A good old Massy Ferguson showed up on our yard on Saturday. This tractor is about 55 - 60 years old. At this point it had not run in over a year and would need a bit if TLC before it started running again.
It nicely rolled off the trailer for us, no pushing required!
Happy farm boy!
We started to work on it that night already (as in Jared worked on it, I watched....) once we put a battery on it the starter worked quite well. But after draining the old fuel, and unplugging the fuel line, and adding new fuel Jared noted that the carburetor needed to be cleaned too. Much to Jared's disappointment, this would have to wait till Monday as it was already 10:00...
All trucked away for the night.
Somehow we managed to roll it in there....
By 10:00 or so on Monday morning Jared drove the tractor out of the shop!
He was up bright and early that morning working on it. I believe in about 8-10 hours of work the tractor and the hydraulics were working smoothly!
I love his face right at the end of the video!
I even got to drive it too! Mind you I drive it A LOT slower then Jared does!!!
Fun!
