Old vintage tractor..will it run after many years? - Vice Grip Garage EP43

This old Minneapolis Moline M602 tractor has been sitting for a long time. It only makes sense that I go unprepared to work on reviving it after many years. Do you think it will start? This old tractor has lots of character, and sure gives a guy a big fight! It clearly needed an ignition rebuild, but of course, I didn't have all the parts. The updraft carburetor also needs a rebuild. Who do you think will win?

I bought a Minneapolis Moline that a broken seat so I mounted the front part of an old horse saddle I had laying around to sit on until I got a different seat. I was out bouncing around on it in the field when my wife walked out and wanted to try it. So she got on it and went bouncing along and after a few minutes, she had this silly smile on her face. She rode it till the dang thing ran out of gas and then dragged me into the house and it wasn't even Saturday night. The next day I painted the name For Play above the Minneapolis moline on the hood.

Need more gas in fuel tank. No fuel pump, you need a couple gallons minimum for pressure at the carb not a dribble.

@mistered9435 4 жыл бұрын

Justin Stearns Mine did this with new fuel line, sediment bowl, and a rebuilt tsx67 carb. There was no blockage. If it ran out of gas, it acted just like a vapor lock, and gas would not flow from the sediment bowl to the carb until I loosened the new gas cap and the fuel line fitting at the carb. Then, gas would flow and fill the carb bowl to the proper level. I tightened the fitting and gas cap, and everything worked properly for months until I ran it out of gas again. Rinse and repeat.

The MM were a very good tractor. I had a MM 445 and a MM 5 Star diesel. The series you are working on is in the family line of probably the best most reliable tractors that Minneapolis Moline ever made. They started in the 1930s as the KT series then became the U series and then updated to the UB series. Then the 5 star was the next one in the family line. After that it went to the M5, then M504 then M602, M604, M670 and finally ending in M670 Super. Your tractor has a 336 ci engine. These are a very good torquey engine. You can actually turn your 336 into a 403 ci engine. Find a MM G tractor with the 403 engine and swap those parts into your 336.

Old tractors are temperamental. Helped my father rebuilt a 1939 farmall. The starter was shot so we had to use the handcrank ! Fond memories... please keep making these videos. Best on Utube !!!

I remember driving an MM on my Baba's Farm in the early 1970s. I was about 12 yrs old and got it stuck pretty good along a Slough. I loved the Hand Clutch it had, compared to the Foot Clutch of the McCormick

I just reworked my 51 Ferguson. I did a 12-volt conversion but otherwise had all of the same problems. Rebuilt the carb, cleared a clogged fuel line, replaced a leaky sediment bowl, etc. They sure are sweet once you have them dialed-in and running though 😊

if you can dump fuel down the hatch like that, it might be a vac leak somewhere on that manifold

Love old tractors. Like a vintage tractor pull once in a while. An old man machinist/blacksmith I once knew had a couple old steam traction engines he restored and ran in the local parade.

My Uncle Bob had a '65 Rolls Royce silver cloud had twin carbs and points. I cut my teeth on setting points with feeler gauge and ear tuning. Pretty cool seeing the distributor in action.

“Get off your butt, get out there, and start spinning wrenches.” That’s great, Derek!! I love getting out in my shop and getting dirty. I introduced that to my boys at a young age, and they both decided to go to tech school. One is an aircraft mechanic and the other is an HVAC tech. We love trades work at our house - guys like us will always have a job!! Thanks for all the great content, totally enjoying your channel!!

that's awesome. when i was a kid my dad had a 1938 minneapolis moline, it had the old crank start on the front of the tractor below the radiator. it was nicknamed the arm breaker.. if you were not careful the crank would swing back and hit you in the arm.
