Barnyard after dragging with the tractor
มุมมอง 253 ปีที่แล้ว
This video shows what the barnyard looks like after 2 hours of using the tractor and the drag implement to go over it and pull out dead tall grass, prickers, and other unwelcome volunteers along with more.bricks, wood, wire, pieces of metal, trash, - you name it. It was full of junk. There is lots more to do. More to pick up as well. Part of the process of reclaiming what was neglected by others.
Reclaiming the barnyard, before step 2
มุมมอง 93 ปีที่แล้ว
The barnyard was overgrown and a mess. Several greenhouses used to be here but were taken away or fell apart. We are working to clean it up and reclaim the land. We spent 2 days picking up trash, old wood, bricks, cinder blocks, parts of this and that. Lots of metal too. It was neglected and now we get to get back what someone else let fall into ruin.

Mitsubishi MT372 tractor overview and 1st run

First overview of this tiny subcompact tractor from approximately 1988 and then a brief run around with it. When I talk about the safety on the clutch meant to say engage instead of disengage. It was a long day 😅. Anyway, loads of fun. Hope you enjoy.

Awesome solution. And excellent lighting, so many mower videos are filmed at midnight its seems they are so dark. 👍🤟
Thank you so much for giving us the solution. We had no idea what to do and your video is amazing. Thank you again.
pay attention to your glow plug inductor wait till it glows about 30 to 40 seconds before you crank

Great tip wish I had watched this one first .
Do you still have the tiller and would you sell it?
I’ve had to R&R the engine bolts to change belt 😢
how too change hydro fluid and gear oil
where can you get tires and parts
Tires and parts all require some research and cross reference sleuthing. Tires, filters and belts/hoses being the easiest. Parts are hard. I have found some entire tractors that I have tried to buy for parts unsuccessfully. Even though they were rusting hunks, owners felt they were worth more because they could be restored. So still searching. Good luck.
I put a 16hp vanguard on mine. Does that muffler setup disperse the heat okay? Mine’s like two pipes into one and goes down into a muffler and gets.. what I would think is more hot than it should ;) thanks!
A little late to the show, but nice find!
Great tip. Removed the 4 Bolts and muffler shroud. Engine moved and I was able to slide the engine enough to push belt past the keepers. Quick and easy. Thanks again for generously sharing this tip!
I have no spark ?
Older machines will have points and condenser that could be the issue. Points corrode. Loads of info on the interwebs on how to clean.
Hello! What type of battery does this mower take? I am having trouble identifying what battery is used for my 7100 series riding mower. Any help would be appreciated.
Hi, I use a 51R battery in mine. They are a bit pricey but they fit well and have good cranking power.
Thank you very much!!
Great video, you just save me some unnecessary work...thanks.
In early 1986 I took a job at the local high school. I mowed 28 acres with this model tractor for 11 years. The fellow who did the lawns with it from brand new ran it over a hill and into a pile of cinder blocks while mowing and tore the belly mower up pretty bad. That was the mess I inherited. After 4 years we replaced the belly mower with a 4 ft finish cut mower on the rear. I mowed with it in the summer and pushed snow with it all winter. Oh the hours I spent on that tractor. I did suffer some permanent hearing loss because the engine is quite metallic sounding. In tall grass the exhaust pipe points forward so it would belch smoke back in my face and turn my skin black. I ran it out of fuel out in the field one time on an slight uphill slant and while trying to get the fuel system bled out I got an eye full of diesel fuel that caused me some permanent eye damage. I should have worn ear protection and eye protection but I was in my 20's and gonna live forever. It was a constant cycle of mowing from one end of the campus to the other and just as you finished it was time to start the cycle all over again. There were no major problems with it at all, but at one point there were some issues with the hydraulics not wanting to drop the mower. One time while mowing the football field the grass was quite tall after a week of rain. I was clipping along pretty good when out of nowhere the tractor and mower about jumped off the ground. One of the juinior high students had left a green colored lead shot put in the tall grass and I never saw it. It's years later and there I times I am mowing with my Kubota B7100 (which looks alot like this Mitsubishi) and I will be reminded of my old friend I spent all those hours with. We solved alot of problems together out there mowing. I don't know where it ever ended up. I transferred to another county job and it was shortly after that they replaced the old Mitsubishi with a 755 John Deere. But that old MT372 is permanently etched into my mind.
Wow what a wonderful memory of it all! Unfortunately I don't have a belly mower for it. I did try my 5 foot finish mower and it just couldn't handle it. Been on the lookout for a 4 ft one but they seem rare. Thanks for sharing your memories, I really appreciate it.
i got one also.. you r the William Henry Dana of the compact diesel
U can’t slide the engine on the xp 50 🤣
What state do you live in?
I would prefer not to post publicly but send me your email and I'll let you know.
@@jjsmachine I didn't hear from you. Did you email me
@@engineclinic Hi Mike, I didn't get your email address
@@jjsmachine it keeps deleting it.
@@engineclinic Try typing it like Mike at Gmail dot com
Great minds think alike.
Does it have live power(PTO)? Are filters(oil,fuel,air) available/easy to get?
Yes a 3 point hitch and live PTO. Have not done service yet as not due, but the filters on it are known brands
Great video!...I wonder do we need to step on the clutch while starting the engine?
Yes always have to step on the clutch when starting
In case you leave it in gear, which is common practice when you shut off the engine with a manual transmission. You’ll probably destroy the motor if it’s in gear and you hit the starter. Most vehicles have a clutch switch that makes you clutch when you starting

That pulley has hub on both sides. One side is thicker and had the key impressed. Wish I could in your video which hub is at the bottom.
You took the pulley off then?
Pretty cool. Solved it for me.
Where are the retaining bolts?
For the engine? There are 4 bolts that drop down through the base of the engine and through the frame of the riding mower that you access from the engine bay and then underneath the frame. Loosen those and pull out and then you can move the engine around enough to maneuver the pulley to get the old belt off and the new one on.
@@jjsmachine Ty so much, appreciate it
@@jjsmachine unless I missed something I had to go up through a hole in the steering sector plate to get at one bolt. Even had to move drag link out of the way.
@@kenhilson786 not all machines are the same but most just have 4 bolts holding the engine to the frame. They are at the 4 corners at the base of the engine. That's all you should need to get a little wiggle room.to get the belt off and a new one on.
Very Good!.
what about the rest??
What else would you like to see? Did that video a while ago but I can do an update
@@jjsmachine how does the belt go on each of the pulleys? My belt broke so I'm not sure how to route it back into the drive pulleys??
@@Drdickie101 Not sure how soon you need an answer. Pouring rain here for the next several days due to the tropical storm. I should be able to take a picture or two Friday or Saturday.
@@Drdickie101 Will, the V-side of the belt go to the v-shaped inner pulleys and flat-side belt to flat-shaped pulleys.
Can only route one way 🙂
Thanks for sharing your knowledge. Looks like I’ve got my work cut out for me.
I'm interested in picking up different attachments for the Simplicity 7100 series. Anything you have, feel free to send info my way. Thanks!
Just an fyi, the engine in the 7117s are a kohler cast iron twin cylinder... I used to own one, til I blew it up.... Completely my fault... Lol
Nice find! Lots of great parts!
I just bought a Mitsubishi tractor its an older grey tractor. It starts but once I start running the tractor it dies. Have you had any issues with yours? Thanks
No I haven't. Just hard to start in really cold weather. Does it die when just sitting or when you try to move? Can you accelerate while just sitting?
@@jjsmachine It will die just setting and while running. It ran this morning while just sitting in the shop for 45 minutes then started pushing snow and it died. It seems like a fuel issue but I'm not sure. If I can get it figured out I think it will be a great tractor.
@@byoder0420 definitely sounds like a fuel issue. I'd start with draining the bowl in case there is water. Then I'd use some fuel treatment that helps clean the injectors and see what that does. Also check the fuel tank for water and dirt. You may have to drain and clean it out.
Where can find parts?
Hope you have found by now your hood is setting on your battery cable is y it is high on the left side
So cool!
Just watched your video, I don’t know what you have sorted out but I would be interested in attachments like the blower or tiller if your decide to sell. Thanks
Everything is packed up for the winter so I can't go through it all now but spring is around the corner.
What coolant do you use in the 372?
I've only done fluid checks when I got it so haven't done a radiator flush yet. It's due at 800 hours. I don't have manuals yet. Still working on that.
@@jjsmachine ok thank you
How come you didn't pick it up in the bucket?
Sing with me, "All by myself". It only weighed about 700 pounds. Very old concrete from the base of an old silo built in the late 1800's. I just had no room or any way to get it in the bucket. It was in the ground in the back of a bay of an implement shed. So I dug around it and slip chained it 😂
Would be willing to sell the front hitch with the pulley on it?
I'll have to check and get back to you.
i have a 3415h and its amazing
Yes they are quite the beast of a machine!
Welcome to the Mt 372 family. 👍 I have one just like yours my is a older model I think is 84. Take care of it because it's hard to find parts for it. Keep up the good work and let me know when you doing a show about the electrical harness of your tractor. I need to know how it's
Thank you for the comment and interest. What would you like to see regarding the electrical harness? I finally found front tires for it, unfortunately I could only get turf tires. I would have preferred at tires but the ratios and rims wouldn't work.
Great haul!!
Wow! Little Monster!!
