Dad started his farming career at age 14. Like most back then, he got one of those ex army satchel type bags. Metal tin lined with an old bread bag for his doorsteps, room at the side for flask and an apple, anything extra like bottle of squash during harvest was carried. He finally retired 2...

There is footage on Ingles Facebook page of your tractor on a baler, but no sign of a number plate sadly.

1505 had a single drum brake on one of the prop shafts. To park, you pushed the pedal down, and it locked on a ratchet, a lot similar to E brakes on American cars and pickups.

@MF-ANDY ?

No old tax discs in the cab by any slim chance ?

I remember the 750 we had having yellow headlights, and the indicators were on permanently, not flashing, when the work lights were on. The earlier 1100 tractors, what few were sold, had a handbrake designed for them, but the following 1135 and 55’s didn’t !

Again, classing it as historic does away with a lot of that. But MF brought approximately 50 of the 1155 and 1135’s over in the 70’s, and none of these had hand brakes fitted.

Going on experience of a car from America. If you have proof that you purchased it in the UK, from a previous UK owner ( receipt from auctioneers ) a new logbook etc should made available to you. If no revenue was paid upon the arrival of the tractor in the UK, HMRC should then be contacting...

Hy tran, or other alternatives, will be a GL4 classification and a 10w/30, so it is an SAE EP 80 gear oil.

Henry has now found out, that despite being the most flooded farm in England, he doesn’t qualify for the new government flood compensation scheme, as the river that burst and flooded him, isn’t on the EA list of qualifying rivers !

@4755dave Not sure if it’s of interest, but there is a Lite track for sale up this way. It did have a spreader body on it, but just a bare chassis and cab now. On Michelin 710’s.

Can’t help watch that without saying afterwards, in a Michael Caine accent, “you were only supposed to blow the bloody doors off”.

The E7 isn’t suitable for the for the latest generation JD’s with SCR and DPF, so could poison those parts as not a low SAPS oil.

It was April 2019 when the court case against JD was finalised, so would have gone through the +50 era to +50 II

You’ll not see it anymore.

John Deere did exactly this. They used to put on the barrels of +50 II that this product met the JD specific requirements of JDQ 78X. They claimed this product could do 750 hrs between drain intervals, anything not meeting JDQ 78X would only do 500 hrs. Trading standards for lubricants, in...

If the product is made by a reputable supplier, who sign up the ATIEL code of conduct, they will then quote the European ACEA and American API specifications. They will also be able to list OEM specifications, and formal approval from those OEM’s. These approvals will be formal, backed up by...

So would anyone who gets 30K to promote it !
