    leaking utf from brake drum

    I think you hit the nail on the head. I have over filled. I hate to ask this but where is the fill for the hydraulics?

    leaking utf from brake drum

    Finally got my 860 running. Thanks to many of you. Topped off the rear end fluids and noticed some is dripping out of the rear break drum. I am assuming there is a bad oil seal.can anyone confirm that is likely the issue? Thanks.

    cylinder number

    Did something stupid on my 800 series. I did not Mark what cylinders each piston came out of and need to know if the 1 is at the front or back. And just to make sure the rest of the order. Thanks in advance.

    Rocker arm/pushrod/valve adjustment

    Ford 800 Head

    Sorry for the crappy reply earlier. I was not aware of all the things that must be checked to make sure the work goes as planned. Now after talking to some mechanics (should have used one)I understand why if you going to part of the job you might as well do it fully and right. Sorry!

    Ford 800 Head

    Near amazement??? I thought I had a cracked piston in one cylinder since under stress oil would spray of of the breather. It seemed that the oil pan was getting pressured, and that one spark plug was all cruddy. Not only that but the oil smelled like gas, and when the tractor was running there...

    Ford 800 Head

    I decided to replace the rings on my Ford 800. I have never done this type of job before. Do I have to have the head machined before reinstalling?
