Nice! Great detective work!
Thanks! Once you tear it apart once the second and third times aren’t so bad lol
That smile was well deserved!
Man wow yeah that thing has been fighting me 🥴
25:47. The best part of the video.
I have a soft spot for the 600-800 series fords. Twice the tractor of an 8n but still a classic and parts are plentiful.
Yeah so much cooler than 8n
Proud of your tenacity, it was glorious to hear it start up 👍
Thanks!!
Nice job on the rebuild, now you just need to get a muffler on it and do final adjustments. The sweat and oils on your fingers is enough to make tight tolerance pump internals stick if you aren't careful . I was hoping she'd fire off on a small shot of ether, I've been doing diesel tractor motors for over 30 years. It wouldn't be the first time I've had them real close to running on the starter and they won't quite kick off . There has been the odd time I didn't have any ether on first start of an old school manual shift transmission tractor and just given them a short tow . I was buying parts in a shop where a perfectionist mechanic worked years ago, he flattened 2 batteries and near burned a starter and it still wouldn't start. it was close and he was convinced something wasn't right , and certainly wasn't going to give it a sniff of ether as that's all bad. I said tow it it's own length and it'll go He told me I didn't know anything it should fire right up on the starter, he'd been lucky his whole career until that day I think. After another 15 mins I said you've got nothing to loose so he did it. Yeah looks like I did know something after all, with all the best measuring in the world you could be on the tight side of tolerances. Or have not quite the right amount of compression to get it running that first time. Thanks for sharing ,Take care
Thanks for the support! She starts ok no ether now, funny how you have to shock them to wake them up eh?
First smoke reminds My Fordson major first start after decates
Someone probably mentioned it already, but any time you have through holes into a coolant or oil passage, the bolts need to be coated in RTV. Likely what is causing your water pump leaks. Keep rocking buddy. Good work! Oh…and if you search “injector copper washers”…about a million come up. Go on size, not application.
Yeah I didn’t know those bolt holes were through actually until I watched chicken house mechanic. Put some goop on them and we’re all good now!
Good job.. Keep up the excellent work and attention to detail. All of the cleaning of everything, replacing things that are broken, torquing to spec, researching the right way to do it before doing it if you are not familiar with it, and so on…is what will separate you from the bulk of the web. I will continue to follow to see how things come along!! Love the machines.
That happy face when she kicks off
I owned an 851 Diesel at one time. It was a great little tractor. wish I would have kept it
Tyler, great job! You were almost at your wits end, so I was cheering you on. Awesome video. It will be a stunning beautiful tractor with the metal on. Love it! Thanks.
Thanks! I guess if It didn’t test me I would get bored
that just smoked up my whole living room! 😁
I think my garage still smells
Congratulations!!!! Great Job!!!
Thanks!!
Would like to see it when you get her running smooth and no smoke 💨
You rock keep up the good work. As for the leaking coolant. Most of the holes on old school stuff are not a blind hole they go into a water jacket. They usually need some type of thread sealant.
They did indeed! Thanks!
Your work on this fine tractor is so cool! 😊 I could see you driving it in parade soon.
Copper washers used for connecting brake hoses might' work for the injectors. I can only assume they are sold in different sizes. I usually keep extras in my shop as I replace brake lines a lot living in a rust belt state. Hope this info helps if the injectors don't seal or if needed on a future project.
Watched the hole series and boy when it fired up I had the biggest smile on my face 😂 so happy for you well done 👍
Boy it was a struggle but it was worth it!
copper washers , heat to cherry red to anneal cool and use.I still get that look on my face when the project starts and runs! So well worth it!! Good job!
Thanks!! Good tip on the washers
It’s running! Great
sure teh inside doors to the house are air tight and amazing ventilation for the garage
Harbor freight for copper washers . They sell a multi-pack
Huh that’s good to know 🤔
Way to preserve!
well done
Good job, stay positive, those are great tractors and in the end it'll be worth it!
I had faith in ya . 👍
Awesome! You got it!
Whew
Congratulations man im just getting ready to run through my pump and fix the issue i created repairing it only difference is that I didn't rebuild it i just spent 2 months of soaking and working at it to unsieze it and got it free and all so hopefully it goes as easy as yours did
The best advice I can give you is don’t be scared of them they’re easy and as you can see if you can take it apart once you can take it apart multiple times lol
@@dieseJL ty I'm not scared of them I went through it already but I didn't set up the plungers correctly so not enough fuel coming out the high pressure head. Easy to fix just sucks I have to tear it down to get to the adjustment
Next time, heat those copper washers with a torch until they are red hot. Let them slowly cool and that will anneal (soften) them for reuse. Old mechanics trick….. Judging from all that smoke, it’s seriously over fueling.
Good tip on the washers!!
ty. good for you. a man's job.
Thanks Russ!
Attaboy Tyler.
I'm fighting the same fuel issues on a IH B-414 now.
Nice job. Persistence. Hard, but you did it man.
Thanks! It’s worth it
Nice job ty...dude your patience is unbelievable. Think I have watched every video. Michigan fan here. That thing sounds great.
Did it start again without the juice.? Cheers
Michigan loader fan…? Hopefully not wolverines 🤣😜
nice to here some noise out the old ford.......🚜🚜🚜
She’s smooth!
Yes, yes, yes, Woo Hoo!!!
7 PM at the mango farm Samchuk Thailand. All I can say is " Yea baby"
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Let's Geaux!!!!
Congrats you need to turn exhaust fans on before trying to start!
Nice job there. Need a little bit of tuning but you're getting there. But next time throw some heat down the intake in a fire up every time
Like with a blow torch?
Maybe a heat gun would be a better choice! Just a guess, a useful tool and cheap to buy.
@@dieseJLblow torch will work, propane not acetylene. I've used a old rag with diesel. Just gotta make sure the rag doesn't get sucked in.
Hard starting could be because of low compression from over grinding the valves. Or needs a valve adjustment
Also, if you had to do all over again, knowing what you know now....would you do it? Thanks!
Your smile says it all.....when's the next one going to start ? hahaha
Next one as in 977??
👍👍👍
Fantastic well done I have full admiration for you 100% 😮I just can’t do no way would I have the patience.
Yeah I just go work on something else when I get mad hahahah
You could use a turbocharged if you could
Where can I get a window fan with red blades like yours?
I’ll sell this one to you for $19.99
😃😃
Congratulations.
It seems It's need a little bit advance
Foreshadowing 🤔
@@dieseJL 😄😄😄 Just keep going.
Best regards from Lanzarote. (Canary Islands)✌️✌️✌️🤘🤘🤘👍👍👍

Great Job on the tractor! How much did that restoration end up costing you? What was the charge from the machine shop to do your engine? I am planning on doing what you did and would like to know what it is going to cost. Thanks! Jim
I probably had 10 grand into it all said and done. The engine work was about a grand and then I probably had another grand in it in parts. I would do it again... I would be better at it next time though. I do not think about the money I spent as wasted, I think it's a hell of a tractor for that price. I will get my money out of it.
"Intrestingly" is not a word.
Think you're on the wrong channel. Think you are looking for @The Proper English Use and Spelling Teacher Channel. Thank you for correcting something that wasn't necessary in the slightest bit, especially on a video about rebuilding a diesel engine in an old tractor.🤦♂️🤔🤷♂️🚜
@@tdotw77lol. Well said!
well done - but it does sound like one injector is hanging
I think she needed some advance. Stay tuned!
It RUNS! Now tune it....!
Yeah!!
Well, you won't have any mosquitoes around your place.
@DieseJL Is this Dejavu? Am i wrong or isnt this mostly the same video as your last one? Feels like i already saw all of this video!?🤔🤷♂️🤔🚜💨👍👌
I guess the last one just didn't get the views it should've been getting. Interestingly this extra dose will help boost your view count. I'm patiently waiting for the next video 📷 in this series - when you get it adjusted & tuned properly, so it's running 100%🔋⚡💥💨🚜👍👌🛠️🔩🔧👨🔧⚠️🇺🇸🍻
Oh lol I usually upload them a week or a few weeks before then schedule them. Then I can proof them. That one was ‘unlisted’, not sure how you found it? Maybe through the playlist. So yes it is, but I didn’t release it to the masses until today. You got extra credit I guess 🤣
Give it a shot of ether, and don't turn it over so long. You'll be buying a starter!
Yeah I was like cranking then waiting half hour because man that thing was warm
What did it cost you? You work your ass off ,lots off parts. But its its very nice tractor there a good machine .
I maybe had 7500-10000 into it said and done
dieseJL, it runs, butt doesn't sound good. next time maybe run better..
It sounds out of time.
You would be correct 😬
