Question about serial numbers

[blanckmd]

I purchased a what was supposed to be a Ford 3000 3 cyl. diesel tractor.

It seemed to be leaking fuel so I (like a fool) decided to "fix" it. I took all the sheet metal off and pulled all the wires loose (thinking wrongly that I would remember how they went). I replaced the gasket on the valve cover and sealed the fuel sender, and tightened the fuel valve. Now I am trying to find a wiring diagram but am having trouble identifying the make and model of my tractor.

Every where I look it says that there is 3 lines to the serial number, I can only find two.

Line one: 7D7
Line two: B 836633*

Just for clarification, the B seems to be just a bit smaller than the numbers and the numbers are followed by a five point star like an asterisk.

Any help would be greatly appreciate thank-e

I hope this helps you somewhat. Go to this website TractorData.com - information on all makes and models of tractors Go to Ford, then 3000. There is a section on serial numbers at the end. Best wishes.

Yes, I have looked at this page, it is where I found out where to look for the serial number on the tractor, however there really is not a discussion on Ford serial numbers there. Another place I visited insisted that there were three lines involved but I only have two as mentioned in my original post.

Thank ee

Hopefully someone else can help.

Post your question in the Ford tractor section where Soundguy is sure to see. He should be able to give the correct answer if anyone can.

Not sure just exactly where you are talking about. Looked about for a "ford section" without success. I will continue to look.

Thank you.

That would be a good Idea Thanks....I also found his profile and sent an email. I will wait to post on the F/NH tread for awhile to see if the email is answered or not.

Thank you
