Here ya go!

One other thing I found in regards to the fuel filter, the part # that was on the old filter is not the same as the new one I got from the dealer. They are identical in size and fit with the only thing I had to do was change the bottom water outlet valve from my old one to the new one. The new...

Wow and I was mulling over the $300 in fluid lol.

Just did the 50 hour service this past weekend. Totally Do-able. Ordered my filters online beforehand and actually changed the fluid at this time. Found the hyd. spin on filter on ebay for much less than the dealer, also the engine oil filter cross references to a Wix 51324 FYI. Decided to...

The braided wire solution I use has not given me any issues so far. It uses the same screw hole on the tank side, but on the cap side I drilled a hole and put a machine screw with nut on the inside of the cap. So if brush snags the wire at least the new components are stout enough to not launch...

Sure can. I'll grab some pictures after work and post them. I agree the strap is flimsy and the way it hangs off the side makes it easy to snag on anything. The way I've done the wire is where I can actually spin it so it rests flat against the tank.

Brought mine into the dealer and fixed the leak. Pinched O-ring. The latest thing was the PTO safety switch sheared itself from the two mounting bolts while I was thrashing through some ungodly big muscadine vines and scrub. Patched it up and in the same day lost my fuel cap! one of those vines...

Confederate, Sorry know this post is a little old but curious where that hydraulic leak you found was located? I just picked mine up and put two hours on so far bushogging and have found a leak on a tubing fitting just behind the starter. Roughly chasing the line down, I believe it goes to the...

10/4 and it can be changed without removing top cover? This is my first tractor I've owned, sorry for the newbie questions.

It is all the way down. But still same symptoms regardless of draft control position.

1979 ford 3600, recently purchased and have noticed the rear lift is either all the way up or all the way down when the lever is engaged. Has both levers for draft control and lift control. With implement on the ground, lift does not engage until the lever is almost to the 2,3 position and when...

Thanks for the reply. I found the same exact conclusion about parts and trouble finding things, ended up passing for a Ford 3600.

Hinomoto e232, unknown year. Interested in purchasing and checked it out. Mostly operational and drives fine only issue is the Lever to engage PTO is stuck in neutral. No matter how much finesse is applied just does not budge. PTO shaft spins freely and will free spin when engine is turning over...
