Hi there currently own a Massey Ferguson 130 on an on going restoration just wondering where did you find most of your parts as I'm struggling to find them myself
Found this because i got a MF25 for free from an 81 year agriculture teacher , engine and drivetrain ok but a bit patina on the hood and fenders.. a keeper at my tiny farm
Hi, great videos i have just aquired a massey 30 which looks very similar to your 25 and 130. I am not practically mechanical but prepared to have a go,is the back end the same on all three tractors. I have an oil leak dripping on the rear wheels and also dripping off the bottom link arm where it is attached right handside as you look from the rear .Are the parts the same as the 25 oil seals etc. Regards Rob
Hi Rob, The back end is virtually the same only major differences is the type of brakes used on each. The oil leak dripping on the rear wheels is from a leaking hub seal. The oil from the bottom link arm is usually the pin has worked loose and allowing transmission oil to leak out. Oil seals, bearings etc are the same on both. On mine I’ve had the seals matched at a bearing/seal supplier Many Thanks
On earlier engines a small belt driven cooling fan but on the later type like this one it relies on heat dissipation from the cylinder head and the 2-stroke oil to maintain a reasonable working temperature
Hi, we have a 25 and we've been looking for a hydraulic fluid level dipstick. We can't remember the last time we replaced this fluid, Is there a hydraulic fluid dipstick on the 25?! Great video, and great little tractors.
good day, i am looking for a part number for the pto engager (?) for lack of a better name. would you be able to help me out with that? cheers Bastiaan
Hello, do you have a video about when you changed the brakes on your massey ferguson 130???I have a 1966 model myself that I am in the process of fixing up
Is there anyone out there that could tell me or have a Hydraulic inlet screen for sale Local Massey dealer here in Perth Western Australia not available any more mine is passed its use by date in other words stuffed Might be one sitting somewhere To those that may not know it’s the long screen that is under the PTO shaft App 290 mm long X 27mm OD I put a post on Facebook group Massey Ferguson French Built MF25,30,130 etc Thank you
Got mine out after a few years and no joy from the magneto. Took it off and put it in the oven at 50 degrees C for 1/2 hour and it came back to life. Don't know why but couldn't think of anything else to do. 😂😂😂
I watched the hydraulic restoration video... do you have any information about the correct positions of the pump regulator fingers and the assembly order? I have a MF-25 and the pump looks the same.
Hi, can you tell me how we overhaul the brakes on the tractor, I have an exact match to yours, I inherited the tractor from my father, but there are no brakes that work anymore, thanks in advance for your answers. Best regards Johnny vetås
It’s a fairly simple job Most awkward part is sourcing new pads The brake housings are bolted to the axles by two bolts one top one bottom Once removed there are two pads one on either side and secured by clips on the back It’s good practice to clean any corrosion of the faces where the pads sit A lot of the trouble with 130 brakes is the brake disc can not move freely on the half shaft so ensure it hasn’t seized on the shaft other wise one brake pad will do all the work To adjust the brakes i jack the back end Up and screw the adjusters until the wheel locks and then a couple of turns back until it spins freely then repeat for the other side Hope this helps Best of luck
Hello from Texas, I have purchased MF 130 here in East Texas and would like to restore it but sadly I am having trouble finding parts, could you please share with me where I may be able to acquire parts to restore my tractor.
25 is an awesome tractor. I have a Massey 25 and my son also has one in upstate New York. I'm restoring my one right now. It's impossible to find parts here in the states for them, I spent the last 15 years trying to find the hood emblem Which is the same as the 825 tractor, unfortunately no luck. I posted a picture of mine on yesterday's tractors about 20 years ago. Keep up the good work love video.
@@annamaydonegan1708 I don't think I've had any major problems. Just like any other piece of farm equipment, if they're properly maintained there's little tractors last forever. they do smoke quite a bit I think it's the low compression it doesn't burn the fuel as efficiently, So that that was mean they are little hard to start but they do start just fine in the cold weather if you use the glow plug in the air intake. I do think the brakes could have been designed a little better but if you are experienced with tractors You already know brakes on a tractor are not for stopping the tractor they're for holding it while you change gears etc.
Which engine do you think is better? I am writing from Poland. I do not know how they gave the engine but I noticed 4 cylinder 30 km and 3 cylinder 45 km. This 3-cylinder is well-known in Poland because we had mf 255 on our market and also produced Ursus 3512, which were based on the mf 255. And also the Ursus 360 3p was fitted with this engine. But is this 30 km powerful enough?
Hi. Your videos are really interesting and helpful. Thank You for It. Could You please make a saparate video on MF130 hidraulics testing and maintenance as its quite common to have problems with it, but there is not much info on how hard it its to fix it by yourself. Thanks a lot. Cheers from Vilnius.
