    Overheating ? (FE35)

    Overheating ? (FE35)

    Bill, It was the head gasket i guess. The first gasket from the top of the motor, halfway down on the left side. Just above where you top up the oil. Didnt leak again after i let it cool down. I might start her up again tomorrow and let her run for 15 mins and see what happens. Cheers

    MF35 Battery issue

    MF35 Battery issue

    Hi guys, I need some help. I have lent my MF35 to my son, who had some issues with the tractor starting. He suspected bad/old battery so took out the battery from his V8 ute and put it in the MF35. He turned the key and there was sparks and a click. He replaced this with the original...
