Ford 7810 - Ruscon 3000g tanker

- So the original plan was hire out that 2000 gallon hi spec tanker that we had before but it had a problem with it so the only other available tanker was this 3000 gallon Ruscon. I thought "ahhh the Ford will pull that". It managed it away ok but I says to myself I'll give it a helping hand anyway. 13mm spanner and a screwdriver, 2 turns, holy christ there's power in it now 🤣 Now, the engine is on the way out anyway, so I thought I might as well get the most out of it while it's still running.
It went porous about 7 or 8 years ago, was bored and sleeved and running really well since. It got hot on the JF last year because the radiator was a bit damaged. So when I got back from New Zealand this year I put a new head gasket into it, got the radiator refurbished and extended from 4 tubes deep to 5 tubes and put a special type of louvered fin into it to keep it cool if I wanted to take more power out of it. I made another attempt at fixing the original temperature gauge but also fitted an aftermarket good quality temperature gauge at the same time. The original one still didn't work after I put it all back together :( And it was still mixing oil and water.
The only two problems I can see it being is the oil cooler is rotton, which it isn't because the rad was just opened and checked. The other option, porous, again. I'm told it's gone either on the liner if they used thin liners in the rebuild or on the camshaft where they all go. I could rebuild it again if it's gone on the sleeve but how long then until it goes on the camshaft? I think I'll just stick a 7.5 powerstar in it next year. Job done. Fix the original 6.6 in my own time then. I see you can get them drilled, tapped and plugged if it's gone on the camshaft. Not worrying about it now anyway. It will work for the time being, there's good compression and oil pressure in it still and now it doesn't get hot on pto work either.
That's about it though. Lots of work still to do on this tractor, the cab, the stainless pipework under the bonnet, chassis respray, just general tidying up. Will be some yoke when it all gets done. In all fairness though, I think it's time to give the 7810 a "bigger brother" you could say. They were never intended to pull 3000 gallon tankers and bale with a modern baler like I use my one to do. I have an idea of the tractor I'm after, it's between 2 or 3 yokes, all of them big old school bruisers. It'll be next spring before anything lands but still, watch this space :)
I wonder do many people actually read my big long scrolls of descriptions.....ach I don't mind writing them so what does it matter. This whole youtube thing was only for my own entertainment anyway 😝 Beats talking shite on the video, can do it here in the description instead 😅.
Anyway! The tanker! 3000 gallon tandem. Mighty job....on dry ground....got buried on the first load 🙄 Made pure shit of the field. One of those Claas tractors you can see had to come drag me half way round the field before eventually getting out. Digger job to go fix the field now. Fuck. Moved onto drier ground next and it travelled away fine. Once it got going you're not long shifting stuff even on the longer draws. Bad roads make the draw slow though and the the tanker loves bouncing on them too. I wouldn't even think a heavier tractor would stop it from bouncing. Just crap roads.
Ruscon engineering made the tanker anyway, they were from up round Meath or Westmeath someplace I think. Woodmill was the name of the place. They closed down maybe 10 plus years ago now I'd say. You can go look at the old factory on google maps street view (on a laptop), it's a bit sad looking now. If you scroll back the years on street view you can see the factory still half functional firing out the last few trailers and things I'd say. Got sold on and rebadged agrimac as far as I know but I'm not even sure if agrimac is still going.
Either way, this tanker here is a 2008 build, is on 550/60R22.5 tyres, non steering axles, 13000l pump by the looks, sprung drawbar, fully rewired and led lights all around, very nicely done up I must say. It usually has a proper wide angle pto on it with a gaurd as well but it was too long to use with this tractor so I just threw that pto on it that was lying around. Yes, yes, I know, gaurd and all that but look, I just hooked on the pipe and switched the valve to fill before switching it on and I'm out of harm's way. Don't have to go remotely near it when you use it that way. Go look up Russian lathe accident. Yeah...that'll humble you not to mess with spinning things under power 😬 Graphic stuff... Other than that I was happy to get to use it with the Ford anyway. Some outfit.
Be another while before I get decent videos of the new (to me) baler and wrapper after all the rain that fell recently. Zero drone footage this year too, when the weather is good I just end up being too busy to fly it. Anyway, my word count is nearly running out for the description so I'll stop it there 😅 - ยานยนต์และพาหนะ

Great video as always I love your pov vids and you can’t beat the sound of that ford keep her lit 🔥 looking forward to the next video
Fghvhkhjjh
Ford tractors the Best
Tbf lad your descriptions are fucking hilarious
You’ve some amount of plant bought in the last while with t baler and jf and all
Would u do a machine tour 😉
Ach, I'm just giving a bit of backround that's all 😅. I wouldn't really do a machinery tour, it wouldn't be my type of thing to go down the line of farm/contractor vlogger like gerry6420 or mr.cvx. I'm actually a quiet enough fella myself, although I'm sure it doesn't come across that way.
Maybe in a few years if I've a rake of stuff I'll do a tour but at the minute I've only the one tractor, the ford, the jf, few trailers as in the description of the previous video, baler, wrapper, lely rotonde, krone tedder (in bits at the minute, main gearbox missing a few pearly whites) and a lely 600 tedder I bought in a rush to keep me going. That's it really, the rest of the gear is the home farm's. Renault, zetor, 7ft mower and few other bits like bale handlers, roller, fert spreader and an ex60-2 hitachi.
That's it really. It'll all be featured here eventually, the baler and wrapper should be up within the next few weeks. We're still missing a tanker and I'll be wanting a second tractor for myself soon too so plenty fresh stuff to video in the future. It's been a nuisance this year to be borrowing my Dad's zetor to wrap and rake this year. He wants it when I want it and who's diesel are we burning and all that. New Zealand round two is probably going ahead as well so there's that as well. That's the story now though....all said 🙂
That sounds fantastic, like a proper tractor should! Unlike my massey 5713sl
Thanks. A 5713 is a nice tractor too, I like those newer masseys.
ਬਹੁਤ ਵਧੀਅਾ Very Nice
She done well pulling the tanker, poor old lass.
And yeah, I do read you gobbing off in the comments😉
So....drop a Cummins in it😁
Haha 😂 would love to stick a 6bt into it alright but you'd need to make a chassis and bellhousing adapter plates and machine flywheels and worry about getting everything running true and lined up. 7.5L powerstar bolts straight in luckily enough, they kept the same bolt pattern when they moved to the newer type engines. Plenty of 10 series around with the conversion already done so shouldn't be too hard hopefully.
@@WayneMescal
Yeah but all the effort is worth it😆
You're right about dropping in the PowerStar. Keeps things simpler.
That's 1 advantage industrial engines have over consumers engines, alot of the bellhousings being SAE spec.
Good luck on the conversion. Remember loud pipes saves lives so straight pipe it🙉🤘🏻
@@R.Sole88109 yeah I saw those alright, a shame everything isn't standardised like that. Be a lot of crazy stuff made if it was that easy.
❤❤❤
Ever think of putting an 8630 engine into it, seeing as it just bolts in, one next to me with one, or would an 8340 engine be a better engine cause it’s newer and would handle relatively the same power?
An 8630 engine can go porous too. Might as well go for the more reliable 7.5 litre engine while I am going changing. Do it right do it once. Can get one from a 60 series or tm too. Not the last of the tm's though, they used self adjusting hydraulic tappets and weren't as reliable. I'd buy a tm150 over a tm155 if I was buying a tm.
How much work is it to put the 40 series engine into it?Love the description most I’ve read in years 😂
Haha thanks 😅 well i was hoping to put a 60 series or tm engine into it really, something a bit newer than a 40 series engine. Yeah as far as I know it's easy enough, swap over a few things like the sump and flywheel to new engine, plumb it up and it should be a runner. Tachometer causes issues as the old engine has a sensor on the back of the injector pump and the new engine is done off the alternator so will have to figure something out there, but people have done this many times before so help and knowledge should be available when I enevatibly run into problems.
@@WayneMescal Would you got for like a reasonable engine like Tm120 keep her as close as possible to standard or go bigger like Tm155 and have her able to keep her own on the 3000gallon tanker?😂Also depends what you can get your hands on aswell a good engine won’t be an easy find
cool camera angle
Right....
Nice outfit
What horsepower is she putting out after the 2 turns? 😅
Stupid power 😂 I don't know but it must be up round 130 with the turbo. Will dyno it if a dyno comes to a tractor run locally.
@@WayneMescal let know if you do get her dynoed then😂😂. Keep the videos coming
@@_MDAgriVideos_ would probably take a video of it being dynoed anyway, will do, thanks
what baler have you on it
