- This is a 1959 McCormick International TD5 crawler, cold start with diesel engine, Pippin blade. This crawler has a TA, BD144 diesel engine, 1000 rpm rear PTO, 5 roller high floatation track, and "snow" cleats.
never park and leave the blade up always set it on the ground on wood to keep it from freezing to the ground
It shouldn't be low compression as you just rebuilt it.They are a pre-combustion engine same as was used in B-414 tractor
Just a word of advise, if you leave your machine outside in the winter you should park the tracks on a plank. If the tracks freeze to the ground you can snap a track chain.
ALWAYS LEAVE BLADE DOWN, ALSO.
Sounds like a great running tight, fresh motor.
Mark this is a wonderful video that you have shared with us, I have an International B100 (B for British) Drott with 4 in 1 bucket, why I like your video so much is that your machine starts just like mine, I have had people say to me there must be something wrong with the engine but you and I know there is not, its just how they start, that's a wonderful job on the engine rebuild you have done, she sounds great, just a side note you have a lovely cat there (the animal!!), like ours I can see he's a bit of a character!!! Take care Mark.
Check out th-cam.com/video/EiPfodqAIeI/w-d-xo.html at 11:26 to 11:58 there is a TD-5 plowing then I found your video. Nice Crawler!
Good video, Mark . Nice detail, I noted that you told us the oil's weight, I was actually wondering about that for this cold weather start.
I must say, ( being greedy I guess ) I was looking for more snow clearing video, just to see how it works.
I operated a U.S. Navy surplus TD-15, many years ago, back in the 1960's, as our Car Club got together and bought this from the military disposal group, and used it to build a race track.
This TD-15 was a gasoline/diesel engine, in that it was started on gasoline then when warmed up enough, it was switched over to diesel, then ran for the rest of the time on that.
I like the size of your McCormick TD-5, t me it's a nice size to have for those small to medium jobs .
Thanks for the video.
excellent video. I notice it is fitted with the inline CAV injection pump which is very unusual. It also means there is an excess fuel/cold start button on the outside face of the pump which you just push in to activate. Most of the these engines had the CAV DPA pump. With the excess fuel in and a good heat it should pick up much faster though it will still run a bit ragged for a minute or two. keep up the great work
The 4104 had an optional splitter between the engine and the transmission. If memory serves me well I think it was called a Hydroshift.
this thing is so hard starting with a fresh motor, jeez. At freezing it barely started. I would plug this thing in all winter with either a 300 watt incandescent bulb or water heater. That is about as cold blooded as my neighbors 76 ford truck. And that is with working glow plugs. The older, much older TD-6 would start at -30 with the proper motor oil. I think we put lower grade oil in than your 15-40, like 5-30.
Guess cleaning the snow out of the tracks is somewhat a little easier than cleaning mud out. Not anything worse than tracks when froze up!!!!!
Liked your 2 videos. We have a TD5 series B crawler with factory blade, 3 point linkage, reducer and pto reducer to 540 rpm. Good little machine. currently looking for a hydraulic filter for it. We don't get so cold here in Queensland Australia.
We hada b series here Tas Australia agood machine wth a A tilt blade done a lot of contracting with it the final drives & steering clutches were a bit on the weak side but we did work it hard then bought a BTD 6 good rugged machine
Hello. I. Have. A t. T5. Good. Tractor. Except. I. Need. A. Final. Drive. Badly. . Please. Call me at. 831. 750. 5641. Thanks. Gene
Hi
Nice I seen the other video nice machine I like those backhoe s the international harvesters I remember playing with the toy version as a kid
Very fun to see it fixed up and running. Nice job
blablablabla !!!!!!!!..................
Noticed you have a 4106 also.
Yes, the 4106 is a 1964. I've nearly completed a full mechanical restoration.... the only major component to replace is the rear axle. I have one for it but I'm looking into putting a 2 speed diff in it.
That's an angle drive diff. Can you get a two speed version. You could put a V 730 automatic transmission in it.
Correct, it's an angle drive diff, and no a 2 spd rear end was never made.... but I had heard of one old timer making one for a 4104. I have a partial parts list and a description of the machine work that was required. Unfortunately, no one have ever confirmed he completed the project.....
Popular or not, bad rebuild for sure.
OMG its running and the blade is on it!!!!
Gerard! Yes, it's running!
Is that a 3500a backhoe in the background?
James Wood , its a 1974 IH 3400a with the D179 three cylinder and 17’ backhoe and thumb. Its got the reverser transmission. Very reliable old bone!
Nice cat.
