1966 Ford 3000 diesel- Need oil bath air cleaner clamp
The clamp that holds the oil cup and base together fell off while I was using the tractor. Gone forever. I am having a difficult time finding this part. It is larger than the older (pre-65) version and appears to be 'no longer serviced'. Does anyone know where I can find the right clamp or a... -

Ford 3000 PTO shaft problem from hell
The PTO shaft on my 3000 (8 speed with live PTO) developed a crack and needed to be replaced. I ordered an after market shaft to replace the old one. It was #C5NNA728A. However, when I tried to fit it on the PTO coupling, it did not fit. It appears that the groves in the new shaft are not cut... -

PTO wobble
1966 Ford 3000. Just replaced the PTO shaft seal. When I put everything back, I had wobble in pto output shaft. When I disengage the PTO, it spins true when spun by hand. No problems engaging and disengaging at the lever. No funny noises. Could this be a bad bearing or bent shaft? How can I... -

Ford 909 cutter slipper clutch
Help! I need to replace the clutch plates on this cutter and I can't get the assembly off the hub. I have removed the snap ring in front of the clutch plates, and according to the ENTIRE sentence in the manual, it should come off. Is there something else I need to remove or is it a matter of...- flyingace

Hydraulic pump rebuilt, but now no pressure
I rebuilt the pump, and it puts out a lot of fluid. More than it did before. But now the lift arms raise a inch or two and stops. I don't think I'm getting pump pressure, even though the pump seems to working as it should. I did remove the lift cover to verify nothing was blocking the return... -

FORD 3000 Hydraulic help
'66 Diesel Symptoms: 1. Very slow warmup. Can take 20-30 minutes of running for hyd fluid to start flowing out of the pump. 2. Lots of air in the system. I installed a valve on the pump and open it to bleed out the air. Once the fluid starts to flow, air can shoot out or it may just bubble... -

Best implement for garden tilling
My wife wants to start a garden. We live on fairly rock soil and want maybe 75'x50' plot. What is the best 3-point implement for turning the soil over in preparation for planting? Are there additional implements I should consider getting? Thanks in advance.- flyingace

PS cylinder removal on 3000
I'm stuck. Is there some trick to getting the back ball-end bolt out of the radius rod? I've loosened the bolt holding it in place, but I can't budge it. Will I need to remove the rear radius rod holder and hammer it out of the RR? I can do that, but I just want to be sure there isn't something... -

Welding equipment or me?
I have a cheap 110 V Chinese Tool Store welder that I call on occasionally to weld something that should be within it's capabilities (limited as they are). It's a flux cored wire feed type. The welds are of course completely worthless. I might as well use superglue. The welding material can be... -

Coolant circulating?
1966 Ford 3000 diesel. Is there a way to tell if the coolant is circulating? I've put in a new thermostat, but the gauge still tells me the engine if overheating. I'm not sure I trust the gauge. The top radiator hose is hot when the engine is running, the lower hose is luke warm or even ambient... -

Problem with mower deck height kit
I just bought a deck height chain kit for my rotary cutter. Problem is, I need to use stabalizer bars with this heavy mower. This leaves no room for the deck height plates on the mower's draw pins. Have others run into this same problem, and if so how did you solve it? Thanks in advance.- flyingace

Lower steering column seal replacement
I have a leak out of the relief valve on the steering housing. I replaced the upper column seal because the manual said that was the cause of that leak. Guess what, didn't help. Now I'm after the lower seal between the control valve and control valve housing. At first, I was just going to... -

Tire problem
I have a '66 3000 with a front tire that keeps going flat. The tire/tubes are new, but the wheel is 46 years old. The tube seems to be getting pinched between the rim and tire bead when the tractor is in use. At least that's where the last hole in the tube was. The recommended tire size is... -

Help removing lift cover Ford 3000
I have all the bolts, the lift rods and rocker assembly removed. The cover lifts about 1/2 inch then stops. It seems like the hangup is on the right side near or around the draft control lever. Any ideas what is hanging this up? Thanks in advance. -

mower, rake and square baler for 40 HP tractor
I'm back to considering buying my own baling equipment. It's just too hard to get somebody to bale smaller acreage when you need it done. I have about 40 PTO HP. so I'm wondering if there are implements (used) that operate at that HP, what makes/models should I look for and what defects are...- flyingace

3000 Hydraulic pump losing prime
This is kind of an update from a prior thread. Air is finding a way into my hydraulic pump. I have replaced all the pump gaskets and o-rings and torqued everything to spec, and I still have to bleed the pump if it sits overnight. Where can this air be coming from? I can't find any leaks in... -

Diesel over-running - throttle?
I have my 3000 diesel apart, so thought I'd pick brains about this while I have better access. I can't seem to control the RPM once the tractor is at opertating temp. It will run at high RPMs even if I put the throttle at idle. I have to put the engine under a load to get the engine to slow... -

Hydraulic Pump = PIA
I just replaced the oil seal in the Hyd pump of my Ford 3000. Now, every time I start the tractor, the lift arms won't lift. If l I bleed the pump, everything is OK. It will continue to work OK as long as I don't let it sit too long. BTW, this is a piston type pump. Is air getting into the... -

Where is the oil going?
I have a Ford 3000 Diesel and it's using oil - fast. I don't think it's going out the exhaust pipe. I just don't see very much white smoke coming out. The motor seems to run well and starts easily. Minimum smoke at startup too. I see no obvious leaks of engine oil and the oil itself is clean...
