    Wonder how many girls got pregnant in the back seat of that thing.

    Coil maybe?

    Put a Napa IC14SB coil ($17) on as been recommended on this site and the wee machine starts and purrs along like never before. Thanks for all your help. One more problem solved by the team of specialists!! This site is priceless for its good-natured info and support. o

    Coil maybe?

    The WD sprayed inside and outside the dist did the trick for starting it and running. Looked dry before and I wiped with a cloth but not good enough I guess. Funny, but now I remember my Dad doing that to his JD Model40 when I was a kid. I remember because I was just tall enough to get some...

    Coil maybe?

    After sitting tarped for 3 weeks in mild weather, my "55 650 is having starting and running difficulty that it didn"t have before I parked it. She fires and sputters and dies. Occasionally she fires, starts, runs good for a few to several minutes, then dies. I drained gas and refilled...

    Seal blowby update

    Yes gguy, there are two Orings on the dipstick shaft. Instead of running loose, I drilled a small hole in the 1/2-in socket slot of the top fill plug and that did the trick. I filled the plug inset with loose steel wool to keep the dirt out but still allow pressure equalization. After running...

    Seal blowby update

    There is a hyd dipstick, but I don"t know whether the fluid fill level in each of the three cases of the 600 series is the same. I use the 134D in all three as recommended on this board, and after this episode I"m sure glad I did! I"ll vent the hyd case and let you all know if that cures the...

    Seal blowby update

    Thanks much, Dean. I"ll try a loose plug and see if that takes care of my leak issue. If so, I can easily make a vent. Is the PTO in the hyd case supposed to be bathed in oil at all times? Because the fluid level in the hyd case is getting pretty low. o

    Seal blowby update

    I did what Texas! suggested and drained the trans to the level hole and ran it for a while. 3/4 quart came out, which is odd because I filled it to spec when I changed the fluid. So I assume that it is coming from the hyd case. When I shut off the engine I could hear the fluid pushing past...

    Shifter seal fluid blowby

    No pump or fittings as you describe, Tex. I looked at the photos and see where it should have been.

    Shifter seal fluid blowby

    "you should have told us these pertinant details up front instead of making us guess." Come on SG, was this really necessary? My intention was obviously not to make you guess at anything. Not a game, just some friendly questions from someone trying to learn. OK, you're upset at my joke, I...

    Shifter seal fluid blowby

    Save the scolding tone for your morning coffee crew. I don't know what's pertinent until you ask. That's why I'm here! :) Everything's as I said above. Fluid coming out the shifter tube. Pressure builds in hyd and trans cases. Fluid levels topped off, with no apparent change, but I'll...

    Shifter seal fluid blowby

    I'll recheck all fluids tomorrow morning, but the hyd level was the same when I shut it down. Routing of the hydraulic tubes is not clear in my manuals. Why does the tube go through the trans? I've never had one of these apart. It appears the hyd lift cover was replaced with a flat plate...

    Shifter seal fluid blowby

    Hmmm, ruptured thingamajigger. Doesn"t sound good. What is this exactly? I"ll look in my manuals. All fluids were changed and filled as per the manual. The is nothing used in the hyd case because the front loader uses a Wagner crank-driven pump and the backhoe uses a Cross brand PTO-driven...
