[@yknott9873]

Two items - 1) Oliver - the OTHER green tractor! 2) Y'all really need to learn how to use a crank. If that engine had backfired while the crank was turning downwards, it would spin the crank backwards REAL fast - and break whatever part of your body was pushing down on it at the moment. An apocryphal story (meaning, I heard it but can't find it in print) suggested that John Mack (of "Mack Trucks" fame) was killed by a crank; the engine backfired, the crank broke his arm and threw him on the ground under the crank, which then completed a second rotation and pegged him in the back of the head. Traditionally you only pull the crank upward, so if it backfires it yanks the crank out of your hand - and you cup your hand around it rather than putting your thumb around it, as then a backfiring crank will throw itself out of your hand instead of catching your thumb and mangling it. Sorta' like driving big old trucks across fields, you wrap your hands around the outside of the steering wheel and don't put your thumbs inside the spokes, as if you hit a rock the tire will wow to the side, the steering box will instantly spin the steering wheel at 45,000 rpm and the spokes will ruin whatever of your body parts they hit. 3) LOVE your stuff - MORE JUNKYARD MOOK!

[@jacquejecker4435]

I was thinking the same thing. I never used a crank but I heard the old timers talk about how many people got broken arms back in the day.

[@oliverknowles3229]

I operated a 1978 Ford 231 gasoline tractor for non-farming purposes back in 1996-1997. It always started easily, ran smooth, and pulled strong. It was well maintained. The starter went bad on it, so I removed it and had it rebuilt in a few days at a local shop for a ridiculously low cost at the time, and reinstalled it with no issues except that the one starter bolt was a bear to reach. It ran very well year round here in western PA and I've often wondered what ever happened to it for many years. I hope she's still running and pulling strong somewhere.

[@stk0308]

Back in about 1980 dad picked up an Oliver 88, could have been a Super even, with the wide front end. It had a hydraulic loader/bucket which he then modified the bucket to take fork truck tines. He needed a fork truck to unload new motorcycle crates at the shop. And, being him, he thought this was better than just a fork truck because, without the tines, it could also be used to clear snow from the parking lot as well! I will say this. It never failed him. His backup plan was an LP converted version he bought a little after the main one. But, it had the narrow front end, so not ideal for unloading crates. I never saw it run because the primary was always ready to go. We sold out of the motorcycle shop in the late 80's and the tractors went away as well.

Kick back only happens if the timing is really off. Initial timing on these engines is 2-4 degrees BTDC at most. Inertia will take it past before the mixture can spark off. If your initial timing is excessively advanced then is when you can have dangerous kickback.

[@jameshedrick605]

I know that feeling. Worked on a 1949 McCormick Farmall my senior year when I was taking auto mechanics tries to crank start and didn't know the timing was off and ended up dislocating my right shoulder when it kicked back

I enjoyed the smile on Kevin's face each time the Oliver started.

[@RaggedyAtom]

Just to help them with the tractor information: They were made from 1948-1954 and were part of the Fleetline series of Row-Crop tractors. There were 3 variants of this tractor; the row-crop, standard, and orchard. There were also 3 engine variants as well; these all being a Waukesha-Oliver 3.2L 6-cylinder either fuelled by gasoline, diesel, or LP Gas. The transmissions in these consisted of a 6-speed unsynchronised gear. The tractor variant you have is the Row-Crop, indicated by the extremely faded decal on both sides of the tractor and the fact it has a tricycle chassis due to the way it sits.

[@arg8763]

So you copy and pasted that from somewhere, right? This is a standard, not a row crop.

@@arg8763 no that was a row crop you can tell from multiple things but the most obvious is the rear end has in yellow letters "row crop" in the casting

Hey, you guys need to understand not to fiddle with that crank-start like it's a wind up toy! Those cranks stick, especially rusty sitting tractors, and you're in the hospital with broken arms, jaws, ribs, or dead as the handle knocks around at engine rpm like a plane propeller. Proper cranking technique involves lifting while keeping all of your body out of the way. Charles Kettering invented the electric starter because of all the death and mayhem he saw from improper hand cranking.

[@williamwertman24]

The most important comment over all. I've had my 38 allis wc kick while cranking. Because of proper technique I was unharmed. The best way is to start at 10 o'clock and while out of the way, pull over with your hands open and only your fingers touching, no thumbs. If it kicks then your fingers can open and let the crank go when it wants. And you can be out of harms way

[@4StrokeShop]

Your tractor has the rare fender extensions. Most had the standard clamshell. Extensions give better operator protection from flying mud. The side curtains were to give the series a streamlined look. However, most owners took them off and hung them up in the tractor shed. Better engine cooling and engine servicing. AL B.

LOL Angus on that tiller was all over like a madwoman's piss!

There is a real following for Oliver tractors. Glad you guys are showing why the old timers that owned them luv'd on them so much

The hole in the axle is not factory, as long as it's all good i would weld that up thats bad to have a random holes in it, my dad pulled a 88 oliver with 135 hp and we have olivers we dont pull , a 77 88 and a 1800and a White 270 same as a 1655 oliver.

The old saying "knee high by the 4th of July" never mentions how tall the farmer was. So although everyone else has a 5" start your corn could still turn out alright.
