    Still having steering trouble on 4610

    Well, I got a new steering pump after replacing the filter did no good. Installed the new pump and the steering is still crappy and the new pump gets too hot in my opinion. I have some steering noise in the steering column as well. It's a bit of a whine. The steering works about half as well as...

    ford power steering

    Well I changed the filter in my 4610 power steering unit. Anyone know for sure what kind of oil is supposed to be used in it (the power steering)? I'm too lazy to find my book and too stupid to ask my parts guy, lol. Is it just hydraulic fluid?

    4610 ford tractor steering

    Thats the way I understood my parts guy but I thought someone here said to pull the whole pump. I knew it would probably be obvious tomorrow when I ge tthe filter and start on it but it's good to know now. Thanks!

    4610 ford tractor steering

    Thats what I figured as well, I priced a new one this morning. Parts man told me he's try changing the filter first though, same as mentioned here. Does the entire pump have to come off to replace the filter? If so I don't know that it's worth not just replacing the whole thing when I...

    I was serious about the tractor, one of those things that I knew I should probably leave alone but was still a nagging feeling in my gut that says it's worth it. The dual power switch is gone so there's no way to test it without a pressure test I guess and the guy made it very clear thats as...

    Oh, forgot to mention, appearently the dual power swith thats supposed to be there is missing or broken as well. Probably might as well figure on replacing the dual power along with the PTO. Whoever buys it.

    Well, the dealer came down to a flat $13,000 on that tractor. I offered to rent it and pay the repair bill at a ford dealer for the rent and under contract that I buy it after fall harvest. They said, no..we can set it up through JD credit with 20% down if you'll fill out the paperwork. I...

    4610 ford tractor steering

    Hey guys, I have a 4610 ford tractor that the power steering quit working on. I imagine it's the little pump but I'm not sure. Is there any way of checking it without just R&R with a new one? It started out weak without the engine at full RPM now it's just dead without any assistance at all.

    It's not diesel leaking at the injector pump, it's motor oil. I thought it was coming from a gasket near the pump. I didn't see any diesel leaks on the tractor, sorry I didn't clearify that. The pan gasket may not be leaking, might have just been the other oil running down and around there. I...

    Yeah, they were asking 16.5 for the thing and I thought that was high for all the problems it has but didn't know for sure. The PTO I considered as being the worst of the problems. The engine sounds okay and tranny is a little sloppy at the shifters but works alright. The PTO wouldn't pull the...

    Sweet, thanks Bern. Were those things a peice of crap or what. One for sale near me with oil leaks at the pan and diesel pump and a leaky water pump and a weak PTO. I was trying to get an idea what kind of money would have to be sunk into it to fix it up. I wonder now if it would be a waste of...

    Curious about how much it would cost to rebuild a PTO on a TW-15 ford tractor 1985 MFWD. Just an idea, no need to be exact.
