- This is an introduction video on a TEA20 tractor that we are going to demonstrate an in frame engine rebuild on.
Sparex have offered the parts to do the job free of charge as they have done on other videos.
Im not sure how many videos will be in the series it depends on what we find at the time.
There are a few other jobs on the tractor that will be included on the play list like front wheel bearings and replacing the steering wheel etc.
Here is a link to the Kangaroo Stew where I bought it and got it running.

In South Africa they are called Vaaljapies, in Afrikaans, the story goes something like this, a Tractor Salesman sells a Grey Fergie to a Farmer. Tractor is delivered and at the handover, the farmer tells the farm worker to unhitch his two Grey donkeys, ( Vaaljapies), And hook up the new Grey Fergie ( Vaaljapie) to the implement. Roughly translated Vaaljapie would be something like a Faded Jack. as in Jack of all trades just like the versatility of the Grey Fergie. Thks for this great series.
Good story, thankyou.
I just got tasked with fixing up a TE 20 that was owned by my great grandfather. I am glad I came across this channel, I can tell it is going to help me a lot. Thank you for making these videos.
Welcome aboard!
So my wife will tell you that I bought a farm so that I could drive a tractor all day.😁 But my 1952 TED20 Vaaljapie is my most prized posession. I love her to bits (the tractor) and she never lets me down, Your videos are great and have definately helped me on the odd occasion. Keep up the good work, cheers from South Africa.
Thankyou, Glad it helps.
So glad I found this, wish I found it in lockdown. Keep up the brilliant work
Will do thanks.
In it's present shape we can see a little bit of what they had to do to run it on a small budget. Simple and effective farm tech. Thankyou for the view of the past.
Thanks Clayton, I like that sort of thing myself.
Just started a project on a 1952 TEA 25! Looking forward to watching every video in this series.
Ill have to try and stay ahead of you.
Hi Lance, about a month ago I decided to have a look at our Ted 20 which hasn't been started in about 15 years. It's a 1953 model that's been on the farm from new and is in original condition, no dents or dings and I'm pretty sure the engine has never been touched (checked with an old neighbour, I'm only sixty one!).
I discovered your shed around the same time so I'm on the same journey with you as my guide.
Jerry
Sounds good welcome aboard, Im a bit slow with mine at times as Im just a busy bloke.
Hey I just got a 1952 t e a, to fix up and I'm going to watch your whole series
Go for it I hope it helps.
@@BundyBearsShed thanks I'm really enjoying it so far. I'm in Canada by the way so your videos are helping people all over the world fix their tractors.
Hey Lance, your videos inspired me so much, i bought a 1949 TEA myself yesterday and i will try to bring it to life.
Tom, 25y from Germany
That is awesome!
Hi Lance ,firstly hope you & your family are all well. I have a TEF 20 1952 , over the years been watching your video they have helped me out so many times .it's been a complete strip down now she's looking stunning thanks again mate 🚜
Thanks Craig, Hopefully you get something from the new series.
@@BundyBearsShed Good afternoon great New series .Really enjoyed watching your video 👍
G’day from Tamworth Lance, good timing this series as a TEA is my next project! Cut my teeth turning spanners on theses and 35s (plus David Brown 885s and 995s), our family grew potatoes and these were just right for the high country. My very first full-resto was Dad’s 1951 TEA 20. We converted the electrics to 12 volt using a Falcon starter motor and Bosch alternator. Stupidly let it go and would love to find it again! Love your videos and your business, always been good service on the bits we’ve needed. Which reminds me, I’ve gotta do the CAV pump on the DB885, better order a kit. You’re right about mixing hobby and work, living the dream!
G Day Luke, Sounds like an interesting time you had, The falcon starter is interesting to me.
Bundy Bears Shed the starter was an easy one if I recall, literally just a small modification to the mounting plate hole. Would have been and early 70s falcon six (we did the conversion in the early 90s), just a starter motor from the wrecker
G'day Lance, I am glad to see that you are well. Working on tractors in the shed does not expose you or us to Coronavirus.
Much better than seating on the couch watching the TV with "Sky is falling down!" news. Not downplaying the pandemic and its consequences, but it does seem that urban living is more dangerous these day.
Thank you for giving us an example of purpose and hope for the future.
Thanks for dropping by its better than the telly thats for sure.
Having just picked up 2 TE20s...a 53 and a 55 ...I reckon this series is going to become compulsory viewing!
I hope so, I did an earlier series on a barn find TEd20 as well.
Hi Lance, my 1954 TED arrived yesterday, your video's sure going to come in handy. In South Africa they are
Sounds great, I hope they both go well for you.
G´day Lance. Been following you for a while and this series I look forward to 👍🏻 I have a 1954 TEA myself here in Norway, it belonged to my grand grandfather and the plan is to restore it as close to original new condition as I can 😊 Using it for snow removal and moving dirt and having fun driving it 😀
Sounds great! For some reason the TE20s get way more interest than other models, very popular little tractors.
Hi Lance From Narre Warren Vic, well timed I just found a MF 35 I think a 1957 which had sat in a paddock for some 28 years covered in blackberry's and moss, so I will be looking forward to the future series and I agree leave it as I found it. Cheers
Thanks, If your 35 is petrol I did a bit on my gold one in the FE35 playlist that might interest you as well.
Hi Lance - Looking forward to following this new series - my favourite tractor and coincidently it is the same age as me!
They are a popular little tractor for sure, Im a bit suprised at all of the interest.
@@BundyBearsShed I grew up with them and the MH780
I cant wait... my 47 is a fun project... been watching your other videos... thanks very much... they have been a massive help!
Thanks, Glad you like them!
G'day Lance I'm really looking forward to the series on this little tractor, when you say patina you mean rust, anyway mate great and I'll watch it regards John
Yeah that lovely rusty barn find look.
Here I was thinking I was going to try and rebuild my TED20 by myself. Can't believe how many people are coming along for this ride with you... looking forward to supporting with buying the parts thru your store. Cheers. Excited to get this done
Thanks, I hope you get a few tips, well if Im doing my job you should, lol. Happy to sell the parts too.
Looking forward to seeing you rebuild in frame
Thanks David I hope you enjoy it.
Hi Lance, absolutely great project, the TEA was a “world” tractor so many many are still around and your video’s will be helping them out.
Yes, you are right, you can only restore a tractor once and then you are afraid to use it.
I have an Allis Chalmers FD3 with a 2 cilinder aircooled diesel engine. Absolutely love it the way it is!
Good luck on the series
Cool, thanks! 2 cyl air cooled would be worth a look.
Thanks a bunch for doing these videos. I recently bought a 49 TE20 and they are a huge help when I go in to fix the leaks and what not. Really looking forward to learning more.
Glad to help
Looking forward to the series Lance. I see the CAV video is about to crack a mil any time soon! We are in lock down currently so have started stripping my clapped out 135 Multi power so have spent hours watching your videos to gain confidence :) hopefully I get a chance to split it. Both axle trumpets are off and I have freed up the diff lock shaft thanks to your video. Cheers from NZ
Yes the 1 million views is a big thing, who would have thought! I need to get into the back end of my 135 Multipower yet but with Sparex coming on board again I thought I better give them some value for money as well.
Nice little Ferguson! I am looking to pick up a TEA20 project in the future, so these videos will be a great resource. Thanks Bundy!
Glad it was helpful!
Hi Lance. Great little introduction video.
A lot of people looking forward to this. Some helpful info about the changes in specs from your notes at the start. (I did not know how to tell the different bore from the water pump)
Learnt something already.
👍👍👍
Thanks, Glad it was helpful!
I’m also looking forward to this series. I’ve got a TED I’m rebuilding at the moment so your tips and trick will come in handy. Thanks so much for putting the maintenance manual and illustrated parts catalog on you web site. They will help a lot.
Thanks Richard, The idea is to help everyone to work on their own gear with confidence and have that feeling of satisfaction with a job well done at the end. If Im not careful I will make a few bob along the way.
Brilliant! Ive moved onto 20 acres and would love to get a little project like this going.
They are fun to do, Im finding that finding the time is my biggest problem at the moment.
Very excited to come along for the ride Bundy! We've got a '52 TEA20 that's probably overdue for an in-frame job at the very least. Hoping to learn the ropes well enough to tackle ours up in Ontario, Canada.
I hope you get something good out of it. If I do my job correctly you should.
I just got a TEA20 the same year, 1954! We're getting it up and running. Good timing! We just got it slashing with a 4 1/2 ft slasher but she's tired. Looking forward to see this progress. Cheers
Sounds great! Welcome to the ride.
Hello Lance, I'm certainly looking forward to this series. I have a 1948 TE20 that I'm still using on my land but hope to overhaul the engine next winter.
Sounds good Dave I hope you get something useful from the series.
Looking forward to watching. Great job Lance 👍👍
Awesome, thank you!
Were the big tractors not common in Bundy? I don't see many 100-200hp tractors at your shows you go to.
Not until the 80s probably, you could make a living with a MF165 and 60 acres of sugar cane back then.
Hi Lance. Thanks for all the videos, I look forward to your new series. My tea 20 with Hovard reduction gear built in must have a new engine block, frosty. I get great pleasure from your new series and something from the old ones. It is only in the EU that there are resident reduction gears. Best regards from DK
We did have the reduction boxes and the Howard reductions out here but they are not all that common and good to find.
Love this just what i have mine is a 1951
Great little tractor!
Good deal and I'm looking forward to this video series we also have a 1952 and a 1954 to30 made in Michigan with a z129 continental engine
This will possibly be similar but being the Standard Motor Company engine Im not too sure if it will all be the same.
Hello Lance, this is perfect timing for me.I have a 1949 TEA20 up here in Ontario Canada that needs your help. I'm looking forward to this project.keep making these awesome videos! 😃
Thanks Tim I hope you get something useful from the series.
Absolutely beautiful patina to it!! I’d say use an oily rag to preserve it
I was wondering how to keep it that way. I was thinking Penetrol or similar.
G'day Lance,
Perfect timing! I just started my very first 1952 TEA20 rebuild project here in Ballarat. Looking forward to the new series. Great work mate.
Cheers Matt
Welcome aboard! Matt, I hope you enjoy the videos and the process on your own tractor. Need parts give us a yell.
Just what I’ve been waiting for. Will be with you all the way. Thanks so much🇬🇧Mick
Awesome, thank you!
Looking forward to this one Lance - do my bit to tolerate the adds but thanks for the tips tricks and catalogs and be looking forward to buying some gear from you soon - got a couple of barn finds myself and I'd like to see them running at least before I move them on to someone who wants to do the whole make over...
My pleasure!
Looking forward to this, hard to find any cheap basket cases around here as you seem to have them all lol. Sparex TEA20 seems like a good title...
There is a diesel at the scrappies in town here for $1000 looks straight enough.
@@BundyBearsShed I'll take a look, timing is bad though just upgraded me computer.
i have a 1949 TEA 20 TRACTOR sn TE 81025
my question is, On the distributor the coil nut on the distributor is facing the block and was like this for years when my dad and Granada used it. they are goon now and i am trying to get it running. All the tea20 i have seen on line the nut is on the other side facing out. it has no fire i am wondering should i turn the distributor back to the original. hope you can shed some light on this thank you
Yes I would but you may need to re do the distributor timing.
Another great video Lance! Coldn’t been better then this series. I was going to do my -53 TEA engine, so this is perfect👌🏻
Great to hear!
Interesting, looking forward to the series👍 it would be fun to see it run before you fix it😊
Here is a link to the weekend I go it and gave it a bit of a run. Its towards the end of the Stew.
ua-cam.com/video/c_hawsjcm6I/v-deo.html
I am about to purchase a 1951 TO-20 and I was wondering how similar that one is to the one you're working on? I'd love to watch your videos on your experience but I want to make sure I'm getting information that would be beneficial in my first attempt at working on a tractor. I've never owned a tractor and so my 15 year old son and I will be delving in together on this one.
G Day Nat, The TO has a different engine Im afraid. Probably a continental I am thinking but the rest of the tractor would be the same.
Sadly I got rid of my TE20 although they really aren't suited to hilly blocks. It's incredible for the age of them how many are still around. Really a beautiful little tractor though.
I agree with the hilly block comment. they are certainly a popular little tractor though.
Nice proget buddy thumbs up, 👍😁🍀☘️
Thanks 👍
Hey mate , ive picked up a 56 ted 20 petrol and was just wandering how close it is to a tea 20 ... for working on comparative to your videos . Hoping there isnt much difference ... also love your vids mate 🚜👍🐻
Almost exactly the same. The tank and fuel cap are different and so is the head a little but everything else is the same.
Legend mate , guess ive got more watching to do lol .... thanks again
Thank you so much for this informative video, you have answered so many questions that I have wanted answers too already. Mainly how to determine the correct overhaul kit for my TEA 20
G Day Chris, Im glad it was helpful. If you get stuck the bundybearsshed@gmail address is there. Im away from it from Friday afternoon to Tuesday but I try and catch up then.
Keep up the good vids Lance!
Thanks, will do!
Just purchased a TEA20 - 1955 model - It is painted gray - wondering if they were gray originally? I have seen some painted red a well
They were all Grey originally.
Hopefully you’ll have a workshop manual for the TEA20 soon as well. Please show how to adjust the clutch as well. Mine engages just as I finally release the pedal..
There is the TEA, TED and TEF20 workshop manual here on my web site. www.queenslandtractorspares.com.au/technical/
Good day from Ont. Canada Many yrs ago we had ferguson 20-85, what is difference ? it was 1954 with davis loader. You can put a car distributor on tractor. So I should 15 sec of ads for you to get some money. Sounds good to me , you know some goe 3-4 mins. long. Thanks
Thanks Don, They tell me anything over 15 seconds and we get paid so no need to watch the long ones, I dont know the difference with the 20 - 85 it is not one we had over here.
I have a 1952 TEA20 Ferguson tractor; where do I find information on the right kind of motor, transmission, and hydraulic fluids needed for it?
Look on the web site of your favorite oil supplier and they have a lube guide usually.
Hi Lance, I’ve been searching and searching trying to find the correct oil to fill the transmission on my Tea20. Very confusing and was hoping you can steer me in the right direction ? Some say same as the engine oil ?? Any advice much appreciated ya. Cheers
Dont get too hung up on it. The engine was a straight 30 and the gearbox was a straight 40 oil from factory I believe. The more modern tractor back end oils will work fine as well. I would suggest the straight 40 engine oil. Most oil companies have a lube guide on their web sites that offer their best advice on what to use.
Hi Lance, My TED has started weeping oil from the crankshaft rear seal. Is it possible to change this seal without dropping the sump and main cap? I've also just started my own UA-cam channel (Rory's Workshop) and currently have the TED split in half to change the clutch, input shaft seal as well as a damned good service. I will put links in my videos to yours as you have been a huge source of knowledge and assistance. Keep up your great work!
G Day Rory, Im subscriber no 63! I think you need to drop the sump and main cap to make it easier but the seal supplied is a split one so it might just feed in. I have not done one in years so there is some video content for the future.
@@BundyBearsShed Wow thank you Lance! I'm filming it as we speak and naturally finding other things as we go
Looking forward to this tractor I have a Te 20 I’m working on just ran into a problem with the oil gauge it had what looks like brake line and nothing will bolt up to the fitting on the block I hope you can address this on your video
G Day Richard, We have the oil line and it originally had a banjo fitting on the engine block that had a 3/8" unf banjo bolt from memory, I would have to check to be sure.
Here is a link to my site to show you what it looks like: www.queenslandtractorspares.com.au/product/oil-pressure-gauge-pipemodels-with-one-piece-pipe/
Awesome mate., i can finally work out what year mine is wasn't sure if it 's TE or TEA 20. Cheers.
Glad it helped
Muy bueno los datos de los tractores antiguos ferguson , tengo un ferguson 30 con motor nissan sd23, y necesito los terminales de direccion y gomas.
Sounds like a good tractor to own.
hi lance,hows things, question for you ,how would i go about cleaning the inside of my TEA20 1952 gas tank, i don't see a video on this. thanks Steve
I put chain in and shake it about then flush a lot.
@@BundyBearsShed thanks Lance,i will try that
Definitely looking forward to this series Lance. Do you think you’ll be able to go through that leaking steering box at some point? Mine looks about the same...
Possibly, If not on this tractor on the barn find TED, it is sitting doing nothing. I have not done a steering box video yet.
You videos have been incredibly helpful!
Thanks for your passion and all you do.
Would you be able to confirm the year of this TEA20 SC34532E this is stamped on the engine block. The aluminum tag is missing.
I cant really date it from there but there would be a few date stamped castings near the rear dipstick housing and also look on the generator for a year model if it is the original one.
so ya guna paint an put a flat head v8 in it is that right or left hand drive lol
FE35 for a V8 I think.
Nice work Lance, looking forward to this. Just a suggestion, make the vid name with a number near the front so l can find it on my phone. Eg Sparex-TEA1, just an idea. But l look forward to whatever it is called 😊
Good idea! Ill see what I can do.
There even is something for the haters. The replaced rim is guess what RED I love it already. lol
Yeah the red Rim! lol. My story is that it adds character
Thanks for new and good content on the Tea20. Will you change out the steering seals as well?
Not sure yet could well be on the cards. I have never done a video on that.
Any idea where i can find ted-20 pushrods?
If you are in Australia possibly but overseas I could not be sure. There are a couple of different lengths so you would need to measure them before you went looking.
Could you make a video for the new Massey Ferguson. 165 massey
I dont have one to video.
I'm having trouble with my to20, it bogs down under load such as shredding or trying to. Any advise?
I would open the main jet or adjust the distributor timing. You can always take half of a cut too.
@@BundyBearsShed I'll give the jet a try, I messed with the distributor and it seems close.
could you do s video on polorising a generator on a te-20 i have 3 wires going to mine 2 on top and one on the end and it says to hook to the big terminal but all of mine are the same size
Have a look here on my web site, not a video but an explination. queenslandtractorspares.com.au/technical/
Lance
TE-20
i have spark to the spark plugs but still will not start. it seems to me something is dragging it down when i crank it over i have a new battery but it seens just not enough cranking power to start any help thank you
As a starter gets weak it draws a lot more current so it may be a faulty starter. Hard to say really. Can you try and crank start it?
I currently dont have a hand crank but I will get one thanks alot for your help
Hi I want to know what are the best spark plug for ted 20
I run the long ones and go hotter than recomended if the tractor or engine has some agew on it.
our PM Boris is in intensive care with Chinese flu, if he does then the lockdown will be permanent and worldwide, hope he gets well soon!
Yes we see he is in a bit of trouble. I hope it all goes well for him.
Hi Lance , so good to see you again. I have a 1952 tea, which is pretty rough. I will be watching all you do with this little guy. I want to email you some pics and questions if i could. Can you give me this appropriate email address?
A suggestion for a title for this series: "TEA" for Fergie.
Thanks Lance
Cool, thanks use the bundybearsshed@gmail.com I monitor it week days usually.
Hi Lance,number on tag unde steering wheel TEA282623, number on engineblock SC30156E,can you tell me the year of my tractor please and thank you
looks like you have a 1952 Model 241335-310779 1952
@@BundyBearsShed Hi Lance, would you know what size engine i have, the hydraulic pump side valve chamber is broke ,it has TEA28 26 83on the stamp on the steering wheel,thanks
Lance can you tell me what tractor i have SN is TE 81025 thank you so much.
Do you have a Continental engine? There is not a TEA or TED etc.?
@@BundyBearsShed i am confused i thought i had a TE-20 but with the SN chart it is a 1949 i guess it is a TEA-20 Tractor with standard petrol engine
What is the best way to know if you have a continental eng
Do you ship to the United States?
We would possibly on a one of basis but the normal checkout would not work you should have to get a quote from my staff. With the Aussie dollar so low it might be cheap enough but freight is the killer most times.
4.05 93.9 horses Lance 😲🚀😂
lol Powerfull brute eh, I meant to put a not over that but forgot.
23c engine build???? I'll lend you one out of my gold belly
One day there will be one done, I have the tractors waiting patiently.

Thankyou.
