newbie questions MF135 ad152

Hi, I ahve been tring to get my hands on Dean's CD without success.
Is there any chance you could email the files on it to me to justin@commtech.ie please
Thanks

I have a 1964 MF-135 diesel that I bought in Jul06 and have been pecking away at a refurbishment ever since. It's a standard 135 set up to squat low for mowing and discing work in the olive orchards around here.

I checked my info that I got from Big Dean Austin, an expert on MF tractors of that vintage. Unfortunately his AOL website is gone and Dean isn't in the best of health.

However, I do have Big Dean's servicing CD. Here's what he says about leaks in the front of the engine.

Don't know if this will help. Let me know if you need more info and I'll try to dig some up.

My 135 has an oil leak somewhere in the front of the engine. I guess I'll have to drop the oil pan to troubleshoot the problem. Not looking forward to that job since that "pan" is a steel casting that weighs a ton.
