Sparex Ferguson TEA20 # 17 Removing the Camshaft

[@Zomsky]

That Standard engine always surprised me just how simple it really was. Honestly, it's really quite genius that they were able to simplify it so much. It's almost like they knew blokes in shed would be pulling it apart 70 years later....

[@BundyBearsShed]

Everything was far simpler back then even engines.

[@LordIronFoot]

I love the "I've use up my quota of swear words and It's only 7 o clock" haha fantastic.

[@BundyBearsShed]

lol.

[@motorv8N]

Fabulous session, Lance - thank you very much! The governor on my TEA has always been an intimidating bit of kit for me. Very glad you are going to delve into the dark arts of a reset 👍

[@BundyBearsShed]

Glad it was helpful!

[@tomroskell403]

I absolutely agree adjusting the governor seems a dark art to me . Something I've struggled with. Watching with great interest 😁

[@Tod_Unctious]

Very good video as always Lance. I am so loving this little TEA20 series. 👍👍👍👍👍

[@BundyBearsShed]

Glad to hear it!

[@kiwifirey7347]

Just bought a Fergie28 and in researching what to keep an eye out for I stumbled across your channel. Whether it will be of use to me or not isn't even the point, just a fascinating watch and your narration is terrific. Some rainy days will be spent going through your back catalogue. Good on ya mate.

[@BundyBearsShed]

Welcome aboard!

[@daveryder8275]

Good on ya Lance , I didn`t know either about the oil slot at the end of the camshaft either , great job Lance

[@BundyBearsShed]

Thanks 👍

[@charleshart6992]

Another excellent instalment!

[@BundyBearsShed]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@michaelguckian5373]

Great video, couldn't enjoy it more unless I was sitting down beside yea. Ta mate.

[@BundyBearsShed]

Glad you enjoyed it

Hi Lance, what is the name of the birds we are often hearing in the background? It seems like its usually one species of tropical bird.

[@BundyBearsShed]

Kookaburra

[@tonydoggett7627]

Yes! Over tightening the fan belt destroys the rear bush in the generators. The Bosch VW beetle generators, with the ball bearings front and back, last forever!

[@BundyBearsShed]

I wonder if that is where they got the idea from.

[@richardburgers8965]

I have learned a lot thanks for sharing your knowledge. I feel empowered to do the same. Are the sprockets and chain same as in the TED20?

[@BundyBearsShed]

Yes they are

[@johnkinnane547]

That "slit" in the crank shaft seems a bit "Mickey mouse doesn't it Lance, I suppose it works well so they went with it. Good video Lance looking forward to the next one......regards John, it was good Sparex are backing it

[@BundyBearsShed]

Thanks 👍

[@vehicle_entrance]

great video as usual Lance. Should there be any movement in the governor weights? except for the obvious swinging. stay safe

[@BundyBearsShed]

Yes there is always a little.

[@markandermann3107]

hi, where can i buy 15240A Pin, brass TO-20 Ferguson?

[@BundyBearsShed]

Im not sure with a TO Ferguson as we didnt have the TO's over here.

[@ryno8547]

Hi lance can you tell if a te20 cylinder head is a tvo or straight petrol just by looking at it I have bought a engine in pieces and the old boy said it was straight petrol and his lad said the block was straight petrol and head was tvo can you help

[@BundyBearsShed]

There is a way but Im just not sure myself.

[@johnrawlings8850]

Why didn't you film taking the front end off I'm having difficulty doing that?

[@BundyBearsShed]

It is only 6 bolts to undo so I didnt think it was good viewing.

[@ahuman6825]

What happened to the timing chain tensioner? I thought they had one or did I miss something?

[@ShainAndrews]

Rare for any vintage engine to have one.

[@BundyBearsShed]

The diesels have one but not the petrol or petrol kero.

[@BundyBearsShed]

Diesels only with the Standard Motor Company engines.

[@markorlando4817]

My tractor has the same distributor in it. I wonder what car it’s out of?

[@BundyBearsShed]

Probably a Morris I was thinking.

[@TigerUNC52]

Hey Lance. Really enjoying this series. Wanted to let you know that this video is in the Fergie rebuild playlist twice.

[@BundyBearsShed]

.

[@MikeR-dc8bi]

Can you remove the cam without removing the head?

[@BundyBearsShed]

No

[@MikeR-dc8bi]

@@BundyBearsShed how come? Valves?

[@danstevens2204]

How they dusted an oil bath engine is beyond me. I had a timing chain break due to broken governor weights on an mf35. There was no “blow up” or valve damage.

[@BundyBearsShed]

You got a bit lucky, good work.

[@scottleininger2404]

Awesome

[@BundyBearsShed]

Thanks

[@renederaideux8142]

Hi, greatings from Belgium... the first viewer for today

[@BundyBearsShed]

Morning! The winner!, lol

[@AaronEngineering]

Jesus, that timing chain, gears and governor is worn out. I didn’t know that the the weights attached there 👍

[@BundyBearsShed]

Shes 70 years old so I suppose we should expect a bit of wear.

[@DCT_Aaron_Engineering]

@@BundyBearsShed Yes I'd be worn out after that amount of time also Lance. Cheers, Aaron (PS: this is my other channel).

[@allansmith257]

I only just learnt they don’t have cam bearings

[@BundyBearsShed]

Yeah would be good if they did eh.

[@pm270100]

but good vid well done

[@BundyBearsShed]

Thanks.

[@pm270100]

OLD FART

[@BundyBearsShed]

Yep
