    1973 Ford 3000 Fuel Line Replacement Challenge

    My fuel line is leaking and no amount of tightening is fixing the leak. This line runs from the filter to the CAV. The one that is on the tractor now is a hard plastic, and the filter end has a male connections that tightens the compression ring into the filter housing. The CAV end slips over...

    1973 Ford 3000 Solenoid Wiring

    I did not know that about the plunger. I could tell when I took off the old solenoid, I had to slide it to the left to disengage the fork, but I didn't know there was a particular way to re-install. I just entered on the left and slide it back on. I better relook at that function. Your...

    Ford one arm loader fitment?

    Hey Ultradog MN! I hear you might know a thing or two about Ford 3000s. I have a 73. I don't have much experience working on tractors, just to be transparent. Eager to learn though. I hooked up the new solenoid to the starter (I had to take the starter off to get to the other nut). I...

    1973 Ford 3000 Solenoid Wiring

    Yes, I believe it is a 5 starter and yes, it looks like the pictures you posted. Thank you! Do you know why the starter turns over when I attempt to connect the negative battery cable (which is already connected to the starter, and the positive is already connected to the solenoid) to the...

    1973 Ford 3000 Solenoid Wiring

    Sorry, I forgot to mention, yes, it mounts right on the starter. The strange thing is, I took off the new one, re-installed the old one, wired it the same, and it is doing the same shorting/turning over the starter when I touch the negative battery cable to the terminal. I think that...

    1973 Ford 3000 Solenoid Wiring

    Thanks, but that is the wrong solenoid. My mounts into the tractor. About an hour ago, I found the same part I ordered off Amazon on YT, so I am fairly certain it is the right part.

    1973 Ford 3000 Solenoid Wiring

    The first one I bought was from All States, but they sent the wrong one and didn't have the right one. I searched high and low online and found one on Amazon. (Ford 2000 3000 4000 5000 Starter Solenoid. D7NN11390B) I was a bit surprised to find it there, but it looks exactly the same, but...

    1973 Ford 3000 Solenoid Wiring

    Hi, I replaced the solenoid on my 1973 Ford 3000. I thought I hooked up up correctly. But as soon as I touched the negative cable to the battery, it sparked and attempted to turn over. Besides making me jump a mile high, I am confused as to what is going on. I have searched high and low for a...
