Massey 1800 steering problems visited and 1105 super-service!

Getting the service on the 1105 done now that it has a little work under its belt, and one step closer to driving the 1800!

[@neptunefarms1994]

I have a 4360 massey. It has a vent screw for each of those style filters. I am not saying it the best way ,but I use a pop bottle with a gear oil cap to fill the filters once they are installed. Saves the back and forth to pump.

[@jtsbarnngrill6873]

I could see that working on these.

Great vidio JT. On my 1135 the first time I changed the oil that tube came out with the oil filter and I had to use a wrench to get it out of the filter. Then put it in the new filter before threading it back on the block. now I see why. hope that helps your next oil change. Enjoy your vidos a lot thanks.

The fuel filters on them are a total swine to get at because the heavy duty loader frame is right in front of them. You will know what i mean when you look at one. Having said that they are a strong little digger for it's size and easy to fix on the rare occasion they need it! Looking forward to seeing the 1800 doing a figure of 8!😊

[@lucasbergfors9446]

We have the same fuel filter set up on the Case 1294 and Fiat 880 DT backhoe only difference being is the fiat has a glassbowl on the first filter while the last filter has a metal bowl while the case has both bowls out of metal, the set up can also help telling the condition of the fuel and if it has any water in it or any other dirt at the bottom that could ruin your fuel system 🙂

[@jtsbarnngrill6873]

The glass bowls are handy for that! Fortunately I haven’t found any water in any of mine yet

[@lucasbergfors9446]

@@jtsbarnngrill6873 that's good, on my Case the lift pump has a glass bowl to check for that 2 days ago i took it for a drive to check the condition of the gravel road it ended up stopping like it ran out of fuel and when i checked the bowl it was all full of dirt and sludge so the glass bowls really do come in handy at times as long as they aren't destroyed from overtighening them 😂 I did manage to clean off what I can with my rag i had with me later on, bleed the system and get back home to drain the tanks and filter whatever came out with the fuel and then put fresh fuel in it, runs like a dream and haven't seen any dirt so far, have been thinking about finding any additives that could prevent this from happening again, do you treat your diesel fuel JT with additives for example ? If so which ones do you recommend ? I heard that the liqui moly diesel additive is the real effective in keeping the fuel clean and improving fuel economy so i'm planning to experiment with that later on and see if that will help with my problems i face, other than that it's very fuel efficient at 6 litres per hour while the fiat is at 8-10 litres per hour 🙂

Nice work; I think that 2nd fuel filter would have gone easier if you would have taken the advice of that one KZbin viewer, & primed it with fuel prior to install; LOL. That M-F 1105 is pure tractor porn; She needs to be in the center fold. Nice job getting both M-F tractors done on what you set out do. That's a big win win. I hope your running a tab on that beer.

Hey JT. That oil tube on your 1105 is suppose to be there. except it should unthread from the block and then use a wrench to unthread from the filter and vis versa when installing anew filter. Been doing it for years on mine. Really like your videos. think there great.

Crafter buggers MF, I bet original engine oil filter was a little shorter...............Engine air filter, being a fully trained MF mechanic in the UK, MF drummed it into us all, the inner air filter, the one thats never checked happens to be the most important filter in the two, it's what they called a Micron filter, takes out the tiniest dust that the outer filter can not. They cannot be cleaned with air pressure, but if time was on my side, I washed them in luke warm water & washing up liquid (what her in doors has to be obeyed, uses to wash dishes !!) and left somewhere warm to dry out properly.

Blowing the dust out of the old air filter doesn't make it new again,,The fibre is impregnated with dust and dirt,,That's why there disposable,,So your engine is sucking in dirt from your old restricted filter,,filters are cheaper than a new engine..
