Fluids Question Ford 3600
sotxbill, that was thorough. Thanks. Eman85, Harry in Ky, and Sean in PA, thank you very much. Taking the day off tomorrow. Owner will be running around on a pretty usable tractor when he returns from his trip. Again, thanks to all. -

Fluids Question Ford 3600
Have read some posts regarding fluids. One funny reply said the best way to start an argument was to ask about fluids for older tractors. Not my intent to be sure. That old 3600 is running and getting tested by pulling a trailer and a tiny amount of brush cutting with a little old Big Bee... -

Ford 3600 Diesel Loses Power/rpm Under Load
FIXED. Massive filth in tank. OCD cleanout. Thermostart and sending unit still need replaced. Owner wants to order from ebay. Strongly suggested ordering from yesterdaystractors.com. He has previously ordered from another tractor website for a different facepalm problem. Not for this... -

Ford 3600 Diesel Loses Power/rpm Under Load
Fritz It is a thermostart and the line from the unit was full of bad fuel. The hardline connects to a "doodad" that I cannot identify by a parts search here or in the shop manual. The doodad is bolted on a bracket forward of fuel tank and has the leak line to the filler neck attached and... -

Ford 3600 Diesel Loses Power/rpm Under Load
destroked 450 The pump inlet screen at the rear of the pump (Delphi-II). The pump was returned from rebuilder looking as if it were new out of the box. I almost think they did an exchange with a core charge, but they may actually be that good. Not even a smell of diesel on the rebuilt... -

Ford 3600 Diesel Loses Power/rpm Under Load
Told owner my best guess at why the yechs at F/NH stopped short was like an insurance job. If fixing will cost more than the item itself is worth, then it is "totaled". They deemed it too expensive to fix. I am agreeing with you and adding that people should not buy an older tractor unless... -

Ford 3600 Diesel Loses Power/rpm Under Load
All professional work(I am not pedigreed) was done at the owner's volition. I am the last resort. People get in touch with me after they reach the bottom of their mechanical money pit. Going to owner's place to do a lot of cleaning and inspecting after answering here. From what most of you... -

Ford 3600 Diesel Loses Power/rpm Under Load
Old crippled up man at the injection pump rebuilders(probably owner) heard description of issues and mention blockage in return. Think he was referring to the pump itself. While it ran, I watched the fuel leaking back into the tank at a good constant rate. I will have to remove that as well... -

After my chores, heading over to the owner's place. Overkill coming. Drain and remove tank. Remove shutoff and give the inside a thorough cleaning and inspection before reinstall and refill with fresh fuel. Clean and inspect line to filter and check filter seals. Bleed and try it out. The... -

Ford 3600 Diesel Loses Power/rpm Under Load
Alright Bern. You seem pretty confident and I like your stealership designation. He gave them a pretty hard talking to and is getting a refund on the injectors, but still out 500 dollars in wasted labor. 5 hours to replace three injectors. He told them he could guess what the problem was for... -

Ford 3600 Diesel Loses Power/rpm Under Load
Owner recently purchased a Ford 3600 Diesel. Tried to rake hay with it, but it quickly dropped rpm to 1400 and would barely crawl. Woul not regain rpm in neutral until after some time to cool down. Owner removed single fuel filter and replaced. Problem persisted. I removed new filter and...
