Hello Hank, Dub and Zee. One thing to look for on the older Fords was the orange or red “Kill Knob”,which is where the choke knob is usually located on the gasoline tractors. Sometimes the cable will act as though it is moving but not moving at the proper area of the injector pump. As you are well aware Hank,,If the injector pump is defeated it is not going to do anything at all. With no traces of smoke coming from the exhaust, It’s worth taking a look at for good measure. I would say that the rings are completely stuck and not building up any compression whatsoever. Regarding the metric bolts, I have a 1987 John Deere 165 hydro lawn tractor that I am working on that has all metric fasteners. What started out as a broken hydrostatic transmission belt replacement escalated into replacing the hydro cooling fan which meant that I had to take the transmission mounting bolts all loose and raise the tractor frame up off of the transmission just to swap out what was left of the old fan for the new fan. While I was working on the drive belt, I replaced the 2 idler pulleys and replaced the nylon bushings in the idler arm assembly. A few of the frame bolts were missing on the left side of the tractor frame which I also replaced. I can take my tractor just about completely apart using 10mm, 13mm and a 14mm wrenches. Yeah, I agree that it is crazy for the older stuff out there to have metric fasteners, But we have to play with the hand that we are dealt, So To Speak.

Hank I’m not usually a guy to tell you what to do but watch them girls with battery cables and rings on their fingers!! Those rings make contact really fast! Just a voice of experience and concern 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@franklinleven5933]

You just did tho haha

[@outabeat]

Yeah, I've never seen an electrician wearing a ring, watch, etc. A good friend of mine once said, "I've been bit several times. Not bad which is why I'm still here. Even still, my wife knows I ain't wearing a wedding ring until I'm retired."

[@danieljay952]

Yeah I don't wear my wedding ring I've been doing electrical work for over 20 years

[@ProtonOne11]

I would be a bit more worried to have the car battery connected to the tractor battery and both of them still wired up to the tractor while hank is trying to remove the wires from the starter. If you get close enough to actually short out two live terminals with a ring on your finger, you did miss quite a few essential safety steps before... (As an electrician, you always keep one hand (the one with the wedding ring) in your pants pocket, and the other hand inside a 1000V insulated safety rubber glove anyway, if you are working anywhere near something live at mains voltage)

[@stevem3413]

Teaching young ladies to fix old equipment awesome

[@jasonreese4824]

Grandpa Hank is doing a very good job teaching the grils and the grils are listening to Grandpa brings back a lot of good memories listening to my grandpa I love keep on listening grils to grandpa and grandpa Hank very give up on teaching them love you all

[@billybobs841]

I'm being honest bud god bless you thank you for you and your Ole buddy's videos I can't wish your entire family nothing but the best god bless yall

[@JackPugh-cc8sg]

That ain't no choke it's the cut off

[@lboutdoors8690]

Hey Hank!! Hope all is well. In regards to the first tractor early on in the video .. 1. Verify fuel shut on/off lever is in the on position. 2. Verify fuel flow all the way to injector pump. Note* while you were cranking it over it sounded like it was weak on compression. There are alot more that could be done but to keep it short on here once you verify fuel flow,hook truck to it and put in high gear and pull it off. That way it can build up enough heat and compression to pop off. Hey... it's a diesel man it should start. Keep on you will get it! Lee

[@MrEferrell]

Thh Ford 4600 was made from 1975-1981. Not quite 60 yet.

[@phillipdickinson8557]

That was great Hank and the girls yes it runs thank you great job

[@pupweiller1]

Did you check the pull stop, that's about all that would keep it from popping off & running.

[@bobmartin9518]

I think it is great teaching the younger generation it is the best way to learn. You need to learn a bit more on starters and solenoids hook up and stop all the sparks.

[@ronaldferino3414]

Ilike that your granddaughters are so willing to hang out and work with you that's just cool.

[@bretthungerford1694]

Hi hank this is whiskey from Australia I worked on farms in my mid 20s and I loved it great to see your girls learning things too keep up the good work and God bless cheers mate

[@denismcardle9568]

Push in the stop cable

[@gregdavis8152]

I came to say that

[@coyotiess]

As always a pleasure seeing yall again!

[@alanstant9356]

Getting the youngins involved is a really good idea and if they are interested if course there Hank lol.

[@davida.p.9911]

That first tractor definitely is suffering from lack of compression. It should have at least hit on the ether. Probably a stuck valve, or bad head gasket. Too bad Dub and Zee weren't there to see the second tractor start....hopefully they saw the video. There will be one to start in their presence....don't give up!! 👍😎 Thanks for sharing, Hank!!

[@HamiltonvilleFarm]

Right on!

[@berkoskilandscaping4247]

That top cable on the injector pump is the fuel shutoff.

[@BabyGhost_gaming]

You should take your jumper cables cut the one set of ends off an add a quick connect from your batteries so you don't have to open your hood. Just a suggestion

[@MarkPowell-bz8em]

Ford 600 series was not around in the 60s. They didn’t come out until the 70s and early 80s. That’s a later model because it has an air filter rather than an oil bath. We ran about 8 10 Fords on our farm. We had a 6600, 7600 and 9600. Simply tractors but very reliable.

[@colinhayward9184]

If the granddaughters are like this could you do a grandmother will it start and be as nice to her as you are wit the gran daughters

[@HamiltonvilleFarm]

lol..... probably not😂

[@davekauffman8727]

The starter motor should get 12 volts at the same time the solenoid gets 12 volts, so the bendix throws the pinion into the teeth of the flywheel as soon as the starter starts spinning, that's the way it's supposed to work. Those young women are getting the best education that a youngster can get, experience, the fact that they want to learn about engines is awesome. God bless those young ladies, and you too, Hank 🙂

[@dannelson3009]

You can use the PB blaster to get the compression to go up , but you only hook up the ground cable to the back of the starter and the other ones are to the solenoid

[@Steve-O-78]

Hank, as an owner of a 78 Ford 4600, I couldn't help but notice on BOTH tractors, the fuel shut-off stop was pulled out on both

[@shannonm2689]

Awesome learning videos for the girls

[@williamhawks2372]

I think the girls put some magic. On the tractor that’s why it started. You should bring them to the every show I know they will be a good mechanic should send them to A automobile mobile school

[@JosephRozum]

Hank , I am still watching your videos and I hope you are doing well and having a fantastic day today Sir !

[@NicholasBaker-md6jq]

Hey hank at least Zee didn’t get sparks flying at her & Dub is helping and Zee is carrying batteries now dang

[@HamiltonvilleFarm]

lol 👍

[@gmanley582]

Next time you try to pull start a tractor, put the tractor in a "road gear " instead of a lower gear. What I mean is if it is an 8 speed transmission put it in 7th gear to pull start it. Then the back tires won't slide. I've had a couple of fords just like those and had to pull start them MANY times. They are actually easier to get started by pull starting them - especially when cold and you need to bleed the injectors, too. Don't even need to crack the lines. Just pull it about 100 feet or so at about 5 mph

[@ivomanofresneda]

Tem vela nesse modelo?

[@brandonwilliams7169]

My Uncle had a Ford 4600 and the key okay crank it up and on the left hand side was a pull out kill switch and most of the old ford tractors wouldn’t crank without the clutch pressed and it won’t crank if the PTO is engaged

[@davidwolff8878]

Both girls did a great job the only thing i would inform the girls about the SEVERE danger of battery acid burn on skin

[@bretthibbs6083]

I agree and I know first hand myself. When I was a toddler I was watching my brother test a lead acid battery with a hydrometer back in the late 70's a little acid flew into my eyes and I almost went blind but I was super lucky due to the quick reaction of my brother and mom rinsing my eyes out and having my eyes rinsed out again at the doctors I can see out of both eyes.

[@genereece8062]

Hank your granddaughter is the ones that makes 75% of your show I love it.

[@dalehartley-vd9qo]

Good video Hank you and the girls do a great job on these videos I enjoy watching

[@RockinGuy1994]

Awesome job

[@chuckclark9464]

👍👍👍👍👍🫵🪨 hope you and your family had a wonderful memorial weekend and you don’t actually think you’re gonna make the twins in the mechanics do you lol

[@josh-t4y]

A Hank you forgot to do one thing about that diesel. Check and see if it had spark it had gas. It had air, but you did not check to see if the glow plugs worked or anything. Next time. You're out check. For Check the ignitor

[@maximeteam.french.tf2519]

bonjour tu pas regardé les bougie de près chauffage ci il avait du courent

[@LuigiGandolfo-f7m]

Hank complimenti e molto bello lavorare e divertirsi, simpatiche e brave anche le ragazze complimenti ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@AndrewHCann]

Excellent video Hank :) plus 2 granddaughters too and tried your best too ! Also would check did and compare on compare computer way to it too!

[@timothyboyd7266]

Push the red knob in its the kill button.

[@billybobs841]

1 min in and I'm done can't Handel it man

[@leeradford76]

Like those old ford tractors 😊

[@brly9243]

Hank you're always ignoring the Fact that positive cable goes on FIRST and comes off LAST!!!? Protect the girls from injury Pleeeease !😊

[@adamwagner1987]

I've had a few Ford tractors in my time. Still have a 6600 and 8000 .. the 4600 sounds like valves or a head issue of it womt lite off either. If not the rings are junk 🤷‍♂️ I told my brother pull the starter off that and put it on the 3000. I couldn't believe when zee said that. I was like holy shmolie these girls thinking !! You ll make motor heads outta them yet.

[@200projects]

When one of your videos pops up, I always watching it Even when I wanna watch the other video I like a lot I always watch your video

[@danieljay952]

It seemed like you had polarity backwards on the first tractor but not sure

[@traceymullen3818]

Love that song bird 🐦 in the background.

[@henryminton4760]

Invite Matt and his wife to come down to Florida to do a will it start video with you all..I'm very,very,him and his wife will come down plus it will be like a vacation for the both of them too..

[@RobertGregory-ix6hs]

Hank I think you can make it work for you and you have a good day

[@chuckclark9464]

I’m not a big mechanic I mean I know a little bit but by changing the start I don’t think that’s gonna make a difference because the start is working. That’s just my opinion. I’m not a professional by any sort of, so I said I could be wrong.

[@kylejones2075]

U should not tappy tap cables that can push the posts thru the battery

[@derekmatte1]

🔧🚜 good job team.

[@JackPugh-cc8sg]

It's gravity fed. To there turning it over want help. Check cut off

[@stevenmenary2862]

OMG THE blind leading the blind. Classic example.

[@davesmith7437]

Hank your a good guy you give it your all but your no mechanic but you don't give up easy

[@HamiltonvilleFarm]

Never claimed to be one 👍

[@brad28114440]

Diesel engines don’t have a choke. You were pulling out the kill cable. Which in turn will cause it not to hit on the either bunny as Matt always says

[@philippedescat4884]

Le bonjour de la france

[@CarsonNolt-wq7sx]

Dub and Z gonna take Wiley's place?

[@gmanley582]

Oh yeah, that was hilarious when one of the girls said, "you only had one job " 😂

[@jasonreese4824]

Hank you need to find john deer start fuild or harvest king 50%.

[@200projects]

You guys make amazing videos

[@gradyyokeley9930]

Try spraying WD40 in the intake when you get the starter issue fixed

[@christophercouchman9261]

Where did this music come from

[@sarahforaker6624]

No choke on them fords , only a fuel shut off

[@midnightrunner684]

Is that flywheel missing some teeth where the starter is trying to engage ?

[@1calzam1]

Don't know if the editing was meant to be that way at the start? But your audio when you were telling the story stopped and went away including you talking about the weather was only music. Would've liked to hear the history and your other comments. Thanks for another great video with the girls, they have good personalities and humor!!

[@HamiltonvilleFarm]

Yeah I don't know what happened there. 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@JohnMulkins-vq8mv]

Diesel engines do not have a choke. That is the kill switch you are calling a choke.

[@joemollet]

Bettin the flywheel is missin some teeth Hank since that starter did roll the other one over. 🤷🏼‍♂️

[@jamierushing]

Hi hank and girls from west Alabama hugsss

[@bill32m84401]

there is one thing im noticing your also not checking for spark😇

[@codymccauly349]

Hi

[@robertlaplante3703]

Push the clutch and neutral high low

[@nuetral2374]

HANK its great your teaching the twins mechanics but man way too many ADs in your videos 📹 brilliant content but the ads put me off watching 👀 to the end .

[@outabeat]

Compression problem. And on a 3 cylinder would magnify the issue.

[@fredblogsmac.5697]

the girls are picking up more and more knowledge Hank, they,l be running their own channel soon [ girls start an old tractor ]

[@adnxm53]

❤❤❤bao d mais

[@lanewilkinson-k2r]

Hank, not being ugly, you never been good with starters, lol, but if you did not have the shut down pushed in just under the throttle lever, it will never start. Plus the tank has a pit cock lever to turn fuel off on the bottom of tank, unless it has been deleted before, it needs to be checked for slime clogging it.

[@fatdad5421]

Hank those girls got into chiggers or redbugs yet??😁

[@MARKLOCKWOOD2012]

I sure wish i could get a sure can for my Birth day. June 6th 43rd

[@stargatepioneer]

What the heck is that music over your voiceover at the start?

[@stargatepioneer]

Kind of a weird reverb/echo too. Did you render with two audio tracks overlayed?

[@HamiltonvilleFarm]

Not sure what happened there.....

[@stargatepioneer]

@@HamiltonvilleFarm Good luck figuring it out. That's just weird. Nice video though. It's great the girls are interested to video with you.

[@reedb9039]

Are these the daughters of your daughter who used to do the introductions ?

[@HamiltonvilleFarm]

Yes sir, that would be their mom👍

[@reedb9039]

They look just like her.

[@glennmoreland6457]

And when it came to paying for the fuel........they suddenly knew how to syphon it out... Those two learn fast... 😐🇬🇧

[@HamiltonvilleFarm]

Lol

[@ianholcombe6591]

I love that Hank spends time with his Granddaughters , but I just can't watch it. I'll come back to the channel in a month or so.

Please remind the girls to be gentle with battery terminals
