bigger projects.
Hi mate yes they aren’t a rare machine by any means, just old and great.
It is hard to do this RUclips thing indeed. It’s beyond me how those channels get so big. I try so hard and don’t think im a lot different to some of them but it’s just not getting pushed out there. I won’t be stopping anytime soon but it does take its toll sometimes
Not boring at all mate, very interesting vlog 👍
Thanks as always Martin
Hi Steve, I lke the birds and cicada background noises. Suits my tinnitus better than any music.
Thanks for the feedback Paul. I like it too mate. I’m certainly used to it by now
I have a 35 over in Scotland 🏴, I think the combustion chamber caps should all be the same
Hi mate. I thought the same but they are not for some reason. Thi middle one is machined differently in the head. Why, I have no idea
hay Steve from up north stinking hot here to mate the heat can handle that but the humidity is through the roof as well any way liking the videos and some i have caught up on your an honest man very modest as well i like that you are saving some of these old treasures and such don't know how you do it as you have a young family as well hat is off to you now one thing i am doing with help of my Son is doing a shed clean out i know i have a shit tin of bulbs and lights for the older trucks trailers and such if you would like them ill take some photos and send them to you then if you would like any of them ill arrange to get them to you that is if you wont them as would be a shame to toss them have little to no use for them there back from when i use to do some work on the very thing you are doing it's hard to do anything now i have lost the battle to keep my left leg she had to go from halfway up my thigh worst place as its dam hard to get a false leg and be able to walk big adjustment i hate it but that's my life and problam enough if you won't the lights when i send the photos say so and there yours my way of helping out Big Cheers mate
Hi mate im sorry for the late reply. It’s hard to keep up with the comments. Thank you for this great comment also, it means a lot to me. It’s very hard to do it with a full time job and a family of 5 but I do enjoy it, although sometimes it gets to me a bit.
I would be very appreciative of the stuff you have there mate. I’m honoured to be offered it. Send some pics yes by all means. The would certainly get used. I think the email is in the channel description. We can talk further there if you like or instagram or Facebook under the same name. Steve’s Place Downunder. Look forward to hearing from you
@@stevesplacedownunder yes will get them together soon as its hard for me to do shitt with out help but some time in next week or so ill contact you and get an address to send to I know there's some there and of no use to me any more all sorts of but even some air line stuff
Cheers its a way for me to help as don't have spare dollars Cheers
@wallbawden5511 very much appreciated mate thank you 🙏
I hear your frustration Steve. Not sure when you recorded this but your subs are 23.5k as i type. Can you film a bit at work? That would be interesting too. Hope one day the channel can support you and the family. Cheers Evo.
It was a while back mate. January actually. I can but I don’t really want to be filming too much while getting paid. I’m trying not to include too much stuff from work. People may subscribe just for it when I can’t do to much of it. I hope so too mate
😊
Hi Steve
Hi mate
I’m like you, Steve. Gotta have tunes when I’m working! My wife doesn’t understand it. She likes it quiet when she’s doing stuff. But yeah, RUclips will get ya for sure for copyright.
It depends what im doing. Through the week at work it’s mainly talk back radio but im in a better mood when working at home so it is good to have some going. Especially when the beer comes out
Steve, I've never seen anyone use sandpaper to clean up the the mating surfaces like that. It cleaned them up pretty quick too. That's brilliant. What grit did or do you use? Love your videos man, I hope you don't slow down any time soon...
Hi mate. You just have to be careful using it because the grit can come off and contaminate the job, but works great. Very effective. It’s a fine and a coarse aluminium oxide paper. It doesn’t come apart like normal sand paper. Exactly the grit I can’t remember. I won’t be slowing down. May have a rest sooner or later but won’t stop yet
Another fine production mate . You mum is just doing what grandma's do. Feed the kids , make 'em happy load 'em up on sugar and send them back to home . All my grandkids are grown now . Hopefully we will have some great grandkids turning up before too much longer. Take care Steve, and all at your place also ! Scott 🌵
Thank you Scott. Yes mate she says she loves them more than her own children. It’s convenient having them live here. Thanks as always and all the best to you and your household too mate
Getting there my project s need fix two pull string and find body shell for Carson nitro
Good video Steve, did you see the 2 Chamberlain cranes that Brookdale Farm over in West Oz posted on RUclips. Thanks for sharing.
Hi mate thank you. Yes I did see them. I hadn’t watched the channel for a while but I caught up on it
Rotten beggar! Nice little cliffhanger.
Good day Sir.
Hi mate
Hi Steve
the clutch problems , may need to adjust the bolts on the pressure plate. bareco and sparex
Hi Andrew. I set them up to what I believe was spec before fitting it. It works fine, just a sweet spot to engage the pto
Any source for those indirect injectors new? Here in North Carolina US my local wants 300.00 to test and rebuild them. I just let the thing sputter; seems like it smooths out when it warms up
I get most parts from eBay so it’s easy with postage and PayPal. There is a set on there for the 3 cylinder brand new for $148, for the 3. Australian dollars
Hi Steve first 🚜 I drove a 35 it must be 45 years ago scary thought mate
Hi mate. It is scary im sure Nick. I’m nearly 40 and sometimes I wonder where between now and 21 went. So fast
Wating for the oliver video
There’s one on us bringing it home
How your trucks and tractor s
Yeah piss & ebay too handy look next day wow i buy that yo
Yes that’s right Ron 😄😄😄
