THIS WAS IN THE FUEL FILTER!!! YUCK!...WHAT IS IT?

What happens here

The host begins by replacing the front tires. He notes the old tires were dry-rotted and cracked. He explains that agricultural tires often use lug studs rather than lug nuts. He uses a jack to lift the tractor and an impact wrench to remove and install the lug nuts on the front wheels. He humorously points out the importance of proper footwear (steel-toe boots) when handling heavy tires, contrasting it with his crocs.

Goal: The old front tires are removed and replaced with new ones, using appropriate tools for agricultural lug studs and emphasizing safety precautions.

Tools and materials

  • Floor Jack / Jack Stands

so he lucked up when we went to the tire store the guy that owns a tire store had a set of agricultural tires was the exact same size that fit this tractor if you'll remember in the previous video the tires that were on this tractor were all dry rotted and cracked and we're just a mess so we got new tubes and new tires for the front of the tractor we're gonna go ahead and get those mounted up and you know tractor tires are pretty darn heavy I don't know if you guys have worked with a lot of farm equipment or a lot of tractor stuff but it seems that the pretty much universal standard is a lug stud versus a lug nut so we'll get our lug studs in here and I've got my Crocs on so in case I drop a tire on my foot I can crush it instead of being smart and wearing my steel toes I think we're gonna change shoes before we get to the big tire we'll go ahead and get our lug studs started up front here and we've got it sitting up on the jack and we'll lower the jack and we'll go back to the rear and we'll put that monster rear tire on I'm gonna say that rear tire weighs in the neighborhood of 200 pounds and it's not loaded in other words it doesn't have any kind of fluid in it such a small tractor like this probably doesn't need to have loaded tires if you guys have an opinion about that leave it in the video description we're gonna go on the other side of the tractor soon as we get this wheel on and we'll discuss what the issue was with the fuel delivery it was a fuel delivery issue here on the tractor I've drained the fuel tank but inside the fuel tank I guess diesel fuel can get this muck in it and I don't know what kind of muck you call it or exactly what you call it but it can get this slime buildup inside the tank so when we drained it a lot of it came out but not all of it came out so the new fuel filter that we put on that cost 17 bucks clogged up in about 15 minutes not cool so I'll show you what we're doing we've got a little system worked out until we can get all that trash out and then we'll pass it on to the new owner I've been mowing around just to make sure everything works good and trying to kick all that trash out and I'll show you the new little filter system here soon as we get done mounting these tires up all right we'll get front tire number two on and I've been mowing with this tractor so it's covered with dust and dirt now and we're going to go ahead and we'll pressure wash the tractor off
