Hip Hip Horray!! Just like from the dealer showroom so many years ago. I grew up with the "60 , 70, 80, 66, 76 and 86 series. They were tough. For the first tractor I built for modified tractor pulling , I used a 66 series rear and transmission with a 454 Chevy motor. The rear and trans held together for 4 years. Had lots of fun pulling in shows from Delaware to Florida. When I was about 7 / 8 yrs. old, my dad and I would go to our friends and neighbors with our "60" equipped with a front mount table saw and cut their "slab wood" {available for almost next to nothing from the local sawmill} to stove length for them to use in their cook stoves and wood heaters. Dang, those were some good days back then. Great job on the rebuild, the camera work and explaining the process. LOVE ME SOME OLIVER TRACTORS.
My God she is sweet ! That Gal is rock solid ! Thank you for bringing us along ! Ine fine piece of American History ! The 1950T is ready to roll ! 2 years she been waiting . God bless and I pray for a good year for you! Best yield's and best price for your hard work ! . Thank you for bringing us along ! Awesome video's !
Ethan, get the soft washers, the one thing I learned, used washers don't always work because exactly as you said. They deform. Yea, put that chisel plow on her and give a good solid day's work. That WILL seat those rings. I'm not a fan of the dyno, did that on a tractor and it just felt like they never seated until we slapped on a moldboard plow.
Sweet. Excellent work. Always a good feeling to hear an engine come back to live after all that work. Yeah, I know all about those washers on the banjo fittings. Had an awful time with my 190XT after I got the pump rebuilt. Two lines I had to replace the washers and one line I had to bend some more to get it lined up better. Now, my father in law's 1850 has got one leaking so I gotta check that out. Pain in the but those washers are. I can't wait to see it on the dyno. Sounds very good.
Glad the good things are still coming! I was waiting on this video all weekend anticipating to see how the build turned out. Always a great feeling with a successful engine rebuild. Way to go Ethan!
You really kicked ass with this project. Congrats on getting it done the right way and showing us how it's done. Thanks for sharing all these awesome videos. Glad you are happy with it and can't wait to see it on the Dyno or doing some chiselin'
Sounds good. After a rebuild makes you realize how much she was worn. Good to hear the new job is working out. Starting mine next monday. More money, but less time. Its a trade off for sure. Local auction here is the same way. Spend more timeing bsing then buying. Looking forward to the next vids. Dyo will tell all ;)
Great job Ethan! I am working on a Farmall H in my garage right now. I am not doing an engine rebuild, just odds-n-ends, but It has been more work than I initially thought. So I do understand all the time and effort you put in- things that happen off camera and take forever😀
Good deal on tractor, with that done and out of way you can focus on your other things so when it's go time your ready lol thanks for sharing i sure do enjoy your videos
Great job Ethan. There's a sweet 1655 in that auction I would like to have. If I wasn't so busy I would go but have to work to support my farming habit
Like you said I’d imagine it’ll pull that planter like nothin. We currently run a 1760 8row on a 4040 which is about 90 horse but it’s turned up pretty hot lol. Pulls it up and down hills like nothing. 13000 hours original engine and trans. Even has a crack in the side of the block we assume from a casting flaw been like that for years. Figure it’s not worth overhauling the engine since the block is junk and I got a 7700 combine engine I’ll put in it. But she just keeps chugging along! And your right in balancing the rotating assembly. Just about everything I build gets it done. It makes a huge difference for sure.
Nice work....!!! Just as an FYI for your back pocket. Harleys use an aluminum washer with a rubber gland molded on the inner diameter for the brake master cylinders(come in both 10 and 12mm). Not sure how they'd work at injector pump pressures....
Very good young man, she sounds so sweet, love the turbo whistle. BTW, from what I find the fan blade always wins.... just kidding. Looking forward to seeing the T out working this spring!
A few bugaboos to straighten out at first, but hey- no knocks right? This is awesome bub. I can't wait to see the old gal in the field working. I'm really happy for ya and it sounded oh so nice right at the end as you drove by the camera.
Awsome to see new life put in to an Oliver. Someday I’ll pull my Dads super 88 out and tear it apart, hasn’t ran all my lifetime but we kept it because Dad drove it home from the dealership when he was kid.
👍👍 this has been such a fun rebuild to watch. You had a lot of things going on through this but have done a very good job. Thank you and keep it up, sure look forward to seeing you and her in the field.
Nice job Ethan, as meticulous as you are, things can still go wrong. I always hold my breath on first fire up of a fresh build. Very nerve-wracking for me. Sure happy all went well for you. happy days! joe
I have a question about your 1950T, specifically about the front tires. I'm was wondering what size are they and do you like the 4 rib tread. I have a 66 1750 that I just bought a couple months ago. it was my dad's favorite back on the farm I grew up on, that being said the farm was actioned off in 92 and it still has the tires on it that my dad put on the tractor brand new when I was like 9. so the tires are pretty much wasted and need replaced
Awesome, looking forward to seeing it in the field. As much as I love a newly painted Oliver tractor this tractors patina is great. It sounds great especially the whine of the turbo. My version of a deluxe seat for my 88 super diesel hard pan seat back in the day was Olivers 2" cushion. LOL Great job.
I enjoy watching your informative videos! Question for ya: I am overhauling my row crop 60. When checking my ring gap, the manual says ".007 to .017" and I am getting .085 thousands. I have found finding new sleeves to be extremely hard. I have spoken to KORVES, Vic and his son told me that if I was not going to use it much then I could put it back together. I would like to know your opinion on what to do. Thank you for your time. J.D Claypool
The previous owner of my 1650 "painted" the clover white, bone white. I repainted all the white parts this winter. Looks much better now. Engine was just rebuilt. How can you tell when the engine is broken in?
Correct me if my thinking is wrong, and what the real difference was. I can remember that the difference between a 1850, 1950 and the model ending in T was the T was for fender fuel tanks 🤷♂️
@@Oliver66FarmBoy my dad had a 1855 I believe. Was the first new tractor he ever bought. I cultivated a lot of corn with it and a rear mount cultivater 🤦♂️
@@Oliver66FarmBoy That is a someday tractor. Comes after moneyday. It would be sweet seeing both pulling five bottoms. Maybe one with six on land plow. I assume you have heard the Detroit up close and personal. Sounds like a run away diesel. I think it is so awesome how Oliver engineered their tractors with a drop in motor design. I grew up working farms for college and drove a lot of the 1950, 1960 and 1907s various tractors. While Oliver brakes and steering not as good as some competitors, the overall design was kick ass. Not that too many believe me (4020 guys).
Tractor sounds great. Have you ever seen cast pan under the engine broke on an Oliver or white? It looks like a great design. Definitely makes it easier to pull an engine.
That was great. Sounds good, looks good and I'm looking forward to the videos of the dyno. I really enjoyed watching this process. She is looking great. Funny that the deluxe was cheaper. Before long, you're going to have it back to almost new. You will have a great tractor that will give years of service.
Good to see it’s going. Makes me want a T more and more. Also makes me want to rebuild the 1850 when I get back. Lol, I miss running a good 6 cylinder.
One more comment. Ethan thanks for keeping it real. You did not have to show that you had 2 lines switched or that the pump line seals leaked. You could have test ran it had everything perfect and acted like it was the first start. I am guessing you have some arm chair mechanics that don't even know which end of the wrench to use that will comment on that. They can go and watch some other channel, just my opinion. Thanks once again.

Oliver's looking really good.
I'm glad you got running again. I'm really enjoying the 1750 I brought a month ago
Well done Ethan. Great series.
It runs frickin sweet! Can't wait to see it in the fields. You'll hv to get the 1955 pump set up the same....
Good to hear and see the 1950T running again!👍
Thanks.
Yes . I agree with you on a good Machinist and balancing the rotating assembly. Is the way to go 👍😎
Yep
Awesome! So much to do to get ready for planting. Waiting now to see the new to you planter setup.
It’s a never ending process.
Thanks Ethan for taking us along on the rebuild, you sure have a lot of knowledge that you have learned over time.
Thanks.
Job well done brother that 310 sounds beautiful!
Glad the pump leak was an easy fix . The 1950 sounds great , well done !
There she be....back to her glory. Gonna look pretty badass with the planter on it.
Yep

I'm delighted to see and hear that successful end result for you. I bet you are mighty pleased as well!! The tractor sounds mighty sweet.
So far so good.

Seems like they could have come up with a better system to seal the fittings up.
@@Oliver66FarmBoy I never was a DB Roosa Master fan, I prefer Robert Bosch Inline pumps

Hard part is done.

Gawd......... that's a sweet sounding T. Great to see it back running. Thanks for the update Ethan. Take care. Fred.
Thanks for watching
That is a smooth snappy sounding engine! You will enjoy that for years!
Hopefully
Good deal on tractor, with that done and out of way you can focus on your other things so when it's go time your ready lol thanks for sharing i sure do enjoy your videos
Thanks.
Sounds great. It’ll be a badass set up on the planter
Gonna be good.
That's awesome! Fired right up. Makes me want to rebuild my 1750!
It’s worth it.
nice work bud! man that turbo whistle is something else. cant wait to see her in the field
Can’t beat a TO4
Thanks! I really enjoyed the series. Looks like it is ready for work.
Thanks.
Sounds dam good. I just pulled my 283 out of my 1655 rear main leaking.
That’s a good sounding tractor. Can’t wait to see it in the field. Thanks for the video
Thanks.
Good to hear things are working our good for u, got to love a turbo diesel tractor

Amazing how bad most ag engines are balanced from the factory.
Nice work....!!! Just as an FYI for your back pocket. Harleys use an aluminum washer with a rubber gland molded on the inner diameter for the brake master cylinders(come in both 10 and 12mm). Not sure how they'd work at injector pump pressures....
Saw multiple forum threads on that. They don’t work. To much pressure and diesel eats the rubber.

I can't wait to see that traktor put to work ❤️❤️❤️
👍👍 this has been such a fun rebuild to watch. You had a lot of things going on through this but have done a very good job. Thank you and keep it up, sure look forward to seeing you and her in the field.

Mmm that 310 sounds so good, and add in that turbo whistle gets me all giddy. Can't wait till spring tillage so I can play with my 9600 Ford.
Something about a TO4 hair dryer.
@@Oliver66FarmBoy hell yeah. Specially when the pumps a lil hot.
The old fella sounds good you are sure a good mechanic
Thanks.
Looking forward to all that good stuff
That tractor sounds great Ethan. Thumbs up
Thanks.
Big crowd in the garage 😄, but she sounds awesome rolling coal again 🤙🏾🤙🏾
Yep
Serious ! I've been waiting for this start !
You and your father are rock star's !
She is going to plant some serious !
It was a long weekend !
Next time don't make us wait so dam long !
😁👍🦌

She’s a tank.
Great to see it running! Also glad you didn’t paint it, she looks good as is!
Thanks.

My version of a deluxe seat for my 88 super diesel hard pan seat back in the day was Olivers 2" cushion. LOL Great job.
They made a deluxe pan seat to. It had a back rest. It’s rare to find an original one.
@@Oliver66FarmBoy Never knew that or seen one. Always had to stand up when it got uncomfortable. Can't do that on all the cab tractors.

Engine was just rebuilt.
How can you tell when the engine is broken in?
I have to repaint the white on this when I do new tires.
It's a bummer that the IP has to come off when the #6 banjo bolt seal is leaking. Do you have any videos showing removal of the IP?
Damn that bad boy damn near sounds as good as a ih 1206
Sounds good!What is your opinion on the machine work now?
Correct me if my thinking is wrong, and what the real difference was.
I can remember that the difference between a 1850, 1950 and the model ending in T was the T was for fender fuel tanks 🤷♂️
The 1850 had a 92 horse perkins. The 1950 had 105 horse Detroit and the 1950T had a 108 horse Waukesha.

nice job tractor sounds great!
Thanks.
Did you refuel the tank on your tractor ?😢 I hope you did🚜
Nice to that tractor back on her feet.
She deserved some love.
Sounds like she's rarin Farm Boy!! Doin a little field work here but calling for rain next 3 days.
Not much going on here.
What was the reasoning for the double air filters? Other than the obvious air filtration. That is going to make a good planting tractor.
To feed the turbo and use parts common with the smaller tractors.
Great job she sounds good
Thanks.
Sweet!
Way to go, smooth....
Thanks.
Good job Ethan!!!
Thanks.
Sounds good!!! Now you need a Gm 1950 for a matched set. Lol. Bet it gives your 1955 a run for her money.
I want one.

Standing on her hind feet chomping at the bit!
Yep
she runs goooodd!!
Glad thinks keep goin good for u

Oliver used dual air intakes because they said the turbo liked air. What changed that they finally went to a single air intake
A bigger air cleaner.
Tractor sounds great.
Have you ever seen cast pan under the engine broke on an Oliver or white? It looks like a great design. Definitely makes it easier to pull an engine.

It was worth it.
Pardon my ignorance as I’ve never rebuilt an engine, but how do you tell if the rings are set? Or do you not know?
It stops burning oil and makes rated horsepower.
Are you going to retorque the head bolts and run the overhead on that motor after you run it a while?
Don’t have to. It’s got a steel head gasket now.
Good to see it’s going. Makes me want a T more and more. Also makes me want to rebuild the 1850 when I get back. Lol, I miss running a good 6 cylinder.
Better Oder parts now. Perkins stuff is hard to get.
@@Oliver66FarmBoy Good to know.
Sounds nice
Thanks.
Awesome!!
It sounds really nice, tight and strong.
Nice job!
Thanks.
Break it in hard it will run hard
Check out senco seals. they make them out of copper and stainless or steel
Damn, that thing sounds sexy.
For sure.
Which crush washer ended up working on the pump and where do you get them?
We had them.
One more comment. Ethan thanks for keeping it real. You did not have to show that you had 2 lines switched or that the pump line seals leaked.
