Will it start? Ford Industrial 4500 loader tractor and Ford Industrial 420 backhoe

I’m glad that the gas 3 cylinder didn’t turn over because it’s very likely that the cylinder could be full of gas and it may have bent a connecting rod had it turned so I hope you put something over the exhaust pipe to protect it and I would drain the oil pan to see if there’s any anti freeze in there in which case all it may need is a head gasket and maybe the cylinders were full of anti freeze and a little heat and some big clamps and a little welding would be a really easy fix to repair that loader and it cracked on top which is the easiest way to weld so my opinion is that there’s lots of potential to get it back in action if I didn’t live so far away I would be very interested 😀🇨🇦

Wow that was some very sad footage of that machinery left there to deteriorate in the weather

[@JTsBuildsandFields]

I know it kills me to see “good” equipment sitting and rotting away

That gas engine was slowly rotating. Don`t give up on it.

Yessur I was planning on coming back to it eventually and seeing if it would try and run. I will definitely take video of it when I do, thanks for the comment man
