    Ford 640 hydraulics

    Any places I should focus on? Are there seals in there that can fail? Where is the pressure relief valve?

    Ford 640 hydraulics

    I looked down the fill port and didn't see any leaks. I guess the cover under the pto lever is next.

    Ford 640 hydraulics

    My 640 had water in the fluid when I got her. Several changes later and the 3 pt is very slow and won't even lift my weight. Do I have a bad pump or could it be something else?

    Ford 800 hydraulics

    I have a 850 that the hydraulic are acting up. In draft control it won't raise more than a few inches. In position control it will raise all the way but won't lower all the way. Any ideas

    County line implements?

    I don't think I'll buy anything PTO driven but I need a middle buster and a carry all. I need a garden bedder also but I don't think they make one of those.

    County line implements?

    What is the general opinion on County Line implements from TSC? I have an 850 Ford but no implements. I won't be doing anymore than just yard and garden work and price is pretty high on my priority list.

    Mud in antifreeze?

    I had only bought the tractor a few weeks before that so I have no idea about the previouus maintenance schedule. It all came out with a pressure washer. Thank you for all the information.

    Mud in antifreeze?

    I tore down my Ford 850 engine to do a rebuild this week. When i removed the freeze plug behind the #4 cylinder it was packed with a mud like substance. Has anyone else seen this? Could it be mud or has the coolant gone bad somehow?

    ford 850 3 pt

    I just got a ford 850. The 3 pt has draft and position control that is selected by a lever under the seat. When in position control it wont go low enough for a scrape blade to touch the ground. When in draft control it wont go high enough to pull a 14" plow out of the ground. What could be wrong?

    1955 850 fuel problems

    It has a metal line and when i drained the tank i could see a little of it in the bottom. Could it be a lead substitute that has settled out? And do i need lead substitute?

    1955 850 fuel problems

    I just bought an 850 from a friend of mine. He's had it for about 5 years with no issues but it stopped running about six months ago. Because he has several other tractors and i had asked if he would sell one he decided to not mess with it and I got it. It turned out to be a bad key switch but...
