Takes me back to my Mechanic days working on Cat Dozers. Sure glad I retired but still live within 10 miles of where I spent 25 years working. I go up on a weekly basis and help the young fellers understand.

I love Yanmars. Those old two cyliders are rock solid reliable. I need to come back to watch this video later

Got a D166, daily use for 25 years, goes on and on. Best friend, brilliant.

I have a yammer 1500d 4x4 tractor with a brand new 4 ft. grader box and I love it.It is a very strong tractor for the size.

Reminds me of my youth running a gold tromel with a similar machine ,ours had a loader and a backhoe.

The sound of freedom at 2:00!

My YM2000B sat untouched in the building for 15 years. I installed a new battery 2 months ago, and it fired up as if it was parked yesterday. I installed a 7 foot Ford sickle bar, and now use it once a week on ditches, and around 3 ponds. Gotta love the old Yanmars.

I have a YM165D. Great little tractor with a loader. great around the house. I do need to do fuel injector soon. Enjoy yours. They are well built.

I just came across your video. Great job working by yourself.

great job!!! if i can offer any advise it would be about air filters. Naturally aspirated diesels love lots of fresh air. Sometimes paper filters get wet in high humidity and won't let the air through. Would recommend a screen type filter. Paper or felt filters are more for dusty dry days with blowing sand and dust.

Wow man. What a kick ass video, from one guy whose trying to do the exact same thing 😅 Thank you for this !

When splitting tractors you should always wedge the front axle so front half doesn't flop to the side . Cut yourself a couple wood block wedges and wedge them in the front,it's a good thing that is an oversized garden tractor and not something like a deere 7930

You might want to switch sides on those rear tires , you'll have better clean out of mud & better traction , they will fill up with mud if you get into a muddy spot .

When it comes to small tractors i like iseki, my tx1500 (g174) when i got it the engine oil had not been changed in 14 years, i have since changed it, it is a very reliable and powerful machine, i would definitly buy another one

With through holes in the gearbox top I usually put sealant on the bolt threads and heads as water gets in that way

Thank you for your time. Nace.

Great job Dave, thank you Sir

That gear is what happens when you shift into four wheel drive while the machine, pickup or what ever is still spinning.

Very cool vids!!. You are a great mechanic!.

Big job! Well done!

The color of that fluid is indicative of water getting into the oil. Had a Ford that did that. The problem turned out to be a bad head gasket and the coolant was mixing with the oil. It got to the point that brown foam was oozing out of the oil filler cap. A cracked head can have the same result. I would suspect you've got more than one problem...the stripped gear isn't related to the chocolate milkshake oil.

JUST PASSIN THRU, I ENJOYED YOUR VIDEO

Nice Yanmar!

Wow that’s very daunting to take apart.

These are great little tractors as long as you service them regularly they'll last forever. But most people just use them and don't take care of them.

I’ve got a 135 D. Aside from the convection cooling it’s a tank

Oops I see ya figured out them tires at the end of the video , good job ! :-)

Yammar is a go tractor I have about 35 yr old 750 JD.

Good job well done sir

GREAT JOB!

I was given a starter to one of them recently. I was told it was shot, so I hooked it up to a lil power inverter I built outta junk an a old Lincoln battery an the thing works perfectly. An it was free.

Cool find

Cute little tractor not to big or not to small

the water gets in round the gearchange rubber boot, its a common complaint on the small yanmars, hoyt have new ones

I like the projects. Think I’ll sub.

Just did the cluch in my ym155d last week...water in the oil from the shift boot...you can still get parts for these...rust on forks water was coming in..4ft bushhog. Way to big..finish mower maybe...woods rm42 is what i have works good. That's why your transmission to clutch splines are wareing bad...grease in that coupling helps

Put a tall push guard to protest the grill and do yourself a favor and make a draw bar on the front also.

I just got a Yanmar 2210 D 4x4 with bucket, scraper blade, finish mower, cultivator ,tire chains .All for 500 bucks it runs great ! I think I have you on the best deal.

i gotta Bolens G152, looks almost the same .... after some fixup, it's perfect for my 2 acres .... wish it was 4wd tho ..... nice tractor .....

What was the little red tractor you picked up, I’m looking for diesel pump for 2t72 engine it looks just like that.

You'll want a "slug jug" for up front. make a basket out of steel that'll fit a couple fuel cans.

great video! :)

Two sets of tires = duals in my mind!

Gunfire, A little Retrowave in the beginning and tractors.....Are we Kin?

Was just wondering if you still have the old transmission with the bas gear, I have a 155D that runs great, no reverse, but the gear I need is the double 14/14 that still looks good by the video, I would buy parts or the old transmission you aren't using.

Nice little tractor

John Deere were Yanmars. Excellent machines. I have a Yanmar mini excavator. Never heard bad stuff about Yanmar. Whoever owned it abused it bad .

Wow where can i get them i really want them

Milky oil is cheap oil and it also has water in it.

Would you be willing to sell the transmission input shaft and cover with bearings and seal

I bet that same engine is used in sailboats too. Yanmar engines are used in so many things.

I put a 7 gallon air tank filled with concrete on mine wieghts around 165lbs

Nice work Good Logic Congratulations on Your trouble shooting logic

Need a sleeve goes in between the steering spindle bearings no were has it iv got every thing to fix it geus I make one

80lbs of wieght did the trick on my 155d

I'm curious if the blades on the mower turned the right direction? I was told to stay away from those grey market tractors as the PTO shafts turned the wrong direction. I didn't see or hear how the transmission got repaired? Was you able to get a good used transmission from somewhere?

What's the problem in the geatbox??

Nice interesting video other than the damn music, why people put music in place of tools rattling etc i don't know why but wish they wouldn't

I see those older smaller Japanese tractors on Craigslist occasionally for under $3,000 and I wonder if their 4 wheel drive would better handle a snowblower attachment than my Toro 522xi? How hard is it to find parts for them?

I use to have a D165 Yanmar

If you uploaded consistently like weekly your Chanel could be very successful and possibly a better camera could help

man what a mud hole - seems like it did not slow you down much but hear is me hoping you get a better spot to do your thing in.

looks like a 155. i have a 135 i did over, keep um coming.

There isn't a cheapest 4x4 tractor, you just bought it cheap from somewhere, also it was not in perfect condition so its not really a fair say, but a really good looking tractor, yanmar, iseki, hinomoto, mitsubishi, kubota all of them are 10/10 japanese tractors

Dave what is the make of this tractor?

Any plans to fix the other one?

I have a Kubota b6000 4×4 fun tractor but don't use it much

Old Kubota’s are the best tractors out there

I've never even heard of that brand. Where is it from?

Can u find one a those for me

You could get your old transmission gears repaired. Contact Adam on the abom79 channel.

Bad head gasket No Doubt

I like to know how come you didn't tell everybody what kind of tractor you working on?

Where did you get it ?

Just like a wind clock worn tooth muck up everything.

Maybe no music next time

Think it matters what brand it is anymore we all have plants in China John Deere case caterpillar all built in China just look up caterpillar industrial park China

It's a sad shame so many commenters make comments before actually watching the video clear through. Then make dumb stupid troll like advice that was addressed in the vid. By end of video you did a good job seems like a pretty good tractor. The only thing I wonder is how does this fit with the title as buying cheapest tractor you could find? I get the fact this tractor needed serious work that would make it cheap. But you just happen to have a second tractor for parts that fit? Sounds like you bought 2 tractors to make one or you specifically looked for another tractor like the one you had. In this case title is very misleading because I watched this for tips on finding a cheap compact tractor for my 5 acres homestead. Tired of spending $3,000 plus for lawn/garden tractors that fall apart in 3 to 5 years and won't even do all the work.

I say it's been in a flood

Flood tractor!!

...PITA...

Turn yor wheels the dont Work that way

N

Pay your money you get your choice?cheap shit is cheap shit youcant getaway from that. .

Horrible music
