- I'm back to work on the Farmall MD restoration today. I've got a bunch of little problems to solve and a bunch of methods to try to solve them. Maybe this will work, maybe that will work; I'll keep trying until something works! Today I'm going to get out the stuck injector precombustion cups, install the foldover locks on the connecting rods, and install the rear main seal at the crankshaft.

Almost 100k subscribers, Congrats to the best farming channel!
It's ashame that puller didn't work. You just proved there is more than one way to do things. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
While watching this I kept thinking that if it was only 2 cylinders that you'd be done by now.
I must say, when you put your head to something, you don’t give up till it’s done. I’m impressed, best channel on RUclips.
The Happy Puller tool didn’t make the puller happy! I wanted to whack it with a whammer! Aaaaaaaaaaagh! So satisfying when it finally came out. Thanks Pete for sharing!
@ 2:26 I was about to make a comment about Squatch and new fold-over locks, but you beat me to it Pete! 😂
good job ,like i tell my son patience is a virtue
I just overhauled the engine on a brush cutter. At 69 I don't enjoy overhauling engines like I used to but I do enjoy watching other people doing it 😉👍. Back in the day I would tackle any engine.
I can't have a farm but I love your videos. Thank you
any inserts or plugs etc - weld shrinkage is always the best answer. I had 2inch bsp threaded plugs to remove from 12 cylinder heads off a Blackstone Engine. so welded 24 mm nuts on them - every one came out - where the manufacturers were recomending returning for maching out !!! Nice work.
That "Right Stuff" is the right stuff to use. Thanks for the motor work.
Good 😌 job Pete on the pre cup.
Another great video. I like that you didn't give up.
-Steve
Great display of farmer ingenuity.
You have a lot more patience with inanimate objects... those cups would have had me cussing up a storm! Great video Pete. Really appreciate the work you put into it.
Really enjoy your videos !
Unbelievable patience. I would never try fixing old diesels.
Another great tutorial Pete. I may never get around to doing any more rebuilding of any engines. (78 now so time is of the essence!) but still enjoy watching you work on yours. and the solutions you come up with are applaudable!. and ingenious .thanks for taking the time to make the video and better yet for sharing.
Great shout out to Squatch. I always get a kick when a youtuber I watch references another one I watch.
The happy fun puller set. 😅🤣😂
Put us through pulling out the other cup? Haha. I love this stuff. Feel free to bore me with this content. Ingenuity is hard to find and you’ve got that in spades.
Tom Maggliozzi used to say, "If you get stuck due to lack of ingenuity, you know who to call." Haha, got to love Click and Clack.
Agreed. With those skills, he could moonlight at the local technical school.
I agree! Bore us? We are all enthralled. Loved the video.
Great job it's looking 👍👍👍👍
Can’t wait to see this baby al together, painted and doing some work! Keep up the great work 👍👍👍
Get a rosebud .warm the casting with your puller in place and ready to go . Then poor some cold water in the hole and pull at the same time . The temp differential will give you a few thousandths difference and maybe they will pull easier . The dry ice is good . But it cools the entire area . You don’t have to use to much heat . Just good and warm . The ice water as you are pulling will work . Most of the time . I know you are probably done with this project . I wish I were there . 🙂
Always enjoy learning,you are very determined to have excellent performing engine.Very dedicated to a through rebuild of a vintage tractor.Your enthusiasm is contagious.
Squatch would be proud!
Well done Pete.
Hay Pete It worked.Good job.
Sometimes spending money on a tool that is made for the job, and it don't work. Ones own simple thinking gets the job done. Now that is satisfying. Thanks Pete, I love watching you think things through when doing it. Now you may have given another fixer upper person an idea. Iowa is watching :)
hello I enjoy your videos so much I love everything about farming
And the old equipment into antique tractor pulling for many years
And collecting so please keep those videos rolling out and some pretty good corny jokes
I am looking forward to seeing that tractor running and doing some work on your farm. You are doing a great job and it should be a great success. You are making sure that everything fits as good as you can make it and I bet you will enjoy your tractor for the rest of your life.
Another great video I like how things are coming together ! Persistence pays off !
Greetings from Berlin, Germany
That Right Stuff is expensive but it's really good. I used it to seal a leak in a tractor gas tank years ago and it's still holding.
Being a novice at mechanical work (call myself a You Tube Apprentice) I usually run out of ideas before I run out of patience - then I run out of patience. Well done!
I've wondered where you got your talent and skill in all things mechanical, coming from an engineering background. You seem to be a true jack of all trades-master of none. Please inform us
Dry ice to pull those pre cups......rather like putting new freeze plugs for one's engine into the freezer for an hour or so before putting them in. Happy Fun Puller Set ROTFLMAO!!!!! Your final solution was ingenius. Well done. Daddy would be impressed. ;)
Great video and problem solving!
Hello how you guys doing? Ok just discover your channel a day or so ago , my god i love it so much ,love the scenery the buildings ,your tractors are so awesome , like the fact that you take care of your equipment on your own it's almost a lost art loll . And how can i forget your sense of humor keep it up . oh ya say hello your wife as well wife .Take care
Great video Pete!
Excellent video
Thank you for sharing.
This is something I learned from my father and am grateful for for his lessons. Never give up and keep working and thinking until you solve a problem. Love this channel
Excellent! Pete 👍👍👏👏
Great video! As usual. :-)
Great job on tractor repair!
As a former plumber and backyard mechanic, I'm a big fan of the Permatex products. If you have a leak that defies fixing, use Permatex. It won't leak again, but the next guy down the road that needs to take whatever apart will truly curse the day you were born.
pete youre close to 100k
Great seeing you get the stuck injector cups out. I wouldn't of left them in there either. Full rebuild still means full and you just can't cut corners if you full life out of the rebuild. It's going back together really well and I can't wait to here come back to life.
Great job buddy glad you’re getting it closer to running again take care buddy thanks for sharing
You inspired me! Your book arrived today! Thank you.😀😀
Pete says phooey and wowie when the camera is recording... Wonder what you were saying when camera wasn’t recording... lol! 😂 You’re a hulluva mechanic buddy!

Lots of progress on the MD Pete!! Congrats on getting those cups out!! It was interesting to watch, and what ended up being the success to remove them!! I’ll admit, I would like to have a diesel tractor in my collection, but the expense working on a diesel rocks me to the core! So, I will stick to gas tractors I guess. Have a great day Pete!!
These videos are simply amazing and very helpful to understand the life on your farm. The educational part is also very interesting and keeps one waiting for the next video. My 4 year old great granddaughter sits right beside me to watch her tractor/farm show. Please keep up efforts as they are much appreciated in our home.
Well I'm impressed. Good job on those pre cups! Little stuff like that I can make a project take forever.
Phooey is not the word I would have been using!!🤣
Bravo Pete!👋👍
Those things have a reputation ....never easy to get out.
Yes! MD content! Not that i don't enjoy the rest :)
Oh really enjoy your channel
You’ve got a lot more patience than me, I was pulling my hair out watching you remove those pre cups! I hope the rest of this work goes smooth as silk! Stay safe Pete and always be awesome 😎
Very interesting on your trials and ideas to pull the cups out, but finally success. I am really enjoying the process of the great MD being rebuilt and restored to its glory!
They look a lot like the injector cups on the 7.3l powerstroke. You use a pipe tap to pull those out
Cut slits in it with a Dremel tool 7/8 of the way through the cup and then tap the cut with a nice sharp chisel....have to do this with bearing races every now and again living in the salt belt
When you started these videos it inspired me to get working on my 1948 Ford 8N. Definitely appreciate the push to get it done, still needs paint and bodywork but it runs amazingly now. Love all of your videos
Alot of times if the ID and OD on the sleeve will work you can weld a bolt to the top of a tap, screw the tap into the sleeve and attach the slide hammer to the bolt you welded and pull it out. It has worked for me in the past - from a retired Machinist
Persistence pays off good job Pete
Great job coming up with the solution to get those injector cups out!!
Your ingenuity is amazing!
What no Pop culture. Glad you are getting it back together. Looks great 👍
Good thinking to build that puller and weld it into the cup. Perseverance !
Nice job getting the injector cups out. Been in there all those years they were gonna be a bear to remove. Welding the washer to it was a great plan the heat breaks the carbon loose and the weld will shrink the metal no way it was not coming out.
Awesome!
Almost 100 000 subs! 🚜😀🍻
Pete, next time you ship something heavy like you did, the post office can ship it for under $20 with priority mail. It can weigh up to 70 pounds. I use this on my ebay sales. I know that you said your shipping weight was about 75#.
Only if it fits in a flat rate box
@@duett445 this, is of course, a prerequisite. However, as long as the box you are using has a close size, and not a flat rate box, a flat rate label will do the same thing on that box.
On ford powerstroke Injector cup we use a large tap that has a threaded hole in the end of it & a slide hammer to remove the cups.You would need to measure the bore of cup & fine the right tap.
Glad to see the project progressing, I had been wondering about the injectors and pump . You must have read my mind. Keep up the good work
Yeah, I'm a bit skeptical about using an expanding tool to get the cups out of the bores. Kind of like using a vice grip on a nut & not being able to figure out why it doesn't turn. Just adds an unwanted force. Now that they're out, on to bigger & better things. Regards!
Great video keep up the great work
Love your videos. Excellent content and great production I'm always impressed. Please keep the great content coming.
DYI.. amazing,, great job in figuring out how to do that.
How do spell your name?...INGENUITY! My gosh you just keep at a problem till you figure out a solution! Amazing!
It was time for a small reward, the silver button is nice for sure but a piece of metal stuck in a cylinder head and your many years of doing and watching and everything associated it became a matter of pride and you did it.... no small task. Quite proud of your work as I did this for a living an can't pack your water anymore. I was at the point of if in same situation, put the china brand puller down in that hole and then weld it to it solid and then pray to the gods of grease it came. Doing it my way kinda has that side affect of I have more junk in that hole so now what senario. Am I to assume that those cups would come out easier if it didn't have a half million miles on it so the carbon not as thick or does it form right away and its in the time and labor manual of "fifteen minutes to fifteen hours" to get one out and go from there. A fine job that you've accomplished
Great video. I loved the reference to Squatch.
Pete you are going all the time. Make time to take a break every so often for a few days if possible. Have the kids do the chores. Recharge you batteries.
Hi Pete great video. Thouse copper washers I heat up red hot then put in cold water so there soft to reuse. Is that what you do? Good job on getting precup out. Thanks video have a great day.
I don't know if your videos make me more or less confident about doing tractor repair lol.
Pete, I'm glad that my suggestion of welding on the cups worked. Between the two of us we got them out.
excellent
I just ran into the same problem on an in 2504 with the d188. I soaked them with carb cleaner then blaster to soften the carbon and kept using a drift and hammer to shock it and break up the carbon. It was a long tedious process.
For dry ice, see if you can flood the valve seat area with rubbing alcohol or acetone (any liquid that doesn't freeze). It distributes the cold more effectively than air does, and will help shrink those metal parts. A bit of aluminum foil gives a 'good enough' seal to keep the liquid medium from flowing out the other end.
You have lots of patience
Make a round nut on your dad's lathe, and weld that into the cup. The nut could have pretty big threads for the puller.
Edit- I see that you basically did that. Good work.
For the dry ice trick, warm the head up first so there is more temperature differential?
I hope you didn't make squatch's eye twitch
I do like how you got that pulled out of there.
Nice job, looks good, you do a great job at explaining the process, those pistons look reusable
Pete, don't know if you have tried it but if you heated the cups with the touch and let them cool then try the dry ice and puller again, it may loosen them
Gotta love when the hail mary's work!!! Nice work, and getting things back together quickly, now!
I would put the head on a hot plate & use the dry ice after the head gets hot . to shrink injector pre cups . did this to replace valve guides all the time .
Dry ice is a great idea!! Wouldn't thought of that. Sublimation is key to this.... CO2 isn't water.
Excellent video Pete :) well done on MD engine repair and yes glad got stubborn parts out on head work also they take time to do! Well Done 100 Suscribers for watch do in video to each time and plus when can too!
