    In need of 24T baler chain information

    I once had a website where you could be 24T parts including chain kits but I cannot seem to find it now. My chains are in need of replacement but I cannot remember what chains the 24T baler uses. Does anyone have any information on what chains I need for a 24T? Your help is appreciated!

    Farmall H has a hard time cranking

    I'd check the starter. The stud on the starter can twist internally causing it to short to ground. I had this problem. I took it to a starter shop and they rebuilt it. Problem solved. Also, as others said, make sure you have the correct gauge wire connecting the batter to ground and to the...

    Oil leaking from front of transmission - delete pump

    My H was leaking gear oil from the transmission since I bought it. I bought the seals and settled in to replace them. I pulled the dust cover off and found that the pump driveshaft was gone. What was worse, the female drive coupler on the transmission side was also missing. (The coupler...

    73 656 Diesel Starting problem

    I have a 1973 656 with D282 diesel. When I press the start button to turn over the engine, the starter makes a noise and it won't turn over the engine. This was happening rarely and now more often than not. If I repeatedly press the start button, it will eventually engage and when it does...

    International 656 Utility Diesel rear end gear oil

    Thanks Rustred- I'm embarrassed that I still cannot find it. (Maybe the loader is covering it or something?) Could anyone show me a couple of pics where I might find it? Also, I notice it's seeping fluid out of the clutch inspection plate. Any one have any ideas as to what that might be...

    International 656 Utility Diesel rear end gear oil

    Hi All, We recently moved and I don't know where I packed by 656 manual. Does anyone have an electronic copy or can anyone remind me how to check the gear oil in my tractor? And what weight is it supposed to be? It's a 656 Diesel Utility tractor - gear drive Thanks in advance, Bill

    NH 455 sicklebar mower

    Thanks so much for all of this information. I'm looking for the section and a half knife. Is there a tool to put the rivets into the bar? Or will the bolts also work? I'm going to post some pictures of the end of my mower so you guys can see what I currently have.

    NH 455 sicklebar mower

    I just purchased a NH 455 sickle bar mower for $150. The mower works great but grass gets caught in the hole where the last knife goes through the shoe at the end of the sickle bar. Over time, the grass bunches up and lifts the bar off the ground. It looks like it's missing a part as there...

    640 starving for fuel after getting hot

    I finally found the issue with my 641 and it runs fine now. I had a bad ignition switch wire between the terminal block and the ignition switch. When I tested the ignition switch early on in the troubleshooting process, I jumped it at the switch's terminals. The broken wire was upstream from...

    640 starving for fuel after getting hot

    Thanks Kurt! After looking a parts list for the distributor, the clip was missing. To make a fast repair, I went to the local New Holland dealer and they had one. (It was $7!). I think these clips should be supplied with the new rotor!

    Ford 841 Running Rough

    I had the exact same symptoms that you are talking about on my 641. I just fixed mine yesterday and it runs great. Check the ignition switch. Jump it out to see if this makes a different. But, jump it out at the terminal block. I checked my tractor early on and found a bad wire BEFORE the...

    tractor choking out

    I thought so too, but checked all lines last night. No fuel leaking anywhere and I just added 5 gals of gas, too. If air is getting into the system, wouldn't fuel leak out, too?

    640 starving for fuel after getting hot

    I also forgot to mention... There is some slop in the distributor rotor. The old rotor had it.. and so does the new one. What I mean by slop is I can turn the rotor by hand from 4-5 o'clock before it stops. It's not solid on the distributor. I checked for slop in the distributor shaft by...

    Ford 841 Running Rough

    I'm having same problem with my 641. I checked fuel flow and replaced coil. Adding some choke helps it when it's sputtering and backfiring when idling down. It almost stalls. Last night when it was running poorly, I checked the sediment bowl and found bubbles in the bowl. Does yours...
