Part 4. Now we have a very interesting video, today we are going to start this baby up, after all these years.
The tractor is a Bolinder munktells typ 10. 20hp 2cyl two-stroke crude oil engine. Made in 1947. BM10.
Part 5 will be about making the tractor complete with the hood and all the plates, panels. New tires and a long testdrive, putting it to work!
//Richard at Yesterdays-Machinery.
Separate injection control for each cylinder means that in a postwar world where everything is scarce, it could be run on one cylinder, as it briefly did at the end of the video, to possibly conserve a bit of fuel at the expense of losing half your possible power. In a time of great scarcity this might have made sense when the workload was quite light, or just moving it around. It's so nice to see these old machines working. They were made to run forever, or nearly so. We need more people like you to keep them alive!
They still use seperate injection pumps frequently today.. Unit pumps they're called.
My girlfriend only has one injection point. I told her she has potential for more.
I’ve really enjoyed this series, your explanations, and your wrenching skills.
Being from the United States, I’m unfamiliar with your two cylinder, two cycle tractor, though I’m well acquainted with various models of John Deere’s two cylinder, four cycle tractors and engines.
Thank you for taking us along on this adventure, and I’m looking for future videos.

Hi and thanks for those words! Yes these are quite odd. But really good machines back in the day. The front is only 28cm wide. So very good sight, and good torqe. /Richard
@@YesterdaysMachinery those gaskets don't seem to be tight
I see you run these on diesel these days. But what did they run them on back in the day? Kerosene? Lamp oil? The old low grade gasoline? In the states back in the early 1900's we had "tractor fuel" that was somewhere between kero and the low grade early gas. So Europe kept the hot bulb diesel while the states had switched to gasoline engines (then to glow start diesel for big engines)?
The old Swedish "Hot bulb engines" like the ones on my channel and this tractor run on Crude Oil back in the days. Thats why they called Crude oil engines. But it wasn't just crude oil directly from the ground. It was cleaned and separated from water etc. So like a thicker form of modern diesel but with lots of sulfur and other bad stuff left in it. But it was very very cheep back then. Almost free if you compared to kerosine, or the very expensive gasoline. So this tractor was a bit unmodern when it cane back in -47. But fuel was almost free, and it didn't use much fuel. And it was very durable. Never broke down, lasted forever if you just maintained it.
Your mastery of the english language is second only to your mechanical ability. Well Done!
Haha, yeah... First video I saw I though to my self this is some one from down south. But the surroundings looked wery much like Sweden, hmmmm...
This is an amazing series so far. I have really enjoyed the pace and your attention to detail. Well done.
Thanks! Many fun projects will come! /Richard
Love that you’re rebuilding and getting old engines like that running again man, I’d get into it if I wasn’t so busy building all of my stuff. I do plan on it one day! Even steam engines!
I hope you will. /Richard

I'm glad to see someone doing their bit to warm up the countryside, lovely old girl. Well done that man. I think it has heaters to start, are you going to fix those, I could see one was burned out. There are no electrics so I am a bit confused. Take care - Regards.
Hello! Yes there is glowplugs. If i will fix it i have to make my own plugs from scratch. no parts available for it. Yes there is electrical. Everything is there but in bad shape. dry rotten cables and so on... / Richard
These machine where made to last and this one is good for another 100 years thanks to you. Your knowledge is priceless, good work.
Thanks! /Richard
This 2 stroke diesel with hot bulb ignition did not used ignition system but a preheated red hot component and compression to burn the fuel.
No magnetos and spark plugs, no carburator.
Similar tractor brands where:

From the early 30's to the beginning of the 50's
A great job with this BOLINDER MUNKTEL
Congratulations!
Hey Man ..That Tractor smoke like my 1974 Vega station wagon back in the 1980's .But I love it
So your Vega also had a total loss oil system then? Hehe.
Nicely done 👍
Your a rare breed, not too many people fix things these day's they would rather buy new, I like old stuff as it was made to last.
once warm she starts as easy as a modern tractor, and will still be running long after the modern is gone and scrap
So true!
As an antique machinery lover from the USA, I find this tractor design fascinating.
Yes, i don´t think there is any other tractor that is simular. ofc 2 cyl hotbulbs excists but this design is quite interesting indeed. / Richard
I'm really enjoying your rehabilitation of this tractor. I wasn't familiarwith this particular technology prior to this project. 👍 Well done.
Thanks alot! Regards Richard
It was common for air intakes to be close to the ground on a lot of early designs it took some time before the engineers realized that was not a good idea.
The airfilter is down under, yes. But the air is sucked in from a channel under the instrumentation. / Richard
@@YesterdaysMachinery Aaa, better.
Now that you have it running, please restore that tractor. I would love to see it fully finished. It is awesome.
Well done! Nice old tractor and still useful today. I admire that things like this were built to last. My oldest tractor is a 1947 IIRC, still working, can still get most parts for it!
Yes, they sure knew how to build cast iron machines back then! For these modells there is no parts available.... / Richard
If you run water with acid in the cooling system it will remove the rust, after when its dry fill it up with gas mix st with some clear silicon to seal it, run it a bit to make it go every where and drain it,let it dry with caps and hoses off for a day , the system will be water proof and it wont rust any more.
well , i worked days on my old 'Oliver '55 super , clean this , fix that , rewire this and rewire that ... not counting all the welding i had to do for steering , and reworking the 3 point ... all together about a week , and it still did not function as well as your older tractor ... well done my man ... eh
1st time i seen an oil burning tractor other than the usa Bigboy 4017 Train converted to oil burner
I know that my iPad speaker is not great, in any case I was surprised how quiet the tractor is. Must be the exhaust system muffling the sound. I enjoyed this series of videos. Thank you for creating them. 🇨🇦
Excellent job! A lesser man would have scrapped the poor old thing.
I can smell it from here; hot old oil on the engine, years of caked-on fuel-gum, the rich aroma of old stuff smoking away. The vibration and noise, creaks and rattles.
When it has all bedded-in, I'd like to watch it doing some work, and see if the exhaust clears and burns clean.
Well done again.
Yes, i will make it complete and test it first. Then i will put it to Work! / Richard
What a great piece of history, wonderful to see it running again, and thank you for sharing the story with us. I enjoyed watching your series on it.
I hope you will go a step further and repaint it, it would certainly be worth it, perhaps you have already, as I am new to your channel I may not have found that yet.
Gday, a mate of mine let me know about your channel, this is the first video I’ve watched and certainly worth subscribing, beautiful old tracto and it’s great to see history been saved, cheers
Hi! Thanks mate. Happy to hear that you like it. Yes this one really needed this. High prices on these to now here in Sweden. A complete one that not starts is around 3500 dollars. +1k if it runs.
Can't ask for a better first start than that! What an awesome machine :)
She sounds good, great job!
What a great little project, and I just love the way it starts right up. It runs so well despite the corrosive nature of all the previous by products of burning crude oil. The work you put into this certainly paid off 👍
I’ve really been enjoying your videos. It’s neat to see other people on the other side of the world interested in the same things I am. I recently started doing a UA-cam channel with my old tractors as well. Keep up the good work!
Thank you so much! Yes i checked out your channel and subed, seems interesting. Will watch the videos later!
I too love old/ancient machines! Good job. Thanks for the look into the past.( Off subject; where are you? { Country}🤔)
Hi! thanks :) Sweden. /Richard
A small suggestion: when craning any older engine, it's best to cup your hand around the crank versus grabbing it with your thumb around it. Ford Model T's were known to backfire and could break an arm if you didn't. A great old piece of equipment!
Hi! Yes that is very important. BUT not on this engine. Because this crude oil engine is made to backfire and then start. As you can se i am cranking the engine the wrong way, so when it backfires the crank handle goes the other way from my hand so my thumb is safe. But on really any other crank start it is important. Thanks! /Richard
It looked like you cranked it counter clockwise. I was expecting clockwise.?????
I bump it on compression, then it fires and starts in any direction it desires.
I love the sound of that engine. When your used to diesel tractors, that one sounds more like a hot rod than a tractor. I just love old equipment. With a little TLC it almost lives forever. Looking forward to watching your next project.
Yes it has a interesting sound! :) / Richard
It is amazing what one can do with just a few simple tools. Unlike the new stuff that takes a computer and a whole boat load of tools to work on. There is just something satisfying about making the old new again...
I hope at some point you get the electric starter, glow plugs and charging system up and running. No more blow torch! :)
Yes, but that will be a later consern. i have checked the starter, works but needs new coals. And the rest of the cables need to be replaced. Then i have to order cables with fabric insulation, not modern plastic ones. But the blowtorch is half the joy :)
Well thank you for a truly fascinating series. I have never heard of this kind of tractor but your knowledge of them is simply encyclopedial, and your English is much better than mine---but that's because I was born and spent my first half century in Yorkshire UK and now live in the Emerald Isle. Best regards from Ireland.
Nice job!
How much of a chance is there of a kickback when cranking?
Zero, it always kick back. thats how you start it. you bounce it on compession and it backfires before the pistons is up and start at the oposit direction. There is a mechanism that trows out the cranchandle when it fires. So not like you ordinary cranc start on the Ferguson for example. If i remember i will explain this in a video! / Richard
Get a sheep's hide to throw over the metal seat, i have one on my nuffield and it turns the backbreaking seat to a heavenly kings throne compareable to the most pricy Grammers airseat
Yes that is a must. Remember my dad always had a sheep`s hide on his 1950 Ferguson when i was a kid.
FIrst - Skip ahead to hear the beast run.
Second - Thumbs up!
Third - Go back and watch the rest of the video.
Fourth - Be impressed.
I love the simplicity of those old designers. We have a problem. "A cold engine won't start". ANSWER - "Easy, we'll add a blow lamp".
I just love this stuff! Swedens answer to Mustie1...😎👍
Hehe, THANKS :) / Richard
Det ser ut som om min T22a har ungefär samma bakvagn som BM10.
Japp det är precis samma. Detta är 1947 Bm10 dock, och där skiljer en del emellan ändå. Men efter 47 är det samma. /Richard
I had yet to hear a two stroke oil burner two cylinder run. The jugs seem too large to sound like a mini bike. I just bet it pulls a ton if that transmission holds together with the bearings laying under water. Can't hear it growling though so may still be good. Way to go on getting this thing running. With that three point hitch I want to see her till some dirt.
I dont think there was so much water. The gearbox is fine. Actually the most quiet one ive heard on these modells. Always ratteling more or less, but this is totally noice free. / Richard
It was a great video, I do not know what was wrong with the two people who gave it a downvote, they must be really grumpy, or crazy.😀
There is always something to complain aboute ;D Many seems to like it anyway :) / Richard
Well done Richard. Thank you for the videos!

At frame 29:55 i noticed your horse was not impressed..
They were very happy aboute the first start attempt. They aways do that when a engine about to start.
Watching from 32N64W BERMUDA. Soon starting to restore a BLACKSTONE Hot Oil , single horizontal cylinder engine. Was first installed to power a large salt water pump
Wow what IS this thang? TWO cylinders! FAST reving, HYDRAULICS! DOWN UNDER exhaust! BLOWLAMP start, WIERD cooling setup .....Is this the swedish chef of Sesame streets fathers tractor? I have a few strange beasties (marshall, bulldog, Imperial etc) but this gem takes the cake! great effort ! thanks from New Zealand!
thank you for saving history. great hobby. from Michigan USA
Thank you! Richard- Sweden
Thumb#4701.
Cheers.
Love your videos and the old engines, absolutely mesmerizing. Enjoy watching true repairs of the day, not modern upgrades wow.
i am strangely addicted to your channel AND I LOVE IT :)
That must be a good thing! / Richard
These machine where made to last. But the front tires won't last long. They are made in my country, 32 years ago, maybe earlier.
Don't rely on Victoria tires, they're too old.
Keep safe!
👍👍👍
Super good.
I've never even heard of these machines, let alone seen one.
Love 2-stroke "diesels".
That's exactly what it is a big old two stroke that thing's cool
Good job on that
Thank you! /Richard
Ahhh the days when your farm hand had to wake up 20mins before the driver to heat the engine and start it
Outstanding job! Nothing like bringing old machinery back to life. Glad I found your channel. J from Massachusetts.
That traktor belongs in a museum it’s beautiful
That tractor sounds really nice! How many speeds does the gearbox have? Can that engine run both ways like the earlier hot bulb engines or is it only meant to run one way like most other tractor engines?
Is that the original steering wheel? It looks exactly like my 1950 Dodge Power Wagon complete with horn button!
Yes, it is original gor this tractor!
c est un vrai plaisir de te regardè réparé tout ses antiquités ,,,,tu es tres bon ,,,,bravo
You sure don’t want to take that patina off that traktor . She is a beaut.
Nope, that is what i love aboute these old gems. The patina and all the history. /Richard
Just one complaint .
The audio level of the GRINDER is way to high and is quite a painful experience when wearing earphones.
Besides that a wonderful video to watch.
I know it´s a bit late but to break in rings the thing needs to be loaded, big. Otherwise a very nice tractor, a sign this thing should wear:"All serviceable parts inside!"
Put a trailer with a few tons of wood behind it and make it pull! Run it around for a day and all´s good. These things want to work. Desk duty is for grandpas ;)
I know Bolinder from boats, a sweet sound it has, it sounds happy!
Ultra Cool old tractor, just beautiful thank you mate!~ Respect from NZ : )
Hi! Nice to hear from NZ! Take care! /Richard
Nice craftmanship on an old BM heavy iron horse 👍😉
All Cast Iron, except for the pistons ;)
Richard, your creating awesome viewing 😀 I’m finding I have developed a bit of a man crush on you 😂😜😃
Love your work. What is the year of manufacture and what is the horsepower please. 😁👍🏻🇦🇺
Beautiful. Even far from Sweden, the ABA clamps are the best
I can see now how the World War II era farm boys dealt with the new mechanized military equipment, this was the type of fiddling around they did growing up.
We don't need no stinking syncros!
You have skill & knowledge, an impressive combination.
Mycket bra
Every time I watch one of your videos I think of the books One Second After and One hour After. When the world goes to crap an eccentric such as your self becomes a celebrity over night.
Good video
So, you're a Swede? Ever think about a couple drops of oil in the ratchet head? A very nice old traktor. I thought it ran on crude oil but you said something about diesel. Runs on diesel too? Cheers from eastern Tennessee
Awesome video Brother….love these old tractors and Engines!
Cool project. Gotta get you to invest in an impact gun, saves a lot of time. I would have thought diesel technology and electric starting technology was more advanced in '47 which was after the war. Or was this tractor just still using really old technology?
Great job the tractor that sounds like a motorcycle 👍👍🇺🇸
Love the format - something especially soothing about watching all the work being done sped up. Great content. Subscribed !
great 👍
Remember to hold your thumb clear when starting! The machine can kick...
I love working on the prewar era engines . Had a 35 IH c-1 pu i got running after sitting sunk to the boards since 59 in a muddy cow pasture..i drove that car around town for a few hours or so
Cool !
It's amazing that this can run on crude oil. Imagine not having to refine crude oil at all just put it in the tank and drive away. So much more efficient than what we do now. Do you know of any material on the history of crude oil engines?
🇮🇪👍👍💕🥰🙏🌷
hope all is well with you and yours..and really hope to see new content in the near future..you are amazing and fun to watch wout BS music or pining for cash every ten seconds..peace.
Where the heck do you buy crude oil these days?
Dont know if you can. But you can run it on pure diesel. Its better anyway. Burns cleaner and doesnt fill the engine with coal and sot like crude oil does.
Munktells traktor, det eneste jeg har, der står Munktells på, er en velvoksen drejebænk.Nå ja,og så Volvo 320 eren, der står jo faktisk også BM for Bolinder Munktells på.
You should run marvelous mystery oil in the oil and fuel helps keep everything clean and lubricated
Jag har en 49a T22 som jag köpte för att jag behövde en billig traktor. De är lite illa sedda, av någon anledning.
next video, tractor donuts!
Yes, sad tho that you will miss it, Non-subscriber ;) / Richard
Nice to see the old girl going and not to the bone yard.👍
Hey,i'm from Morrocco and i like to move working in usa, can you help me to find a job over there plz
I'm really surprised that actually has a 3 point hitch AND working hydraulics! Nice job Richard.. a gasket for the header pipe on the exhaust and you'll be good to go. I'm really impressed how easily it starts once it's hot enough.😉
Yea...what is the year of this tractor? I was thinking pre WW2 but maybe not. Some adopted the Ferguson hitch, and others (IH) pushed their own ideas till they had to switch.
Thank you! :) Yes in the next video we will fix the small parts. / Richard
1947. Firs production year. A bit unmodern allready when it came but was economic and never broke down so it became very popular here in Sweden. / Richard
@@YesterdaysMachinery Just post-war. I think they produced them up into the mid-50s, even after Volvo bought the company.
I had a 1939 farmall model M that ran very good and everything worked great but I got a bad bout with cancer and had to sell it and really wished I had it back.
23:03 Its alive again... Fantastic machines they built in the past in Eskilstuna. 👏👍👍👍
Yes, lots of cast iron ❤ /Richard
truly amazing,nice to see a younger person with knowledge and abelitty to be able to get the tractor going
Thank you 😊
Have you installed valve guides on the front wheels yet. I saw that hoses were inserted without them. Mostly so that no dirt gets in between the rim and hose, for safety reasons. 🧯🩹👍😉
Hi! No i have not. But i will, cause one on the valves is a bit twisted as well 😊 But holding air anyway. /Richard
Pretty insane watching those faster come out without any struggle anything I would work on of even half that age would have broken every other bolt
Invest in a brass hammer to use for jarring pieces apart. Less chances of damage. Also, a vacuum cleaner would help get loose frass out of a lot of places. Just a couple of thoughts...
Yes i do own one. I gave vacuum a chance, but didnt work. to much is left in narrow spaces. faster wit air and just bruch of the floor later.
I can't understand why the fan belt does not fling water up as it runs through the same chamber as the water pump? Isn't the bottom half of the fan belt submerged in water?
