* Progress

Posted on February 24th, 2009 by ploughmyfield. Filed under TE-F20 Rebuild.


I’ve stripped the fuel filters, removed old paint, rubbed them own then sprayed with undercoat and assembled back on the tractor.

They look fab. helped by the dramatic ligthing in this photo I think.

The water pump has also been stripped and primed ready for assembly back on the tractor.

I had to use the nitro mors paint stripper on this one as it wouldn’t come off. I don’t mind using paint stripper. in most cases it’s not needed and I don’t like to use it as its expensive.

    Hi,
    The filters look great. I was wandering where you got the new braided fuel line running from the filter housing to the main fuel lines, mine is frayed and leaking so I need one. Keep up the good work,

    Damo.

    Hi Tim really like the whole site, visit almost daily!

    Was just looking at the filters page,

    I can’t see completely but, there seems to be a support strut missing (you may not have finished) but it would be a shame to crack the dash panel after all the hard work you are putting in.

    It links the front of the two filter housings to the mouting bolt for the engine breather.

    Keep up the good ork.

    Cheers Trev.

    Hi Tim,

    Looked at the pictures again,
    I owe you an apology, as it must be there as the bolt is in place on the filter housing.
    I was only concerned as the last TEF I “did” was missing this strut and cracked the dash.

    Regards Trev
