The engine sump on this tractor appears to have been made in January 1967 so I would assume this is the year of the tractor, the offset from centre speedometer also confirms this. Great to see a very original looking 135 still doing the job for you that it was made for after 50 years.
good old tractor the 135 is. I have a 1973 135 here in Canada. its a uk mod they sold the uk mod here in Canada in the 1970's. the island I live on is full of 35 and 135 masseys ever farm had one or has one. I use mine for blowing snow
+thefunkyfarmer my uncle is a pig farmer and the same thing is happening to us over in northern Ireland they are importing foran pork and the price are very low at the minute aswell we are getting £30 less than we were last year for are meat but we aren't staging protest but I believe we should just like you dairy farmers are doing to be herd and to show the supermarkets what they are doing to us farmers. if you read this thanks enjoying the videos keep it up
Matthew Johnson I've come to the realisation that having say a modern compact utility tractor is not as good as as having a small No of 135's and also a MF 2 & 3 series (preferably with power steering and a single set of SCV's). Yes, they are old, but they are reliable, easy to maintain repair and service and you don't get Digital Error codes or Software. For a small holder like me, with sub 20 acres, I'm going old school. I can get parts on ebay etc dirt cheap, so i drop £500 and buy multiples of everything like filters etc. I'm going to pimp one of mine 2 series, and do a complete OTT upgrade, with simple electrics, LED lights / light bars, non-stick paint on the arches ;)
ahhhhhhh I needed to see the order that the rubber things and spring go back in the housing. I bought one and somebody had done it wrong and I'm not sure how it should be
@@jasonprice7707 I had ordered really nice square O rings and stuff and it blew out 2 more times so I just bought the spin on oil filter mount. It was used on later ones and you can buy new reproduction ones with a filter for like $30
I've been in my job for nearly a year using a 135 and from what I can gather the filters havnt been changed in 10 and it.only.stopped working yesterday. All we did was.pump the diesel through and happy as Larry. Think it shit my boss up though and it'll be having a filter change soon haha
That's a good question. Having both new and old tractors I would say I preffer the new tractors for comfort but the old ones are better to work on as they are very basic mechanics. The trouble with the new kit it that a lot of it has electronics that can't be repaired
Yeah I'm restoring a 1973 David brown 995 and it's like a best friend to me. But I'm the same as you I love the comfort of the new kit but still the old kit is the best.
why you don't wash tractor after finishing work? I hawe deutz 4006 from 1975 and i work with him 20ha i work the land whit that small tractor only 40hp buth after every job i wash him and after 250 hours of work replace oil and filter, Nice chanel you have on yt
Hi mate very good video I really enjoyed it. One thing I noticed and just wanted to ask you a question. Normally when I service my car and fill it with oil to the max mark I run it for a few seconds to fill the filter and usually the level on the dipstick drops so I top it off just to finish. Is it different with your tractor?
Great vid but why don't you write the no of hours on the filter instead of in the book when you service it! That's what we do on our New Holland and I find it handy!
I write the hours and date the filter was changed on the filter houseing with a Pentel Micro Correct tippex type pen and write the hours and date in the handbook with a biro pen as well. At a glance on the filter you can see when the oil was last changed without going to look it up in the handbook but the handbook record provides a nice service history.
another great vid mate do you use the 135 in the field at summer time or is it used just for yard scrapeing it does the engine good to ava good run in the field every year
Poorest work/video/................................... To wash before will be very inteligent and!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! BBBBBBBeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrkkkkkkkkkkk
Don't agree. Have spent at least 10k hours driving a 135 . ploughing . mowing baling. when 135 was released it was small livestock farmers godsend. a tractor that punch well above it weight and to resign it being covered in muck 24 7 is in my oplnion a crime
i'm a small livestock farmer. Its been our yard scraper tractor for 35 years. How is that wrong? It wasn't built to be used as a museum piece and is still in better nick than many. If someone wants to restore it in the future the parts are all available so what i do with it now makes no odds
