    Brief spluttering when revving up

    Thanks Jim I Went through absolutely everything when it was all sorted. Distributer was thoroughly cleaned and checked with new parts as was the rest of the ignition system and the carb. I can live with it. It still does everything I need it to do👍

    Brief spluttering when revving up

    Hi all Turns out when I rebuilt my te 20 z120 I had the ignition pretty badly retarded. Have now static timed it set to 7degree BTDC as per the book I think. It certainly pulls better and runs cooler, still have a bit of a dead spot (splutters a wee bit) as I did before when I initially...

    Has anyone removed a Ferguson te20 rear axle sure seal and how did you do it

    As the title suggests, has anyone removed a rear axle sure seal on an old Fergie te20? Mine was leaking bad so stripped it all and was surprised to see a a sure seal already fitted. Rubber lip is perished so have started to remove. Not as easy as I thought. Will apply heat if I can’t budge it...

    Ferguson te20 z120 coolant foaming

    Thanks Charles. Sound advice. There is no thermostat at present, at what point that was removed is anyones guess. I haven’t bothered to fit another yet. It’s not a huge amount of foam, just sits on the top and fortunately it’s not overheating. I’ll check bolt torque again though. Thanks again

    Ferguson te20 z120 coolant foaming

    I’ve done a sniff test on it which proved negative the countless times I’ve done it so that’s encouraging. I know the head is cracked but pretty sure I’ve repaired it well enough. Foam is pretty thin and not bubbling over and coolant doesn’t sound like it’s boiling

    Ferguson te20 z120 coolant foaming

    Hi all, my coolant is foaming in the rad. It has been flushed and thoroughly cleaned and now I’ve noticed the coolant foaming. Am I looking at a head or gasket leak? It’s got the correct coolant and mix. I’ve done a sniff test a few times in to see if the combustion gases are getting into the...

    Ferguson te20 (z120) 6v & 12v mess

    Thanks very much for the reply. Thought the starter motor would suffer from the higer voltage, but your 40 years of use that way is encouraging. I don’t believe I have bosses in the block so will look for a an alternator price.

    Ferguson te20 (z120) 6v & 12v mess

    Hello everyone as the title suggests, my tractors electrical system is a mess. It runs fine but I’ve got: 6v dynamo 12v battery 12v regulator 12v coil 6v starter. Not sure what route to take as I said it runs fine, going back to all 6v or going all 12v is going to cost a bit to sort out. Or...

    Z120 throttle response

    Hello everyone Hope I can lean on your experience once again please. I’m not entirely happy with the throttle response on the old girl. Unless done slowly if increasing the revs fast it sounds like it could stall occasionally or spits and stutters a bit before picking up. These are the...

    Fast idle Te 20 z120 engine

    Yeah rebuilt and cleaned but had a new throttle body, all correctly fitted but might be a bigger linkage and not traveling as far. Thanks for the advice, need to investigate in the morning

    Fast idle Te 20 z120 engine

    Hi folks after a little advice please. Since carrying out a rebuild and clean on the carb I’ve got a lot faster idle than before. I believe the engine is running well and carb is set up correctly I didn’t touch or adjust any of the governor linkage at all so can’t understand why it’s idling...
