    MF 203 3 point timing question

    Someone took a look at my tractor a while ago, he said that the 3 point levers probably need timing. I lost his number, and can’t find anything online about it. He showed me a quick video that I haven’t been able to find, it looked like the levers were being calibrated like a scale with special...

    Hydraulic pump decreases in pressure under load?

    MF 203 main hydraulic pump for 3 point hitch. When it’s under load, the pressure reaches 500 psi, when not under load it can reach its operating pressure of around 2400. It struggles to lift 6 pallets, total weight around 200lbs. Also, the cover for the hitch levers seems to be loose, I move...

    MF 203 3 point not lifting under load?

    Recently bought this tractor, this is the first time using the 3 point under load. Transmission oil has been replaced. It sounds like it gurgles when it’s at max height without load, and I can feel something pulsing/pumping when it is trying to lift the load. It can not lift a 1400# bale. I...

    How do I clean out the transmission and differentials?

    Lol, cleaning is usually measured in minutes or hours, not weeks of run time

    How do I clean out the transmission and differentials?

    It’s hard to see inside the differential, might use a scope to look inside. By leaks that show up, does it mean the diesel eats the seals, or eats the sludge filling in the small gaps?

    How do I clean out the transmission and differentials?

    Massey Ferguson 203. I drained both plugs and this brown oil came out. The rear plug has a lot of sludge and debris on the bottom that I can’t get all out with a wire. In the same note the differentials look like they could use a cleaning too. Could I put 4 gallons of diesel in the transmission...

    Tachometer port for MF 203?

    I’ve got a 203 that didn’t come with the RPM gauge/tachometer wire. Where is the port for it on the engine? Edit: nevermind, I found it on the back of the engine a few inches from the fuel lift pump bulb. I was looking on the front of the engine like the videos I saw on other models

    Where to connect Massey Ferguson 203 stabilizer bars/chain?

    I understand now, thank you for explaining it. Now I just need to build the axle mount

    Where to connect Massey Ferguson 203 stabilizer bars/chain?

    Ok, just to make sure I got this right. When the hitch is connected it should be perfectly level to the tractor. When the sway bars are used the hitch cannot be tilted in either direction and must remain level, otherwise the load will not be able to be lifted. Did I get that right?

    Where to connect Massey Ferguson 203 stabilizer bars/chain?

    Thank you for your answer. I don’t quite understand what you mean about the stabilizer being in line with the draft link pins. Does that mean the line between both pins must be straight with a minimal angle? Because the hitch I have been modifying does not allow the draft links to fully “widen”...

    Where to connect Massey Ferguson 203 stabilizer bars/chain?

    I can’t figure out how to stabilize the 3 point hitch, or what to buy. I did find the possible mounts, are they it? The clearance is about 3.5 inches between a string and the tire. What stabilizer should I get? The 3 point hitch will be mainly used for 3x4x8’ bales, around 1400#.

    MF 203 FEL pump drive?

    Most of the fuel lines on mine leaks at the ferrules, but no leaks anywhere else. I’ll probably make the lines myself, at least the ones with easy to make curves. Since I just purchased it I don’t know how well it’ll do under load, but so far it shifts and runs well. I plan to replace most of...

    MF 203 FEL pump drive?

    I see, I was wondering what the pipe in my frame was for. What’s the best way to clean the tank out since it has been laying on the ground outside for a year or two? The loader was disassembled into all 4 pieces
