    My father in law would have loved watching you he was a retired md state trooper and his hobby was restoring old farm tractors and he grew up on a farm he was a great man and a great friend he would go out of his way to help anyone who needed it including me I surely miss him but watching your show makes me think of him so keep up the good work thank you😊

    “I also think I’m gonna need to turn it left.” Classic Pete funny moment. Made me chuckle out loud, especially thinking of how many times I’ve done the same thing.

    Pete I'm no expert but I'd be willing to bet that you're the first person to go that deep into that tractor since it was assembled. I'd love to see a group photo of the guys that put it together! Love watching your videos, whether its animals or tractors! Thank you for what you do!!

      Pete must feel like a tractor archeologist, some of those bolts haven't been touched by human hands since it was assembled in the factory. He honors the good folks who built it with his careful work.

      Thanks for sharing. I know I could take the tractor apart but not put it back together again.😊

    The great thing about these restoration videos is that they become an archive for this model tractor. Anyone who owns this can come here and learn all the nuts and bolts, reference part locations and just general information for this platform. This is a great service you are doing. Thanks Pete

    Every time you do a restoration video; I say that it’s the best ever; this one is going to be more fun than ever. I also love the farming videos too; actually you haven’t made a video yet that I didn’t enjoy watching. Happy new year Pete and family.

    I recently sold a farmall 460 that needed some hydraulic work done to someone. He asked me about how to videos on repairs, I with no hesitation recommended your channel. I have yet to find someone who explains the process more thoroughly than you

    I had to stop watch it many times. I couldn´t ear that poor tractor crying as it was slowly dying, piece removal one after an other. Stop ! Stop Pete ! It said. Wasn´t a good tractor for you all these years ? Didn´t i always carry chores you ask me ? Didn´t i always carry you wherever you wanted to ?
    Poor guy. It doesn´t know that when it will ressucite from ER, it will be almost a brand new kid. Good gor an other 40 years ?
    Of course it doesn´t know. But it will. Oh ya it will !!
    Thanks Pete. Always hearthwarming to see you working hard to bring back youth to a machine.

We even had couple in the bathroom, 15 in the living room 20 in the dining room 4-5 hundred in the (clock room) and 15 chimed 15 min.

    Hi Pete. As much as I love the animals and general farm work, I sure do love to see some good old fashioned work on machinery going on. I really enjoy these series when you do them. THanks for sharing with us.
    On a side note, you know how one can tell when a 3 year old's grandpa is a subscriber or loyal watcher of Just a Few Acres Farm? Well, very quick short story. So I am sitting at my kitchen table enjoying a cup of coffee when out of the blue I hear "Come on cows... Come on!" . I was like uhh what? Then he said it again! ha ha!!! I heard a stampede in my house of our 3 dogs coming full steam to him. I turn and look in full laughter and he has a handful of dog food hand feeding them like they are treats. I sat there and laughed and laughed and laughed. Come on cows ...... I absolutely loved it! I watch a load of farm channels (as well as other general channels) and not a once has he ever quoted a content creator. I was kind of tickled that he chose Pete. I always said this is good old fashioned content the entire family can get in on in some fashion or the other. I think I found his passion for Just a few acres Farm; Pete and calling his cows!
    Take care all and stay warm!

    Last year I changed the air filter in my riding lawn mower and thought it was a genius move...then I watch Pete take apart a tractor and I wonder "how on earth does he keep track of all those bolts, wires and parts" It fascinates me. almost like watching someone throw a 5000 piece puzzle in the air and then put it back together again...facinating!!! I love it!

    Pete I love your tractor restoration videos and I love how your mechanic skills have changed from only using hand tools to using a impact.I also have noticed you talk more now than you do in your older videos. I however do miss the multiple dad joke videos my wife dies laughing onevery one of them.

    I am not what you would call any sort of expert at anything but I have messed with all sorts of stuff. I am at 10 minutes and I have seen no stripped heads or threads or frustated swearing.
    By now I would have either given up, not that I would have started, or burred a bolt head so bad drilling it out would be my next option.
    I have both admiration for people like Pete and envy that my brain won't absorb the technical know how to accomplish such tasks.

  • @blujeans9462

    Pete, as I sit on my lanai in FL, watching you work on a piece of equipment I have no knowledge of, I thought I'd give you some advice going forward. When dealing with fasteners, the vast majority of time remember, "lefty losy, right tighty" 😂😅 .
    I so enjoy your videos, regardless of content.
    Keep the dad jokes coming. They give my kids something groan about in the retelling.

    I just purchased an 856 Custom last year! My first tractor I personally owned. It's in pretty good shape, but has minor things I'd like to do. So excited you're doing a resto on an 856. :D One of my favorite channels already, now doing something I REALLY need the insight for! It's entertainment and it's educational. It's like PBS, but better. ;)

    Your show today reminded me of when I was ten or so; I used to go to the neighboring farm to do hay baling and odd jobs for the farmer, also named "Pete." He used to do the same thing you are doing to his tractors. I loved watching him fix his 4010s and 4020s. He even had a 9N that I mostly used. You always bring me good memories, and I thank you for that.

    Hi Pete/Hillary. I watch all of your videos as a new acreage/tractor owner (Allis Chalmers 5050). I am currently working through the earlier videos in order. I appreciate the knowledge that you demonstrate with these projects, but am not quite ready to start taking apart too much yet (getting things back together seems the real marvel). Thank you. All the best.

    I liked the sped up time-lapse recap at the end. Had an idea for short intro...a super quick pic of the animals and you saying "COWS", "PIGS", "CHICKENS" , "HILARY". Then you drive a tractor from the house to the shop (it hilarious cuz its like 20ft away....lol). Just so we know everything is A ok on the farm while we are absorbed with watching you teardown the 856. Love from Auburn

    @LukeLong-oi4uc 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

    You have quite the list there my friend. I’m certain it’ll grow considerably! Lol You fix things a lot like I do, we like things to work like they were originally intended, and we’ll go the extra mile to make sure that they do. I personally like that old girl. I bought a 1206 13 years ago to rebuild and use, but I needed money to make some annual payments on some new hay implements that I had purchased previously so I had to let it go to help cover those. The equipment making the money had to come before my dreams. Lol but I’m super partial to those tractors from the late 60s and early 70s, and I’d like to get a 966 one of these days. Great video and I’m looking forward to the education we’re going to receive watching your program. Thank you Sir!

  • @bills2972
    @bills2972 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Pete, if your engine is leaking at the back end, be sure and check gasket where rear adapter plate bolts to the back of engine block. There is a large gasket and oring at the rear camshaft journal that is under pressure when engine is running, drips off in the same place as rear main seal leak and often will leak cold and seal as engine warms. Also, If your thinking of doing the torgue amplifier, be sure one is available. Waited almost a month to get one this passed spring on my 986. If none is available from hicap check with abilene machine, they helped me get one from a different source. You mentioned the TA in an earlier video and I figured you have already checked on it but thought I would mention it anyway.
    Look forward the rest of the series as your videos are always well researched and thought out. Keep up the good work.

    You will really enjoy that tractor once it is done. We restored ours 10 years ago. New seat bushings and rubbers make the seat very nice. Starts easy with rebuilt injectors. They are great tractors with kept up maintenance. The 856s are my favorite.
