Will This FREE Tractor Run, Drive, and Farm Again?

[@jamessmith7691]

Good find and getting it started. Best of all having dad and son time. Now that's priceless.

[@josephneville5572]

Isn't getting an engine running, (after you put a lot of blood, sweat and tears into it), the best feeling in the world? EXCELLENT JOB!!!! Great to see your success!! If a person has never done what you guys did, they will NEVER UNDERSTAND!!!

[@mick00000000002]

I agree mick Australia

[@fosterchild420420]

Glad y'all got it going but that oil looked rough. I think I would have changed that before trying to start it. Also, when you put your hand over the intake on a diesel it just shuts off the air. It doesn't act like a choke on a gas engine.

[@billyhaddock5540]

Congrats Guy's, on finally getten that Free Tractor to run.

[@RealSteelFabrications]

Seeing this video just made me want a tractor…. And guess what, I got on marketplace and found one. Picking it up Saturday to try and get it running! Awesome video y’all, subscribed!

[@urbanitesgarage3299]

What kind you get

[@Type_One_Diabetic]

Make / model?

[@pctek3511]

Making things run on a budget, I can so relate.. Great job guys! I hope I find one just like that.

[@NickRanger]

Hey man. I seen the video was about the tractor. But look at the support you have around you. One lucky man. I hope nothing but the best for you dude

[@RichardBenson-p7b]

Another example that perseverance pays off. But a load of work ahead. Best of luck.

[@mick00000000002]

Duck tape. Was my saver. In life in the bush. 1000km from anywhere. Fance wire is a god blessing. Just them two can save a life. God bless. Old school. Mick Australia 🇦🇺

[@BrodieBr0]

Gorgeous 1st gen Dodge Cummins you got there! Got 2 of them on my farm but no where as clean as yours is.

[@brucelancaster7405]

Glad to see the old tractor running, good job 👍👍

[@IanHotson]

Can we take a moment in remembrance to all the mosquitoes that died! Anyway good job! Always a great feeling when you get something running that's been abandoned

[@benjamino3230]

These are great videos! I love seeing these old pieces come back to life. Keep em coming!

[@rebecrra]

Love yall's videos, beautiful family God Bless everyone

[@edwerts7096]

I loved your reaction when it started. Keep up the good work. I just subscribed.

[@njseashorechas2698]

Nice family, cool Dad! keep up the great work!

[@lucasstiles8012]

Got some high quality camera there.

[@mick00000000002]

It's been a long time. And trully enjoy your family uploads. New products. Yes please. A real channel. ) God or bad. But the truth) God bless mick Australia 🇦🇺)

[@stewartburks868]

I got to go! Can't stand to see them starting it with oil like that!!

[@floridagunrat1625]

Looks like an early 60s vintage John Deere tractor. I've got one that's been sitting in my yard for 15 years. It's gas-fired, and I know that water got in the engine, but I hope to get it rebuilt one of these days and have it running again.

[@rge2410]

That’s a 30 or 40 series utility tractor made the same time as the 4430’s or 4440’s. Made in the 70’s or 80’s. I had a 2640 looked very similar.

[@jorgenringdahl7364]

Good work Boys. Hav e good time wid the traktor. From Jörgen in Västervik Sweden.

[@Chris-jh3tg]

Take a drink every time he says "bad boys..." 😁

[@barryshisler3720]

Great job of sticking with it Old Iron sounding good

[@RODALCO2007]

Brilliant work. That John Deere was stubborn. For diesels it helps to put two large batteries in parallel to reduce voltage drop and increase the starting current.

[@patriotmob3227]

When the engine starts to knock and slow down while you are spraying either in the intake it is too much and is either locking basically it cant compress the atomized either so it slows the rotation and you hear the knock. Stop spraying and let the engine start to clear out before you spray it again.

[@I_Am_Your_Problem]

Trumptards... not real good on da ejication. It is pre-ignition son. Propagation rate of ether is faster than that of diesel, hence the knock. "Atomized ether" is compressible, and thus NOT causing a knock condition.

[@philiplohr2868]

Very interesting. Persistence pays off!

[@andyroo4887]

Great video! Love these old tractors

[@tiffanydoss611]

A flame on a stick next to the intake or a propane torch heating the intake while starting helps if the glow plugs are weak. And a torch down the cylinder of the rings are stuck helps loosen those aswell the. A little diesel and oil mixed while they are cooling works every time

[@MyLifeThai371]

You guys are awesome! Great job!

[@slick66cooper74]

I have a 1979 2240 john deere and man she's fun drive and does some good wheelies

[@richardtravis546]

The back tires are filled with calcium to load them. Heavier weight better traction.

[@jimherman3059]

NEVER TRY TO START AN ENGINE WITH WATER IN IT.

[@garyholt4445]

Something that has been standing for so long, the first thing I would do was change the oil.

[@laneholt4253]

😮 REALLY

[@dandifusco1868]

He says on screen that they changed the oil. Just not on camera

[@mlyniecm]

@@dandifusco1868that doesn’t drain water form the cylinders

[@Gigachadly]

Yeah people always get confused with HYRDOstatic stuff , water in any engine = bad.

[@ejtakach]

I knew you could do it!😊

[@karaayers2867]

That smoke could be all the milky engine oil pushing the water past the rings and burning in the cylinders. Change the oil and see if it quits smoking, it sounded like it was running decent

[@jimlong527]

She lives another day…she has a heart again to build or help out another community.

[@copperhead2534]

I never use starting fluid. Soak a shop rag in gasoline, and stretch it over the air intake. She will bang every time and not lock knock.

[@WhizFlipper]

I like this video because I feel like that tractor is in my price range.

[@donaldhofman5257]

Mine too!

[@FlyingT5150]

Awesome! Congratulations!

[@jamiejames1928]

Well done, hard work paid off 👍👌

[@jazzgarner9399]

Good job getting her running, certainly put some effort in too getting engine going, sounded good. Hopefully ring's loosened up and would start on the starter. Bit more work and you'll have a usable tractor there!!!

[@frankdodson3534]

This bird brain is going to help get a tractor running and he thinks that's water in the tires ok.

[@ابراهیمصالحی-ط4و]

My way of starting engines that have been dormant for years I heat some engine oil and pour it in through the air vent, this hot oil reaches the piston head and causes the compression of the engine to increase, which results in the engine starting easily. But regarding this tractor, it seems that the fuel does not reach the injector and the pump has a problem

[@I_Am_Your_Problem]

Somebody knows nothing of diesels...

[@alexisiriarte9738]

Hello guys, very good video with a tight budget but really eager to make it work, remind me, greetings from Argentina

[@markkrauss5994]

It's not a rear boom. 3 point hitch correct name

[@jimryan5724]

Great job 👏 lads

[@TF856]

When you put messages on the screen it would be nice if you show them long enough for some of us to actually read them. Some of us are not speed readers! Speaking for myself when a message pops up, by the time I focus on it I can only see the first word or two.

[@dyer2cycle]

Just put a tube in a front tire like that, and you won't have to keep messing with it like that...eliminates any potential rim leaks, or cracks in the tire...just check and make sure there are no foreign objects poking through the tire that might puncture the tube first...

[@phase2projects363]

Do a compression test before condemning the engine. Hook up the injectors outside of the engine, to look at spray pattern. Could easily be smoke from injectors. Could be timing too if someone has messed with the engine before.

[@rodneyhahn6183]

Cool video, if it was me, I think I would just scrap that whole front loader situation, LOL. Do ya'll know what model tractor it is? Just curious, I couldn't guess it from what I can see of it. Thank you for the entertaining content.

[@adamorsini4585]

She's definitely got some blow by going on.

[@michaelthrapp8790]

That's awesome guys old tractors they don't build them like they used to

[@mannyfauth4677]

Love your videos thank you so much for this great content

[@lyleminyard2308]

Great job man!

[@antoniskavarntis]

Hello from Greece nice tattoo the man in the black t shirt nice job you did in this track

[@jefferyhubbard9591]

Hope yall changed the oil before running it

[@terje6810]

Well....I dont think so! the dipstick, show full of water. Next time ! before any thing else... new oil!!

[@donavinmullins8057]

That's chloride in the tires to add weight to the rear end for the loader.

[@larrykrise3609]

awsome work guy,s.

[@spiritdewitt6486]

Great job guys ty for sharing

[@michaelthrapp8790]

I love it guys that's awesome

[@RustyInventions-wz6ir]

Hi. Just found your channel..Great stuff. I like it

[@friedclappedout1387]

Well done!!

[@JonFisher-fj6qe]

great content guys

[@edwerts7096]

There's liquid in the tires because it's added for weight. Weighted tires.

[@wojtas-4]

Geniusze nie odpowietrzyli układu wtryskowego

[@jrw7o6_m75]

Those front rims are on backwards, if u put tractor ties back on front rims they'll go on right. But that's a 2240

[@richardschaffling9882]

Does that have glow plugs or is it like my IH 454 and on cold start you have to use starter fluid

[@devenderdevender8876]

Good job bro 👍

[@WaynesAdventure]

Congrats 👍

[@gregdrmax]

May farm again after you redo the rings

[@coyyi]

thats a good idea to keep mosquitoes away

[@Landwirt-0306]

Did you change the oil.

[@akawireguy1197]

That was fun.

[@richardschaffling9882]

It sounds good now fix it up and use it good job

[@vagxania]

ΜΟΛΩΝ ΛΑΒΕ ..... Thanks you from GREECE HELLAS ATHENS

[@edwhipple7551]

Not sure why you won't drop the old oil.

[@anthonyboucher6310]

Well done

[@garrysingh4484]

Great job 👍

[@M.TTT.]

The headlights remind me of the Iron Giant movie

[@axtina100]

Hey from greece nice jop. And nise tatoo👍

[@JesseJorgensen-e3q]

I did not see it in the video, but if you have water in your oil you should always drain the oil first before trying to crank, the water will have separated and will be at the bottom, when you crank it over your just mixing the water and oil and then sending it through the motor. That is a diesel motor and will run along time but for the love drain that crap out first. its no hard done if there is no water in the oil good ahead and crank away,

[@ErikISkogen]

Before your time? Most lifts and such uses those batteries, its absolutely normal batteries😅

[@spasojespasitelj853]

It's a new tractor, according to what I have, and I drive. Haug.

[@darrelljacobjr2120]

Hey! Whaddya doin with my 2010 series John Deere Utility tractor? No shit I have the exact same tractor. Identical as far as I can see.

[@darrelljacobjr2120]

Ok mine is 4cyl gas. I used a jack to raise the bucket then strapped a 2x4 to the hydraulic ram to keep it up. Look up 'refurbish battery with welder' and never pay for a new battery again.

[@freddylageschaar6028]

That's an 68/69 European John Deere 820/920?

[@masterful7574]

What is motor "awl"??

[@DarkVoidIII]

Now that it's running, you should pull apart the engine and transmission and put new piston rings in it. Service it from top to bottom. New hydraulic lines would do that old bucket assembly a world of good.

[@giorgosg.4619]

what model is this tractor

[@Ian-ym1rn]

NOTHING RUNS LIKE A 🦌.

[@randydunn6988]

Good 👍🏻 job

[@stevensaxon8888]

What size jd tractor?

какая же мощная техника у американцев, круто!

[@raysymonds7147]

21:08 min Why havn't you tried the glow plugs ?

[@BobGriff-o9s]

Sounds like you got a rod bad

[@ronjones1077]

Never changed the oil????

[@patrickocarroll6194]

Hot wIre the glowplugs. That would help.

[@jamiejames1928]

Wish I could get hold of free stuff

[@sillygily4435]

Those injectors definitely still bad

please tell me the name and model of this tractor?
