Mine is a 1981 3600 diesel, had 9 years, and I LOVE it dearly. I did the same thing you did when I brought home. I drove up and down the road testing it out. It has never failed me. These are very well engineered and built tractors. Enjoy!!!
As I recall from talking with my ex-father-in-law, who did some farming, you'll want to keep the tractor off of paved surfaces as much as possible, to not wear the tires excessively. Nice tractor!
I have also ford 3000 diesel 1974 , it z very powerful nd luxurious tractor , I have changed its transmission nd fuel pump , now it can run upto 120 km/h speed.
It's Nice and I Really Like Ford Tractors and Cars, but We have a 3000 Diesel that is a 1968 model and I was really looking for a video about the power steering on it, but so far I can't find one. I noticed that the front wheels were kinda spread out a little bit wider than Ours, I am wondering if that is what Ours needs. It is having problems turned in one direction. My Brother-in-law put a front end loader on it for a few years and I don't think that He put some of the steering components back exactly like they go.
I think that's pretty cool. I like Fords and it had some getty up go to it. I think it can do a great job. Thanks for the vid my friend I liked it alot.
scott scottswart440 Both of my Deere riders refused to start that weekend. I think they were a little jealous....hmmmmm. Anyway.....said lawn is now mowed.....everybody now understands their value at the "Urban" farm. Take Care Scott.
fordson is the first generation of ford tractor the had the little amp gauge and oil gauge about the size of an old silver dollar where you speed is on yours. they are awesome tractors. my father and brother have keep his run for 60 yrs
Scott Lowe Thanks Scott. What I will do with it still remains to be seen. So far, I've toured the neighborhood several times and tore up the front yard.
yes someone was using this on steep ground and changed it to a very wide stance. No big job to put it back to normal though. If you have any trouble or questions check a forum called "yesterdays tractors" for lots of good knowledgeable people to help you
You should be careful in running that tractor at full speed on the street or anywhere for that matter. That tractor is very heavy and brakes are very weak.
@@alexparedes5264 it depends. Gasoline is good for light duty work and you can refuel it easy if you have some gasoline at home for your car. Gasoline tractors are a bit cheaper too, because they aren't that popular. Diesel tractors have more torque, and they are better for professional use because they consomate less when the engine needs to deliver power. But they are more expensive when buying.
Piece of crap!.......Can I have it? LOL....just kidding!!! I love it! Those thousand series tractors are the best ever! My brother has a Ford 5000 just like my grandfather used to have. I'm looking for a 4 or 5000 to use on our farm. I just like to drive them and listen to the engine and watch the cap on the exhaust stack bob up and down when it idles.
The Fords have 3 cylinder Gas and diesel engines. The transmission and rear end have overflow check plugs but no dipstick. You add 134 D hydraulic fluid until fluid starts running out of the check plugs.

Works like a champ. Thanks Rob.
I pulled a flail more with one of these for two years at a park district. I love this style of Ford tractor. That's a nice one.
And it just keeps on running.
Beautiful Tractor! Love it!
After reading the comments, I like that you bought a farm size tractor with no idea what you'd use it for. 😄 I've thought about doing so myself.
Nicholls & Sense DO IT!!

islandsi I'm very excited about it. Thanks
it sure looks like the old fordsons in the late 40s and 50s guess they didn't change much. Dose it have a place for a crank start
Malcolm Small I see the gauges are different the older ones had the 2 round gauges on them and not speedometer
Malcolm Small Where would that be? I'm a tractor dummy.

Nice tractor, what are you planning on using it for?
Scott Lowe Thanks Scott. What I will do with it still remains to be seen. So far, I've toured the neighborhood several times and tore up the front yard.
I love it :-)
Bjørn Petersen It's so cool.
are the back wheels turned around..in the vid it looks kinda wide
+burdman1954 Gosh, I sure hope not.

Sweet
UPGardenr I know.....right?
And if you're planning to use the PTO, mind your hands and clothes around it. Super seriously.
SUweet!
Camp Cossack EXACTLY!!!
set the wheels back in
I need to know more about that. I am not a tractor dude, but wish I was. I guess we might be making a video on that soon. Wanna come over and help?
LifeBuzzN
your steel wheels are turned around on the hub.
@@LifeBuzzN I just read this haha. Did u ever get them done?

Ya, I'm a rookie. Thanks for the tips....
Nice how much do those cost
***** I've seen them from $1500-$5500, but am not an expert.
Gas has 38 horsepower diesel has 40
What Is More good gas or Diesel
@@alexparedes5264 it depends. Gasoline is good for light duty work and you can refuel it easy if you have some gasoline at home for your car. Gasoline tractors are a bit cheaper too, because they aren't that popular.

Keep hitting curbs like that when you are turning and you will quickly find out the joys of destroyed kingpins...
lost in the tundra I'm showing my green......huh?
Cuánto cuesta un tractor como ese

I never heard of a 3 cylinder gas eng the only one I know of a 3 cylinder is the diesel usely the gas was 4 to 6

Ya have now. I got one but cant find anything on it to tell me when transmission and differential are full.
My 1968 Ford 4400 has a 3 cylinder gas engine,with 63 hp [52 at the pto]
The Fords have 3 cylinder Gas and diesel engines. The transmission and rear end have overflow check plugs but no dipstick. You add 134 D hydraulic fluid until fluid starts running out of the check plugs.
