What I find interesting as I continually navigate the KZbin algorithm is that my 3 prior videos of this tractor which have no music and more details have lower views, while this compilation video that uses music to cover up wind noise, and other audio artifacts has much higher views.

Thank you, I'm very proud of the progress so far.

I think you're right! I'd like to try it in different soil and see what happens.

You're right about that! I find myself talking to them sometimes. Thank you!

Chucky hates carburetors lol. I made this channel when he disappeared for a while. I enjoyed some old school Chucky too.

No, not yet, but I'll do that in a future video when I start to get this thing put back together. Right now I just have the carburetor installed with nothing on the intake side. More to come!

@@TractorHoarders Good, from the way it looks it has too much oil in it or it's full of water too. The old girl sounded great .

I think Deutz tractors are pretty good in general. I had a Deutz lawn tractor once, but I know that doesn't really count. :)

It sure makes them a lot easier to work on when there's no computer

Thank you! I really enjoyed this and have more work like this coming that I'll be sure to share.

I sure enjoyed it! Thank you very much.

How old were you then? Did it seem pretty difficult at the time?

@TractorHoarders i was a teen then actually pretty easy to start i could bench 310 lbs so i was like 1 of few kids that could start it lol started working out when i was 12 by the time i was 15 i was benching 310 lbs but back then growing up and abused i had a lot of anger to release lol

Thanks! I'm pretty pleased with mine. I wonder if they had used that one you mentioned for tractor pulls. I see where pullers tend to strip that stuff off to drop weight. I had wondered if mine was ever used for pulling because of the pressed steel wheels on the rear, but not sure. Nothing wrong with a narrow front G. I wouldn't mind having one of those.

I'll probably make a newer video of this at some point this winter to share. Good feedback and I'll include that.

thank you!!

Oh yes! It's very remote! This is just my playground. I live in a neighborhood (unfortunately). :)

I was really surprised too! Looking forward to getting some more run time on this one and seeing how it continues to run. I was expecting it to be more of a smoker too. I love listening to them as well.

Same here!! I'm looking forward to loading this one up someday after I get it put back together and some new tires on it. I'll be sure to share.

I mean tools versus no tools... is it really easier? But yes, I have probably over 20 videos of how to clean various carburetors in 10 minutes or less if you need it.

Thank you! I’m glad that it helped you out! While not complicated, it is a little bit of a frustrating design.

I've heard "you have to be able to start it and then you can drive it"... you sure didn't let that stop you. Doing that at 8 is impressive.

My uncle stanley was impressed also and said. I said if you can start it you can drive it so now you get to do that.

That’s not a contest I want to win. 😂 is yours still stuck?

@TractorHoarders it's stuck in my barn, all the parts I need will be here tomorrow, it's been there for 50 years

@ very cool! It’ll be great when you hear it run for the first time

@@TractorHoarders it's the model A

It was not the right one for the job for sure! Lol

Sounds like a nice lineup!

I will totally do that! Thanks!

Good idea

Thanks for the recommendation - I will give that a try

I’ve got a 1950 JD A that is in queue to be worked on. Needs a new head gasket and manifold at least. I’ll share it on here. You may enjoy that too. They’re fairly simple engines. I’m sure you’ve seen and worked on much more complex.

They kinda do!

I’d like to add a 430 to my collection someday

Haha! You may be right. 😆

It does sound pretty cool like that 😁

KZbin is a tricky animal and the recipe for viewer retention (and promotion as a result) isn’t as simple as making 4 hour long unedited videos. Fortunately, I have other videos of this tractor and progress with it available too.

They really are simple to work on, and were designed and built to last the test of time. Thank you for the comment. I look forward to sharing more.

3 bottoms is a whole lot for a B!

@@TractorHoarders Yeah, it was definitely too much lol! I have a 1955 60 that I'll pull that one with. I also have an old IH "Little Genius" 2 bottom plow that I think will work with the B once i get it back together.

Thank you! Looking forward to sharing more on this tractor!

I’m hoping to take it to a plow day next year. I’ll share it on here if I do. It’s a big fella.

It’s not bad at all! Got it at an auction a few years back.

That’s great! What kind of work do you need to do on yours?

Sounds like good memories to me. I’ve always got my eye out for a sickle mower to couple to one of these and give it a try.

@@TractorHoarders They work really well if you keep them greased and change out the broken sections that hit rocks, so the bar doesn't plug. It takes some practice going around corners. You mow to where you have the length of the sickle bar left to mow, then raise the bar with the left foot lever, make a sharp turn to the right, and use the right brake to swing the sickle bar around and start the next pass, dropping the bar when you get to the start of the unmowed grass. You need a tractor with a tricycle front end to make this work. After my sister and I left home my dad sold the tractor and mower to his neighbor, who had some other old tractors and really wanted it. I don't know what happened to the neighbor or the tractor and mower after that. This old B had two fuel tanks. A small one in the back and a large one in front of it. My dad said the smaller tank was for gasoline, and the larger tank was for kerosene. Start the tractor on gasoline and when it warmed up you could switch it to run on kerosene.

Hello, and thanks for the detailed comment. I very much appreciate it. I have many snowblower carburetor troubleshooting / repair / replacement videos. Of course it depends on what kind of engine you have, but if it’s a Tecumseh engine, like these, I have many videos of doing those with varying levels of detail. An unfortunate thing with KZbin and other social media platforms is if I make the video longer and more detailed, less people will watch it through, and then because of that, KZbin won’t suggest my content for people to view. It’s complicated. I hope some of the existing videos are helpful but will take your suggestions into consideration for future videos to be made.

Fantastic!! Thank you.

Thank you!! 🫡

Yes, I will!
