    There is a small gauze in line filter between the diesel tank and the fuel filter in the 135 it probably needs cleaning or replaced if its old

    most likely a blocked filter in the tank and for what they cost get a lift pump kit or even a new lift pump , both really simple jobs on a 135

    I can't believe you managed to push the 135, muscles as well as beauty and brains. The cattle look so happy even if they do get a bit skittish at times.Hope you get the135 sorted, it's a pain when you can't rely on it.
    The weather is improving so hopefully the grass will come on well, for the cattle and a 2nd cut.
    Cheers, Poth.

    Hi Karen,
    Good work on your channel 👍.
    Your diesel problem in the 135 could be a few different things.
    The filter in the tank could have come off
    Fuel filter need changing
    Lift pump could have dirt its valves or diafram split
    Fuel supply hose into injector pump has a tiny little filter in it has to be taken out with a tweezers or long nose pliers.

    Hello Karen .Always use a fuel funnel with a strainer when putting diesel in the 135 .Dirt in the fuel tank can cause problems .
    Best of luck with your work .

    That's my kind of retail therapy too. No shoes or purses for me, just some outdoor/farm equipment. Thank you for sharing the struggles along with the beauty/fun stuff. Sorry about the 135, hopefully she's up and running again soon. I had the opportunity to do some tractor work at my church this weekend and it was an absolute joy. Having a good working tractor is such a blessing.

      It's a gause filter that is on the outlet from the tank. It goes up about an inch into the tank. I've had the same problem many times and that eveventually solved the problem Karen.

    I got really good at bleeding the system on my 35x because I used to forget to turn the fuel on at the tank before starting and would usually get a few hundred metres from the yard before hearing it die. I even tied a huge yellow plastic label to the key with "Turn the (expletive deleted) fuel on you old f@rt" written on it and I would still forget. Unfortunately, the priming lever on the lift pump has been broken for years so I have to spin it over on the starter to bleed it (which occasionally leads to a flat battery and the need to lug a battery out to the tractor).
    I keep telling myself it's better than working for a living and I still think it is.

  • @AndrewTann-u4u

    Could well be a blocked filter attached to the tap on the main tank. I put my fuel through a gauze funnel to reduce the risk of an inaccessible blockage .

    You should get a solar panel and install it where you put your battery fencer. I have 2 fencers running off batteries that have a solar panel to keep the battery charged. You can mount it on a post and move it when you move the fencer. I use a steel tee post. Don't know if steel tee post are an option for you. It would mount on a wood post also. I also have some solar fencers with a battery inside them but I don't like them as well as the ones I have added a solar panel to a regular battery. I am in West Tennessee USA. Nice pressure washer. I have one a little smaller than yours, but it has a Honda engine and has been here 21 years.

  • @haggielady
    @haggielady 5 місяців тому +1

    Good power washer and you got an extension for it, those things come in handy.
    One thing that you have to do with it that no mentioned is that when you're through with it for the summer/fall, Drain The Petrol Out. Or run it out. Or put stabilizer in the tank. If you don't, the stuff goes bad over the winter and then you'll be draining it out and throwing good money away getting it fixed. Been there, done that, got the T-shirt.
    Hopefully your week got better.

  • @1ADP

    Great purchase so potable for you to use around the farm,have you check your diesel storage tank that’s well hidden 😀 might be an ideal to put a filter on the hose if your have rust etc in the tank plus this bio fuel diesel can grow bacteria when old that can block filters on tractors.Lastly the Gunnera looks great.

  • @michaelcoriordan
    @michaelcoriordan 5 місяців тому

    Hi Karen,
    Well done with the new power washer. You won't know yourself, especially with the turbo lance for cleaning out the slats. That's a game changer.
    Your fuel problems sound like the little gauze filter inside the fuel tank by the fuel tap is getting blocked. Every time the tractor is driven, any sediment that is lying on the bottom of the fuel tank is stirred up, and this will eventually block that little gauze filter. It's an easy fix, and the filter itself is only around €3.00. Do you fill your diesel out of drums or a tank? Using a funnel with a gauze in it will help to keep out a lot of sediment.
    Animals will always give you days like the 1 you showed us. I bought a suckler Angus bullock recently. I have never seen an animal to keep their head up so much. Keeping a look out for everything, he grazes with his head 😮. And something tells me that I am going to have a few fun days ahead of me with him 😢.

    @markfakkeldij 5 місяців тому +1

    hi karen. Obviously annoying when something doesn't want to happen and especially when the same thing happens more often in a short time, which I understood from the engine tracktor stopping. Has the fuel filter been replaced with a new one last time? If there is dirt in the tank or diesel bacteria, a new filter will quickly become clogged again to ensure that it does not get into the fuel. Lightly rinse the tank and bleed the pipes. The pump only works if you open the fuel pipe slightly at a higher point. I learned that it is running loose. Recently I helped a gray Massy Fergusun with brake cleaner or Start Pilot spray on the air filter. After half a can of spray the air was out of the line. I hope I helped you with this. Kind regards, Mark from the Netherlands.

    One tip, before u start the powerwasher anytime and everytime, pull the trigger on the lance, this will prevent pressure overload and stop the seals failing. And keep it in a warm conditions during frost. Me though i perfer the lidl wan, i cant dump it back to them if it gives any trouble and get a new wan next time theyre on offer!

    My BCS walking tractor has a slightly larger version of that Honda engine.

I would just get the pressure washer attachment for the BCS tractor of course... But I think you'll be happy with its performance and economical operation. Watch Lord Muck here on the YT and Calamity Kim. They are on your side of the pond and good tractor mechanics. I'm sure there are others a yank like myself does not know about.

    We had exactly same problem with our 135. Afterwards it seemed to be an easy fix, so maybe you have exactly same problem. On the bottom of your diesel tank there is a small valve what you can open and close, and where the line is attached where the diesels goes to the engine. On top of that small valve is a tiny filter attached, it's in the diesel tank. So if you remove the line, you can remove the valve from te tank by just turning it. When you pull it out of the tank, the small filter will also come out so you can clean it

    Could be junk in the fuel tank. Had it happen before, might be as simple as cobwebs, they don't break down in fuel like you'd think and anything like that will float around in the tank and get caught in the pickup tube at the most random times.
