Great info thanks, I’ll have at it with a hammer this weekend 👍😁

Thanks PTSG 👍

Back to the continuing story of the Pasquali rototiller restoration for my tractor. I now have power from the tractor drive to the rototiller but the tines won’t turn. This is maybe not that surprising since the machine had been an ornament in a flower garden for 18 years and I was maybe a tad...

hello, sorry to display my complete ignorance on this subject, but does anyone know how to dismantle the shaft joint below. I’m currently trying to renovate a very rusty old pasquali tractor rotavator attachment which has been lieing around in a flower bed in Spain for about 18 years. The...

Thanks TractorTech. The gear box is packed with grease rather than oil but you’ve saved me an age with your expertise on the box setup. All I need to do now is clean up the linkage to the tractor which is badly rusted (we’re talking solid not surface) which I’m soaking in vinegar and it’s all...

So, I’ve got a Pasquali 986 tractor and I’ve found a rotavator for it. That’s the good news of course, the not so good news being the rotavator attachment has been lying in a field for at least 15 years. I’m trying to take it to bits and renovate it but the blades don’t turn so I need to take...

So is the situation that a new clutch would have the clutch linkage/wire tight so the clutch has some adjustment on it and releasing the clutch is less strenuous? Which would mean adjusting/slackening/lengthening the cable would push the clutch plates closer together, assuming there is some...

Do you ever feel like everything on your tractor is going wrong at the same time? Well I’ve had 2 problems this week! The second one is I think the clutch is slipping, by which I mean when I let the clutch out the gears don’t mesh immediately- nothing happens at first and then once the engine...

Anyone any suggestions for curing really “REALLY” stiff steering on my Pasquali It has got manual steering so it’s always been a bit of a beast to steer, but recently I seem to have to really haul the wheel to steer and turning when stationery is just a no go! ive checked the oil in the...

The fuel filter is indeed in the tank, but apart from emptying the fuel tank it's a dead easy swap. The problem turned out to be an air leak on the high pressure fuel line. I got a replacement from the parts dealers reccomended by ptsg on my original posting, but you might want to take off the...

Thanks ptsg I'll give that a go and let you know the results (y)

Not quite sure if this is the right forum for this question, but I'm looking to change the exhaust on my Pasquali 986 for a non-standard quieter one. It's working fine with the current exhaust but it's very (that's very) noisy so I was wondering if it would help if I put a different exhaust on...

Thanks again for all your help with this. I got the mini beast up and running again with a new fuel line and a new filter and it's as good as new :)

Thanks again ptsg, I've managed to find another supplier in Spain, obviously before I read your message. The problem was with one of the connections. I suspect (no proof) that a mechanic I had looking at it might have damaged it trying to bleed the system? Anyhow, I've also ordered a new fuel...

I've got a tiller, and a flail mower that came with it as well as a towing ball that fits, so I just use a standard trailer. The situation with the air in fuel problem isn't good though as I can't find a supplier for the steel pipe from the diesel pump to the injector. Do you happen to know...

Very true and this particular model is also very fond of falling over on fairly gentle inclines. The good news though is that our place if totally flat and it's perfect for running around between the olive trees with what the locals call a fresa (nothing to do with strawberries). I don't know...

What can I say, you were spot on it was an air leak on the union of the pipe from the fuel pump to the fuel injector. Many thanks :)

Thanks ptsg, The engine turns over but doesn't catch if you get my meaning. I tried a bit of instant start sprayed into the air filter and it fired, but stops again. It does get fuel to the nut on the connection to the injector, but since the line from the tank to the pump is just a bit of...

I've got a Pasquali 986 which is used a couple of times a week and hasn't been any problem "up to now". Now however it's just not starting. It was bought in Spain and has seen a lot of use with half the lighting controls and some of the levers doing nothing, I guess as successive owners have...
