Will it run? 1966 Ford 3000 tractor sitting for years!

[@ronaldvanhorn9558]

I just love tractors! Sometimes I get to borrow my neighbors tractor for a job around the house. He is a good neighbor and very kind! You have some cool vehicles coming up, can't wait to see them. Great job getting the tractor running, Richard, and Christina you sure know a lot about the mechanics of a car. Your a great helper for Richard! Many blessings to you both.

[@jaystax8370]

I actually like how Christina is learning so much as you guys progress. Most of the comments and or suggestions I hear from her are very intuitive and accurate. Good show.

[@christinarust6957]

❤❤❤thank you!

[@tombob671]

Yup she is one smart lady! Richard and her are a perfect couple.

I have really enjoyed your show. I wish I was from that part of Tennessee you are from earth I grew up in Memphis.

[@christinarust6957]

Thank you Thomas. Much appreciated ❤

[@paulmeinke9461]

Good job. I learned to drive on a tractor, a bit older than that one but a tractor none the less. 😊

[@steveengberg7170]

Contest, good job on the tractor

[@kenwestern2821]

Another great video from the best team on KZbin! Thanks again!

[@whattherust]

Thank you for the kind words, Ken.

[@billywird]

Well it looks as though you got yourself a good tractor. With a lot of TLC and such it will make a nice addition. Wiring is going to need a complete working over and the little things that cause problems I am sure you will address. Looks as though it is going to take a quite a bit of work to straighten out and it appears that your front sheet metal is damaged. I'm sure you have seen in the comments that, that is a tire depth gauge you were holding at first.🥸👍👍👍👍👍

[@mikegonzales7234]

Love your show

[@christinarust6957]

[@thomaspaxton935]

Thanks very much, Thomas.

[@bigt2044]

Good job. Thanks

[@KeithRutledge-t1w]

Hi Christina and Richard ! The Ford tractor was a cool project for this episode ! I'm currently working on a 1926 model T Ford. The similarities in that old T and a tractor are pretty evident. I always kinda wondered if that was all coincidence , or maybe by design , given how much of the United States was rural community back then. If you could drive a T you could drive a tractor and vice versa. Christina you mentioned painting , if it were me , I'd pressure wash her good , maybe a little wire brush action and go with a good brush and a quality machine paint. That might make a Good video on its own ! Enjoyed ,Enjoyed ! Bless ya !

[@LawrenceClark-qn9mp]

That cool tractor will really come in handy moving those, not yet running vehicles around, in & out of your shop- Good Deal! Great video! -Larry

[@christinarust6957]

So true! ❤

[@garyjones2582]

At least it's in the shade..lol.. We had a Ford tractor where i worked... I believe it was a 5000 series.. Do the maintenance and it will last a long time... Thx for bringing us along on another adventure... Take care my friend and God Bless...

Love your channel, and your knowledge Richard. I'm just an old country boy, and I've done a lot of "bailin' wire n' bubblegum " repairs in my younger days. You do things right, and I learn something with every video. Thanks again!😅

[@georgeweisbrod1876]

Carbs are known to have float that fills with fuel and sinks in bowl, carb fills and drains into engine bores. Since tank is above carb and air intake. It all fills into manifold until fluid level equals

[@kevinlara9170]

Great show love the tractor

[@gman1141]

Keep up the the revivals guys. Love your tenacity!

[@BillBAILEY-gv1no]

Great job Richard and Christina

[@jon916]

enjoyed the video. it is a neat little ford tractor. m y grandfather used to own a tractor (think it was ford) built in the 1930's.he had it for 50 years before the block busted from a freeze in southern Oklahoma (believe it or not lol). tractor was eventually given to a friend of the family. who lived just up the road. I do not know what finally happened to it. my gransfather passed away in 1991. family friend passed away a few yearss ago. tractor is probably sitting in his pasture rotting away. :) we on disability, can't afford your shirts but maybe some day. we enjoy your videos. you have a beautiful property (smile).

[@DanC.-jl4ro]

Christina seems to enjoy learning more and more about mechanics. Good job!

[@williampengelly8371]

Great tractor revival.

[@paulwillson907]

Love watching you both reviving the old ones, tractors cool 😎 too

[@tomcooney1584]

I can't wait to see the maverick running

[@dilipkumaravichal5818]

Great jobs both of you. Keep doing good work.

[@gayla43]

Grew up on a farm and always was around tractors. It was so fun to watch this one come to life. Keep up the good work. Love watching you too. Good job Kristina too.

[@JohnSchaffer-m8o]

my wife and I love your show.

[@billthompson5634]

That whistle is a good idea. I took off the valve cover to watch the valves because I didn't want to be 180 off. Still had issues because I thought the intake was the smallest one. Learned a lot, it's the kind of lessons you never forget.

[@Mickeymotormount]

Nice job on getting that tractor running.

[@christinarust6957]

Thanks Mickey!

[@BrodieBr0]

53:33 Christina: ''Maybe the float'' Richard: *taps carb* Tractor starts! Now that's teamwork and shows Richard is a great teacher and Christina and equally good student. Awesome will it start guys looking forward to the upcoming ones especially that bus!

[@billsocha1058]

Great video! I would have never guessed the gas cap was the culprit!

I love this I have a 3 cylinder diesel tractor

[@RWBoykin]

Loved the tractor episode. Hopefully you will do a restore on the tractor, ie, repair dents, worn parts, and paint in a single episode.

[@johnywolfs104]

Nice work. The words that stay in my mind is that she was looking for something big to move around.

[@stevenwebb9972]

Another great video I grew up running an 8n ford.

[@chuckbaker5250]

You make everything look so easy to fix . Thanks

[@Jason-ny1vs]

Great video! My grandfather had one just like it. He kept a huge garden for years with it

[@ronbunker5778]

That is so satisfying to get an engine running after all the work to get there! That tractor is a great find! I have an '85 Corvette I picked up and it has taken me 2 weeks to sort out all the issues that kept it from running. Someone had messed up every system. After all the fixes and cranking it finally started and now will start each and every time when cranked.

[@LarryTallman-d4m]

Love old tractor videos

[@jameshinkebein6728]

Great video,very much enjoyed the tractor resurrection getting it running.

[@kevinj2412]

The first tractor I ever drove was a 1963 4000 Ford, I was 12 and it was my uncles and he put a disc behind it and turned me loose in a 200 acre dryland field. I had a blast and didn't want to quit for the day.

[@eladfitz5673]

$700 dollars, what a great deal and the PTO can do so much

[@christinarust6957]

Agree! Thanks for watching ❤

[@MarkMccalman-o9q]

love the tractor well done guys from Aus

[@johndavis3231]

Well, win or no win, I enjoy what you do. As an old mechanic, I am still inspired , and yes it does take all the brain taxing efforts to get old engines to come alive again. I sometimes miss that rewarding feeling when all the effort pays off. I catch myself smiling when Richard makes it happen. More power to you and keep the ball rolling .

[@scottcoppersmith7735]

Great show
