Vintage Thursday. Setting Massey Ferguson 35X tappets.
Overview
A focused, step-by-step walkthrough of setting valve tappets on a Massey Ferguson 35X with a Perkins engine, deliberately made as a standalone reference so it's searchable later. It covers rocker shaft installation, locating TDC via the flywheel inspection hole, the rule-of-nine firing-order method for a three-cylinder, and feeler gauge technique at 12 thou clearance. Best for owners doing this job themselves.
Posted by the CowfarmerDan channel, presenting as a hands-on owner working through a multi-part engine rebuild series.
