How Garbage Biodiesel Ruined My Classic Massey Ferguson Tractor (And How I Fixed It)

What happens here

The cleaned fuel shut-off valve is carefully reinstalled into the bottom of the fuel tank, ensuring a secure connection to the fuel line. Once the valve is in place, the fuel tank is refilled with fresh diesel fuel using a funnel, making sure the new fuel is free of contaminants. He mentions that the fuel tank is known to get rust and algae build-up in these tractors, especially with poor quality biodiesel.

Goal: Secure the fuel shut-off valve and introduce fresh fuel to the system.
