5020 pulls 70 feet of heavy harrow! Fresh engine break in!

[@billyhenry3029]

That ole 5020 is a hell of a tractor you can just hear the power in that motor

[@giltk8258]

That’s the very best way to break in a engine. She will be a happy engine for a long long time. Work it hard.

[@matthewheinze1231]

You said it "Majestic"!!!!

[@brianzybura8633]

I am glad that your work on your 5020 paid off. Its a real good thrill watching it work. Thanks for showing.

[@thomasmarti5856]

That 5020 rocks! You could tell when everything seated in by the sound of the tractor , it just sounds awesome! Good job :)

[@samellis4054]

This is why I absolutely love your channel!! How often do you see a 5020 working? Hardly ever

[@colinwallace5286]

I got to run a 5020 when I was ten, and looking at that big wide hood and those fat tires made me feel like I was really getting something done. That thing was a cat on rubber. Made the “higher” horsepower 4320 look like a toy in tough going. As soon as the rpm’s dropped on the newer one, it was game over. Love seeing how many of these tanks are still at it. They seem to really be popular with road builders, running around with a long string of packers. Great video!!

[@brucesetter7655]

To an old time farmer this sure makes me smile.

[@jeffreyvandervoort8324]

Your 5020 looks so badass with the duels!

[@terrystark2433]

Definitely gave that 5020 a workout! Sounded great👌

[@TinManKustoms]

That disk and harrow setup behind the 835 looks tiny behind that monster. Nice to see the 5020 back in action. The old iron always looks beautiful in the feild.

[@brianhengesbach7040]

Great job on overhauling the 5020 Nick, she looks mighty fine out there in the field breaking her in !

[@canvids1]

Great over haul of the 5020 nothing blowin up no leaks yet and pulls like she was made to do all the best the rest of the spring ground working and planting.

[@Abritinluzon]

Nice to see the 5020 back at work great job on the rebuild

[@vernegriffis5457]

Thank you Nick. I have been waiting to see the 5020 back in action. You should be proud of the way it turned out.

[@6point5by55]

Always satisfying to see a refreshed engine broken in properly. Also good to see "the legend" is back.

[@onealfarms9967]

Being a Tec for 35 years this is the best way to break one in she will either blow or go

[@NorthEastSaskFarmer]

If you got a 50ft heavy harrow, you could make the new 5020 with a cab a designated harrow tractor 👌

[@devinwilmote3228]

Nick, that is one hell of a Tribute to Greta! 5020's looking Good.

[@Mark_Tschetter]

Did you hear? Greta aka climate Barby no longer cares about climate, in fact she is boycotting the next climate convenient in europe due to vaccine inequality. She has now been hired by the vaccine propagandists to push vaccine. The climate is no long an issue......I guess theres no more money in it.

Good morning sir. It looks good. A tractor feels best when it has to work hard. The old tractors from Volvo, which I drove in my youth, thrived best when the manifold glowed.

5020 loved every second of that....and so did I lol

[@clydeschwartz2167]

Excellent video it's nice to see the 5020 up and running the oil pressure should be higher at full throttle and around 20 psi idling the idiot light is a joke it doesn't come on until it drops below 5 psi and by that time the damage is done already

[@davidkufeldt9354]

Nick, great job. Release THE BEAST some more! Great looking unit.👍

[@steamfan7147]

Tractor is sounding Goooodddd! 😎

[@kolewiebensohn]

My 930 case at all rpms makes 40lbs of oil pressure unless my gauge ain't working right. That 5020 will do great things now.

[@joebiteme9463]

I used farm with a 5020! Great tractor. Mine was a 71 model with a cab on it.

[@stevehetrick2676]

Setting oil pressure is simple. Turn off that long but, then loosen the jam nut. There is a screw driver slot in the theaded part under that long but, turn it in while tractor is running to get the oil pressure you want it at, then tighten the jam nut and put the long but back on tight!!!! All set! Good to go👍👍👍 Yes I have done it a few times.

[@SouthSaskFarmer1]

Awesome thanks!!!!!

[@melvinoxford881]

Dam nick that 5020 sounds dam good l have a 4020 and 4440 I like old iron l watch you all time

Love the vintage iron

[@brucebaker4462]

Love the sound of the old 5020,last tractor that was good from deere.

[@SilverGleaner]

umm the 5020 was known as a real dog in my area. They were just too heavy for the power they put out and needed to be turbocharged. Plus the engine was always a potential problem, whether they were turboed or not...... hence why so many were replaced with a Detroit or the only marginally better 619 Deere engine. Deere finally got their act together with the later 40 series and especially the 50 series although they kept that small, hot, crappy cab way too long.

[@aaronkline9102]

i love the 5020 the way you have it set up looks more mean without a loader next you need a 6030 to complete that cool collection

[@jacoblenting3742]

You were so excited to get the 5020 to work..suprised you let old twan make the maidin voyage!!

[@SouthSaskFarmer1]

I know. But I did it for you guys to get the vidjia lol

[@57REDROOSTER]

I have a 1967 5020 and about 20 years ago I scattered the motor all over the field... I put a motor out of an 8630 in it and you talk about a puller... 6 bottom plow in 6th gear no problem lol

[@SilverGleaner]

The Deere 531 engine had that problem a lot. The 619 you replaced it with is marginally better.

[@Thommpsen]

Show us! You got a KZbin Channel so show us the 5020

[@outinthesticks1035]

I often wondered if you could do that swap , so it stands to reason that a 40 to 70 series would also work

[@SilverGleaner]

@@outinthesticks1035 70 series?

[@outinthesticks1035]

@@SilverGleaner still the 619 engine, I know the 50 series engine was used in 30 tractors but I'm not up on how much the 70s had changed

[@palletcabin-YR_Author]

Good one, thanks!

[@colinlockridge2815]

I do believe 5020 said " all you got is 70ft? " lol 😆😂 great video keep them coming 👍

[@SilverGleaner]

It is just a drag. We used to pull a 20 foot drag with our WD.

[@colinlockridge2815]

If you are comparing those two things apparently you don't farm.

[@SilverGleaner]

@@colinlockridge2815 I was only joking by bringing up a WD which should have been obvious but I guess not over a keyboard. But Dad did used to put me on his WD to actually pull a spring tooth 5 section drag that was 20 or 25 feet wide. Looks somewhat like that "harrow" but a much lighter and smaller scale and no hydraulic lift. To transport, we lifted the sections up by hand to put on their own hanger and then swung each side of the drag forward and then lifted the heavy wings by hand onto a carrier. We "dragged" after the field cultivator and just before the planter to smooth the field. That was back when I was little and before we had a field cultivator with a drag attached. And yes I do farm but never pulled a so-called "harrow" like that or ever saw one anywhere near here. It looks like an over grown spring tooth drag like we used to pull with the old WD. No one here pulls anything like that in Southern Minnesota. You would be laughed at if you did. Here in my area you need to actually work the soil, not scratch it. We pull plows like chisel plows, moldboard plows, rippers and the new fad is vertical tillage tools which I think will fade away because in my opinion, VT doesn't work here in our heavy black dirt and clay soils. Around me no one uses the word "harrow". The old timers who are long gone used to pull what they called a "harrow" which looked similar to a field cultivator with no wheels that just scratched the dirt surface turning weed roots up to dry out. That's back before my time when you moldboard plowed, disked about 3 times and then ran the "harrow" over just before the planter. And BTW we still moldboard plow sometimes and just a few miles to our west the moldboard plow is still very popular.

You just need to turn the screw under the long hex cap on rear right hand side. Takes 5 min. You may have a stuck pressure regulator valve.

[@rollling7523]

That harrow is nice

[@mbury8004]

Nice heavy old iron ! Regards from germany

[@kennycraze]

The oil pressure may be adjustable but there is concern over how much it drops between 1500 rpm and idle. This difference is a gauge mechanics use to determine crank shaft and bearing status. This differential in pressure per rpm will still exist after the pressure is raised. Oil pressure is lost on worn or improperly fit bearings and also potential blockage in the oil galleries throughout the crankshaft. Viewers wonder if plastigage was employed during the installation of the crankshaft, as this was never filmed.
