    656 Diesel fuel leak

    I am having a problem with my 656 Hydro Diesel. I have owned this tractor for many, many years and it was used, over the years, for baling, corn planting, mowing, hauling corn, spraying, etc. Now, though, all it does is blow snow and clip weeds, since the land is rented to a neighbor. It has...

    Must be Monday!

    Many years ago I broke an axle on the IH400 with a mounted 2ME picker on it in the middle of a wet spot in the field when the temperature was near freezing. It was not fun lifting the tractor, pulling out the broken axle and then replacing it. It took lots of blocking to hold the whole thing...

    Double step for Farmall 656

    Thanks guys. You bring up some excellent points. Whiskey, you are right about the medical aspect. I can't believe that aging can be such a pain. Twenty years ago I did not even need the one step that was already there. Now, here I am, a person who used to poke fun at those old men, and now...

    Double step for Farmall 656

    Ken, Thanks. I don't know how I missed them. I called them and they confirmed that it will work. $575 is a little steep, however she did say that there is a dealer near me that carries their products, and often the dealer can give a better price than the company. So, I will try them. Thanks...

    Double step for Farmall 656

    I am looking for a double step for my Farmall 656 Hydro. At 85 years old it is getting too hard to get on the tractor. It carries my snow blower so it is even more difficult with additional clothes and Zero degree weather. I would appreciate any leads you could give. I've tried the internet...

    miracle span building

    Mine is 40 years old and has some rust holes. When I built it my intention was to erect it myself, but that idea fizzled when I saw what was delivered. I hired a contractor and he built the floating footing and then assembled it. My only other real problem is that it is hard to pack machinery...

    like trains

    I agree about the American Flyer trains vs the Lionels. I got mine for Christmas in 1946. It still runs. I usually put it together about once a year. I'm 84 and it's getting harder to get on the floor to assemble all the track, though. Ken

    Vineagar/ Scale clean out

    Will this also work with a wet sleeved engine? Or do I run the risk of messing up the O rings? Ken

    8N oil leak into coolant

    Thanks for the information. I never considered the possibility of it coming from the around the rings and then through the head gasket. I don't know if it is an oil burner or not. He only uses it to haul maple sap out of the woods to be made into maple syrup. At least replacing the gasket is...

    8N oil leak into coolant

    My BIL has a Ford 8N that is putting oil into the coolant. Apparently, there is no coolant getting into the oil. He has not owned the tractor long and does not know its history. I have not seen the tractor and it has been a long time since I have been around any 8N’s. He thinks it might be the...

    8N oil leak into coolant

    Sorry, I posted on the wrong forum. It should have gone in the 2N, 9N, 8N Forum. I will repost there. Thanks.

    656D Injector or valve?

    Pete 23 -- Thanks for the information. Now I have to find someone who is able to make it run right without costing an arm and a leg. What would cause low fuel pressure? It seems as if this a greater problem in the winter and I am running summer diesel fuel. Could that be a factor? I use it...
