MM UB Tune Up

New plugs, wires, cap, rotor, points, condenser, and a carburetor clean was needed. I also adjusted the timing on my 1954 Minneapolis Moline UBU.

Just have to say you really have a knack of finding tractor gems. All they need is just TLC.

She's coming right along, Dan. Nice work. And if you ever need reassurance that Jake loves his dad and holds him in high regard, always remember that he didn't threaten to throw that pipe wrench overhand (20:35). It was a touching display of affection. Carry on!

If you (or anyone else) likes to read there's a book called Bringing Allis Home by Daniel W. Workman. It's only 115 pages so it's an easy read. My mom worked with the author some time ago. Even though it's about an Allis Chalmers tractor it's still a good read.

Great improvement in the UB. Just a little more tinkering and you will have it running perfectly. Very enjoyable video Dan. Thanks

I think that stenciled Moline on the cowl bothers me as much as it bothers you.

[@NWIA-qn9og]

So I’ve noticed the older Minnie’s you’ve worked on have a backwards (to me) operating throttle lever direction/position ? I don’t remember our M5 being that way back in the day .maybe I’m seeing things.

@@NWIA-qn9og yes the zb and ub is backwards to the rest

[@jeffgray479]

@@molinedan my 5star diesel is backwards as well. that throws me off.

I hope you save them Firestone spark plugs they were made by Firestone in according to the website the Radioactive

[@molinedan]

@@bobearl7859 I did. They are cool.

I have a 1964 M670 diesel and the torque slips in the low side is there some adjustments that can be made or does it have to be replaced?

[@molinedan]

@@alfredbutterfield5129 unfortunately there is no adjustment for the low side. It is probably your sprauge is worn out. You have to split the tractor to fix. Parts are available.

[@alfredbutterfield5129]

@molinedan OK thanks, I was afraid you was going to say that.

[@samrotheray5805]

​. I have 67 m670 super diesel. My tourqe is good but the rear main leaks like screen door on the bottom of a boat. Lol. Splitting isn't to bad. Just spend some time on stands. It will make life easier.
