Let’s see an emissions tractor sit for 20 years and run like that one. She quit hazing after the second pass. What a beast!!!! Just think how much better it will run with some fresh diesel and fuel additives in it.
Hopefully those few acres were just the first of many that the old girl will be able to work for you. I have really enjoyed the videos on the 1800 and all of your other tractors and look forward to seeing you have a successful planting season.
Awesome job Jt. Everything seems to be working like you planned, however, it sounds as though the hydraulic pump is cavitating a bit especially when first started up. With as many years as it sat idle, it may not hurt to think about adding some hydraulic oil conditioner to the system which would help reseal some of the o-rings throughout. Just a thought and suggestion. As always, you produce great bring-em back to life videos.
She's going from strength to strength by the time you were doing that 3rd stripe the smoke had gone 👍 it's also a good looking tractor that will be something special again once you've finished working your magic on it.👌
The best entertainment on a Sunday evening in the UK, JT cultivating some good looking soil with a good looking MF tractor. Well done on putting this 1800 back where it belongs JT, and thank you for another great video 👍
There is a future in farming for a young man who is willing to use older machinery to keep the costs down. I was your age during 80's farm crisis and saw it happen guys my age. Keep it going!
Sure great to see the old iron doing what it was designed to do. Not a lot of plastic to break, computer chips to fail, or def in the wrong tank kind of machine. Just a tractor made to pull a plow.
Again JT you are to be commended. A poor neglected machine is now loud and proud again. It certainly looked right at home with that field cultivator. I’m going to pay more attention to your channel.
Advance auto parts have a great header coat paint with high temperature ceramic bond agent in it, called Plastic Coat , its great for your manifolds,I believe the satin black is the best and to me,and my experience with using it, it's actually washable if you get wet clay soil or other dirt splash on it when the pipes are hot . The dirt had flashed dry on it and after the pipes cooled down,I found that I could just wipe the stain right off,without recoating it ,nice stuff
Ok, now that I see it's the deluxe model with under pedal side to middle carpeting... It's a keeper for sure! Love the video's JT! Thanks from middle of farm country in Northern Illinois.
Very good work Mr JT. The antique Persian carpet clearly did its thing; old Cat engine just needed a warm, loaded fart to clear up. Seems well matched to that implement as the work-up was smooth and Fergy did it easy. Bit quicker maybe? From Eyre Peninsula, South Australia.
Great to see her doing what she is supposed to do. And like all those old engines, they just need a good load put through them to get back into shape. Looking forward to the upcoming field work videos!
When you did “one more lap” I had to chuckle because I know exactly what it’s like when you’re having fun and don’t want to go home. Almost want to call the neighbors and ask if they wanted any tillage done huh? 😂 This is going to be a nice rig for you.
The 'ol 1800 is looking and sounding good!! I ran our MF 1805 on our 16' chisel plow on Friday....first time we've turned dirt here in WNY. Hopefully your stretch of decent weather continues!
Looks like the 1800 just needed to work a little bit. The smoke didn’t take too long to clear up. Hopefully it starts better and doesn’t use a bunch of oil. Thanks for the Videos.
Does my sole good to see you in the dirt with the old lady . Really nice flying carpet on the floor , I have them everywhere . Great video JT , keep on making them 👍
Years ago when I was farming with a older fellow; we ran a Massey 1800 for a couple of years. We added a turbo charger to the engine and probably went up a gear while doing tillage. This lasted for a day or two, then the engine blew-up putting a rod through the block. That was the end of my Massey experience.
It could do with a bit of fitted carpet underneath your bit of fancy carpet . A nice bit of Axminster would be nice. All the best from England, i just love the 1200 model as well.
I thought that center piece was going to be your water mellon patch.Like the farmers did in my little town in southern illinois called Flora illinois lol!
Excellent video JT :) also knew 1800 Massey Ferguson tractor do job for you and had 100 % faith in you said first ! Also nice rotation tractors for feild work , crop put in also take off and transport to farm to farm or anywhere! Excellent work out for sure 👍 JT :) !
180-200 is where you want engines to run. There’s a reason why manufacturers set thermostat temps to that temp. Multiple reasons actually but one being at that temp it helps burn off any moisture or impurities in the oils and keeps the oils in better shape and also maintains peak combustion efficiency, all your cyclinder rings/gaps are expanded to where they should be etc. engines that run cool usually plug up with crap more often. You’ll even see some applications like high performance stuff they’ll thermostat them to 210-220 even, right on the line of to hot but they run amazing up there.
From my desk it looks like you are having entirely too much fun !! But if I was the one in the dirt under those tractors I might be pining for that desk job. Congrats on making a lot of hard work look so enjoyable, and on a long list of successful projects !!!
Awesome video, love to see the older girls still working. Enjoy watching you knowledge and expertise on the work horses. Good luck in the future and Happy plowing!!
The old girl had to go back to work. All that TLC you gave her . Went worked it a bit the smoke cleared up. Love to see the old stuff brought back to life.
Congratulations on your string of successes, or lucky breaks. I am speaking of your recent forklift and garden tractor will it start videos. Wishing you continued success
Cleaned right up with a a good load. Got to love those old caterpillars! Figured she would worst case a set of injectors bit you don’t even need those at this point.
First lap and a half there was more smoke than dust . Just like my 1500 . That’s normal , enjoy your beast. Moved my hydraulic tank on my 1500 years ago best place for it
Let’s see an emissions tractor sit for 20 years and run like that one. She quit hazing after the second pass. What a beast!!!! Just think how much better it will run with some fresh diesel and fuel additives in it.
For sure! It’ll get better and better!
Had a big smile on my face watching the Massey go to work. I love seeing old forgotten equipment brought back to life.
Right on!
That's what it's all about... bringing something left for dead and bringing it back to life, and back to work! Great job 👍👍
Thanks!
Hopefully those few acres were just the first of many that the old girl will be able to work for you. I have really enjoyed the videos on the 1800 and all of your other tractors and look forward to seeing you have a successful planting season.
Thanks! I hope so too!
The old girl worked like it was meant to work. It was good to see the exhaust clear up , a good work out does wonders.
Yes it does!
You just gotta love these old V 8 chuggers.
They just keep on chuggn.
Right on!
Beautiful tractor and nice to see it coming back to life. And that workout on the field did it good.
Thanks 👍
Awesome. Love to see old farm tractors come back to life.
Right on! Thanks!

I think a jug of the Lucas hydraulic booster would sure help!
She's going from strength to strength by the time you were doing that 3rd stripe the smoke had gone 👍 it's also a good looking tractor that will be something special again once you've finished working your magic on it.👌
Right on! Thanks!
whauw No sweat and no smoke. Perfect!
Perfect comment
She’s gonna be a runner!
The best entertainment on a Sunday evening in the UK, JT cultivating some good looking soil with a good looking MF tractor. Well done on putting this 1800 back where it belongs JT, and thank you for another great video 👍
Thank you!
I love seeing these old machines being rescued and being used again, well done 👍
Many thanks!
There is a future in farming for a young man who is willing to use older machinery to keep the costs down. I was your age during 80's farm crisis and saw it happen guys my age. Keep it going!
Right on! Thanks!
Good to see the beast work.
Thanks!
Awesome. Even the blue smoke has all gone
Right on!
It’s great to see the 1800 going again! Good job.
Thanks again!
Great video JT. That big grin running up and down the field reminds me of being 13 doing field work for the first time on the big case.
Right on! Always makes me smile when one of these oldies gets back to work!
Sure great to see the old iron doing what it was designed to do. Not a lot of plastic to break, computer chips to fail, or def in the wrong tank kind of machine. Just a tractor made to pull a plow.
Right on!
What an old Sweetheart.
You did good!
It does kinda tickles me to see POWER STEERING on the wheel.
I couldn't imagine it being without it.
Ha! I don’t think a guy could muscle that more than once without it lol
Seat time in the 1800 ! 👍🏻🇺🇸
Enjoyed every minute watching!
Right on! Thanks Scott! Just about ready for a lot of seat time in the old masseys soon!
It starts, it runs, it steers and it stopped smoking!😮 I like the fancy carpet but really, let's get a shift knob!😊
Right on
I think she earned her tachometer fixed and a new paint job she looked liked she did a good job
Right on! Was thinking that too!
Now that calls for 2 beers!! Happy for you as you did so much work on it. The Old girl should do you proud this season.
Right on! I think she will!!
That is Awesome to see it being worked again after all these yrs. Great Job. Cant wait to see it Restored.
You and me both!
Love all the old Massey on your farm JT, even better that it's functional! Love older tractors still working the land
Thanks! Appreciate it!
Wow, that smoke cleared up 😊. It's time to celebrate , Cold Beer and HOT Tractors 😅
Oh yes!
Again JT you are to be commended. A poor neglected machine is now loud and proud again. It certainly looked right at home with that field cultivator. I’m going to pay more attention to your channel.
Thanks! I appreciate that!
That heat cycle would have been great for the engine.

Good to see the old girl doing what she was meant to do!
Right on! I’m glad she’s back in action!
Hi friend that old girl is working hard good job 🎉🎉keep the great videos coming friend. From Scotland 😊
Will do! Thanks!
Ok, now that I see it's the deluxe model with under pedal side to middle carpeting... It's a keeper for sure! Love the video's JT! Thanks from middle of farm country in Northern Illinois.
Thank you!
That was definitely a win!!! Woo hoo.
Thanks!
After 20 years it's due to make some rounds
Good job my man. That's awesome so glad you got it up and running and fixed. It's good to see that old iron working again.
Thanks!
Very good work Mr JT. The antique Persian carpet clearly did its thing; old Cat engine just needed a warm, loaded fart to clear up. Seems well matched to that implement as the work-up was smooth and Fergy did it easy. Bit quicker maybe? From Eyre Peninsula, South Australia.
Seems like the 30 footer is about perfect on my 1805, figured the 00 would like it too.
Next fall I’ll have to put it on the chisel and let it rip!
Great to see her doing what she is supposed to do. And like all those old engines, they just need a good load put through them to get back into shape. Looking forward to the upcoming field work videos!
Thanks!
GOOD JOB!
Woo Hoo!! Great to see her workin again. Looks like dirt worked up good too.
Thanks 👍
When you did “one more lap” I had to chuckle because I know exactly what it’s like when you’re having fun and don’t want to go home. Almost want to call the neighbors and ask if they wanted any tillage done huh? 😂 This is going to be a nice rig for you.
You nailed it 😉. I think she’s gonna be real nice all done!
The old girl did good!!
Thanks!
I think you got to be my brother , you love tractors as much as I do LOL love your channel thanks much BROTHER,
,
Thanks!
The 'ol 1800 is looking and sounding good!! I ran our MF 1805 on our 16' chisel plow on Friday....first time we've turned dirt here in WNY. Hopefully your stretch of decent weather continues!
Thanks! I hope so!
Good job mate👍the experts are proving wrong again 🤣cheers from down under 🇦🇺
Thanks 👍
that will be a hell of a pair of massey's once shes painted up real nice, way to go jt!
Thanks!
You are the man. Great job. Keep up the good work and be safe.
Thanks, will do!
Looks like the 1800 just needed to work a little bit. The smoke didn’t take too long to clear up. Hopefully it starts better and doesn’t use a bunch of oil. Thanks for the Videos.
Fingers crossed! Thanks!
Glad to see the 1800 working great. Nice video JT.
Thanks 👍
BEAUTIFUL-JIMMY.... BEAUTIFUL....NICE-ASS BARN-SHOT!!!
Thanks!
The camera shots from the roof are epic. What you won’t do for your viewers lol . Looks to be smoking less the longer you use it. Thx
Right! It cleared up really well!
Ole Girl getting the job done! Great to see old equipment at work. When’s the John Deere planters going to put some corn seed in the ground?
Very soon!
Does my sole good to see you in the dirt with the old lady . Really nice flying carpet on the floor , I have them everywhere . Great video JT , keep on making them 👍
Thanks! Will do!
A piece of that shinny flex hard alum duct, they use on dryers ,stoves,etc would look nice on that air tube,,most likely fit also
Youll have that on a big job
WELL DONE JT !!
Thanks!
Years ago when I was farming with a older fellow; we ran a Massey 1800 for a couple of years. We added a turbo charger to the engine and probably went up a gear while doing tillage. This lasted for a day or two, then the engine blew-up putting a rod through the block. That was the end of my Massey experience.
Well, I can see how putting a turbo on that motor would ruin it. I don’t think the bottom end of those were meant for that
Sad the Massey got the blame for a throw away CAT Engine.
True. Was thinking that myself
Good one J T . The massey ferguson 1800 is running great , i can see some red paint on her in the future .
That's the plan! 😉
Awesome job on that massive Massey jt!
Thank you!
It could do with a bit of fitted carpet underneath your bit of fancy carpet . A nice bit of Axminster would be nice. All the best from England, i just love the 1200 model as well.
Straight pipes please. 👍👍👍. So glad I stumbled across your videos.
Right on! Thanks!
Awesome looks like I get to see some fun action
Yes!
I thought that center piece was going to be your water mellon patch.Like the farmers did in my little town in southern illinois called Flora illinois lol!
It coulda been 😉
You don't need duals on that one ,the way it's set up,,it properly came from out west on the large wheat fields
Excellent video JT :) also knew 1800 Massey Ferguson tractor do job for you and had 100 % faith in you said first ! Also nice rotation tractors for feild work , crop put in also take off and transport to farm to farm or anywhere! Excellent work out for sure 👍 JT :) !
Thanks 👍
@@jtsbarnngrill6873 welcome JT :)
exhaust cleared up shortly after she got good and warm. Nice resurrection!
Yes! Thank you!

My 1805 is recommended to run at 160. That’s why I figured this one would be similar
Wonderful videos Farming equipment. thank you! Great job 🚜🚜♥♥
Thanks!
@@jtsbarnngrill6873
That's sweet, dig that old Massy! Thanks for sharing!
You bet!
Success 🎉. She looked great JT. Thanks for taking us along 😊.
Thanks for watching!
You sure are on a good roll. Keep it up 👍
Thanks, will do!
From my desk it looks like you are having entirely too much fun !! But if I was the one in the dirt under those tractors I might be pining for that desk job. Congrats on making a lot of hard work look so enjoyable, and on a long list of successful projects !!!
I was indeed having a blast! I did a desk/cubicle job for a few years….
I’ll take the dirt 😉😆
So happy that you got the old girl back in the field.
Hard work is paying off.
Have a Great upcoming week 😊
Thanks, you too!
Awesome video, love to see the older girls still working. Enjoy watching you knowledge and expertise on the work horses. Good luck in the future and Happy plowing!!
Thanks 👍
Can’t wait to see it after u paint it!
I think that will be the first project in the new shop
What an awesome win…….very happy to see the old girl back at work 👍
Thanks 👍
Promising start !
Thanks!
The old girl had to go back to work. All that TLC you gave her . Went worked it a bit the smoke cleared up. Love to see the old stuff brought back to life.

Congratulations on your string of successes, or lucky breaks. I am speaking of your recent forklift and garden tractor will it start videos. Wishing you continued success
Thanks! I appreciate it!
Love it looking good JT 👏👏
Thanks 👍
It’s so awesome to see it go again!!! Great job
Right on!
That rug really ties the room together.
Indeed it does lol
Hey Joe,,,nicely done!! Shame that beast was abandoned. Very cool to see her stretch her legs again. Another fine, blue mountain moment. Cheers 🍻
Right on!
Cleaned right up with a a good load. Got to love those old caterpillars! Figured she would worst case a set of injectors bit you don’t even need those at this point.
Right on!
I'm so happy to see that tractor I'm the field again. And yeah, I would have taken a few more passes up and down the field too!!!
I couldn’t help myself lol
A pryometer would be nice,so to see how hot things are running inside your engine under pulling loads
Nice to see those older tractors can still get the work done and not have big payments on them
You got that right!
Nice video JT the old girl did a good job.im happy for you.
Thanks 👍
Great to see that she's working good for you JT
Thanks!
Really enjoyed that thank you J T
Glad you enjoyed it!
It pulled that 30 ft tiller with no sweat. 😊
Sure did!
very satisfying I'm sure...another Joe from NZ!
Thanks!
Nothing like yardin on the throttle of an old diesel for the first time every spring eh
Bingo!
Wow JT. She cleaned up after a few rounds on that field. See if there's any puddles under her after sitting overnight. 😊😊
So far so good!
The Turd is working like a champ.
Thanks
From Denmark,
And your good old MF 1800 has also stopped smoking.
No more smoke coming out of the exhaust after it was just warmed through.
Right!
The old girl is puring like a little kitten...😊
First lap and a half there was more smoke than dust . Just like my 1500 . That’s normal , enjoy your beast. Moved my hydraulic tank on my 1500 years ago best place for it
Right on! Thanks!
Thanks for the video JT.
You bet!
You know your tractors we’re for the large scale, big wallet farmers in their day.
🚜🚜🚜🚜🚜
Yes, indeed
