why bend the cover ? there was only couple more screws .
that totally annoyed me too. It is not his machine, so let's do some damage to it????? What a jerk move that was!
Looks like a 256 ci engine. Should be the same as a 6/68-75 5000 or a 5100 or 5600.
Dipstick is under the starter, these fords always have the dipstick mounted to the flange where the oil pan bolts up. It’s a short little thing.
Man, that is one helluva nice machine! Some new glass and an AC kit if your buddy wants and she’s ready to go to work!
The dip oil dip stick is on the left side of the engine, down low. That is where it is on my 550 tlb. She is knocking quite loud. Could be low on oil or rod knock. One of the wires on key switch goes to the manifold heater. My 550 has to be in neutral on the 4 speed box to start
That thing is in great shape for its age
Some msnufacturers use straight minus wire from battery to starter ground to ensure strong enough current. Positive wire goes to a solenoid, so that wiring is almost normal.
Nice work. Yeah it’s sad to see how much people scrap good stuff
It’s a 1086 not a 1066. It’s one of the last models of a true International tractor before it was sold to CASE. The tractor if bought at the right price would be a money maker.
Do you think the old international tractor's were better than the case.
@@martymartin2894 Nope.
@@martymartin2894. Yes 100%
The 88 series was the last models before Tenneco bought the ag line.
@@martymartin2894 There's a reason why they are red with the IH still on the side, along with a reason why they are using the IH Magnum transmission rather than the Case Powershift.
They probably parked the backhoe because of the steering problem. Well done on your troubleshooting. I enjoy this type of stuff.
Seeing you eventually tinker on the big wheel loader would be cool. It would be a shame to see it get scrapped especially if it ended up being good enough to be useable. :)
Cool equipment it brings back memories glad some is being saved.
👍
Thanks for your efforts to keep it all alive.
With some simple lock picking skills you could have easily picked that ignition switch
Something to think about
Sweet start up Tyler.
Amazing starting and working good work
Love your videos keep up your good work:)
Great video!
Keep up the good work 🖒
Good.job Nice tractors good show 😃👏👏👏👍👍👍👍😍
Great video👍🏼🇨🇦
Those machines will do you proud even if they are 40 years old.
I have a Ford 655 D with 1400 hours the motors are the greatest when they're good and tight good reliably starting with just a little with the ether and the very cold
WOW ...What a find hope you get it could make some good coin off of it for sure. I would love to have that in my driveway.
We had a 750 or 7500? It’s been a bit but it had hydraulic steering was great as long as you could keep oil in the system thanks for bringing back some memories for me 😂😂 fun machine to work .
Did you look under the visor?
Nice
That machine looks pretty good.
Too good to be true lol
@@dieseJL fired up good with no starting fluid.
When digging, the hoe should be up off the ground, a friend of mine was digging with a backhoe once and he didn’t lift the backhoe high enough and bent the axle rods in the rear axle because the back tires were still touching the ground while he was digging being really ruff with the equipment. But that’s because he wasn’t trained for that peace of equipment.
i went to a scrap yard and found a nice long 1 inch forklift cable to turn into jumper leads. i put 800A alligator clips on to jump most things. by the looks of it you might consider the same. or an auto electrician friend used a chain for ground and a giant positive.
Was there anything inside the snowmobile trailer?
Very interesting,let’s see it at work. Almost too much face time. It will be interesting to see the rest of the equipment.
Good night from the mango farm
Looked like the first key was the correct key. My family ran all Ford hoes in Canada. The ignition you pulled is not factory.
Hey buddy don't know if you said already. But what is your day job?
Save it!👍🏼
Geart works
I was waiting for ya the hammer your jeep, you left it so close to an unknown backhoe !!!
Could change the $ 10 key switch key comes with a new one
What is that unintentional metallic contact?
I've been following this series and have no idea what scrap value might be. Can you give us any idea of how you determine a value? Do you basically just pay whatever scrap value might be? You estimated the backhoe at about 20k pounds. If scrap is at $100 a ton that would be about ten tons. So would you pay $1000 for the machine? Just very curious.
👍👍
Ohh my td 9 my peoples had 1 as I was in my early 20s . A stuck steering clutch project turned into all the bearings in the final drive and seals then idlers and rollers lead to track frames and drive chain. Never got to finish things happened within my family n wound up scrapped. Shameful
Cool tracter well dine on getting it going and half waybthrough your video there was no sound
Thanks for sharing your adventures. Well done video good edit. Very entertaining.
Take a look at three or four very successful TH-camrs, Jesse Muller, Andrew Camarata, Diesel Creek and Marty T. Each of them have been successful showing equipment videos with little if any face time. This is a positive observation and will help you to succeed just like them.
Did you find out what ever happened to the John Deere with the sickle bar mower??
My mistake . Dip stick not in the same place as my 550. 3sparewashers is correct.
1086 tractor. Probably 10,000 to12,000 bucks. Running and working
Engine needs some work that pinging or knocking sound I hear in the video isn't normal but good news is it hasn't came apart yet so it can be rebuilt but deff needs some engine work
Pinging? Knocking? LOL.
@@ShainAndrews or whatever term you think is better man whatever makes you happy just giving my thoughts on it as someone whos around alot diesel construction equipment everyday
Great video but there's something wrong with the audio, especially for those listening with headphones.
Dude you bent the cover in the cab.
That. Sucks. Otherwise cool vid.
yep, that disrespect to the owners of the machine ticked me off too. If someone lets you tinker on their stuff, then that means they trust you and you do not cause unnecessary damage to someone else's property.
It hurts my brain too 😭 lol
Why didn’t you check the engine oil before you tried to start it?
because he was too lazy to spend more time to find the dipstick, so he just decided that because it was not his machine anyway so who cares if something gets damaged.
That machine was made September 21, 1985. Give or take at 9:00 AM.
That is what is known in the excavation world as a good enough to get the job done model my ex father in law would say Everytime he saw a ford no ford never made a working backhoe that could keep up with a case or a cat!
I’d buy it even if your buddy wanted it or not.
I’d fix that back hoe I’ve fixed my 555b in worse shape I wish I could have found one like that. That’s a great machine
😁👍👍
pos goes to the solenoid and neg goes to earth on the starter body quite simple!
This machine doesn't look anything like a scrap machine. Tires are like new. Looks like it wasn't out long in weather either. No mold or anything on it.
It's sad that people don't want anything to do with equipment and they don't no what they have so they just junk it even though it's in weeds doesn't mean it's junk... The best thing is when the man gets old where he can't do anything with what he has it's better if he sells it to someone who can use it.. otherwise it could all end up in a scrap yard
😃😃😃
diggers don't have a pto, hand throttle is on the right side of the dash right in front of you. the tractor was a 1086 omg you know sweet fa about any thing
So basically there was nothing wrong with it not even a flat tyre. That heavy knock in the motor might be a problem. How long has it been sitting.
Sigh... I have never seen a video of so much losses to the "shredder" before.... at this point I would have offered to buy the property housing "said' machines, just to have the chance to save them.
I could have told ya myself that buying a random key from Amazon wasn;t going to work. keys are amde for specific locks, buying a random key wont work.
In the older construction and farm machinery side of things many machines have common brand specific type ignition/ door key with only 2 different versions available. The problem comes when guys swap switches to another generic auto parts store switch or you just buy the wrong key maybe for a newer type ford machine like Tyler possibly did. One youtuber I watch changes all his equipment to CAT style ignition switches so 1 key type type fits all his equipment. I also have a massive bunch of keys here that I used to take to auctions with me to start all types of different equipment brands. The newer stuff has more security features to stop it getting stolen so it's not that easy with some of it now.
HYDRAULICS require higher engine revs to provide proper fluid flow. IH tractors have loyal followers making them highly needed by farmers and large land owners. JimInCincy.....
Not smart to start an engine that's been sitting for a long time without checking the oil or even replacing it 😕
It is a 6600 tractor
No it isn’t. It’s a backhoe. It would be more like a 5610 or 6610.
no power fluid. running engine; pump is junk, one pint of ps fluid ten bucks du
Everyone seems to think new and make payments. People who own them get old and really could care less about this equipment so just scrap it and no one else can use it... Even worse, Many people won't walk across the street to help a neighbor if his/their farm was on fire. No one trusts the other person because of something said or done at some time. You might just start making notes in your phone since that is the new pencil and paper. I know your busy, yet wonder why you have troubles remembering a week of things done or accomplished... is that your M.O. at home? I'm seventy four now and yes, I too do have troubles remembering where something is at but as young as you are causes me to worry about how much stress your under. I guess people just don't care anymore about much of anything but themself.
Scrappers are the worst
Love the channel but this one is a bit too obvious. It has brand new tires and not a bit of green mold or anything from sitting out in the weather. Looks like it was driven out of a dry shed and parked their.
I agree it wasn’t sitting for that long but I am being honest that no one around could tell me if it ran and worked, how well and the last time it ran. I figured I would find out for myself and take you guys along with me 🤷🏻♂️
@@dieseJLno bother I like the channel and wish u every success.
Don't buy it get a John Deere 4430 or a 4440
16:17 Nice first start after figuring out the hacked up electrical system! Cant believe it turned over & started right up no problem. You gotta get an easy one every once in a while! Its sad that people will just scrap something like that so easily. I guess we're built differently than most people huh? 👍🏻👌🏻🛠️🔧🔩🚜⚠️🚧🏗️⚡💥💨💨
