    860 fires but won't start

    I have the same coil that came with my 12v conversion. I don't believe there is any RF suppression in my plug wires. I had not read about that potentially damaging the sensors. This coil issue could be the problem as I looked up the coil I have which I think is a UC15T and it is sometimes being...

    860 fires but won't start

    The electronic ignition is two wires, and I ran the pertronix test proceedure to determine it had gone bad after it had been running fine for several months. I was not aware that leaving the key on could damage it so that is probably why it failed. I ordered a new model that has a protection...

    860 fires but won't start

    So my last idea was to switch it back to the points system. I did that and it fired right up. So far I'm not very impressed with the electronic ignition. I don't know what's up with it but obviously something isn't right. At least I can get the driveway clear now.

    860 fires but won't start

    Thanks for the suggestion. I didn't exactly do that but I did spray starting fluid in the carb and it seems to have no effect. It just fires enough to kick the starter off the flywheel and doesn't run for any length of time. Come to think about it, this suggests it's spark related and when I...

    860 fires but won't start

    I'm stumped. I was running my 860 for snow removal and it was running fine then in the middle of a pass it just quit. No sputtering or anything, almost like I shut the key off. I thought maybe the carb float stuck as that has happened before but only when it sits. Tapped the carb bowl with a...

    Repair Gauges - 641 Workmaster

    Steiner was good about the two times I had to "return" it. They didn't require me to send the gauge back, which was nice. I wasn't on hold for a long time and they weren't at all debating whether I installed it correctly. They just asked me to keep the gauges in case they wanted them back. They...

    Hydraulic pump coupling

    Hello, I'm thinking about trying to use this pump with a splined shaft on my tractor but the tractor's double chain coupling off the front of the engine has a keyed shaft. It's described as a 3/4 11T Spline coming out of the pump and the sprocket I need it to attach to is a 40 pitch 16 tooth...

    Repair Gauges - 641 Workmaster

    I just replaced my proofmeter with a new one from Steiner's. Reasonably priced, but I wish I paid more for a higher quality part. It took three tries to get a working meter. It's now at like 8 hours and seems to be working but the first one only clocked up one hour then stopped rolling hours...

    Ford 860 front mount Eaton 26013 hydraulic gear pump

    I was looking at a three spool valve, just to have the extra one. There are two of them at Summit that look pretty similar but one says it is a "Single Float" valve and is $90 more. What is the difference? Thanks in advance.

    Ford 860 front mount Eaton 26013 hydraulic gear pump

    Right now I have the hoe IN connected to bucket tilt and hoe OUT connected to the other bucket tilt line. Everything is on quick connects so it's not a big deal to swap around. I wedge the bucket valve open in one direction and it seems to run the hoe perfectly. Zero pressure until I run the...

    Ford 860 front mount Eaton 26013 hydraulic gear pump

    Doh! Of course, there's no pressure anywhere until one of the loader valves is moved off center position. Well this sucks. It's running the hoe fine on the bucket circuit, but it would be nice to not lose the bucket tilt when I have the hoe online. I think I need a new valve with power beyond to...

    Ford 860 front mount Eaton 26013 hydraulic gear pump

    The update: I was about to buy a new pump when I thought to check dimensions closely and it turned out that the new equivalent pumps I could find were an inch or so bigger and wouldn't fit in my bracket. Could have modified it but decided to check eBay and found some NOS parts for my exploded...

    Ford 860 front mount Eaton 26013 hydraulic gear pump

    Nothing meaningfully different. I just got the backhoe and haven't had time to plumb it in. The loader is on quick connects so I just disconnect the bucket cylinders and plug the backhoe into the bucket circuit and wedge open the valve to run the backhoe. But none of that was hooked up at the...

    New sprocket for front mount hydraulic pump is super tight fit

    Yes, the hub has rubber bushings in it. I think alignment was the major factor. It had one totally stripped hub bolt and another with barely any threads left. Helicoiled both. The sprocket faces were not on parallel planes as well. I think it was wandering and working around as it rotated just...

    Ford 860 front mount Eaton 26013 hydraulic gear pump

    That is pretty much how it's plumbed. The explosion was certainly related to the loading valve somehow as it was running fine prior to putting that in. Best guess is a chunk of debris plugged the small passages in the valve but might have just fell out when I disassembled. If I run a loading...
