I have to go back and watch other videos because I think I missed something as to how that manifold preheater and excess fuel system works. I used one of those locking grease couplings for the first time last fall, worked great. Looks like you had a meeting of the minds, I’m sure it was for the exchange of ideas and knowledge. I remember having some of those 30 years ago standing around motorcycles.

I'm in Southern Victoria Australia, not sure if they were the same in the UK but the first Massey Ferguson 165 came out with, I think the same engine which was in the 65, it had the exhaust on the left, like the one you are working on and I think that was 58hp, then they replaced it with the 62hp version and it had the exhaust on the right side, that one is very popular down here, I know a farmer who had 2 of them with cabins in the 1970s and 1980s, just wondering, are you going to paint this one?
@ClarenceFudWeasel2 жыл бұрын
That's correct, the early ones were fitted with the 4.203 engine and the later ones with a short stroke version of the 4.236, the 4.212. I wasn't planning on painting the 165 because it's going to be a working tractor and the paintwork tells a story. The 175 however I want to do a factory restoration.

I've always been told to use engine oil in the power steering system on our MFs in case the seal between the pump and the engine fails, would this cause any damage to the tractor?

It won't do any harm to use engine oil, it just has slightly different viscosity characteristics than ATF, and the steering will be a bit stiffer on a cold morning.
