The 7810 is getting a few modifications, the parts are not cheap and what else could she need before silage at Alan Clydes farm. A good tractor mechanic is always useful with the right tools for the job and John wants the tractor left perfect before the machinery madness begins. A good insight into the mechanical world and knowledge is key to get the job done right!

John. These are the type of video's you should be making. Anyone can make silage video's. These are more interesting. Well done.

[@farmflix]

Cheers Kevin... takes someone good with the spanners and the explanations too though

[@kevinjensen7465]

Thanks John. Granted on the need to know what they are talking about. The new deisel tank vid was a good one. How about vids on dynotesting. How they do it and what the readings mean etc. The benefit/ disadvantages of wheel weights/ fluid filled tyres or dual wheels. The installation of or using a GPS guidance system. Thanks for your above reply to me.

[@magsprettejohn2160]

[@nosteam6040]

What controls the injection in the common rail is the injector,theres a solenoid that opens and close a valve on the injector

[@farmflix]

No solenoid wires = no common rail then!

[@crecorabuckfast]

Best vid so far by ye. Good tidy mechanic lot to be said for it. 7810 will have triple mowers on her in no time

Liked the part when the young lad was saying how he learned to buckrake ,i was the same MF 135 with push off buckrake in single chop with 2 bags of nitrogen tied to the bonnet as ballast best of times .

[@farmflix]

it was different times

[@jameskent5260]

Basically you have a in-line fuel system atm common rail then is you have you go from your pump to a rail of constant pressure which the computer controls how much to throw in to each injector

[@farmflix]

Yep

[@culkeenycharolais8248]

Nice video john.. buckraking for Alan first test?! 😂

[@farmflix]

Might have happened if Alan could find a big enough buckrake!

[@richardkerr1491]

About time. Clyde episode 4 next aye?

[@farmflix]

Yup

[@paulmccallum4229]

Common rail has one high pressure fuel line that feeds all 6 injectors (common fuel rail) and each injector is then electrically fired. You have the more traditional Bosch style pump.

[@farmflix]

which is better?

[@paulmccallum4229]

@@farmflix Common rail is usually more fuel efficient and are often quieter engines due to the exact electronic control of the injection event, Bosch pumps are among the longest lasting most reliable pumps in the world.

[@masseyfendt37]

Commonrail usually has a cartridge oil filter instead of a normal oil filter that's one way of telling the difference that looks like a stanadyne fuel pump

[@farmflix]

Another interesting fact!

[@Oisin1990]

I’d be saying you have a direct injection . 6 lines from the pump to each injector . A common rail would be 1 fuel line from the pump to a “rail” that then splits into 6 lines to the injectors . Direct injection leaves less room for problems as far as I could see !

[@farmflix]

That's the theory at least!

Driverless tractors are grand in perfect conditions but unless a planter can unblock depth wheels or harvester or slurry tanker or whatever I don't see how you can manage without someone there at the field at least.

[@johnyoung9589]

What year is your tractor? Your right it's not a common rail, I believe non common rail 50k quad box is a rare beast. I think it was about 2002/03 that John Deere changed the 8.1 power tech from inline Bosch fuel pumps to common rail. I would always favour the Bosch pump over a common rail system for cost of maintenance and reliability.

[@farmflix]

Registration book says Feb 03... rare for sure... reason John highlighted it was because of the KZbin comments on the first reveal video that is was a pity she was common-rail... but she ain't!
