I recently ran my Massey Ferguson 180 Diesel out of diesel and had to bleed the air out of the lines. Simple enough for most people and as it turns out, simple enough for me too.

I'm having the same issue with my 1965 Massey 203 tractor that's been sitting for a few years. This helps alot!

@bjchris8979 6 лет назад

Great job Mike! It's those success that make us feel good and gives us confidence to tackle other project that we might other wise not even consider.

Dear new friend, you saved me a lot of trouble with my old Massey Ferguson MF35 diesel. I ran it out of gas and although I have watched a few videos in the past of bleeding the air from the lines and filters and so forth none of them were anywhere near as exact as yours. I was able to follow your instructions and apply them to my old tractor and it solved my problem and she fired right up and runs great again. It did seem that most of the air was trapped in the injector pump for me. Thanks for a great show and tell video.

@PrattFamilyHomestead 6 лет назад

That is awesome! I'm very happy to hear that it helped you. We don't do to many "how to" videos, but it is nice to hear that when we do it can be helpful!

@howtodave1725 3 года назад

I just got a 1978 MF 230 form a man down the road. The diesel had to be 10 years old in the tank. With no manual, I did not know how to bleed the pump. this video really helped me out. thank you

@PrattFamilyHomestead 3 года назад

Oh I am so happy to hear that!!!! Thank you!!!

@getsmart3701 2 года назад

Worked on a Valmet 502 (1977). Thank you sir.

@tallyannklitzke932 Год назад

Thank you so much! My brand newly installed fuel gauge failed and I ran out of diesel in my MF 180 today. I was by myself but was able to follow your instructions to a to bleed the fuel lines. My tractor started and I was able to get it out of the field and back to the barn before it froze tonight. Thank you, thank you!! I appreciate your video and help!

@PrattFamilyHomestead Год назад

Awesome! I'm so happy this helped. Thank you for watching!!

@BiggestNightmareJim 6 месяцев назад

Was the same process for my old Volvo T500, worked like a charm. Thank you for the clear instructions. Just a small thing for mine, I couldnt reach the 4th injector so I didn't open that one. Still worked, if anyone has expierence I would love to know how to get to that bolt without stripping it, for next time I run out :)

@glenriddels3719 6 лет назад

Hey Man, Just wanted to say many thanks for posting this video. Same exact thing happened to me few days ago. My MF 275 ran out of diesel. I felt like an idiot first for letting that happen. Watched you video and got it running yesterday by following your example. Thanks brother. Glen in Arizona.

@PrattFamilyHomestead 6 лет назад

That is awesome! So glad that it helped!!!

@joshuadelhanos8926 5 лет назад

Yes this video helped me quite alot. Although I have a different Massey Ferguson MF231, the basics have led me to what I have to do to get my "out of fuel" tractor running again. Thanks for the effort you put into making the video.- JCD

@PrattFamilyHomestead 5 лет назад

Thank you very much!! I hope it worked out!

@francoistombe Год назад

Handy to know. Nice clean and accessible engine. My MF 40B has all the loader framing so getting to these parts means going like a python.

@cswin8494 5 лет назад

I have a Massey Ferguson 90 that mysteriously wouldn’t start. After watching your video and following your directions it fired right up! Great video. Thanks!!!

@PrattFamilyHomestead 3 года назад

@finnerutavdet 3 года назад

Thanks :-),...... best I've found so far, looking for how to bleed my M4.236 Perkins in my 1980 boat, and this was very close and very simmilar, much better than having to read the manual :-) ....

@TheFarmacySeedsNetwork 5 лет назад

Thanks! I have a 3165 now... and NO diesel experience. Now I know where to look! I will give this a try! Cheers!

@PrattFamilyHomestead 5 лет назад

Awesome! Hopefully this ends up being helpful!

@DavidGiblerpeilimocom 4 года назад

I have a MF265 and this worked great, with a little more cracking and closing the lines at the injectors. Mine is a 4 cylinder Perkins. Thank you for the help.

@PrattFamilyHomestead 4 года назад

Glad it helped!!

@joelalley4842 5 лет назад

I have 300 dozer ran out of diesel and watched ur video had running bout 20 min thank you so much!

@PrattFamilyHomestead 5 лет назад

Oh WOW! That is very cool. Thank you for watching and for letting us know it helped!!!

@aqhorsetalk 5 лет назад

I have a '66 MF150 did the same running out of fuel. Been 2 years it's set, gonna try this. I am with you, not mechanical either!

@PrattFamilyHomestead 5 лет назад

Oh cool! Let me know if this does the trick. Forget if I mentioned it or not but I actually did it twice before it worked. I think I skipped a step the first time though and that isn't why it worked. Oh well. Hope it starts up for you!

@Luke_rh96 Год назад

Thanks guys. This was a really useful video and I’m definitely going to transfer what Ive learnt to my 135 tractor. 👍

@PrattFamilyHomestead Год назад

Cool! Glad to help!

@mikinaakminnesota2116 Год назад

I did this many years ago without any instruction; the180 started the first time. I did take note in your video that you said the starter won't engage if it's in gear; well mine did, and because I was not being careful by making sure it was in neutral, it very nearly run over me standing ahead of the rear tire as I turned the key. I stepped up onto the step ahead of the battery compartment and pulled the fuel shut off to kill the engine. Lesson learned. Another person commented his fuel gauge stopped working; so has mine, but I take the worry out of it by using a long wooden handled ballpien hammer that I carry on the tractor and use that as a fuel checker; beats running out of fuel.

@PrattFamilyHomestead Год назад

Wow scary about the tractor starting in gear on you!!!! And the wood handle is an excellent idea!!

@shanemanthe7388 6 лет назад

thank you for this vid I to ran my 180 out of fuel and you saved my day...

@PrattFamilyHomestead 6 лет назад

Your welcome! I'm glad you found it useful ... especially since there isn't a mechanic bone in my body LOL!!!

@petercunningham4000 6 лет назад

Thanks for showing the fuel bleeding process on the Massey Ferguson. I recently bought an old Massey Ferguson 185 and the main detail difference that I can see is that my primary and secondary fuel filters are on the opposite side to the injector pump. I still have a slight leak on one of the fuel filters which is a bit of a nuisance,-after changing the fuel filters. The first thing I did after I got the tractor home changed the engine oil and filter and the air filter, and the fuel filters. Now I still have a bit of a leak on one fuel filter.

@PrattFamilyHomestead 6 лет назад

Awesome. I'm glad this help. I don't have any suggestions on the leaking filter though.

@ShemZ664 3 года назад

most likely you need new washers.

@offgridas 6 лет назад

Just what I needed, just ran my mf165 out and your instructions convert well enough to my model.thanks mate

@PrattFamilyHomestead 6 лет назад

Oh that's awesome! We don't have a lot of "how to" videos so I'm glad this was useful for you. Thank you very much!

@andernathan 6 лет назад

Thank you for putting this together! I changed out my fuel filter and needed to bleed the fuel line. I knew to do the first 2 steps but still wouldn't start. After loosening the fuel lines, turning over the motor a couple times and tightening them back.....it started right up. Very happy thank you!

@PrattFamilyHomestead 6 лет назад

That's awesome! Thank you for the feedback. Really glad it helped.

@CharlesinGA 3 года назад

Thank you, I am working on a Massey 165 and I have fuel all the way to the pump inlet. I did not know about the two bleed screws on the side of the injection pump body. I will see if this helps.

@magneruud9246 3 года назад

Thank you from Norway. Ferguson 135, 64 mod, but exactly the same system.

@moerftown1 5 лет назад

Thank you, I will refer to your video, once the diesel tank has been installed back into my MF165. Then, hopefully - with some help - it will get going again.

@PrattFamilyHomestead 5 лет назад

Thank you so much. Please let me know if it works out!! I hope it does!

@Tomsfoolery. 4 года назад

Great video! Thanks for sharing!

@PrattFamilyHomestead 4 года назад

Thank you very much!

@simidhel 6 лет назад

That was an excellent tutorial with nice clear instructions and footage! If you get stuck trying to do the bleed by yourself again and can't see if there's air bubbles because you're on the pump side, you could always set up your phone to film the valve or vent _(one of those little gorilla tripods would be useful)_ and then check the footage after pumping? You should do a _"Pratt-ical Mechanics with Mike and Jeni!"_ video series! :) 🚜 🛠

@PrattFamilyHomestead 6 лет назад

The video camera is a great idea and I almost did that. When the tractor was actually down, Jeni was not doing good (post surgery). So if I couldn't get it started, I was considering filming it. And I don't think we are ready for PFH mechanical tutorials LOL. Thanks Simon!!

I love a 180! Great tractor...new subscriber!

@PrattFamilyHomestead 6 лет назад

Hey thank you very much!!! Thanks for checking us out and loves seeing you on the live stream tonight!! I just got that 180 back in the fall. I haven't really put her through the paces yet, but I am liking her. I also got a 8' disc to use with her and played a little bit in the fall with that. That 180 didn't even know that disc was back there :)

@FarmallFanatic 6 лет назад

Pratt Family Homestead you took the words right off my thumbs! We had two 165s back in the day, and we pulled 10' discs with them. That 180 is a lot more tractor than a 165. I always wanted one and still got my feelers out. Im dying to see that thing in action! Nice live stream, ill be around!

@ChickaWoofRanch 6 лет назад

Nice job Mike!!!

@PrattFamilyHomestead 6 лет назад

Thanks you!

@davemcavene 6 лет назад

Great job Mike! She sounds awesome. I'm in the same boat. Not a mechanical bone in my body, But if I have the time to sit down and slowly work on it I can figure out what is wrong and how to fix it, If not I would rather pay someone who knows exactly what to do and I don't have to worry about screwing something else up in the process.

@PrattFamilyHomestead 6 лет назад

That is me exactly. I don't mind the high $$$ so that I don't have to do it, or try to cram it. But that is also how I grew up. My Dad also had no desire to work on cars, but he would do just about anything else!!

@freshstart7756 6 лет назад

I am enviouse of both your tractors :) I have a 1945 N2 and a small MF12 I want a bigger MF and another N8 in the future. Y'all are awesome and thanks for sharing! #Vlarmer *~Nate*

@PrattFamilyHomestead 6 лет назад

Thank you so much!! I really dig the ford N series tractors. I might need 1 of each. It is crazy the size difference between the 8n and the MF 180. That 8N was my first ever tractor and I thought it was .... "big" LOL!!!

@eaglecamphomesteadswfl9006 6 лет назад

@notfbiofficial4023 4 года назад

So basically what happened to me I parked on a hill and fuel was low it was a diesel Massey Ferguson I watch this video and didn’t want to tell my dad for some reason I pushed it off a hill and then I hit the ignition switch and it cranked up

@PrattFamilyHomestead 3 года назад

Oh wow! That is awesome!!

@notfbiofficial4023 3 года назад

Well one month later after l run it for about an hour it really randomly cut off I turn it on in about two minutes it turns back off but if I let it sit for about two hours and come back to it it runs fine for another hour and then I go through the whole cycle again
