Ferguson TED20 - Stripping the Engine - with Anglo Agriparts

With the engine now separated we dismantled it, removing the head, sump, pistons and crankshaft etc. We found a mixture of results - cylinder sleeves are servicable, but big end bearings are severely worn. So the engine would have been knocking when it was running. The most concerning thing is the state of the oil and the foreign materials in it. I'm really glad we didn't decide to attempt to run this engine before rebuilding it.
Our channel sponsor ww.anglo-agripa... will be supplying the parts for the rebuild and now we can start ordering the parts.

Very pleased that the restoration has moved on to rebuilding the engine. Last summer I purchased the complete kit from Anglo including the crankshaft and I am now ready to commence assembly. I have a particular interest in preventing oil leaks so I will delay work until I have the benefit of your excellent guidance. It will probably be no more than a couple of weeks. You are your son make an excellent working team with Oscar asking the good questions. Best wishes for 2020 and keep up the good work. Jim Hehir

Hi Jim thank you again for your kind words. It is a fantastic encouragement to hear how our videos are of value to folks like yourself. I’m a bit daunted, but I will do my best when we get to the reassembly. I’m afraid it may be a bit more than a couple of weeks, we’ve still got ALL the cleaning to do!! We are very excited about 2020 and we wish you and all our followers a joy filled year!

Very clear instruction on the engine wear and looking forward to the next instalment

[@WaterhouseForde]

Hi Peter, thank you. We’ll start filming the engine rebuild shortly. 👍

Great videos. Nice to see Oscar learning so much and enjoying the experience with you. It's going to be a nicely finished 20 by Halloween.

[@WaterhouseForde]

Thanks David. 😲Halloween! 😁Oh okay then, we'll try to be done by then. 🤣

Hi, I'm new to your channel and really enjoying what I have seen. I've been a long time subscriber to Lance the "Bundy Bear" It's like heaven at the moment for me watching his videos on his tea20 engine rebuild in frame and your videos. I have a tea20 and have all this to do on the engine and some of the shots and angles you have covered are very helpful in understanding the process and ways of working. On the discolouration of the white metal bearings on the crankshaft, I wondered if at some point the tractor has had a modern oil with additives that has caused this. I seem to remember reading that modern oil is not good for old type bushes when I was looking to replace my oil on my tractor when I 1st got it. Keep up the good work. I am a few months behind at the moment but will catch up soon. Regards Dave

[@WaterhouseForde]

Hi Dave, thank you and welcome to the channel! Lance is a great mentor and inspiration for us! I enjoy his style of video and his personality! Of course he actually knows what he’s doing, whereas we’re just hobbyists finding our way through 😉 Its great to hear that our videos are helpful to people! 👍 Yea I think you may be right about that discolouration, to be honest this tractor has not been “loved” much in it’s life, from what I can tell. It’s just as well they were built to last hey! Good luck with your TEA20, these are great little machines, very well engineered and actually quite easy to work on. Keep watching, and ‘tell your friends’ 😉.

Buenas tardes desde España Buen trabajo y muy bien explicado yo quiero reparar uno así que éstos videos me vienen muy bien si usted fuera tan amable d subir o publicar el manual de taller del TE20 me vendría de perlas. Gracias por hacer que estas obras de la mecánica antigua no se podrán en mitad de una campiña

[@WaterhouseForde]

Apologies Antonio, I don't speak Spanish, but I assume from the few words I do recognise that you are working on a TE20 as well. Good luck and thanks for watching. 👍🏻

[@richardjohnson307]

Do you know if there are washers under the cylinder head nuts?

[@WaterhouseForde]

Hi Richard, most definitely. They are quite thick flat washers. Hope this helps. 😉👍

[@richardjohnson307]

@@WaterhouseForde thanks, just about to refit the cylinder head, I noticed with my head bolts - 4 washers, strangely, unfortunately i never photographed the removal. As reference I watched your video for clues. Cheers Richard

[@WaterhouseForde]

Ye they have a habit of going missing 🤣. If you measure the ones you have, you can normally order replacements online. I use Spalding fasteners. They seem to carry most nuts, bolts, washers and studs etc. Delivery is usually quick too.
