Great tractors David Brown have one myself an 1190,3 cyl.

brilliant work !

Lovely tractor and lovely dog 🐕

[@markosmith8037]

The little valve at 4:03 seems to be the cause of a lot of the hydraulic problems. It seems to stick through lack of use (and moisture) and needs gently working free to get the hydraulics functioning properly. Unfortunately it is very difficult to get to with a cab, but is just about possible for non Q-cab tractors. You probably have to have done one before and have a good imagination ! I think it is a 7/16" (11mm) spanner size, two nuts locked together. Great video.

Great video, she's starting to look better.

[@dirt_and_diesel]

Thanks mate, a bit of oil splashed on the old paint does wonders

[@laytonphillips6667]

@@dirt_and_diesel yes the old red paint a soon look good with a jet wash n some oil on her , they are good handy tractors

[@John-wf2yh]

Please buy some TFR, get it sprayed down in it whilst it’s dry, in all the nucks And crannys and give it a really tougher jet wash, that chassis looks like it will come up a treat at the back

[@dalemcgire39]

Love to get my hands on one off then

[@dirt_and_diesel]

No worries, it’s good that folk offer their advice really. It all helps

[@connorkelleher6569]

Oh man she's just a beauty ,even better when she'll be painted

[@dirt_and_diesel]

Yeah, can’t wait. Gonna run her rusty in the grass for a bit first, find any issues

@@dirt_and_diesel ya no point having her looking pretty if it don't work properly

Hi i'm in the middle of restoring a Db 990 selectomatic, could you please tell me how do you remove the bolts at the top of the lift links, I've got the nuts loose but the bolts appear to solid in the radius lift arms and I really don't want to start hitting things with hammers just yet. Are these kept in with a mating taper in the radius arm? many thanks

[@yesterdayfarm5273]

What, exactly, was the issue to resort to this level of 'attention'?

[@lesforets]

Hi how do you bleed the brakes🤔😳please...mine exactly the same

[@Mazzi_o7]

Is this D.B 1690?

[@yesterdayfarm5273]

BTW, is this a 1494?

[@markosmith8037]

DB 1690 - 6-cylinder power. Still a sort of big tractor in the UK despite being from the late 1970's

[@barryjohnsheppard9703]

I got a case 1494 it's got to diesel 1 is full an an 1 not got much in it how dunz it work

[@barryjohnsheppard9703]

[@chriswalker1058]

I put a buzzer on my oil pressure light oil pump fails the oil pressure switch turns the light and the buzzer on instantly

[@dirt_and_diesel]

Ohh that’s a good idea. Might steal that one in the short term

[@alan6832]

@@dirt_and_diesel Can you wire that switch directly to the engine shut-off, to remove the human factor entirely? same for overheat? Also, might the valves have been freed up with detergent oil, repeated work, and a few hot-cold cycles, without needing to disassemble?
