- In this video I work on a Ferguson TED20 just to try and get it running. I replace the fuel tap assembly and dismantle the carburettor which is a Zenith 28G.

Lance. You’re a bloody diamond. Just bought my first tractor. A little Fergie. Your videos are fantastic. I’m learning everything from you. Thank you.
I hope it goes well for you, they are a simple little machine.
All the videos of yours I've watched and its only just dawned on me your left handed,very interesting and informative as usual thanks.
Thanks Steve, Yep a leftie for sure.
Excellent and interesting video, Lance
Great video! Really enjoyed this. Thanks for posting.
Thanks for watching
I've always steered clear of carbs and fuel pumps, but after watching you videos I'll certainly be having a go in the future. When I got my E27N it would run on petrol for a while then stop..after a while it would start again and then stop. After a lot of head scratching and elimination it turned out the previous owner had change a fuel line and had left the olive too far up the pipe causing the pipe to bottom out on the casing and only letting a drybble of fuel to the carb. a minute with a hacksaw was all it took
An interesting fact about thread tape...it was only developed to be a pipe thread lubricant. The fact it also acted as a sealant was a lucky coincidence and a headache to many of us
I never knew that about the thread tape, these tractors are often that old there is no telling what Farmer fixes have been done.
Thanks for the video Lance. Keep them coming. They are a big help.
Just a thought about the float test of your repair. Since the density of gasoline is only 3/4 that of water, there are situations where it would float in water, but not in gasoline.
Yes I suppose it would but my main aim was to check for bubbles to make sure I soldered it up properly.
Love the videos mate
Thanks Sam .
Good stuff Lance, I got a set of AF spanners if you need them mate. Also I find a 50/50 mix of cellulose thinners and kerosene is the best for cleaning up old carbs, just submerge the carb in and leave it a few days. Keep up the good work mate.
G Day Andy, I have never tried the thinner and kerosene, I have a glass bead blaster so I use it for most jobs.
nice storm bird in the background. Also that timing. Yesterday mine started leaking fuel all over the place
You have to get lucky some times lol.
Great job
Thankyou.
hi Lance, got three feet of snow here and haven't got to the tractor yet, better days ahead
Wow 3 feet seems a lot from down here, lol.
G'day Lance. That is one grungy carburetor. The one on my lawn mower just gets a few black speck and it stops running. That mess would probably kill it dead forever.
G day Harrold, 65 years old this tractor it probably ate grunge for breakfast lol. Poor old thing.
Great video as usual Lance, interesting that there's a mix of imperial and metric fasteners there! I would have guessed with the age of the tractor it would all be imperial, wrong again...
Yes it is a bit odd and a pain in the bum thus the shifting spanner, you would think they were imperial for sure.
They'll definitely all be imperial sizes on a te20 the UK didn't go metric until well after they were built haha. Maybe just wear/mess on the bolts/nuts 👌
"You're a better man than I am, Gunga din"
Thank you for your reply Lance. Mate drinking beer , what's how i think i buggered it up in the first place. I'll give what you recommended a go, when i run out of the magic liquid?
Cheers..........
Lance, it's great to see someone else with a passion for keeping these old girls running and is willing to share their knowledge. Do you mainly restore Fergies?
G Day Dave, No I have done an Allis B, a few Fergies, a John Deere 420 Hi Crop, and picked up a Farmall 100 the other day. I have a Farmall AM&D in the barn so seems to be Fergies at present but what ever comes my way really.
Very nice, sounds like a nice collection! We collect and restore pre-super letter series Farmalls.
Hello Lance, I have a question regarding the TEA-20 that I am restoring. When replacing the oil filter I noticed an adjustment locking nut and screw on the oil filter housing. Can you tell me anything about this adjuster??? Look forward to all your videos, they are very very much appreciated. Thanks!! Spring is awfully late arriving in Sault Ste. Marie Ontario (49th parallel) this year. Wish I could send you some snow.
G Day Fred, That is the pressure relief valve for the engine oil pressure.
Have you tried the Knipex wrench pliers? bloody sight better then a crescent wrench most of the time, they don't round off the nuts so well though :)
G day Den, Yes I do have some somewhere I will have to track them down again, the little cresent wrenches do a good job for the not so tight stuff though. I find Kingchrome brand the best as they open further than many other brands.
Hi Lance , I've got a T20 that hunts at high revs any suggestions , carb adjustments maybe , question is which one
G Day Paul, Go through my governor adjusting video then hold the tractor at high revs (flat out) and adjust the main jet to get it running smoothly. The main jet it the big thumb screw.
would be nice if you had some wrenches or spanners , i dont like nut rounders but they do make good hammers
G Day Jerry, Yes I often do use the correct spanners but on these carbies they have a lot of rounded corners from shifting spanners and often the best way is to use a shifter once more, also there is a mix of metric and imperial on these so I find it easier and quicker with just a shifter. They do make a good hammer though lol.
Great video series. I have started on my TED20. My fuel tank is rusted on the inside. Any suggestions how to clean it? I noticed you did not install a new gauze on top of the glass bowl. Is that part not available? thanks
Yes it is available but as there is screens on the banjo bolts probably not needed if they are all in good condition.
Hey Lance, I have a T30 Ferguson and I just rebuilt the carburetor and cleaned out the oil bath filter. The tractor runs great without the oil bath line attached to the carburetor but when I attach it and run the tractor for a bit then shut it off, the carburetor floods out, runs up the oil bath line, fills up and dumps into the oil. Any ideas? Tractor man in need!
G Day John, I think your needle and seat are not sealing as they should. When you stop your tractor the carb bowl will fill with fuel and the float will push on the needle and cut further fuel supply off until the tractor uses some fuel from the bowl. I would suggest checking the needle and seat.
I have a24T2 CARBURATOR and where your main jet is ,i have what seems to be a drain that you can unscrew by hand. it is treaded ,then goes to a point, is it just a drain or a jet of some kind? thanks
The main jet has a big mixture screw that can be adjusted for tractor load, usually 1 3/4 turns out from full in.
Hey Lance, i was wondering if you know if a TO-20 distributer will work in a TE-20?
Im sorry but I dont know,
thats alright, until today i thought i had a to20 but scratched the paint off the name plate and realized the tractor is a te20. its been sitting for years im gonna try and get it going your videos will help me alot!
That lack of fuel flow when the fuel bowl is fitted is what my TEA20 does. The bowl fills quickly, plus rust particles, once I start the tractor though. I am just replacing the tank as it is full of rust, refurbed the fuel tap and carby is next on the list. I'm expecting the carby to be full of crap too.
Carb most likley will have some, worth having a look for sure .
Hi again ,this drain is located on the front facing the rad direction at the base of the bowl ,is it just a drain ? thanks
The main jet has a knurled outer edge on a round knob and the drain is a smaller T handle
@@BundyBearsShed Hi Lance,you were right on the money,thanks again.
Mate you're like a walking encyclopedia when it comes to fergies. wish you were my neighbour. i played with my carbie a few times, just can't seem to get it right., she runs ok ? except the air mixtures are doing my head in.
G day Danny, You would need to drink beer to be my neighbour lol. To set the main jet just rev it hard and adjust it to run sweet while up on high idle. Go a little richer than lean. On the idle just adjust it in turn with the idle speed screw until you find a happy medium.
Hey bundy bear, do u have a video on how to tune the carby once it's on and running?
I think so, just go 1 3/4 turns out on both screws and that will get you close. I think I might have done it on the barn find tractor.
You were right the first time mate seal-on tape PT tape should be banned it is the main cause of leaks in the plumbing industry too mate
Yeah there should be a law against it I reckon.
Lance,
I reviewed your www.queenslandtractorspares.com.au website and found the excellent reference on TE20 Serial Numbers. Much appreciated resource.
I now understand that a TED20 is a Ferguson Tractor with Standard TVO (Tractor Vaporising Oil) engine. I would assume that petrol-paraffin is no longer available in Australia and United Kingdom. Do you use kerosene fuel to run this tractor after you start the engine with petrol?
No it is not available I run all of mine on Premium unleaded with no problems at all.
What is the name of the bar you took off the back of the carb please someone reply need help
Either the choke rod or the governor rod.
Bundy Bears Shed not that one the one that goes from the carburetor to the front next to the fan. The bar has a blot on one end and is connect to the carburetor.
What fuel does the tractor take
Petrol in my case.
I need carburetor gasket.have you one?
We would have a kit for sure, look at the shop web site.
Hate to see a shifting spanner used incorrectly..
Very handy tool can be used as a light hammer as well, I do know how it should be used but sometimes it is not all that practical to do so. I don't get too worried by it.
Ha Ha I can just imagine
Didn't mean a hammer, at around the 1:40 minute mark you used it backwards, and it does matter. Use it like that on something tight and you will stuff the shifter.
No just a old fashioned Aussie trained motor mechanic who was taught to use tools properly, and dislikes people who should know better abusing them.
I think you'll find Tubal Cain disproved the theory of "correct" orientation of an adjustable spanner; th-cam.com/video/yjYWpqaqS-4/w-d-xo.html He showed it doesn't matter which way round you use it because you shouldn't use it in high torque situations anyhoo! So I'm with Lance and use it whichever way works..
I can tel. U every metering jet
Good work.
Straight into the ultrasonic cleaner with that. Go do something else for 5 Hours.
I bead blast them now a days.
