great sounding 165 in my oppinion its one of the best tractors ever made and this video proves that despite its age it can still carry out modern day tasks
The Mk2 had the 4 212 which was actually less smooth running than the 236 (As fitted to 175 and 168 tractors) which was the same bore as the 212 but with a longer stroke. Interestingly, the 212 was also fitted in The IH 475 which by all accounts had a lot more poke than the 574 with the IH 239 engine!
Ey-up, enjoyed to see the 135 & 165 doing what they were made for. At the time the "RED GIANTS" came out, I was in my second year of apprenticeship at a Massey Ferguson dealers, 135 was first model to be delivered, put away out of sight till after Smithfield show, but we found a way in to have a gander, we were taken by the fancy bonnet and all its clocks, but older mechanics soon saw it , they were nothing more than a MF35x with the fancy bonnet and clocks, The first 165 was slightly more different to the last 65's, being the bonnet and fancy flat top mudguards........Where as opposition's new range was completely new, the one's painted blue.......
Yes iIthink so, the previous model with the earlier engine one of which I drove ( a 1966 model) regularly for about 2 years when I was 16-17 had the exhaust pipe on the other side. It was a very good and reliable tractor, a wonderful starter in any weather, mine had no multi-power, no power steering and as is usual for Massey Ferguson tractors around this time virtually no brakes, but then, who needed brakes ! I worked for a contractor and we had lots of Masseys, 35's, 65's, 175's,178's, 185's,188's and a couple of 1080's. All good tractors with the the Perkins engines apart from the 1080's which weren't one of the best Perkins, suffering from common head gasket failures.
Hi. I have a model just like that, Massey Ferguson 135 made in 1978, can you help me with some clues (or some indications) how to approach the problem regarding the below problem. My tractor haze a problem with hydraulic system. It's lifting the plow or other weights with the tie rod (three point hitch), but when I stop the engine, or when I push the clutch pedal the weights are going down. If there is nothing in the tie rod and I stop the engine the tie rods are staying up for one or two days, time in witch they are slowly coming down. Can you tell me if this problem is occurring from hydraulic pump (valves etc.) or it's from hydraulic piston (the segments of the piston head need to be changed)? The rest parts of the hydraulic works ok, the pto is also working fine. One thing I noticed that when I start the tractor and I lift a plow (for example), it's lifting it more quickly when the oil inside is cold and it's taking a little longer to do that after I'm working (plowing) with the tractor and the oil temperature from hydraulic system is higher. Thank you verry much!
I'm no expert but it sounds like at the very least you have a leak in the hydraulci system or a tired pump. Would probably be best ot get it checked out by a professional
That will depend on the ground conditions, would be best to try lower gears first and see how you get on before trying higher ratios one at a time until you find the optimum working speed

That first job that the 165 is on, did anyone else call that "dragging" back in the day?? Wonder if might just have been a local word, so to speak.
They still call them drags in Lincolnshire!!
