Rough Running Massey

[ark_team_roper]

FYI If you have an older Massey and it starts and runs for about 10 min and then loses RPM (power), and then you can immediately start it again and it runs another 10 min. perfectly, try checking the rubber ferrules on the ends of all the fuel lines. I had a tractor with this problem and I replaced all of the rubber ferrules on all of the fuel lines. The dealer told me that you have to put these ferrules on the end of your line and then stick the line in the hole and tighten the nut. Whatever you do, don't stick the ferrules up in the hole and jam the line in behind it. This will cut off your fuel. (I had 3 done this way when I checked mine) Also, after a while, these ferrules will start break down. I had a couple that looked like they were cut-up. The rubber was no doubt in my lines. These ferrules are only like .50 a piece so it is pretty cheap considering the price of things today. Just something I figured out and would like to pass on. Happy Tractoring!!!!!!!

I had a similar problem on a 2002 NH7610s

It has metal fuel lines with 'permanent' pressed in bulges that are similar to ferrels. You use an oring on the end of the line.. stick that int he hole.. then tightent he packing nut..the nut presses against the bulge int he line which squeezes the oring againstt he back o fthe fuel fitting. I had to remove lines to blow them out and crushed the oring.. new repalcemnet ings lasted a month... dealer gave me plainrubber ones.. I went and bought a variety kit of the nitrile / buna-n orings.. holding so far at 4 weeks. very very aggrivating....
