    There is a very distinctive sound when you hammer the throttle on a two popper that I have never been able to figure out being a six cylinder guy lol

    Ross, I owned a VAC once. Bought it at an auction and used it for about 5 weeks. I sold it as soon as I realized how hard it was to access things for repair. A nice running tractor but hard to work on. Not a good combination. Especially in 1000 degree weather. 😂

    The flip up hood is a good ideal on the case but they should have made it where you can flip it forward. The Ferguson TO-20 we had as a kid had a flip forward hood and it was really handy

    • @rosstheoliverman
      @rosstheoliverman  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yeah this is just backwards. Someone at the factory wasn’t thinking.

      Me too. Or should I say #metoo because I definitely feel like a victim when I have to work on them.

    I feel your pain on the John Deere. Last September I spent a week and a half working on the paint on my Oliver 66 and it's absolutely nowhere near perfect, but it's good enough for me. On that orange tractor, I think I would probably have been so frustrated that I would have cut that flip-up hood off with a torch. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

    Two cylinders seem to be really finicky on air-fuel mixture. If you get them rich enough to start without choke half the time they'll foul out spark plugs when it idles for awhile or when you're just putting around a show ground

    Those fenders on the B are 700 to 800 by themselves the way they are. Your correct those clam shell fenders are getting hard to find in good shape.

    I think you did a nice job on great grandpa’s Deere. The one nice thing about these old John Deere’s is there are plenty of people around with experience working on them. Your uncle looked like a kid having a blast on a carnival ride. Them waffle eat’n Can-add-di-ans pronounce it dec-els…weird.😂

  • @fredbaumberger8988
    @fredbaumberger8988 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    My B and 60 I pull the choke until it fires, yours runs much more better, I think I would have taken a big hammer to the Case

    • @danw6014
      @danw6014 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      My 60 is dialed in pretty good. 3/4 choke and not much throttle until it fires and 1/4 choke for a minute or two.

    Ross that design of that dashboard and everything is a pain in the🫏🐓🐷🐮. The John deer is looking good. Is fair starting this coming up weekend? When you go to put the decals on the tractors that is neat if you videotape putting on the decals can see how you get them lines up and looks like it should. Thanks Michael

  • @dwalke26
    @dwalke26 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    That hitch sounds like the 801 hitch Deere offered, they used it on the letter series and the 10 series (50,60,70). The 20 series 2 cylinders had 3 point integrated into the build.

    • @rosstheoliverman
      @rosstheoliverman  ปีที่แล้ว +2

    My grandfather's one demand before buying a new '42 A was fenders. So his boys could ride somewhat safely. Rare option. One of the few 2 cyl that will start with 2 or 3 rolls of the flywheel. Looks great. Be safe.
