Wildlife is def. something else Down Under! Hillarious Fishcam..
Didn't see that coming 😂
Machine still sound good, that's the very important part of any vehicle
Very good battery you brought... I had visions of it dieing...
A triumph ! Well done! Would like to see her doing some chores. From South Africa.
I am absolutely amazed by your understanding of diesels.
I know they are relatively simple but to walk into the brush and get a machine running is a skill.
Hats off.
It’s pretty easy.
@@thegoodguy44 Everything becomes easy after you learn how to do it.
Amazing! Well done in reviving that classic tractor! Greetings from Madang, Papua New Guinea!
Your wife's a lucky lady to have access to all these tractors. Having a live in mechanic is a bonus too. 🤭 Good work Marty, enjoyed that. 👍🏻
She’s spoiled for choice really. The trouble is deciding which tractor to use for a given task.
I think he is going to paint the rest of it pink and give it to the wife for mothers day lol
Now if I could only convince my wife that having lots of tractors was a good thing :)
@@morantaylor Years ago, in a Farming Simulator 13 forum, a guy who was playing FS13 with his daughter posted that she wanted a pink tractor. So I reskinned a Massey 6290 so it was pink and linked it to them.
@@morantaylor 🤣🤣🤣
Awesome videos Marty T tractor sitting there long time you know what you doing clean up everything top to bottom air filter battery hope she turns over move own power bless you my friend over in Australia down under
Wish these old machines could talk.
Story would be epic and sad.
Waiting for your people to come back for you as the days become months. Then years then decades...
Watching from Arizona. Love seeing someone talented at a trade. Great video!
Lovely video. My dad has an International 474 which is maybe 10 years younger than this one. Dad is a retired farmer and has dementia, he can't walk unaided anymore, but I helped him get it running a couple of weeks ago after the winter, just needed a new battery. They really are little warriors, they never break. The look on dad's face when it fired up again, sheer glee. It was gifted to dad 20 years ago in the will of a friend of his. The friend was also a retired framer, older than dad, but he had been a WW2 fighter pilot (a group captain none-the-less) and had a farm in Africa after the war. When he moved back to the UK he bought this tractor for his UK farm and then left it to dad when he died. Dad used to rent extra fields from him for sheep and they got to know each other that way. When he was in his last couple of years I would go round to see him as a teenager and show him how to use a computer to write letters and things and he'd tell me stories from the war. Amazing how an old tractor can link you to people and events.
My grandparents have Nuffield 4/65.. the damn thing has gone trough hell and back... then demanded more and its still running and working even though it should have broken down decades ago, but it still keeps on going. 3rd lift link is holding on its dear life.. i dont know how it has not failed since there is no longer treads or really a shaft left.. the bolt is jammed 45 degree on its place and that is only thing holding it in place, while its still enough to lift more than front ends weight. Given it has been like that 20 years... yeah. I'm about to fix that soon enough... but pretty sure grandparents thought the same thing... Well these things are prime movers and never should be scrapped. If its utterly destroyed then sell it as parts not scrap!
Only really wrong with ours is shifter sometimes slips past the lugs in transmission putting it into middle lock state requiring "gentle violence" or taking the transmission cover off and back again. Chore and i'm looking solution for that, just dont want to mess anything up. Restore and maintain these beasts since they build the world and will continue to maintain it, unlike likes of Deere that absolutely hates right to repair, making it hard as possible.
That is Awesome nyou actually got it running after all that time.
Hey Marty. Greetings from the Adirondack Mountains in northern New York, USA. I love joining you in your mechanical adventures via TH-cam. You have got a terrific storey telling manner in addition to your automotive - mechanical expertise! Thank you for bringing the rest of us along. It is both enjoyable and appreciated!👍
I just got onto this channel & im mesmerised
The eels are friendly caused the farmer probably feed them for years.
The tractor is really a nice deal. YOU were real lucky with an old machine. Most of the time is is beyond a quick and easy fix. I would bet the original owner really took care of the machine, PERIOD !!!!!! Nice video too Sir.
Way back in 88, 89, 90 ,,,, I worked in a tire shop where the farmers in the area would bring in flat tractor tires for me to fix. Didnt mind it so much until winter . They would bring em in frozen ,,, I would have to wait half a day for them to thaw out . A real pain in the ass operation. Thanks man.
"Where are you going today husband"? "Definitely not picking up another tractor 🚜😂
heheh beat me to it
That made me laugh out loud. Thanks.😊
Decent size eels good feed
😂
She didin’t know that married 100 vintage rusty tractors back then. 😅
Excellent video, as always 👍
Why am I so fascinated buy a dude in NZ fixing/salvaging old tractors 🤷♀️ these videos are awesome 😎
i could hardly pull a pop up camper with my Nissan frontier so i sold it and here you are towing a tractor with one. Very impressive.
Hey Marty, FYI for trouble shooting purposes, the glow plugs are run in series, so a bad connection anywhere will kill the circuit. There is a glow plug indicator (heating element) to the left of the steering column. It is also part of the circuit. Mine likes its glow plugs for the first start of the day. Without them it won't start without the joy juice. There's also a filter for the hydraulic oil inside the system. It's under the big heavy differential cover under the seat. Cheers!
@@Islandwaterjet You're very welcome. The one in the dash absolutely needs to stay in the circuit as well. If you bypass it and go straight to the plugs they will see too much voltage and you'll burn them out. Ask me how I know :-)
@@Islandwaterjet The good old pepper pot glow indicator/ballast resistor. Some European tractors (Steyr T80 and T84) didn't have a cover with little holes, just one round hole in the dash, the perfect size for lighting a cigarette 😀
Hey Robin, I don't think that is correct. That would mean each glowplug would have to have 2 connections. 1 in 1 out to the next, I've only ever seen a common power rail with the body of the glowplug being the earth. Could be wrong.....wouldn't be the first time
@@duanescott5399 Look carefully, the wires going from one glow plug to the next one are not in contact, there is an insulator between them, and the whole circuit is isolated from the engine.
@@RobinWilkinson I made the very smart mistake of removing one on my 444 and testing it on a 12v battery with a pair of wires to each contact, needless to say I won't do that again after watching it glow white and melt instantly🙃
You'll see that rust in ireland and worse,Brilliant Videos your making.
I am amazed that you can get these old tractors to run. Well done Marty, your a clever man!
It’s just like the International tractor we had on our farm here in Tassie in the ‘70s! Some of my earliest and happiest memories are riding around on my grandfather’s lap on that thing!
The will it start videos are the best! How many tractors have you breathed new life into now, Marty?
I've lost count, must be at least 8
Damn man i can't believe you are watching a Kiwi bloke find and repair old abandoned heavy equipment lol. Im looking forwards to some updates on your channel. I hope you and Yuka had a great time in Australia
BCpov.... The wife been told only 4 tractors in our possession. 😄
Class back in session, bloody good one Marty!
@@MartyT after 10 you can start calling yourself tractor doctor.
You've got a touch of the ole mechanical genius in you, my friend. We very much enjoy your content here stateside in Virginia, USA.
I grew up driving a B414! My cousin had one. This brings back memories of 60-some years ago! Oh, I'm in ON Canada.
What a charming little video! Supplies in the back of the truck, off to the site, right to work, getting the job done I could watch these videos all day long. And feeding the eels was an absolute bonus! Cheers.
I’m pleased to see someone being bloody careful about asbestos, other people I’ve watched coming across asbestos aren’t . Asbestos is deadly
Just do not eat it or break it
Indeed. I think I would have been inclined to soak it with water first and wear a decent mask to remove that. He pretty much had to break it up to get it out. It's amazing how common asbestos was and how little information about the hazard was around in the 1960s and 70s. I helped a friend demolish and break up an asbestos garage in about 1975 - we didn't know any better.
I knew 5 people with asbestosis and all were dead in 5 years heart lung failure.
@@JefferyAshmore I have recently found out that there are still lots of roofs with asbestos "slates" and apparently, when repairing than they put new asbestos slates to replace any broken ones.
Land of the kiwi. Big aggressive eels and cabbage trees.
Hi from Canada.
What a fun watch, thanks for taking us along!! Cheers!
My old 2n sat for three very wet months once and the clutch rusted so tight we could not get it to break free by any means. Glad yours came free without too much fuss. Had to split mine. Nice job saving another machine!
My clutch was stuck and I put a block of wood on top of the pedal and let it sit heating the shed it was in and then letting it freeze a few times over the course of a few months. Eventually it popped - I tried doing what Marty did but it didn't work. Anything is better than splitting the tractor!
Great video, these old tractors could last forever with a bit of looking after
I knew it was a 414. Used to help out on a farm here in sunny Yorkshire many many moons ago and the farm had one.
That air cleaner was greasy but no rust. Just that forethought of a can on the exhaust made all the difference.
Your skill is amazing in breathing life back in old iron.
Great job! I love these old machines. They are so much better than what is being produced today. I'm glad to see you saving them.
That tractor was probably made in Doncaster, Yorkshire where the International factory was during the 60s/70s that I know of. It was a massive place, I had to go there about 1977/8 when I worked for an agricultural engineering firm in Durham City. For me it's great to see these old tractors being brought back to life. I watch your videos Marty thank you for doing what you do. They could stand for years like that one and still come back to life.
The early IH B series 250, 276, 414, 434 etc were made in Bradford (B for Bradford).
Did you work for Paxtons?
@@originalforgery yes I did work for Paxtons, from 1970 at 15 years old to 1979. Did you know anyone who worked at the same time?
@@kenhart6330 Allis Chalmers became another massive name globally starting in Canada not sure if ever associated with International during this time tho. Great Tractors all this era.
Did they make Nuffield tractors there as well? I think I read that somewhere.
This reminds me of the look of a Nuffield I used to drive for light work on my father's farm in the late 1970s and early 1980s. We lived not too far from Doncaster near York.
I work for paxtons now! Haha
Honestly did not expect 24:17 view, that surprised me. So much work has been put into this video!
Being over 40 I can relate. I learned to drive on ursus 330, basically the same machine. I love them 😊
Parts manual says it is asbestos. I had an A414 and I removed it too. Luckily mine was pretty intact with years and oil soaked into it.
Also you need atleast 10 seconds on the glow plug to have a hope of it starting, they are wired in series too so if you lose one you lose them all.
For years i had a 1953 international B275 diesel tractor. A real workhorse but parts were hard to come by. The primary fuel pump was operated by a manual pump to bleed out the fuel filter. Miwed the hilly fields of Thetford VT fir msny years.
And your wife says another tractor really lol!! Love it when you can save the old iron!! Stay safe!!
How Marty finds a piece of junk and then makes it crawl out of the brush under its own power is incredible every time. Truly the engine whisperer!
Perhaps... instead assume the base line is the equipment will run. Is that so amazing?
@@ShainAndrews More like Marty has a good idea how to work a tired, neglected engine.He has skills, as he has proved on many occasion.
If you have amassed a knowledge of engines/machinery this isn't really that difficult. Especially if it was parked and left, not broken and left. Being covered Is a big win too. Diesels are especially happy to sit for decades, since the fuel is oil they are far less likely to rust and size internally. A gas engine, especially one that wouldn't run right and got a bunch of raw fuel or worse starting fluid dumped down it's yap then left for dead with washed clean cylinder walls rusted solid is no fun. Plus the diesel fuel itself doesn't go really bad. Fungus growth does happen sometimes but it's not as bad as dried up gas. Not saying everyone can do this but it's not rocket surgery 😂
To be completely fair old diesels don't take a hell of a lot to get going and can sit for 50 years without issue. Still awesome but not the same as getting a modern engine going.
That's English engineering for you, Makes me proud.
Surprised it didn't set on fire :D.
Always a treat to see you rescue something from the weeds...Underwater filming a real bonus...Hope they didn't eat all your lunch...
For a second I thought you fed the asbestos to the eels😂. Good catch on that though. Don’t need one of my favorite TH-camrs catching mesothelioma
I had a 444 and the glow plugs were a must for first start without juice. Good job Marty, Cheers from USA.😃
You never go wrong with Perkins diesel motor, very reliable and stable. We had two IH, one from GB and one from Germany, and the GB had Perkins motor was the best and most reliable. The german had IH own motor. Thank you for sharing your videos. God bless you and your family.
I love watching old iron come to life. Nice recovery. Just wish they would make tractors like that today.
As a bodyman of 31yrs I don’t know a lot about engines so I’m always amazed how your able to get these engines running. Knowing how each component functions seems to be most important to be able to correct them. You do great work Marty👍🙂
Well I think engineers feel the same way about making rust „disappear“.
Bodyman what is that ? You have body of a man.!! 😬
He does a great job but it's also a testament to how they made this old iron. They used high quality parts.
If you want to learn old diesels is the easiest path. They are incredibly simple with few parts prone to failure. Everything is mechanical. Most will fire up with very little effort if it will spin freely. Especially if you have ether
Sweet! Nice find, I enjoy your channel immensely here in the States, Thanks Marty
MARTY IS THERE ANYTHING YOU CAN'T FIX IT'S AMAZING WATCHING YOU WHERE DID LEARN HOW TO FIX EVERY I WOULD NEVER BET MONEY THAT YOU COULDN'T FIX IT NO MATTER WHAT IT IS
HOPE YOUR LAD STARTS DOING SAME THING IN 10 YEARS😊😊😊
My family has a international identical to the one Marty got running it’s still in good shape and running. I’m from au
Is it actually an A414? (A means Australian made; B means British made....?)
Excellent Sunday Night watch while the weather outdoors tonight here in Kumeu is fairly wild & wet! Thanks Marty.
Used to own an identical tractor....great we tractor.....ours did well over 10000 hrs
Bravo - from Poland to You Marty. You are The Grait
Them Eels are fighting over camera time. They know this is a Marty T video my man.
Love the eels when I was a kid love catching them in our local stream great memories
I havent watched in a while. I am always amazed there arent a ton of dangerous poisonous things living in these machine.
You fellas stay strong out there. Remember you got brothers here in the USA trying to look out. Well done.
What about those eels though! Massive. Always a pleasure to watch you load another resurrected vehicle onto your restored trailer.
Este tractor lo usábamos para transportar aceitunas, casi siempre tiraba de un remolque excesivamente cargado para un tractor tan modesto pero extraordinariamente fiable, nunca nos dejó tirados. Gracias por traernos tan gratos recuerdos.
Awesome video Marty, have you seen the " will it run after 72 years 1930 Ford model aa doodle bug " video, its right up your alley.
the way to clean those screen filters if they are all metal is to set them on fire let them burn themselves out let them cool and then just tap them aaginst some thing and the dust will fall!
Revival AND wildlife. Real bonus. Many thanks from the UK.
Nice video and nice to see it was able to run after getting some time to warm up.
I have a B414 and it's a great tractor.
That PINK firewall made all the difference. Little bit of lipstick woke the old girl up. Great job. Thanks for taking us along. Loved the aerial shot.
This was impressive. Just came across this channel and i shall be binge watching this afternoon/evenings. Sending positive vibes from the uk.
I drove one of those 50 odd years ago and still remember the sound. Think there was a glow plug coil thing in that hole above the lever that glowed red when ready. Really enjoyed your recovery of this and getting it driving out bro. Safe travels
Those old international engines never died but they needed 30 seconds of glow plugs in middle of summer half the time lol
Lovely job on the old beast, and thanks for showing folks the proper way of dealing with the asbestos. I've neve seen it on a tractor firewall before. Too many people laugh about it and treat it lightly, and yes, most of the serious cases were from asbestos workers (like the poor men installing the asbestos sheets in the factory) but why take a chance? The latency period can be 25 or 30 years, and who wants to find out they've got to lose a lung right when they've got grandchildren to enjoy! As an old hazmat and safety officer, I appreciate all of the good work practices you model for the community. It means a lot, mate! 👍
Not to nitpick but he filmed himself committing a criminal act. In NZ any amount of friable asbestos must be removed by a class a licensed removalist.
Regardless he wasn't masked and contaminated the area around the tractor by washing it off with water. Not that it's likely to happen but he's made himself liable for a hefty fine and possible incarceration.
l had a chance to buy a B414 when l was looking for a second tractor but l was wanting a row crop instead of utility. they have alot of features for a tractor that size Over here in the US the 300 utility was common!!!!! l will be watchin!!!!
The methodical way you brought it back to life - and the engine sounded sweet for something that hadn't run for 20 years.
My father was apprenticed to the International Harvester Company in 1947 and used to service machinery like this in rural South Australia. He used to tell me stories about such things. I loved your video.
I grew up in the country. While I never had regular chores I often helped my father deliver firewood with a tractor and trailer. I appreciate your step by step, careful revival of this great old machine. Blessings and good fortune to you.
I use a propane torch in a way that allows the hot air from the flame to be sucked into the intake manifold; starts a cold diesel right up.
Think the wife will notice another old red tractor ? I'll bet not they pretty much look the same and sound it too!! Best to you and fam!! And thanks for the time you take to make these!!
26:27 you can use the amp clamp feature for the glow plugs. It is really handy when you are trying to improve the circuit situation.
I have the exact same model sitting on my property in Bloomsbury, Queensland.
Marty next time you have issues with glow plugs boil a kettle of water and pour the water over the fuel lines going into the injector's intern pre heating the fuel. Its an old Aussie bush trick
It even works on modern diesel fuel rails when you have faulty glow plugs.😎
That makes sense, nice trick
Or try a LPG / Mapp gas burner straight into the intake (heat the air).
12:20 air cleaner oil: some soviet tractors’ manuals say explicitly used engine oil, just a fun fact
Another great find Marty will make a great repair project thanks for sharing 🦘
Tune in next week when Marty gives that tractor the full spa treatment.
Marty T does difficult things. The impossible takes a little longer. Stay safe
That tin on top of it probably saved it! Hats off to you for getting it going!
This video really made my day because my dad has the exact tractor, an International B414 diesel '65 model I believe. It runs really well but there are so many things to fix. I'll restore whatever I can and make it more usable than it is now. All gauges don't work, glowplug system doesn't work, no lights etc. However it drives remarkably good.
Hope the clutch dont start shedding parts😮 wow. Great. She deserves a resto. Dandahermit. I cant believe the tires stood up. My Case 831 has both rear rims rotted out n rubber sho 😢
Marty - thousands of tractor experts I know on TH-cam - I’ve got a couple of internationals, so my tips for starting are always full throttle to start, and a little squirt of magic juice from the ether can always helps. Glow plug circuits unreliable, but a couple of people have suggested using bmw glow plugs (I haven’t bothered). That starter solenoid thing very easy to get as well. Pretty impressed with your find - maybe even a touch jealous. My brother recently took one of these tractors out of the bowels of a paddle wheeler - they are a fantastic old beast. Can’t wait to see it doing something useful. 😊
Man, it doesn’t smoke! Crazy!!
I think those tractors were built around 1967. I can remember sitting on one when I was a kid at Hereford market tractor dealer stall . heaters go through a resistance that takes it down to five volt, putt 12 on it will blow the glowplugs. There are upgrade kits available
The tractor wiki says they were built from 1961-1966, so your recollection is probably correct. I didn't know these existed as I don't recall ever seeing one of these in my part of Canada.. And now looking on my classifieds site I see one for sale in my county. The more you know..
These are great Videos Marty! always something new to learn...and properly :) keep them coming!!
Marty, your "resurrection" videos are my favorite. I love it when you drive them out of their grave.
That tractor came out of the woods looking like an old soldier that was still holding his watch since ww2 and no one told him the war was over!! Good stuff sir!
That clutch trick was clever. Don't think I'd have thought that one up if it were me in your shoes.
Great tips and work you have done.
That is amazing. We had a 434 IH arrive at work two weeks ago. Runs well but gearbox full of water because shift selector covers gone.
You have managed to breathe life back into another forgotten relic. That's fantastic Marty. 👊🦊👍
International B414 Diesel. I have the same model but it’s gas not diesel. Mine has a loader but it’s engine has seen better days. These machines were made in Britain between 1961 and 1967 and were replaced by the 434 and later by the 444.🇨🇦
It's getting to the point that you could almost open a tractor museum. Another great video. Thank you!
I learned something from watching the respect you paid to that asbestos! Nothing to fool around with. Bravo!
I am from India and I have seen this tractors as a kid. Nowadays not seen as earlier they were so common. Restore it to it's former glory.
Greeting from India.
