Checking the Antifreeze in our old International Tractors

Checking the Antifreeze in our International 574. International 464. Farmall A. Plus or vehicles.Getting ready for cold weather. Gerraldfarms

Good deal man and something everyone should know how to do but once thing is do you know what the Honda uses for antifreeze since I just went threw that not too long ago and learned that a lot of the import cars use a Organic Acid (OAT) HOAT which do not mix well with the old kinds at all. I found this out with our new case tractors use a OAT type and when you mix with the old kind it turns to pudding

Did you paint that tractor?

[@GerraldFarms]

Yes sir I painted it with my father in law about 10 years ago. I need to start redoing my tractors. Have a good one

[@farmerpete]

Good idea. Not checking can be an expensive mistake.

[@GerraldFarms]

Thanks for watching. Yes sir you are right. Have a good one

I'm a bad boy.... We don't check antifreeze like we used to. When I was a wee lad, the old man was so tight with the green paper, he didn't want to waste any green liquid!!
BTW, we didn't buy jugs back then, it was by the barrel...
We tested everything!! Drain enough out so we could get enough antifreeze in to get it down to 10°-15°... If we hit 20°, that was close enough! Never froze anything... Luckily!!!!!
Finally I told him we should get everything 50/50.. and only put it in mixed!!! So, that's how everything is now, keep it good to -34° and smile when it's -15°... Instead of waisting fuel when it gets that cold.
Thanks for the video Jacky!!
I might actually check a few things as we have them running 😎😁

[@GerraldFarms]

Thanks for watching. I’ve seen them freeze and push the freeze plugs out. I’m not that lucky.lol. It would bust the block. Have a good week

[@GosselinFarmsEdGosselin]

@@GerraldFarms ya.. I'm not that lucky either... LOL.. so we would start them, or plug in the block heaters and cover the hoods so the radiator would make it... Or dump the water out.. was always a pain in the @$$!!!

[@SLCFarms]

Don’t know that I’ve ever checked the antifreeze on anything good to know.

[@GerraldFarms]

Man it only takes a few min. Could save a lot of money. Have a good one
