A proper sounding diesel under load. Will look forward to the gearbox video. Thank-you.

Hello! from Kansas. You do a good job of explaining what you are doing!

Wow she’s a quick one 👍🏻watching from Spain 🇪🇸

Love how well these old machines hold up

What a great tractor. Thank you for sharing this.

It was amazing to see this tractor go zooming down the road like that. All of your videos are well done and your English is perfect. I enjoy every video. Thank you

I have the same contact

this is the reason why a lot of old timers loved the 165 it was a verry simple tractor to work on in the field Can you do a video on the turbo please

Nice tractor, I purchased a old MF165 a couple months ago, It was in pretty decent condition when purchased, Just now getting around to put it to work. Did some body paint, repaired the rusted out tool box & minor stuff but hadn’t any mechanical issues until last week when it died, starved for fuel, obvious choice was to replace the fuel filters, and when checked the air cleaner it was severely stopped up surprisingly the engine could get any air, Found the 1st fuel filter & glass bowl filled with rust… from the tank, 2nd filter was remarkably clean - guess the 1st had caught much of the trash, worked my way upstream with the fuel lines, struggling to get fuel up to the next point, the fuel lines still had rust and seemed to be bonded, even when unscrewed, couldn’t pull them loose without concern of damage, Anyway I finally got the fuel to the fuel pump and the tractor fired up, without me having to crack open the injection lines, I used the tractor a couple hours since, seemed like it was running perfectly, then cut out again, The sentiment glass bowl looks pretty clear now & I have fuel up to the 2nd filter, I will check the fuel pump tomorrow in the daylight, I’d suspect debris/rust in the lines making it way through & clogging up the system. I will mostly have to replace the tank to avoid further issues from the rust getting into the fuel system.

Gomoron från Oregon! För två år sedan kåpte jag en lite gård norr om Hudiksvall. I visited Sweden the first time in 1971, made it back the first time in 2011, and farm in 2021. I worked in Sweden in the lumber industry for about a year in 2019 and got to see a whole lot of Southern Sweden in my travels every month. I really enjoyed your video. I am a forester by training, but my real profession for over 50 years has been as a log builder and carpenter. All of this in volved equipment which means I often had to be my own mechanic. I must say that you have better luck bleeding a Perkins injection system than I do! of course, you have a fortunate advantage with the gravity fuel feed to the pump. I have a teleskopiklastare with a Perkins 4-236 NA motor. The poor old thing was in need of serious love when I bought it and last night was when I decided to pull the head off the motor, do a valve job, install a new gasket, rebuild the injectors and then see if the injection pump needs to be rebuilt. My sense is that the old 4-236 motors are about one of the most bulletproof motors ever built. About the only thing better are the B18's and B20's in my Amazons. Återigen, jag uppskatter din video och jag har också prenummerat. Mycket bra jobbat!

Great video. Impressed with the way you explain what you are doing. Very helpful for anyone that is not mechanically inclined. Keep up the great work. Greetings from Canada.

Hello from Columbus Wisconsin, USA....I enjoy your videos. Thank you for the hard work and for sharing with us.

That Perkins is a fantastic engine. I believe its a 4.236. I have seen them in all kinds of equipment and the never let you down. Great job on the pump fix!

A very good video, well produced. Enjoyable to the end. Glad to hear it's still a workhorse in a BIG meaningful way. Now I have to fix my hi/lol range airlines on my big truck. No more procrastinating!

I noticed you drive an Opel. Back in my youth (many years ago) I owned a 1959 Opel station wagon. Tough reliable little car, not something one in high school would want, but it was mine and it did run well.

Great video! It gave me the courage to not only reseal the C.A.V fuel pump on my Volvo BM t430 but also help my neighbour when his MF 375 started to overflow the oil :)

Thank you for showing me how to fix my tractor.

Really appreciate your vids so much better than most yank ones with their annoying habit of constant yapping !!

That tractor is a ripper!!! Loved hearing about it's racing history!

I drove a similar unmodified and new 165 when I worked on a farm in 1967. It was a good powerful tractor in it’s day. Like yours it had no cab and no safety cage in those days. Nice work on the fuel pump which were often a trouble to bleed.

I have the same issue on one of my David browns but now I see how to fix it .. great tractor by the way.. Andrew Mosher

That’s so awesome and what great info thanks brother

Quite informative and very well done! Thanks for sharing!!!

Another great one. Love the tractor.

Wonderful to see your rebuild 💓😃🤠

That little beast can run! I love her!

That is one fast tractor!

Awesome tractor! Must be pretty scary at 60mph! The sounds reminds me of my old land rover series 2A diesel, I bolted a turbo to it and adjusted the fuel rail, it pulled like a train with those mods!

Great looking tractor!

Ours used to do 25mph down hill with the wind behind you. Great job Keep it up thanks.

Thanks for this tutorial. You are a good instruction. Always liked MF tractors.

Good video Richard.

Hi and very interesting video. I did smile when you demonstrated your low range and first gear as it reminded me of my old now sold Landrover Diesel Discovery 2 door I owned for 10 years, Its pulling power in both low range and first or lower reverse was amazing.. I enjoy your videos as I too am an old thing at 73 years old, ex AERO parts maker but retired at 55 to the seaside/ Love older things but embrace modern EV vehicles, but, you cant beat the throb of an old diesel.. Thanks again -- Ian. UK.

My favorite pastime is watching nature documentaries. But this is a very close second.

Enjoyed your video. I also have an MF 165. They are great tractors! Mine is pretty much original, and I use it here on my small farm in southeast Tennessee. Keep up the good work restoring "Yesterday's Equipment". God bless you!

Had to rebuild the injector pump on my 150 Massey Ferguson this week in the USA it cost 1200 dollars but it was worn out never been touched in 50 years can't complain.

Love to see your tractor at work .Looks and sounds great , see ya .

Hi, love your video. Looking forward to the next video.

Enjoyed the video and several others that you've done. Really like seeing those old machines come to life again. Looking forward to new videos. Hello from Arkansas.

Great job I really enjoyed your video and look forward to more videos on your tractor. I have a Massey T20 with a 4 cylinder standard motor company engine and I would like to fit a small turbo to it one day. They were very popular her in Scotland with small farms. I still work my one regularly thanks again for sharing your videos it is very interesting to see stuff like this from different parts of the world. Cheers. Bob.

Hello from New Zealand. Glad I found your channal .Cheers.

I have the same problem of diesel leak on my 165 and was little bit scared to strip it but now I see it's not that difficult to strip it and replace it thanks so much keep it up with your good work and I'm in south Africa

Love your channel, love your videos, love your attitude! Cheers and to many, many interesting videos!

Nobody should be commenting negatively on your excellent field repair.

Hello from Florida. I am enjoying your videos. Thank you

tack så mycket! Great reference for working on my Ford 555A backhoe with similar Perkins engine and Lucas SAV fuel injection pump.

just a note to say hi to your tractor as suggested, Richard 👋😃

Thanks very good .I learned alot

That is a super cool tractor! I enjoy watching you work on these old machines. Greetings from Oregon.

When you started the engine, the closed captions interpreted the sound as (applause), which I think was deserved and appropriate.

Love your videos!

I used to work at a Massey Fergusson dealership in the stores and supplied many parts for 165’s. They were great tractors but be careful if you ever put a muck filler bucket on the front. The filler tends to pick the front wheels up and if they come down quickly onto a hard surface the front stub axles can snap. It’s the only weakness I really know of… you have a very tidy example of the type👍

Awesome old Massey .. I can smell the smoke from here!

Very nice video sir

Wow, what a smokin fast machine! Plow an acre in 3-4 minutes!!

Nope, in just 2. Hehe, a great work horse and strong. But it is still quite small so that is a limit. But plowing and all farm work is a pleasure. /Richard

I’m just about to do the same on a Bedford 500 engine that’s in my Bedford VAL coach. Interestingly…. My CAV pump has a ‘tell tale’ hole in the bottom of the triangular face plate. This is so that you don’t fill the sump up with diesel and knacker your engine without knowing it. Mine is absolutely pissing out diesel out of this small hole - i thought the pump had failed so badly that it would need replacing but no - its just this drain hole and the fact that the seal has probably turned to stone! - great walk though anyway its given me great confidence to tackle it myself

Just discovered your channel. Absolutely love the content. All my favourite machinery on the same channel, stationary engines, vintage tractors, old motorcycles and that wonderful Opel you drive. Am a fan now for sure. Thank you for a wonderful channel.

Hello from Illinois, USA. Very interesting, looking foreword to next post.

Thank you it really helps!! 💞💞👊👊

Just a quick FYI. My brother and I replaced an injector pump exactly like this one on an old Massey loader/backhoe. You CAN put the pump in wrong and it will tighten down. Here's how. The pin on the drive gear is supposed to go into the slot on the pump, but it is at exactly the right place to go into one of the bolt holes, and you can then tighten the pump up to the machine. The way to recognize it is that the bolt holes won't be aligned and the gear bolts won't go in.

great tractor!
