    135 diesel cooling system

    The lower radiator hose on my 135 diesel never gets warm...but the tractor does not seem to overheat; stays at 190 degrees if my guage is right. I have flushed system, replaced water pump, thermostat, radiator (was damaged beyond core). If I squeeze the lower hose, the radiator...

    MF 135 solenoid

    Thanks for your help guys! It was the solenoid...all back together. My confusion was that I was told it tested ok... Oh well...back and running. Seems like a straight little tractor! I'm sure I'll have more questions.....

    MF 135 solenoid

    New to me MF 135 with Perkins diesel. Starter difficult to engage; need to continually bump the switch...toggle on-off until it finally catches. Replace some old wiring that had bad insulation. Took starter to NAPA where it tested fine, including the solenoid. Starter switch tests ok for...

    NAA hydraulic system gasket failure

    Thanks for the input! Good surfaces...double checked that... Not sure about the pressure relief valve though...I'll do some research and clean-it. Do you know torques for the lift cover...I just "guessed" at it....

    NAA - can't set initial timing

    Hmmm...didn't know about two sets of marks...I'll use white chaulk on a set and try again. Dumb question: with my finger over the hole...how do you tell which cycle the engine is on...compression vs exhaust? Especially when there are two sets of marks? I must be missing something here...never...

    NAA - can't set initial timing

    Re-built distributor on NAA, and can"t set initial timing. About to call it quits! Followed shop manual...I think... Found TDC with timing marks showing in window; rotated engine by hand until 8 degrees showed. Pulled distributor and aligned rotor to #1 distributor tower. Rotated distributor...

    NAA Coil Failure

    Thanks to all. I've read that condensors can be bad...but replace both points and condensor with the tune. Just to clarify, the tractor currently has no spark, even when cold. I'm gonna swap condensors, and also test for coil spark... Also will test for 6000 +/- ohms... I don't think the...

    NAA Coil Failure

    I had a recent mis-fire issue with the tractor (NAA orig. 6volt system)and did a tune-up including plugs, coil, condensor, carb clean, etc...ran GREAT! Started tractor yesterday: it ran 2-3 minutes and died. No spark to any plugs. Tested 6V power from battery to the coil, thru the switch; all...

    NAA Fuel starvation

    George: thanks for the input. I had some minor debris in the tank, did a quick cleanout. I checked all of the screens you mentioned, with no debris seen. I am going to try and pull the carb plug the next time it happens to check for fuel. Also, all heat shields in place with no holes. On...

    NAA Fuel starvation

    I hope you guys can help me... NAA under load mowing runs fine for 1 hour or more, then acts like it is starved for fuel. I have: 1) sloshed out tank, replaced coil, boiled and cheaned carb, new fuel line, new vent cap, cleaned radiator/new antifreeze, new valve/sediment bowl. Keep in mind I...
