Initiation Day | Farmall Super M-TA

Initiation Day | Farmall Super M-TA. Antique farm tractor in operation on the farm. Do link belts work on tractor alternators? #farmallfanatic #antiquetractors #farmall

[@blessedandhappy3921]

I think someone loves their SuperMTA ❤. Boy howdy that’s a nice tractor, and every little or big thing you do to make it Farmall Fanatic worthy just makes it that much sharper. When you’re done with it and it’s sporting new rubber all around it you’ll have one the best looking (working) Farmall Super MTA’s around. Sure, there’s a few museum & collector ones out there but you’re pulling chicken coups and 14ft disc not paper mache’ parade floats. Great job brother! Thanks for sharing it with us.

[@williamsnipes7608]

I am sooo glad YOU are the one who got a hold of that tractor. It deserved an owner who would take care of any unintentional neglect you found. CONGRATULATIONS. What an awesome tractor.

[@PheNom1466]

That tractor got lucky! Couldn't of gone to a better man! You deserve each other and what a amazing machine

[@FarmallFanatic]

Waited my whole life for this tractor

[@PheNom1466]

I actually haven't seen those in action before. Pretty cool!

[@RustyCarnahan]

I tell ya what ol bud, every one of your videos, and Pete's videos I watch keep me inspired to get my 450 LP back in the field.

[@FarmallFanatic]

I know someone with a 450LP

[@RustyCarnahan]

@@FarmallFanatic As much as I like my green tractors, I'm really jonesing to get this one back together. It's quite a mutt, but I like it just the same. Wouldn't mind adding a 400 or 450 Diesel to the fleet one day, too.

[@FarmallFanatic]

Yea no doubt

[@Firemandave911]

I put a JD in every one of my Farmalls. The first time my Dad saw one of them he laughed so hard. Great memory! RIP Pops I hope they had a Super C for you in heaven!!!

[@FarmallFanatic]

Right on man

[@justinryan3508]

Tractor looks great and well maintained now. I just recently found your channel and enjoying the video's and learning some stuff from them. I just bought a Farmall 560 gas from a auction about a week ago and working on doing some maintenance and tlc to it.

[@FarmallFanatic]

These tractors run forever if you take care of them

[@LouisianaTractorworks]

You got her all looking and running good FF! I like the JD in the jar! lol Have a good week! See ya!

[@FarmallFanatic]

You too!

[@jpeel2066]

Looks a great tractor. Nice touch with the JD. Can't wait to see it working. All the best 🇬🇧.

[@kenlemke3411]

Congrats on putting your final touches on your Super MTA and getting out into the field. Glad it passed the chicken coop test !!! Many good years ahead with the Super MTA

[@bobpaterson1845]

Great video 👍 my good lady got me an IH cap from the USA it wasn't cheap but it's made of leather with a Leather IH badge on it 👌don't think it'll ever wear out as it's certainly had the rust protection programme 🙄🤣 that is a prime example of Red Power 💥 that SMTA 👌

[@FarmallFanatic]

Boom 💥

[@RLGGIBSON]

Sounds & runs real good, in the south we turn our rain caps toward the steering wheel like you did to keep a limb on a tree from tearing it off while it is up .

[@FarmallFanatic]

Better hauling it on a trailer like that too

[@redcossack245]

Sweet sound, sweet runnin' woo hoo. Thanks.

[@AndrewHCann]

Excellent video Gino :) also myself plus dad always changed Thermostat in tractors on farm to International tractor and combine plus water pumps rebuilt to even gasket too plus antifreeze fluid to plus hoses to even hardware! How now Thermostat and Water pump not working is one is burn hot engine temperature in Middle or higher reading on gauge ! Feeling engine work harder plus hot 🔥 feeling like in hot fire by burn barrel or hot outside temperature is number 2 and burn lots more gas or fuel than normal use ! Also how know belts tension on Generator or Water pump right on low idle gauge on Cold Starts show + side plus fan and Generator or Alternator go round same speed plus belts no skipping to or floppy look on pulleys or stretch more 1/4 play ! Also when put medium or highest Idle the Gauge should read 15 to 10 amps and Alternator not Feeling Red 🔥 hot or glow red on metal! Plus low idle see Screwdriver easy pull off back circle button or falls off got right and when high idle Screwdriver sticks on don't fall off stays on got all right Boom 👍 ! Like new style red belts to Gino never used one yet or install and sometime soon maybe on repairs for Red Power Boom 💥 tractors Lol! Keep up Excellent Work Gino on SMTA and let's party for next videos or any Red Power Boom 💥 tractors!

[@halfpintranch2700]

Great looking tractor !

[@Jason1Pa]

Fun adventure following along.

[@jeffreychristen8462]

I like the fact that you work this equipment and respect it enough to keep it in excellent condition, more power to you Red Power of course!

[@dustinhenry6142]

That’s awesome she is purring like a kitten. When you pulled it out of the shed sweet Caroline was playing in my head at the chorus ha ha😂! One thing I’ve had luck in the past on those pitted surfaces I’d use my bench top belt sander and lightly apply pressure and dress them up some that way and still apply gasket maker! Looks awesome and a permanent fixture on the channel!

[@FarmallFanatic]

Is most definitely a permanent fixture

[@jdub3475]

That horse barely knew the coop was back there 💢 Great seeing all the things you did to get it up to snuff. Thanks for the videos. I'm think im going to try that link belt myself on my M.

[@Jtwes]

Nice Tractor. The Coop is pretty awesome too.

[@FarmallFanatic]

Thanks

[@McGieHomesteadAdventures]

I’m super impressed brother! You never disappoint! I’ve never seen one of those red link belt before, but definitely looks good! Wonder if they make an orange one??😂

[@FarmallFanatic]

Well I can tell you this much, they make a green one ...and you couldn't give me one of those 😆

[@Iamkcs2c]

TIL ... That link belts exist. I had no idea. Very cool.

[@mce-jc2mw]

nice hats and even nicer tractor!!

[@RoadRunnergarage8570]

I think it's really cool that you use your collection.. keeps them nice and Limber..

[@hturbo1007]

I'll take the blame when that belt fails. ⛓👍I want to give you a heads up on what happened to my SMTA. I have one of those fancy dipstick like what you have on your H. Last week I pulled it out and oil ran out of it. So I put a pan under it and about a quart ran out, it wasn't milky so it wasn't antifreeze. It was hydraulic oil in with the engine oil Come to find out it's the seal between the pump and the distributor. Keep an eye on yours if it was neglected like mine was. My pump didn't have any oil in the reservoir when I purchased the tractor and dried the seal out. Looks like I'm purchasing a new pump. 💰

[@FarmallFanatic]

What weight was the oil that you used in the hydraulics that ran into the engine?

[@hturbo1007]

That's one pretty tractor brother.

[@darolfitch8917]

Whattttt? Link Belt!? Hey Mr. Fanatic, I learn something new every day, I didn't know they still made link belts. I have only seen these belts on old Ford model T or model A's . I think those belt were used way back, before our time Anyway cool.

[@codygaynor2098]

Happy to see it out working! Looks great!

[@jimhanlon7589]

It’s so much fun driving these tractors

[@rudycarlson8245]

Awesome tractor! You were very lucky to get it! Tractors like this super MTA do not come up for sale every day! I have to agree with you putting an in-line filter on is a great idea

[@FarmallFanatic]

Thanks 👊

[@fruitfarmfords8243]

The little deere is a cute touch! Ever notice how everyone hates on deere guys, but don't usually have the same animosity towards all other brand guys? Deere guys definitely have an attitude about them and there is so much J.D. labeled crap on the market, all the posers have hats, shirts and front plates, but half the time don't even have a J.D. lawn tractor! 😂

[@FarmallFanatic]

Lol

[@jerrystott7780]

I've had good luck keeping a few cheap wood chisels around for cleaning gasket surfaces. Have a great day.

[@jamesmorrison1884]

Hello Gino interesting ive never seen a link belt. That would be great for saving time on replacement. That toy John Deere is a great ideal give that extra power. Tractor looks great nice work.

That M-TA has alot of pulling power thats why i like red power 👍👍👍

[@robertjohnson6719]

I'm 70. Learned on a M. We had magneto ignition. Either boost it off or crank. Dad said if it did not start easy it would not work. In this country they would usually pull 2 14 inch bottoms.

Looks great, sounds great, and a nice red belt😅

I just looked pretty funny ..they're Fs are different ..along with the color

[@bernardjones6162]

One great buy!

[@MichaelMielcarek-w6n]

Nothing wrong with that type belt. Easy to remove a link if it stretches to far. Have not heard of boiling a stat for years to check operation. Think that goes back to the F series tractors. If the stat housing was too pitted we could run a file across the face or we would cut a gasket out of cork instead of paper. Don't they make a sediment bowl with a filter inside the glass bowl to back up the screen? Can't wait to see it pull a disk. We finally got a drizzle of rain.

[@FarmallFanatic]

You can buy the insediment bowl filters separately

[@BearCat459]

I’m still sour you didn’t do the initiation with the cub when you first got one.😂

All zerks get grease and the worm gear gets one pint of oil

Yeah that someone is me... I have 2 big boxes ...one for tools that will be collected and the other for garbage and that will be burnt...😆

Didn't you pull that chicken coop with the super c? Get a 4-bottom and see if you have a real SMTA. Nice video thanks.

Yes

[@burtzorn4059]

It works, why replace the cedement bowl . Just a weak spot you have.

[@FarmallFanatic]

Because for 30 bucks, I can have something no other man has touched on my tractor

[@tyfrank3427]

I've never used a link belt. Don't see anything wrong with that. I've never used the gasket sealant on those, either. I just use the gaskets and never had one leak, as they are fairly thick. It sure runs nice. If you disc you'll find fourth gear is too fast. The Supers are geared different than the regular Ms, and 4th gear is a mile an hour faster.

[@FarmallFanatic]

I was thinking about that the other day and I will probably be in third

[@markschwab7829]

What is your serial number on the SMTA?

i run 80w90 in all those old transmission and rearends. hytran is a recipe for problems. but thats just my opinion

The part you left out was that all of those old transmissions don't have a torque amplifier ..that is the x factor
