I bought a used Post Hole digger this weekend. It is super stout and everything works even though it has some rust and age. I was really pumped about digging my first hole and started to hook it up to the tracker. This thing is a beat to try to get on the tractor. I ended up liftiing the...

The other day we were using the tractor (Ford 4000 3 cylinder diesel) and it bogged down and cut off when we were on a hill. We figured fuel got too low and sucked in air. We bled all the fuel lines, etc, but think we fried the starter in the process because it started making a terrible clicking...

Folks, What all is involved when changing the electrical system polarity? I understand that the starter motor doesn’t care. What about generator , regulator, and coil?? Thanks, Knots

If you converted a 6 volt positive ground system to negative ground, would the starter motor run backwards? If positive ground, should the feed wire to the coil attach to the negative post and the positive coil terminal attach to the distributor? Or does any of this matter? Thanks, Knots

So as part of owning my Escape I get points for any work done by Ford. Somehow I've garnered enough to give me $100 discount on Sirius. In order to get the benefit I have to agree to 56 pages of CYA ford crap legal stuff! Now I usually try to read the boilerplate crap I'm going to sign...

Hey Folks, first post here! I have a 1970 Ford 3000 Gas. I recently split the tractor and flipped the ring gear due to damage from the bendix beating on the teeth several times when starting, due to it not engaging. Once it does engage, it cranks fine. Now that it's flipped, I thought it would...

Hi and again, thanks in advance, The three point lifts and operates almost as should, but as soon as I turn the tractor off, the three point lowers to the ground with the lever in the up position. There's a trim mower on the back at the moment and it never did this. I'm thinking there might be...

Troubleshooting main/loader hydraulics on 2120. Pressure should be around 2500. Did pressure test with gauge and pressure shoots up to about 2000 for a second, and then settles down to 1200 after 2-3 seconds. What would cause this? Weak pump, or internal leak in one of the cylinders or in the...

Hi! I have an old Ford 1700. Recently, the control arm for the 3pt lift has been "slipping" up. Messing around with it, it goes down with resistance, but when I pull on it, it moves pretty easily, which means if you hit a bump, it will lift the 3pt arms, which makes grading really annoying...

Ford 555B Loader Backhoe takes a long time to get moving. If anyone has answers that'd be cool. If the tractor is cold, even when put into forward, and with the rpms raised (or not, doesn't matter).. doesn't move. I've watched my father sit on this thing for 10 or 15 mins waiting on it to...

I have have a decently big problem on my hands. I checked my front axle oil and there wasn’t a drop of oil in it. That has probably been running like that for a while. For the people who know these tractors where could these axles leak? Seems to be just wet by the drain plug? What oil is a good...

HI all, Got a 1969 Ford 3000 diesel. One of the bleeder "bolts" on the fuel filter bracket stripped out the threads on the housing. I can tap this out to a 3/8-24 but do I need a special bolt with holes in it for the bleeder to work ok? For now I am just going to add a 1/2 inch 3/8-24 bolt so...
