Massey Ferguson 1800 vs chisel plow! Will it survive 40 acres?

[@canvids1]

I have watched you with that Tractor since bringing it home and after all the work money and time, you have a right to be proud.

[@jtsbarnngrill6873]

Thank you! I appreciate that

[@frankwrogg2515]

Love that you not only restore this equipment but actually use it and show it in the field. Please keep including the field use also.

[@jtsbarnngrill6873]

Right on! It all gets used around here!

[@tonybunch543]

I’m glad you are getting those monsters working after somebody gave up on them. I’m partial to the Massey tractors, also.👍

[@jtsbarnngrill6873]

Right on

[@billhartl6601]

I'm a Deere guy, but after watching your channel, I saw a small MF with front wheel assist and a loader near me . . . Guessing 35 - 40 hp tractor . . . I'm gonna have to stop and check model number, etc. . . I may have caught a bug watching you

[@dmindi1773]

It's great that you use your projects and not just let them sit in the barn. Happy that your season is going well!

[@jtsbarnngrill6873]

Thank you!

[@bradwieczorek3105]

Can not tell you how much I appreciate your channel. Grew up in the 60s and 70s on JD 4520, JD 6600, Massy 1805, and Massy 760. You could say we kind of had a calico farm. We have a cousin who had a Massy dealership back in the day, so dad gave him some business. Also had IH, but mostly tillage implaments.

[@jtsbarnngrill6873]

Right on! I was raised on the 1805, 265 and a 510 combine in the early 80s

[@460V8]

That 1800 is a beautiful piece of machinery. 👌🏻💪🏻

[@jtsbarnngrill6873]

Thanks!

[@ToddWoodward-r8h]

Love hearing that cat purr. Thanks for sharing!

[@jtsbarnngrill6873]

Thanks!

As a 30-year truck driver we filled our fuel filters up with dexron ATF. It helped clean the injectors.

[@jtsbarnngrill6873]

Interesting! I could see that doing the job!

[@tracyellis7281]

Enjoy your videos my friend and appreciate the vintage 🚜 tractors still getting it 👍 Done

[@jtsbarnngrill6873]

Thank you!

[@trev583]

I love watching these old tractors work. Keep the farming videos coming

[@jtsbarnngrill6873]

Will do!

[@davidwittmer8806]

Thanks again JT for letting us watching you in the field using one of your awesome tractors. Here’s to a job well done 🍺

[@jtsbarnngrill6873]

Thanks 👍. I appreciate that!

[@MichaelBowen-mk6cg]

I love it man i love watching the older machines work and work great, excellent show today!!! As always

[@jtsbarnngrill6873]

Thank you 😊

[@karlfischer1011]

i've heard the tight engines are the ones that seize. pretty amazing the tractor went from scrap to workhorse :). JT is the hero they needed in the Brave Little Toaster junkyard scene :D

Thanks!

First gear, it's alright.. Second gear, I lean right... Third gear, hang on tight..... Nice run... !!!

[@jtsbarnngrill6873]

Right on! Thank you!

[@charleswelch249]

You gotta nice tractor there, the 1800 turned out amazing and wants to be working. Great video JT and can't wait for the next update.

[@jtsbarnngrill6873]

Thanks 👍

[@PaulChesnut]

Using that older equipment is awesome!! You do t need all that technology, automation crap that you have to take to a dealer to get fixed cuz they are the only ones allowed. There is more pride in using the older machinery it was built for, true work horses. That is so AWESOME!!!!!

[@jtsbarnngrill6873]

Bingo! And the pride of rebuilding them all myself!

[@LonghornRailfan]

Damn right, the 50 year old tractor was up to it! I enjoy the farming as well as the projects. Congrats on the yields! Maybe the weather gods will smile on you next season as well.

[@jtsbarnngrill6873]

Thanks! I can hope!

[@kentrecker4062]

If you cover the center threaded hole and fill the filter from the outside holes you will essentially filter the fuel as you pour it in. A CAT technician showed me that their big fuel filters come with caps over the center hole so you can prefill without sending dirty fuel to the injection pump.

[@jtsbarnngrill6873]

Right on! Someone else mentioned that earlier, and I will use that piece of advice!! Thank you!

[@garyfeltus9801]

Every thing is a project J T. Weather your farming or working on a tractor. It's always been good content. Thanks for sharing.

[@jtsbarnngrill6873]

You got that right!

[@LeslieOtwell]

Great running old tractor right there!

[@jtsbarnngrill6873]

Thanks 👍

[@StevenMeckstroth]

JT, consider lining the floor with mud flaps. Cuts down on noise, heat from transmission and vibration. We used to get seconds from local manufacturer.

[@jtsbarnngrill6873]

Right on!

[@DarkTiran]

I watch for the projects and then seeing you actually use the projects. There are plenty of museum pieces, use the tractor for what it was built! Also I like the Exhaust set up on that 1800; it comes of the top of the pipe, the bottom of the muffler and the small hole in the bend at the bottom. Very efficient 🤣

[@jtsbarnngrill6873]

I appreciate that! But why does everyone feel the need to pick out the exhaust leaks???

[@brentraulston7224]

Former truck driver here. Cat C15. Changed many fuel filters by filling the filter with no pumping. I've done it at the fuel island when gelled up. No issues ever.

[@jtsbarnngrill6873]

Right on! Good to know!

[@CaryGuyer]

Excellent job on the 1800 fuel filter 👍. In the past when I've ran into bleeding issues, I pressurized the fuel tank before tightening up the fuel filter. Works every time.

[@jtsbarnngrill6873]

That was going to be a failsafe option 😉

[@CaryGuyer]

Yes buddy, I understand. It's clear you know what you are doing no doubt. Great Massey channel. Love it.

[@johnkraus5204]

Farming or projects, it's ALL good JT!

It's so awesome watching you getting the ground ready for wheat. It brings back alot of good memories. Thought you might use the 1150 but it would be a shame to get it dirty! Boy I sure love the sound of the V8 MASSEYS. Again thank you for sharing your life with us.

[@jtsbarnngrill6873]

[@ValentineEngel]

The 1800 when warming up smokes like your barn is on fire. My 1500 is the same. Love the smoking old tractors

[@jtsbarnngrill6873]

Right! She does leave a cloud for a few minutes lol

[@northdakotaham1752]

Keeps the mosquitoes at bay for a short time. My 1805 does the same and has exhaust leaks in about all the same locations.

[@richardschaffling9882]

The old girl did a nice job and the way you changed the filter is the way I change it on my IH 454 no air bleeder pump on it but my Chinese farm pro 2420 does have the pump .And it’s nice you are getting such a good yield on your fields

Looks like it’s working up pretty good. And that 1800 sounds really good and it seems to handle that disc chisel well. Great job!

[@jtsbarnngrill6873]

Thanks 👍

[@lowellmiller6663]

Very cool video. Just a tip if you want to pre-fuel your filter and want clean fuel if you dribble it in the parameter holes it will filter before it goes up through the center if I understand correctly.

[@jtsbarnngrill6873]

Right on! I’ll be doing that from now on when I do one

Looks like the 1800 is pretty healthy after all. If you have all you Air Conditioning components left or want to get them working, it’s not a bad job. I have done quite a few. I would be willing to help depending on where you’re located in Michigan. Thanks for the videos.

[@jtsbarnngrill6873]

Right on, this is missing most of the components unfortunately

[@douglasmayherjr.5733]

Red Dot makes some pretty nice kits that adapt pretty well, especially when you have a large cab like the 1800 and 1805. We used a rooftop mounted unit on a semi truck and it worked great, if you don’t mind the look.

[@northdakotaham1752]

The hood almost has to come off to get the compressor mounted and I swear, that hood probably weighs 300 pounds! Not three square inches of plastic on these machines. Everything is overbuilt...like in the old days!
