Hydraulic Horrors - Massey Ferguson 100 series top cover rebuild - Part 1 

Thanks for watching. I have just been so ridiculously busy over the last few weeks.

Thank you, and thanks for watching.

It looks like a tractor again. Thanks for watching.

Glad it helps. Thanks for watching,

Thanks for watching.

Thank you

Thanks for looking in,

Nice of you to drop by.💯👌

I just can't wait to put it to work, and those wheels do look good don't they.

Thanks for watching.

Thank you 😋

It's so close! Thanks for watching.

Thanks for watching.

Thanks, I'll try to film it all.

Thanks. Glad you enjoyed it. He's not got rid of me yet...

@@ClarenceFudWeasel Lord Muck would not discard his friend 🙈

Despite what a lot of people think, we are friends and go back a long way.

I'm going to cover the whole thing and hopefully show it is not as complicated as it looks. Thanks for watching.

Look forward to seein that 👍

When it's finished, I am going to do a run down on what could have been avoided by regular maintenance and not bodging stuff. Thanks for watching.

Thanks! And isn't that always the way? Luckily it is not a particularly hard job, just time consuming.

Last week I saw a really original Ford 4000 and found myself saying how good it looked! Actually, I like pretty much all of the old stuff, it's good when anything gets preserved and a new chance to be useful. Thanks for watching.

Check the state of the lift ram and relief valve, always a good place to start. Thanks for watching

@@ClarenceFudWeasel Thanks! I'm curious to see how it looks inside. My 135 was really clean. Also the 175 seems to have the pressure control lever unlike the 135

Keep going though, it will be worth it in the end, it just might take a little longer than planned. Thanks for watching.

Thanks will do, great channel, keep up the good work.

Where do you get cross shaft bushings from ? Are you fellows in the UK ? Im in the US btw

@@keving2371 The part you are looking for is 1870934M1 I think. Any AGCO dealer should have them, also Steiner Tractor in Michigan are pretty good for that kind of thing. I'm in the UK. Thanks for watching.

The I & T manuals are a good start if you are already familiar with wrenching on old stuff, also the actual dealer manuals can be found on ebay as well. The cotter pins are just in there for assembly/disassembly to save the springs flying around while you are trying to get things back together. As soon as the cylinder is bolted back in place, you can take them out again.

@@ClarenceFudWeasel Thanks so much

It does, Sometimes I just go up there just to look at it. I'll do a quick update on that particular piece of stupidity next week!

Depends where it broke. Has it had any work done on it recently? If not, probably worn control linkage inside allowing the lift ram to travel too far and hit the casing.

It was supplied with 12.4 - 32s, which is what I will probably put on there.

There's now a hydraulic horrors part 4 which goes into this. Thanks for watching.

Ok. Thank's:)

The response control lever on the right side of the transmission case by the dipstick presses the top plunger and alters the flow of oil through it. It is a linear damper to moderate feedback from the control cams to the control valve. Thanks for watching.

@@ClarenceFudWeasel Will it stop flow so the lift arms dont work ? That lever ,,can it stop flow .........

@@keving2371 No, it's just an adjustable rate shock absorber l, nothing more than that.

Something like that... Thanks for watching.
