Fitting a new camshaft and timing a Perkins AD3.152 Engine
I fit the new timing cover after having to de burr it and fit the new camshaft and timing gears.

Aviation cement is good stuff I use it quite a bit, sometimes people ask me what’s that stuff I tell them it keeps the oil from bleeding through the gaskets and if I could I’d put it on my toast in the morning, usually puts there mind at ease! Lol

[@BundyBearsShed]

It does look like vegemite

[@JACKATTACKED]

Good stuff again Lance, coming together nicely 👍

[@BundyBearsShed]

Yeah slowly but surely

G day Ian, we had cicadas in the back ground and 35k wind happening but I'm looking at moving the job out of the breeze but at 36deg C I'm loving g a bit of breeze. I do have some sound gear on order though.

Speaking of rubbish in the oil pan, I am a fan of bypass oil filters which I know are not original to the tractor. Here in the US Frantz oil filters have been made for years. They use a roll of cheap toilet paper for the element. The toilet paper is cheap compared to the brand name bypass filters on the market. The bypass filter uses a bit of the excess oil circulating in the engine to pass continuously through the filter. The spin on filters bypass unfiltered oil especially when they get a bit plugged up with age. My Dad had a '52 or 3 chevy pick up with a six cyl engine that did not have an OEM filter on the engine. A Fram bypass filter was fitted by some one. That old engine was splash lubed so no pump installed either. The Fram filter was a cartridge type. If you can find a Fram type filter, it would be period style for the engine. Thanks for the vids.

g day Dennis, I do remember those Franz dunny roll filters. They did a good job for sure. I wonder why they fell out of fashion.

[@kenh3344]

.the air compressor not good in the background hissing Away. Noticed this on another of your videos. Constructive criticism. But yes love your videos brings back memories.

[@BundyBearsShed]

This is a long time ago and we have upgrades the sound recording gear now, quality is better now a days.

[@kenh3344]

@@BundyBearsShed yeh no worries. Keep calm and carry on.

[@jeremiah4147]

Is cylinder 1 at top dead center when you are timing? When the key is straight up is piston 1 at TDC?

[@BundyBearsShed]

No tdc is different to injection timing go to www.queenslandtractorspares.com.au and download the manual from the technical section.

[@LucasCruz-bv5bn]

I want to see the engine head adjustments

[@BundyBearsShed]

They will be in the playlist.

[@charleshart6992]

Looking good - do you still work on the TE20?

[@BundyBearsShed]

I have not in a while but I am still planning on it.

[@jimknowlton342]

You replaced the timing cover because the old one was cracked right? Is that the only reason to replace one?

[@BundyBearsShed]

Yes that is the only reason

[@tomguy9092]

Do u have any video of a my 165 front axle strip down

[@BundyBearsShed]

G day Tom, No I have not had the opportunity to do one in ages now.

[@tomguy9092]

Bundy Bears Shed I was just lookin for a bit of info on the teardown

How much over $500.00 USD was that replacement, timing cover....?

[@BundyBearsShed]

Only around $150au so not too bad at all.

@@BundyBearsShed Now, that's astonishing. Comparable castings here must bear the load of gouging by the mfg, markup by the mechanic, and the "crush" of the moment....
