    Ford 3000 will only run on choke

    Also may want to check your fuel cap, make sure it is venting.

    861 power steering

    About 500 hours on p/s fluid, as for filter, I have owned the tractor 15 years and never replace it. Looks like a good place to start.

    861 power steering

    I have a 1958 861 with the early style piston type p/s pump. As I drove it out of the shed last week I noticed I had very little assist in my steering, maybe 50% at most. Checked fluid and belt tension, all is good and no leaks. I did notice the p/s cylinders felt very warm as well as the pump...

    861 diesel

    Yes, that was my original plan. But the bolt is retained internally to the cover. I have had the cover off, looked over the under side and can't see what keeps the bolt retained, must be a internal locking ring that locks into a groove in the bolt. I can still use the tractor, so don't want to...

    861 diesel

    I replaced the seal on the bleed screw, that is ok, leaks is from the center mounting bolt that goes through the filter. Thinking there must be a seal of some kind under the bolt head, but bolt and cover are sold as a assembly, not meant to come apart.

    861 diesel

    I have a 1959 861 Diesel, trying to locate the top cover for the fuel filter. I ordered from Messicks but order come back no longer available, Part # 311865. The top cover is leaking fuel, I think from the center bolt. Wondering if any one has tried to pull the center bolt and reseal ?

    NH tn75da will not come out of 4wd

    I have a 2007 New Holland tn75da, occasionally it has stuck in 4wd but in the past has went to 2wd after a little use. Now it will not come out. It has the electric 4wd switch, I tested the switch and have power in and out of the switch. I see in the parts cat. that there is a solenoid to shift...

    850 Diesel

    I had the same problem with my 861, loping at idle. I had set the timing per manual, still had the same problem. I ended up moving the pump slightly while idling tell loping stopped, runs fine now. I should also mention it did lope at pto speed while running my haybine, timing reset cured that too.

    Loader float position

    I have a 2007 New Holland TN75DA with a 810TL loader. I bought the tractor used a couple years ago. I thought it had a float position by pushing all the way forward on the joystick. When I push the stick all the way down all I get is down pressure. Am I wrong about the float position, or could...

    TN75DA overheating

    Thanks again Rick B. for the info. I got the new sending unit from New Holland, the correct one for the gauge. Can you tell me which side of the head the sender is located ? The parts books shows it on the left side, above the oil filter. With the turbo, a/c, and all the other stuff crammed on...

    TN75DA overheating

    The one I replaced was on the water pump, near the thermostat housing. As per my New Holland dealer. Guess that would explain why it still goes to hot on start up. Thanks ! I'll be calling my dealer Monday morning.

I replaced the thermostat, still went to hot. replaced the temp sending unit, still pegs to red and back to cold, even after only...

    NH 489

    Thanks for the info Tom, not sure how far I want to go to grease this joint, but 25 years on factory grease sounds like a break down waiting to happen. How big of a job is it to pull the tongue ?
