Ford 661 grinds when engaging pto
I noticed today that the cotter key is missing. I bent a piece of wire up in the hole and poked around nothing came out. Could I remove that cover and replace the key? If I can access the clutch spray some brake cleaner on it from there too? -

I noticed today that the cotter key is missing, I ran a piece of wire bent at 90* up in the hole and poked around. Nothing came out, is there any issues with removing the plate and replacing the cotter pin and spraying brake cleaner on the clutch from there,? If you can access it from there. -

Thank you for your suggestion, I did replace the pin that was in there with a lynch pin couple years back because the pin that was in it used a cotter pin and with my arthritis it's easier to use a lynch pin. I will put the original back in tomorrow and see if that's it. I didn't use it much... -

661 shuts off with key sometimes

661 shuts off with key sometimes
No, I would say not dieseling, it will run as long and smooth as you want until you choke it. I have also checked the key switch with test light, and replaced it, but that was some time back. The weird thing is, it may work like it should many times, then it won't. Really random, I may find the... -

I was just reading the posts and came across the 860 wiring one where the owner was saying that his sometimes runs on after he shuts it off, but his runs like it's only one or two cylinders. Question, mine was changed to 12 volts by PO when I bought it, it has the 3 wire GM alternator, it did... -

On my 661 the prawn is held on by 2 nuts, the swivel piece has a cotter key on it if I remember right. I'm not looking at it that's just from memory. I'll look at it later if you want and post back if you need more help. CJ
