Vintage Thursday. New starter motor for the 3095 

Great video Dan

That was a very lucky find! What’s the story with the Davy Brown in the hedge?

When 1 job turns to a dozen 😆🤦‍♂. Kinda impressive that the ring gear didn’t chip any teeth or the fact the broken bit didn’t jam everything up!

Was that a David Brown parked up by your Massey, would that be one of yours? By the time you finish the Massey that’ll be one nice tractor.

Remember when my relative bought a nearly new 3095 datatronic, it was the big modern tractor of the day and it felt enormous!! 3rd and 4th back to front took some getting used to!! Loved the sound of the Perkins 6 cyl

I put a new starter on my 3070 about 5 years ago, , but I still get the odd click. The revised wiring at the front end has got me thinking though. Very interesting as usual.

99% of all 3000 series electrical problems can all be traced back to where the the earth cable from the Battery is connected to the chassis at the from and corrosion of the positive terminals preventing full current. Not helped by usually having 2 batteries to deal with! The red and yellow wires attached to the positive are very important to make the hydraulics and PTO work properly.

Turned out good, best wishes when you attack the electrical issues.

YIKESSSS ..... 😮 I have never seen that happen on a starter motor before, I wonder what on earth caused that !?!?, thank you for the video Dan. 🙂👍

Farmer P mentioned he saw you at Cereals today, so here I am. Nice video, new subscriber

The bellhousing will be full of metallic dust from the broken starter motor housing and from the clutch plate. I think I would have cleaned it out properly before fitting the new starter. As you probably know the small yellow and red wires at the battery pos terminal supply power to the etcu behind the RH cab step. Most electronic problems on 3000 series are caused by poor wiring giving low voltage readings. Alternator also needs to be producing 13v at least to power ELC (rear linkage). Always test electrics with a headlight bulb and two wires, a multimeter is not good enough.

Great video Dan. Enjoyed watching. 👍🏼👍🏼

Could have been a disaster, if that bit of casting got between the ring gear and bell housing.

Satisfying work. Looking forward to seeing more

nice video can you make a video on how to drive it and how to use the 2 speed shift?

Good video have one myself great old tractor

great video thanks. Have you already done the hydraulic oil replacement ? I bought one filter (big one near the right rear tire) but i think there might be a second one, behind the steps. i would like to be sure before changing the oil. Only one mentionned in the massey 3000 service manual i have. Thanks, julien

David brown behind the Massey

Great video Dan. Why do manufacturers put a drain for the engine block behind the starter must be a better place.

Nice neat job as always Dan 👍

Whats the craic with the david brown

16:19 great job done

Good Video Dan. Always something to be learnt, Thank You

Luck was with you there a potential disaster averted good job

Good job you didn't have a half-moon spanner to remove the solenoid nut !!!

The gods were indeed on your side when that solenoid wouldn't come off that could have been a real disaster 🙄😐 good video 👍

Another great video Dan

Great video again Dan

Very nice job on the terminals On the subject of swapping batteries between classics that don't do much, are there any decent quick attach terminals?

👍👍🇮🇪🇮🇪🙏🙏💪💪
