    John Deere 2010 crawler

    Can somebody tell me where to find the serial# on a track loader, it is supposed to be a 2010. There is a plate that says model 820, made in Canada, that I assume is for the loader. I got service and parts books with it but not the operators manual. How does this machine compare size wise to...

    Case 310B distributer swap

    I like the coil wire idea for more light, I have to get it running so I can give it a try! I hadn't noticed your little slip but it is good to correct these things so as not to confuse people who read this thread in the future. I appreciate your help, Rob

    I found the hole in the bellhousing, it is very inconvieniently located. There is no sign of a pointer, should it be centre of hole? ( I am viewing through a mirror)

    MF 135 FEL

    Was it a 3x2 transmission or a 4x2? I bought a cast metal headlight holder at a closed dealer's auction a while back, nobody here has ever seen one before.it looks to be the same as the plastic ones, have you ever seen them? I am more of a David Brown man myself but I use my 135 every day for...

    Case 310B distributer swap

    Wow, that should get me a long way forward, I had no idea there was a timing hole in the bell housing! Is the dc mark actually TDC and IGN is 4 degrees before TDC? I find it hard by myself to turn the front hydraulic pump shaft with a pipe wrench through the loader arms while holding a probe in...

    MF 135 FEL

    Hey David nice tractor! We have the "UK" version here in Canada as well with the headlights in the front grill but the flat top fenders are more like the American model. Are they Original? What year? Rob

    Rear Tractor Tires

    The bigger the tractor the faster they use.An old 30 hp is only trying to apply 15 hp per tire and maybe 1 ton each where as a 140 hp under load is more than 4 times the work

    Case 310B distributer swap

    I bought my old backhoe last year after an engine fire and now I want it to start earning it's keep. The distributer had been hot enough to melt the point's plastic and it sat a few years outside with no cap so it looked pretty sad. I took a similar distributer (prestolite IAD-6004-2F) instead...

    Carb problem case 310B

    Thanks Joe, that should provide me with all I need for the carb. I am going to post a new question about the distributer so the search function is effective in years to come.

    Carb problem case 310B

    That is a great start thank-you!I suspect the tag is gone from mine but I will check tommorrow.The brass plug shown bottom left of your pic is called a nozzle hole plug in my book, it is a small steel slotted head set screw that I didn't remove because it will break. Blowing air from the high...

    DB 1200 selectomatic

    We used to run engine oil when the tractor was new but had lots of problems in below freezing conditions. We then switched to TCH fluid and had almost no problems. Straight hydraulic oil is generaly not recomended for transmision applications I believe because of extreme pressure when oil is...

    Carb problem case 310B

    Hi, I am trying to start an old case backhoe. I took the carb apart and cleaned it up a bit. There is no seat for the high speed needle and it can't bottom out so how do I find the initial setting? It is a Marvel carb but the book shows a tsx635 for gas or a tsx680 for "low cost fuel". I have...
