Massey Ferguson 65 can we make it run?!

I put a new set of points a rotor and new condenser in the distributor.

[@macmac8249]

You’re a brave man to change out the points and condenser without putting down a piece of cardboard to catch those small screws in case they fell into the grass. Ya’ gotta have a steady hand. A lot of young tradespeople coming out of mechanics schools today wouldn’t have any idea what points, condensers or feeler gauges were....let alone how to install them. Great video....keep ‘em coming...Thanks...Mac

[@tractordoctortv]

yeah I agree with you a lot of those kids nowadays have no clue what a set of points are or what they're for.it kind of saddens me that nowadays with mechanic work his plug it into a computer and then change the parts . for me the fun of fixing old tractors is trying to figure out what is wrong. there's no computers on Old tractors.

Looked like a significant spark out of the bottom of the coil the second time it started.

[@butler386]

Love you fixing the tractors.

[@copperhead6132]

[@Jane-rq7sv]

[@andydundas2443]

Once again "the Doc" works his magic. 👍

[@mr.goodpliers6988]

Good work Dan

[@davidbalvin8112]

Good job. I like your funnel. I have one just like it. Mine is at least 70 years old and a bit more beat up. Still does the job though.

[@justinweaver8787]

Im starting on one of these its got a few problems ive unfortunately already found and even more. Live the 65series tractor

[@russellbarron6775]

Working on a Ferguson 35. Starter is fried. Good luck with the 65.

[@tractordoctortv]

Thanks, you too!

[@MikeBrown-ii3pt]

As long as those are actual Autolite plugs, not cheap knockoffs, I'd be glad that they came with the kit. Even if you don't use them in the 65, you'll use them eventually. Fake knockoffs of brand name parts such as spark plugs have become pretty common these days. The weirdest rebuild kit that I ever recieved was a "bottom end kit" for a Ford Windsor engine that didn't include rod and main bearings but did come with a new crank and rods.

[@WaynesAdventure]

Nice 👍

[@gobig1416]

Yeah I see doc these are the videos that we want you to make good job on getting that old girl back to life more of this stuff kiddo

[@wotrulke5868]

You’re the tractor wizard for sure 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 nice video 👍🏼

[@BIBSTERSrepairshop]

Looks like it was a pretty good deal

[@tonyhester9262]

Added bonus, dude.

[@paulpochan9631]

Plugs were a bonus from a fan....

[@rdaw33]

Glad you got her going!.....However, when you were cranking the engine over there is at least one cylinder that has no, or low compression. You should address that problem before it hits the lot......Enjoyed the video!!

[@tractordoctortv]

Thanks for the info

[@tonyhester9262]

In 50 years ofmechanicking never seen a tune up kit with plug wires

[@thomascruff786]

With that old fuel you should have put a can of seafoam in it.

[@hugoaplancartel]

What year is this tractor. Thanks

[@daviddelaney5180]

How much is gas and diesel there? About $3 per gallon here in VA.

[@tractordoctortv]

I believe here in Kansas is about the same.

[@Rabbit-ge6ns]

Has he sold the MF-65 if not how much is he asking

[@tractordoctortv]

No he has not but don't quote me at this but I think he's he's asking 800
