  • What started out as a project for me and my son, and expecting it to take a "year or two" turned into a 5 and a half year project and counting!
    When discussing the project, we decided to create a video diary, which quickly turned into the creation of a UA-cam channel. The rest as they say is history!
    A significant milestone; to get the tractor running is upon us and with some trepidation, of course we capture the event on video for you to experience as well.
    So - will it start?

    Congratulations! It is always a relief when they come to life. Now comes the fun part with the little fiddly bits.

      Hi Lance, thank you! Thanks too for your support on this journey! Oh for sure, lots of fiddly bits, but first lots of painting! 😊👍

    There is nothing more satisfying than to hear the engine fire up. Well done mate.
    Our TEA20 is working hard after its well deserved engine rebuild 12 months ago. The Australian delivered Fergy has been with us since 1980.

      Hi Kerry, thanks. It’s good to hear yours is working hard, these engines do seem to prefer working! Now we’re looking forward to getting to that point where ours can go to work too! 😉👍

    YAHOO, Good Job. The engine starting after an overhaul is a great sound. It makes you smile with satisfaction. My project is now three years along and still moving forward. If I'm lucky the tractor will be in the local Canada Day parade this year. TTFN/CDC

    Are you running with points and condenser or electronic ignition?

      @WaterhouseForde  2 місяці тому

      Hi, we went straight to electronic ignition. The distributor that came with the tractor was not correct so we had to get a new one anyway. 😉👍

      We got it running okay, good enough for the trials. I’ll get it dialed in properly when we do the final assembly.

      😱 that’s a good trick! 😂 I’m not sure how or why that would happen. I expect the crankshaft is biased to only run in one direction. Did you get it running okay? What was your diagnosis?
