Very generous gesture by QTP supplying these parts 👍 it's a company I had forgotten about to be honest they don't seem to advertise as much as some other parts suppliers 🤔 actually thought the tractor sounded really well when you took it for a spin 👍 good video 👌
This tractor has had the 1970’s HSE upgrade kit comprising of footboard extension plus a vertical shield to mate with the bottom front of the mudguards, plus remnants of the old dynamo belt pulley guard. A fixed PTO guard was probably part of the kit as well, but may have been factory fitted to 35X.
Great to see the old girl fitted with some new gear Dan, very decent of them guys to send you the bits and pieces, also very interesting to watch you fitting them Dan, you know you're stuff around these old masseys, 👍
When I was a young lad, many years ago, I worked for F H Burgess. 1981 we were moving depot and I was given the job of emptying the stores cellar (new old stock Massey Ferguson parts) into a skip. It was sacrilege as I had a 35X at home in need of some TLC. Yes, the parts were all dumped
Hi dan always love your channel! I see it's The old case of new parts not fitting right, and having to modify, which we shouldn't have to do! I would have got the old clock repaired, to keep originality, as it's lost it's history of running hours, and the the new one's don't look the same! I try and source original parts as much as possible, for the reason of not fitting right and the look!
Trouble is with lots to fix how mutch do you spend on a single item, I can't imagine getting a tacho restored is cheap. The reproduction one looks a fairly close match, I'm fairly picky and it wouldn't upset me.
@@paulf2529 Well yeah i can appreciate that, but it's kind of same with needing a recon pump or injectors, it's expensive! the new guages and a lot of spares now are made for a number of makes of tractors, and not individual to one make, and don't often fit! I fitted some wing skins to my te20 years ago, they are not made the same shape as original, they don't have enough over hang over top bracket, and pulling them up against brackets distort wings, have seen the same on other fergys too! the alu thermostat housings are shallower than the old one's too, i really don't know why in the 21st century we can't reproduce the same copies, to fit right! but yeah i guess the guages are not bad, just can tell straight away not original as they don't put made in england or type of tractor on dial, but again this will be because they make a gauge to fit many other makes to make it easier for manufacturers!
Don`t forget to cut down the silencer to match the original length before you put the tractor back in it`s shed or you will be needing a new exhaust manifold next !
Yes, it's definitely a 35X. Multi Power was an option on later versions but was never a standard fitment. This one is too old to have Multi Power fitted.
It would be highly unusual for the clock to sieze. What I would have done is file a nail square so it fits in the back of the clock and turn it with a finger and thumb firstly, then with a cordless drill. The original would look much better than the replacement.

Really good of QTP to help you and parts look great quality.
According to the new clock the engine is allready running it looks.

That’s good of them. Enjoyed that. 🙂👍
Great video again Dan good to see companies supporting your channel

Good video Dan, nice to see the 35X getting some new parts.
Think you need to empty the Water out the Fuel Sediment Bowl 🤔
I will now always quantify Jaffa Cakes by feet and inches!
Matt Buckley a genuine man.
Lovely little tractor to be fair 👍👍
Great video dan , lovely little tractor.
Wonder if they do parts for a 698… mostly a full cab 😆🤦♂️. Some great little touches on the 35x does mean I expect lots of work from it this summer😁

Shame you didn't park your van next to the skip ? Oops, missed the skip 😁 again,
@peterobey491 ..... In those days I only had a Yamaha 250
Wonderful of them to send you the parts, enjoyed the video as always, thank you
Great little tractor, love the 35x 👍
Pick up a nice weather shield cab for her Dan
Better off with the original tacho than that junk
Excellent video Dan - Great that QTP have been so generous. The 35X is sounding and looking good!
Generous of QTP Probably came at a good time as landwork is totally out of the question at present.
Great video Dan. Enjoyed watching. 👍🏼👍🏼
Could I purchase the original 35x clock that you have removed please?
Hi Dan a 35 was the first tractor a drove i enjoyed the drive up the road brought back some memories 👍
Great video. Love a 35
Why does the clock not rest at zero

Hi Dan great video as always, love the 35 series your doing, when is the cylinder head gasket replacement one coming out ? Keep up the great work

Damn, I was hoping for Jaffa Cakes...
And how many Cricket matches do you have play Dan to pay off the 35X, 3000 ??,
👍👍
Where can one get good headlights that don't fall off after a year with rust as the ones out there on the market are very bad quality.
Are you sure it is a 35X as the multipower slider is usually on the right hand side above the high/low gearlever but I could be wrong ??
Yes, it's definitely a 35X. Multi Power was an option on later versions but was never a standard fitment. This one is too old to have Multi Power fitted.
nice of QTP to send those parts pity they don't seem sell on line .
You have to buy through a dealer.
Am I right in saying with the new clock your PTO speed will be wrong and the road speed max will be 24MPH
I haven't sorted the brakes yet so can't confirm what the top speed is.
Why didn't you test the ORIGINAL tacho with an electric drill turning the cable before you replaced it ?
Could you spare a minute to explain how that would be beneficial?
Then I'll know for next time.
Thanks.
It would be highly unusual for the clock to sieze. What I would have done is file a nail square so it fits in the back of the clock and turn it with a finger and thumb firstly, then with a cordless drill. The original would look much better than the replacement.
@@CowfarmerDan The answer below mine cracked it.... Why replace things that aren't broken ?
@@michaeldelany2105 Yep ..new tacho looks shite to be honest.
