    Growiing up on a rice n bean farm in Southwestern Louisiana in the 60's, 70's, and 80's its awesome to see y'all bring these old tractors back to life !! We had International, John Deere, Moline, and Case tractors, also John Deere combines !
    Yeah I subscribed !

    The 8700 & 9700 are killer tractors! My grampa ran a 7700 the 4 cylinder version. That would be a killer pulling tractor!!

    Ever since you started this Will it start series you've been my favorite youtuber to watch. Seeing all these clapped out mint traptors reminds me of my grams's collection of super ms and case 730s both wide front and skinny front. Both gas and desiel. My family still has them all and all run. I miss you grams. RIP Alvin Helmer

    We got a Ford a little bigger than that with duals on it, we used to use for disking ours has a turbo on it, motor was good it would just lose power in the field, it would be running fine and just completely quit pulling, we had a mechanic come work on it but couldn’t never find out what was really wrong with it so we just parked it, it’s been sitting up and hasn’t been cracked in bout 17 years, thanks for the video guys

    • @brucecollom8947
      @brucecollom8947 Год назад

      Maybe your tractor will run better after having a good 17 years of rest. I can't believe they got that tractor running with little effort. If I had an old tractor, this video would certainly motivate me to try and start it. If you do try it, please video and post your experience for comparison

    This is the 6.6 Brazilian, based from the 7.8. I love it how a few issues like the odd block porosity manifests itself into "Horrid" problems. Lots of these engines were used in Ford medium duty trucks and busses. 750,000 mile engines!. Built in Brazil at the same factory as the PowerStroke.

  • @trentsmith3672
    @trentsmith3672 4 года назад

    The clicking rattling sound at idle is normal for the 8600 tractors also. I have been around several. I think the noise is normal engine cycling. There is very little difference between the 8600 and 8700 tractors. Your 8700 sounds great. I hope this helps.

  • @bigbear568

    Those old fords from the 8 and 9000 up with that same basic engine and drivetrain make excellent pulling tractors. The Forrester pulling team from Pa has pulled them for years very successfully.

    Amazing 4 tractors that have been left to rust and rot away, and your out here just resurrecting the dead. I fuckin love seeing y’all do this, I guess maybe it’s the challenge of seeing if it will run or not. And when it moves under its own power is even better. Definitely enjoy this more than trucks tbh.

    Man, you must have a family member or really good buddy that works for interstate batteries. I live in Houston, Texas and here interstate batteries are two sometimes three times the cost of your standard no name brand batteries. Both equivalent in amps and warranty and in my 20 years of trucking, also in quallity. Just my two cents. Keep up the good content, and keep the videos coming.

    On the Ford 8700 you have to put the high and low gears in the middle position and you have to let the brakes build up on those tractors

    I had a Ford TW 10 with the nice factory cab that resembled the John Deere sound guard cabs, bought it brand new and ran it 20 years without any issues whatsoever , FYI it holds 20 qts of oil in the engine,unlike this one that was miss treated and looks like it's been through a WAR ours looked like new when I sold it, pulled 5X18's & also an 18 foot hyd fold wing disk,with the way that tractor looks it goes to show how good the 401 Ford engine is, POOR THING 😰, with what stuff costs I could never understand the mistreatment some folks do , thanks for saving the ole girl from the crusher, it that was made back in the mid 80's, it takes a 4DLT battery BTW.

    I have a 9700 ,do NOT use dot3 in the brake system it will eat the seals out. Ford/NH has a mineral oil you must use for their brake systems. 8700 & 9700 were built 1977 thru 1979 but continued useing the 401 all the way up to the 8830 by adding an intercooler

    I think that is a valve rocker, because when you revved it up the clatter never increased like a wrist pin would. Take the valve cover off and see what is going on with the lifters. Sure it will smoke right off because the rings and valves don't work right right off when cold starting after sitting.

    keep getting into bigger tractors and your going to need another battery to go with the one you got and a piece of cable to connect them
