such tractors were manufactured in the Soviet Union at two plants in Minsk, Belarus (named “Belarus MTZ”) and in Dnepropetrovsk, Ukraine (named “Belarus YuMZ”). the latter were made in the same factory with intercontinental ballistic missiles. so, you have a little part of "Cold War"!!!)))

[@metam0rpheus]

@@chrisj197438 actually it's name is abbreviated from russian names of production plants. in this case it is MTZ from "Минский Тракторный Завод" (mʲˈinskʲɪj trˈaktərnᵻj zɐvˈot). but in USSR some parts produced in one place (somewhere on the map) and carried through the country to the final compilation place. but most of the factories were related to the defense industry.

You can come up with a new name for the tractor, but here in the Dnipro city when we talk about missiles of our plant we name it the "vertical take-off tractor"))) about the name, I think you can call it "a piece of iron that could be a rocket"

[@johnr8476]

Belarus was part of the USSR had the KBG head quarts there, pronounced bell -a- rouge, They have some of the best farm land in the world there, kind of like the land in central Ill. My local International dealer sold a few of them in late 70s early 80s, the ones they sold had what looked like a counterfeit Deutz air cooled engine, castings were pretty rough looking, don't know how good or bad they were. The one you have looks a lot better that the air cooled ones.

[@MudRFunR]

Wow, that Belarus runs quiet. I serviced Belarus tractors back in the 70's. The first time I ever started one, it sounded like the engine was about to rattle apart. 80's is much quieter. Great video!

[@m.s.l.7746]

The camera flattens out the highs & lows too..

[@MudRFunR]

@@m.s.l.7746 It really didn't sound like a lot of injector clatter either. The older ones were good tractors but loud clatter.

[@m.s.l.7746]

@@MudRFunR i figured as much since many diesel engines suffer from this & thought you'd be aware of this common "problem" too, however, depending on the audio equipment being utilized the end result can vary quite a bit... The main thing this effects is the higher decibel noise & doesn't always bring everything down equally, sometimes even by design. Point is you gotta be careful using sounds from something thats altering them for the average videos benefit & not that of someone trying to pinpoint one thing based on that sound... Such as diagnosing a rattle or knock. If the injection pump looks to be of a different model or design then your probably correct in your assessment, however if it seems to be the same model then either you have experience with examples with issues or the sound is leveled off above a certain range.

Back in 90's in Romania,right after we get rid of comunism,i had like 6-7 years...My grandfather was president of agrar industry,in comunism.in a region of country,Moldova,called CAP(cooperative agricol of production). He has to entertain and produce cereals,and for that he has under his inventory,like 500 UTB tractors,120 CP12 combine,and alot of other stuff and attachements. Because Ceausescu order people to eat almost garbage,and production to be sent over boarder for money,in the farmland kitcken,cheapest food was potatoes,and polenta,a thing from corn flavour...but my grandfather being to comand,he always feed his operators,with fried potatoes,and bread,from products people work the soil. But there was a issue,where the hell to put wasted cooked oil...because if the security militia,found out,he was send to jail,for not respect orders...so they put wasted oil in tanks,and when tractor running,left behind a pop corn smell from exhaust...I have and today a UTB tractor saved from there,as in 90,after Ceausescu vas killed,people just left work back,and party,untill today. We have alot of CAP bases with UTB tractors and not only...left to rust or in aim of gypsies for sell them as metal parts for cash. Sorry for my english isnt my native language.

We use to haul those new after the fall of the Berlin Wall and they were allowed in. Pick them up in Baltimore and truck them out. Them were a rough finish tractor even new. I’m shocked to see one still in operation as rough as they were. We would laugh how they were equivalent to 50’s tractors. Lot small farms bought them as they were fairly cheap.

[@One-Crazy-Cat]

On other words.... Odds are very strong I may have been involved with that very same tractor brand new. Was only 3 of us running them nonstop for couple years. We would pickup 4 and drop them mostly 1:1 at the farm itself. Couple went to dealers.

[@One-Crazy-Cat]

I do know the us government has a pile of these late 80’s early 90’s tractors in their storage as they bought something like 10,000 units to spur the economy after the wall lol. They in usual government fashion had us ship them to a warehouse somewhere. I’ll bet they are in mothballs brand new still.

Battery, 2 boost packs plus jumpers from a running vehicle. Dump half a can of either in it and it would be like starting a new JD from the same age range!

[@not_me3286]

Reminds me of when I repowered my little JD 2510 gas. Found a highway construction cart with a 276 turbo diesel 4 in it, hadn't run for years. Smoke all over the place. Thought I checked everything but missed the wasp nest blocking most of the intake tube (it was an air compressor cart, the pump had a tie in after the very large air filter, they got deep in the tube through that opening). Easy swap into the tractor, still runs 15 years later with no breakdowns. FYI, many White brand tractors (if you've heard of them, Oliver before that) that came with Perkins engines can easily be repowered with the Cummins engines out of pickups/trucks. Few different mounts and what not can just be ordered. They are easy to work on, actually decent, and cheaper than the "popular" brands. Smaller like model 2-105, heavier like 2-135.

Thats a nice looking tractor for it's age, One of those thats a bit older is actually what i put the Perkins V8 in for tractor pulling. we used to be dealers so i've fixed quite a few of them. What do you know about the hydraulics not working as there is a pump engagement lever down on the bottom right side of the hyd tank in front of the dashboard just under the air filter. if thats out of gear the main hyds don't work, I had one loose a tooth off the drive gear to.There's also a flow control valve under a plate on underside left hand side in the main hyd block under the dash that can stick if it gets shit in it. that will make the main hyds totally dead, I've had guys say they need a pump without diagnosis as they don't want to pay shop time when that happens, I've only ever put 4 new pumps on in 25 years. 2 were cracked and 2 worn out . You might find the steerings heavy to as it's running from oil in the tank just in front of the radiator filler, they leak out and the systems not full power steering it's a power assist. If you want to know anything send me a message and I'll see what I can do for you. Regards Robert

Hey Westen and Garrett. My friend Lincoln from Canada wanted to share his comment. Great video Westen. You made some very interesting points to remember when attempting to start equipment that has been sitting for a while. 1. Fresh fuel is important. 2. Check rotor, distributor & points . 3. Clean plugs & regap if necessary. 4. Clean electrical parts such as battery terminals & check for important grounding. 5. Change oils & fluids. Install new filters all around. 6. Fresh fully charged battery is a must. 7. If in doubt, contact your Canadian FB friend for some further advise !! A work shop & adequate lighting is a further bonus.
