I have a MF 65 (MK II), which I bought at the right price, and the hydraulic lift control lever (lever nearest seat) is stuck solid. The draft lever is working fine. This tractor was left-up for 15 years almost, outside in the lovely rainy Irish weather. So, how am i going to solve this? I have the lift cover off the tractor, and am just a little cautious about going near these levers, as i dont want to break anything! P.S: WD40 aint doing it no good. Anyone got any other ideas? :)

I have already had 1 flat front tire that broke the valve stem. Had that fixed. Was doing some bush hogging today and had a loose limb pop up under the tractor and break all the blades off the hydro cooling fan and break the tach cable were it turns under the frame. Got the fan ordered through my dealer but wanted to know if there is anywhere to order parts online without having to go through my local dealer?
I am going to try to fix the tach cable but will probably need to order one of those as well.
2nd question, what should my idle speed be? right now it's about 1200rpm, seems high but this is my first tractor and diesel.
3rd ??, should something be sqeeling when I try to ease my bush hog up just an inch or 2, it doesn't happen if I'm pulling it all the way up.
How much can be done on the tractor with a broken hydro cooling fan? Thanks for any help...I've only got 7.7 hours on it right now. ]]> Massey Ferguson Owning/Operating ccuser http://www.tractorbynet.com/forums/massey-ferguson-owning-operating/157162-new-b-questions.html Adding rear hydraulics to GC2400 http://www.tractorbynet.com/forums/massey-ferguson-owning-operating/157144-adding-rear-hydraulics-gc2400.html Wed, 11 Nov 2009 00:34:00 GMT I'm looking into adding rear hydraulics to the rear of my GC2400 so I can operate a snowblower with hydraulics instead of hand crank.

The fellow I bought it from had already broken it down ready to rebuild it. Obviously, I bought it in several hundred peices.

It came with a new rebuild kit including new pistons, sleeves, rings, rod and main bearings, and gaskets. It looks like the crank is going to need to be turned so I will have to buy new bearings.

He actually started to rebuild it and broke one of the sleeves. He decided to stop there.

My question is other the the I & T Shop manual, is there any literature or even better, pictures and/or video of a 3 cyl Perkins Gas being rebuilt anywhere? I have found a lot on the diesel but no the gas. Is the gas burner a lemon?

This tractor is in very good shape and I got a very good deal on it. I've already been offered more for it at a salvage yard than I paid for it. ]]> Massey Ferguson Owning/Operating fishingbucks http://www.tractorbynet.com/forums/massey-ferguson-owning-operating/157080-massey-ferguson-135-perkins-gas.html blew hydralic hose http://www.tractorbynet.com/forums/massey-ferguson-owning-operating/157069-blew-hydralic-hose.html Tue, 10 Nov 2009 02:05:22 GMT was out digging stones[ boulders] from my trails and had the loader almost down when poof the hose blew covering my tractor and cab windows etc with hydralic oil.I was about 1/2 mile from home so once I figured out that it was the loader arms hose that blew I was able to tilt the bucket to lift the arms up a bit and back all the way home.Went into town and had a new one made up and before it got dark and too cold I was able to wash everthing off.At least the spray was directed away from me so that was a good thing.
