    Headlight Bulb Stuck in Housing?

    I haven't had the issue, but I have some questionable ideas. Probably tape the lense first. Maybe blow compressed air through the hole with the wires to pop it out. Also the bulbs are not too expensive, could just bust the glass out. The terminals are probably pretty corroded on the...

    MF 135 Steering

    I'd be interested to see the responses on this as I have the same steering box with about 9k hours of wear on it. Is there a reason that you aren't rebuilding the box you have?

    MF 135 stuck PTO clutch

    There clutch was replaced around 2000, but the tractor has very few hours since. The clutch fork runs out of stroke before the clutch bottoms out. This threw me for a loop so much because, at the previous adjustment, the clutch fork bottomed out at the same time as the second stage bolts...

    MF 135 stuck PTO clutch

    I think you are right about the finger adjustment. I think my problem is that half the head thickness of the finger bolts is worn away. I think it was a previous throwout bearing that was the culprit, because the face of the one in there is smooth. I set the second stage stop bolts from .090...

    MF 135 stuck PTO clutch

    I figured out the problem. When I thought I was standing on the second stage clutch, the throwout bearing was actually at it's maximum travel. I suspect the clutch has very few hours on it (meaning it is thick). I believe at some point in the life of the tractor, the throwout bearing went bad...

    U-Haul hauling a tractor

    I was bringing a bunch of implements too, so I used a 20ft e450 U-Haul truck. The only truck I have a GMC Sprint (El Camino). There trailer was obviously above it's capability.

    MF 135 stuck PTO clutch

    I have adjusted the pedal to pretty much what these instructions say. I haven't adjusted the stop bolts yet, but they are making contact before the clutch pedal bottoms on the running board. I am going to try and reduce the stop bolts gap to see if it helps. There are additional stop...

    MF 135 stuck PTO clutch

    I posted this in restoration, and it was suggested I post this here as well. I recently acquired a family owned 1966 MF 135 with the Continental gas engine. I believe a lot of work was done at once around 2000 including an engine rebuild and clutch. The tractor has be used some, but not...

    MF 135 stuck PTO clutch

    I figure it's rusted or has oil causing it to stick. I am leaning to rust because I blocked the pedal down overnight with no movement. I feel like oil suction would have allowed it to slowly release overnight. I don't think I can get a puddy knife in there, but I'll pick up some break clean...

    MF 135 stuck PTO clutch

    There isn't linkage, the pedal is direct on the throw out bearing release shaft. I have adjusted the pedal per the manual.

    MF 135 stuck PTO clutch

    The linkage is like you pictured. I engaged the PTO with the tractor off then started the engine. Fortunately the starter, battery and engine are good.

    1976 MF 230 steering help

    Don't know if this helps, but 1090346m1 (used on a 135) might cross reference to Omix-Ada 18002.03. I bought a seal under the Massey Ferguson number and the printing on it was c684 5 kcy 28 36.5 5.7/7.6 tto. It seems to fit good. It doesn't seem to be leaking, but it has just been...

    U-Haul hauling a tractor

    I thought I would post and let people know U-Haul has changed their rules and now allows you to haul a tractor on an auto transport trailer. I hauled a Massey Ferguson 135 (unbalasted) with a bush hog 500 miles without issue. Additional straps are needed to secure the tractor. I was...

    MF 135 stuck PTO clutch

    I've lurked around here for a while, but never posted. I recently acquired a family owned 1966 MF 135 with the Continental gas engine. I believe a lot of work was done at once around 2000 including an engine rebuild and clutch. The tractor has be used some, but not much since then. My...
