Excellent progress! Coming along very nicely!

great to see the progress

👍

you got the tele going again then, looks like she leaks down rather quickly, nice job getting engine in and running sounds lovely

that is a sod of a job to install. Looking good

Still better sound than my daf xg ,and I bet does just as good a job as a £250,000 combine today Great workmanship steve

Good ob getting the motor in and running (I'll take the Fiat/Laverdas with the engine behind the grain tank in a nice lift out cradle anytime more than the Massey), pity about the starter, is the bendix pinion stuck in the forward (engaged ) position, as it might be although the solenoid is working the contacts and busbar in the cap are burnt and/or blackened so no current flow (had this on a few machines i've re-comissioned), also with the engine and gearbox mounts if you're going to have to replace them instead of using stud,stud mountings using (of the same diameter & height) threaded socket types with a bolt would make putting the new ones in really easy.

Excellent video again 👍 wouldn't be right if all the pieces just fell into place would it 🤔🤣 very nice sounding engine that 💪💪 just a shame about the Bendix never seen one seized up like that before 😕 can you get stop cable or do you just use a piece of piano wire 🤔
