Will it run? Starting a Te20 from the undergrowth! 

Pleased to hear it

same here: though for me it specifically involves knocking the rusted lock off an old shed and finding a lost steam locomotive inside. Hey, at least yours is pretty feasible actually! Mine's basically hopeless...

@@sawyerawr5783 you lucky guy. Been searching for a tractor and has found a locomotive. Lawrie would be proud to have such an audience.

@@sawyerawr5783 that's pretty impressive. What was it?

@@lmm eh, I worded that badly: I never have truthfully unfortunately. the closest I've gotten is a rotted out 0-4-0T sitting on a flatcar in my hometown, but sadly she's spoken for. but, I guess, you could argue CD Johnson 9 counts (I WILL get you out of that gorge one day!) I mean I blundered into the remains of a stationary boiler out in new mexico once but eh, not the same really.

It was very stiff 😂

Hello @@lmm How is your fire engines doing

Apparently some owners did paint them red to look like the new 35's!

I do love a Te20. The tractor that comes to mind when you think tractor 😂

They're good little tractors!

Pleased to hear you've found us. All my stuff has names 😂

@@lmm how is Jupiter running for you?

@@lmm I’ve named my family’s cars since I was little. We had a Chrysler voyager called Millie. She hated the cold starts and used to smoke loads. She had a vm motori Diesel engine. My latest motorbillity car is called tazz or my dad calls her the Mooney bus 😂

Yeah, they sold everywhere

Thank you very much!

It's a great job considering he didn't do it 😂

As I said in the video, been there since before Christmas

Do love a 35

More fun to pull it out though. If I'd had a spare person we could have probably bumped it into life

Ah this is a good little tractor, runs sweet 😂

Lots of these older tractors will just start up!

Pleased to hear it

on an diesel engine like this it will run without a battery, a battery is only needed to start it as it is a manual pull to stop not off the ignition. modern diesel engines need a battery all the time though because as soon as you turn the ignition off it shuts the fuel pump off and will stop the engine

It's a good little tractor. The diesels do just go even after sitting for an age.

Not mine sadly!

Isn't it pretty though

Very strange. That diesel one just goes!

They're quite super aren't they

Great isn't it - I love the sound

Both hahahaha

There is a technical fault with the video after it had been rendered causing audio to drop out. We are investigating and hopefully will have it back up shortly.

@@lmm No worries, hope things go well

Not really. They're only nettles

Great things aren't they

I'd say you'd be wrong.

@@lmm look at the regrowth on the grass from when it last topped. Its about a month and no high weeds grew around the tractor.

Are you aware that weeds and grass don't really grow over winter?

@@lmm yes sure this was summer time this was filmed. July and August when they grow the most 😁

@@prime553 that would explain the nettles as tall as me then. Dunno what to tell you bud, thing hadn't been run since before Christmas.

Oh that would make sense! Though I always took it to be sequential

Yeah, I think all te20s have hand start

Sounds good doesn't it!

Sadly not this one, owner wants to keep it

@@lmm ow i see why, i hope it will get a restoration though and get better taken care of, when we bought a new property before we moved in there now we got everything inside the 2 outbuildings and the old house except for 2 tractors whom the owner wants to give to he's nephew =( i know the owner he's my former taxi driver uffe's dad so i was surprised to find out that the tractors belonged to him and that antonia's dad is he's nephew i only met uffe's dad once when i was at primary school uffe had to get some students living in another village while he's dad took me and several others who lived in the same village as i did home we got along really well and talked together and when i got home i got out of he's car but when i was gonna close the door it wouldn't close so we tried to figure out the problem me and him and we got the problem solved and closed the door and said good bye, man he was a really nice guy i gotta say, he's 2 tractors is a porsche 308 diesel super and nuffield universal 3 😁 my grandpa also has an old tractor a Mccormick International 434, i thought about getting a ferguson te 20 as my first tractor and a david brown 25d as my second tractor since i love oldies and want to have 2 of my own, our family owns a 1981 fiat 880 dt backhoe which dad and i are working on bringing the electronics on it to life it's a nice tractor and special for it's kind 😊

Is TED the petrol / TVO one?

@@lmm petrol and petrolium

Not yet!

That's pretty good going!

And yet here it is

And a diesel fergie at that

@@lmm The best ones were diesels id say although i think the tvo's had more power right?

I didn't at any point say it was abandoned?

Thought I did 😂

Similar, but different

I think that's the basic things with these old tractors - it'll go 😂

That's the thingy

Thank you!
