We run torq guard 30w in all our tractors. We run a 4640, 4440, and a 8130 and it works great in all seasons.

[@cmpcarlos]

Nice video! I Just buy one 1968 JD 4020 in Spain and I will change the oil and filters after rebuilt the ROOSA MASTER injection pump.

[@austinnakaerts4453]

great video. just wanted to tell you that i went the the John Deere dealership the other day to check out there drive green test drive promotion they had going on thinking that i would test drive one of the new John Deere tractors for 2017. Come to find out the promotion was for lawn tractors. Long story short they let me test drive a bigger agricultural tractor so i was thinking one in the 9000 series or an RT. come to find out they had a New Holland T8 that someone traded in so i drove that and now i see why you liked it so much. it drove so nice and was so technologically advanced.

[@DLHFarms]

Austin Nakaerts. Make sure you check out my NH tractor videos!

[@ZYoung-xv9dn]

the later 4020s have the same motor as the early ones. but the injectors are different and that is why they have more power. the oil pan is also bigger on the newer ones

[@bladewiper]

I am surprized with the single weight oil. I have not seen that in many many years. it is all multi weight, 15W40 is very common. so is 10w30. love your videos, Logger wade sent me your way.

[@myronparks3495]

Don't use a crescent wrench to tighten the drain plug, use a box end wrench. It won't round off the corners.

[@jasonkirkland6211]

I love the ole 4020 the ones I ran didn't have the year round cab tho.

[@Lanninglongarmmowing]

The front axle on this tractor reminds me a lot of the 8n front axle.

[@boehmfarm4276]

How often do you change the transmission filter? And I can't believe it doesn't have a spin on oil filter.

[@ethanpipitone3423]

Nice video keep up the good work

[@gavinbelton9460]

Did you warm it up first so that the oil is thinner

[@tdgreenbay]

what do you think of the newer 15W40 oils made to replace the HD 30W made when this particular tractor was made in 1972

[@waterskiingfool]

The cat was checking your work

[@SoybeanFarmer3300]

15W40 Shell Rotella year round in my 1970 4020.

[@two-strokesmoke7289]

That is what I use in everything diesel, some gas motors too.

[@regsparkes6507]

When do you (have to ) change the transmission/hydraulic oil Ryan ?

[@jamesgosling3076]

nice video mate

[@brprider7967]

Did you let the 4020 warm up before you changed the oil?

[@vickipoe3925]

if you were to use 15w40, you can run it year around without a summer, winter oil difference. did you check or change hyd oil? what about your air filter? and get the grease gun out! lol really important to change hyd oil. many a good tractor goes to the Bone yard when you don't service the HYD system. hyd oil is not a permanent fluid.

[@learningtheoldschoolinthen258]

Vicki Poe, you change the hydro every 1000 hours.

[@Jeddco66]

do you flush the block at all when changing

[@KATBIRD1026]

I heard the cat say "lefty-loosey, righty-tighty"...LOL!!!

[@jrsavoie]

Does anybody know the torque specs for the oil plug and the filter housing nuts?

[@kevinwillis9126]

is the sump plug tapered.?

[@remigagne450]

Your cat is amazing!!!

[@jrsavoie]

Where ie the hydraulic screen Part number R27173 on a 1963 John Deere 4010?

[@iowadairyboysFarms]

Our John Deere says to start the tractor up and get the oil warm. Then shut off the tractor and drain the oil. It flows out way faster and gets more contaminants out of the engine.

[@HowFarmsWork]

+iowadairyboys it ran for half an hour before I dropped the oil.

[@iowadairyboysFarms]

10-4

[@JCLawn51]

what winter oil do you run?

[@ninjawasher]

Have you ever considered Synthetic oil good for all seasons and lasts twice as long.

[@Blake_Painter]

in your neighborhood somebody drives a Fendt, or isnt there any dealer?

[@georgiaswampman4542]

I have had to replace the fuel filter manifold before, because I stripped out the bleeder, they do get brittle.

[@therainbros]

I had to replace my harvester filter

[@stuartsplace100]

should always pull oil filter after main drain and it will drain a lot better

[@austingossen3513]

What is the year is that 4020

[@danrossell6375]

Why use a single weight oil? Couldn't you use a multi viscosity oil year round?

[@richardvirchow2757]

Are You Going to Be Working with Livestock anymore?

[@MatthewHoag77]

Ryan, what tasks did the 4020 do during the winter?

[@walterramey8302]

Matthew Hoag is

[@AndersonCattleCo]

straight 30 oil Old school we use 5w40 full synthetic in all are tractors except the old 4230 gets 15w40 and I use Shell 15w40 triple protection in my old International hwy tractor because synthetic oil cleans an engine so well it would leak oil if I used it I could hear Trav busting your chops, I giggled I have a brother to

[@CreativeHuckleBerry]

a good thing is to not hold the oilstick upwards when you check the oil level, becus the oil will go down and you will think it is at Max when it is not. i hadd a friend that destroyed his engine with that mistake, everytime he checked to see if the oil level was good he hold it the wrong way.. enyways great video! soon at 85k subs!

[@chevyon37s]

TwoSteps Ahead your friend sounds like a real idiot....

[@DLHFarms]

TwoSteps Ahead. Your friend sounds like he might be TwoSteps Behind! LOL! Sorry I couldn't resist.

[@CreativeHuckleBerry]

lol, everyone has to learn someday :) it is a problem if you do not learn from you're mistakes :)

[@DLHFarms]

TwoSteps Ahead. That's right! I know I've made plenty mistakes. You have a good one!

[@clarencecornbinder6641]

was surprised it didn't hold more oil, heard that putting magnets on engine oil filters can extend the life of the engine, cats always getting in the way

[@ninjawasher]

What is that hose for the one by the cab that has four pounds of grey duct tape on it.

[@ianbob3050]

I'm sure those are the heater hoses going up into the cab

[@ninjawasher]

Ian bob, I was just being facetious about the piles of duct tape being used to band-aid a problem.

[@simonrichard9873]

Well if it works, it works.

[@thecadester9286]

How many animals do you have?

[@tdgreenbay]

those 4020s are cold blooded beasties

[@SuperJohndeere4020]

glenn s we had one and it started fairly easy.

[@tdgreenbay]

Ours was okay when it was above 50 but it took a bit to crank it but if it was below 50 it would need a shot to get it going if it were below 25 you better plug in the block heater... either way 12v starter would wear the battery down or need replacing every other year

[@minty3774]

What hp does the 4020 have because I heard someone saying the 5020 is about 180, is this true???

[@vickipoe3925]

Danmcgov The 4020 was 90 hp. the 5020 was 140 hp. I believe.

[@Derek_00Mustang83]

What year is your 4020 ryan??? Ours is either a late 65 or early 66 i cant remember

[@TheJdeere4020]

Looks like a 70 or 71

[@Timberland-Farms]

Where did you get that oil can?

[@Derek_00Mustang83]

67 IH Farmer Tsc or Rural King carry them or any local farm store. I've also seen them at Menards

[@TommyMillerVlogs]

Love it...

[@glenkoopman7347]

at 2:53 when you were under the tractor, just in front of the rear axle there was what looked like a shaft with a cover over it. What was that for? a front PTO?

[@yester8039]

4WD

[@lljegs]

it's a mid pto for an side mounted sickle mower

[@glenkoopman7347]

Erica Hartmann. So all they would need to make it four wheel drive is a different front axle a drive shaft and some other tires?

[@glenkoopman7347]

lljegs so it could be a giant lawn mower?

[@ZYoung-xv9dn]

the 4wd on those tractors were hydraulic driven

[@amyshepard2332]

I love John Deere tractor

[@Timberland-Farms]

Hey Ryan, whats your recomendation on building my youtube channel? how did you get so many subscribers and views?

[@farmallskittle]

67 IH Farmer make good videos and advertise your channel by asking them to comment or subscribe I just started about a month ago and already at 55 subs

[@farmallskittle]

67 IH Farmer I mean I started about two months ago spread your name around asking people on other channels you watch to come check out your channel

[@Timberland-Farms]

im at 226 subs now, 80,000 total views, 102 current videos and i started nearly 2 years ago wishing things move faster. just upgraded to 4K resolution too

[@farmallskittle]

67 IH Farmer don't get to excited buddy remeber how many trolls oliver66farmboy had because his channel grew over 1000 subs every year he had 7000 subs when he quit cause of haters and such he grew too fast so don't worry grow slower less haters that way

[@farmallskittle]

67 IH Farmer if all else fails ask your subscribers if you need to improve upon anything

[@mayoman2319]

You guys should get a 4010

[@chevyon37s]

You didn't start it and let it warm up before changing the oil? Contaminates settle out and when you warm it up and then drain it all flows a lot better and the contaminants haven't settled out in places you don't want them.

[@HowFarmsWork]

+Drew w I drove it a mile from my place, yes it was warm.

[@chevyon37s]

How Farms Work Good stuff, I guess I didn't pick up on that in the vid

[@HowFarmsWork]

It's all good, I just forgot to mention to let it warm up first!

[@martyd5819]

Only Dale Earnhardt Sr. could see the air.

[@Speedster-hu5cu]

I'm surprised your not using 15W40 ROTELLA

[@Speedster-hu5cu]

What ? FLYHOUND97 Are you on spring break from Grammar School..

[@sisutrucks]

anyone have experiense with New Holland td5 tractors?. sitting one at the local dealer with 18 hours on it. good deal so thinking about picking it up for a yard machine :)

[@sisutrucks]

its an entry series so rather basic, but i dont need electronis for my use. 3400kg 85 horse. but have a loader so thiking it will work out. now i got a 77 mod international harvester 633. works. but getting tired lol. ill check out your vid :)

[@DLHFarms]

If it's priced right give it a shot. I'm sure the engine and transmission will be good.

[@sisutrucks]

Fiat make good engines. only new holland case dealer and one for john deere in town. and i dont like the people there so going with new holland. just under 50.000usd plus another 6000 for the snowblower. family run a small trucking company. so bigger yard around our house then most hehe. only used a 9hp honda blower until this winter. that take some time lol. have a good weekend :)

[@dh-jh7dg]

[@davidharris6581]

Looks like it has the output shaft but no drive shaft and someone has changed the front end,

[@dh-jh7dg]

David Harris a taperd tractor

[@larrykriete7035]

Some 4020s had a mid mount PTO .I think that is what you see.

[@PietschFarms]

If you wanna sell that tractor let me know!

[@AckermanandSon]

Knocked down our silo today! Would mean a lot if you went and checked out our video on our channel! We managed to pull on it with our 8245 and got her to tumble. Knocked down some of our barn tho!

[@learningtheoldschoolinthen258]

They don't have a bigger engine Ryan, the 4020 had a 404 the whole time they made them.

[@HowFarmsWork]

Same engine, larger oil capacity.

[@mishok1970]

Can I work with you?

[@simonrichard9873]

Don't you live in Russia, Mikhail Mikhaylov?

[@mishok1970]

Yes, i'm live in Russia
