I have a NEW PLAN for the Farmall MD restoration! With this plan, hopefully I will have the tractor running again before the end of this winter. I also spend some time cleaning the oil bath air cleaner and explain how it works, as well as continuing the cleaning of other tractor parts. I am enjoying this project and hope you are too!

To order Pete’s book; “A Year and a Day on Just a Few Acres:” https://www.amazon.com/Year-Day-Just-Few-Acres/dp/149549957X/ref=sr_1_1?crid=2NM8AQPCG3IT5&dchild=1&keywords=a+year+and+a+day+on+just+a+few+acres&qid=1587327049&sprefix=a+year+and+a+day+on+just%2Caps%2C183&sr=8-1

I wonder if there is a business opportunity for someone —- rebuilding the sub assemblies on old tractors, cars or other equipment and then selling them to people who don't want to rebuild what they have.
Buy an old, non working tractor then strip off and rebuild the sub assemblies to overhaul and sell them.
From Pete's remarks, it sounds like some such things are available for sale, but perhaps there is a market for more of them. At the same time, a person could be developing their skills and experience as a mechanic and deciding on more things they could do.
I'm reminded of a kid who wanted to be an electrician but no one wanted to hire him. So HE hired an experienced, retired electrician and he started an electrical contracting business! The electrician taught him the trade and he ran the business and acquired the hours of experience needed to take the test to become a licensed electrician. And he was developing his own electrical contracting business as well.
Fairly new here and been binge watching the MD playlist all day !!!! Love the channel ðŸ‘
Feeding the algorithm.
Good plan, your so talented, after you go through everything, you will have a new tractor.
ðŸ‘🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🗽ðŸ™ðŸ» Enjoyed!
STOP ! Crossing your leg a pulling it up, coming from a physical therapist your hurting yor hip cartridge. So I have been told.
Yes that's a good idea paint the front of the tractor and use it this year and then watch people riding by you will get a double look when they go by lol
Alan Alda meets Bob Vila meets MacGuyver meets Bob Ross! Mr Larson is awesome!
Can you clean inside of air cleaner??
Thank you for this MD rebuild series
It can get overwhelming for sure. Better to piece meal it and do it when you’re not rushed
Sounds like a great plan! You need them for working the farm – Sometimes time is crucial!
I have a Farmall M for sale . Parts machine . Think the motor is locked up . Only thing missing is the starter . If ur interested message me . Thank You . I also know where a MD is that runs n has a home made three point on it .
I like the new plan. That way you can run it a little while and then see what all you need to do to the rear end before you paint.
I wouldn't paint it at all. Make it look like a beater tractor but a great runner
plan B sounds good since your so buzy in the summer.
If I knew 1/2 of what you know I'd be a good mechanic.
How do you like your Quincy air compressor?
You would have been a swell shop teacher.
Hey Pete if you need a junker 656 why not use the one you took the desil engine out of and just put that' gas engine in it I just watched the farming with antique famalls
Where's your son today? You sure could use a second hand.
ðŸ‘
Are you going to used automotive paint or Fleet store "tractor paint"?
Aren't MD's diesel so why does it have a magneto
Thank you…and thanks for the sneak preview of next winters project…looking forward to it! Take care!
Yes those air cleaners are fun to take part Pete 🙂 and seen one rusted bottom were oil hold rust with lots pin holes to had weld up on outside pan to fix it and couldn't get good used at tractor wreck yard! Plus one air filter chamber hose had fix on old the hose was slingie spring but changed to a rad hose style to ! Also 2 hose clamps too used and look nice carb to air box too! Also always like those Air Mushrooms caps to for Air Filter and Oil filter ones last long time !
Interesting as normal. As far as Bondo goes, I used JB WELD on my rocker panels of my pick-up as filler. They still look great. It sands down, and sticks to the metal perfect. Thanks for sharing. Iowa is watching 🙂
You are a genius. I absolutely love this idea to do the work over two years and get it to work thru the summer!
