Tractor Won't Start (All wires accounted for...been there, done that)

Hi JC!!
I have a TC33DA...right below my name. Thanks!!

it's always still good to mention what you are working on though.. even though you have a tractor listed there.. you might also have others... gets everybody on the same page when al the info is inthe header or body of the message spelled out clearly.

All,

Any other ideas on the squealing? It doesn't happen at idle but when I move forward or backwards. Using the FEL or PTOs don't cause an issue either.

Grease the front driveshaft shield. 20 pumps in the zerk halfway up the shield tubing.

Thanks Rick!! I'll do that and share the results once complete.

Ok, where do I send the check? You guys are AWESOME!! My first problem was a dirty fuel filter (shame on me) and when I changed it, I forget to bleed the system. I did that this afternoon and less than 5 mins after I popped the hood, I was up and running again. I will be out of town for the next 7 days, so I didn't have a chance to address the squeal. . . . decided I should probably spend some time with my wife instead. I just really wanted to get my tractor out of the rain and back in the barn.

So, next weekend, I will tackle the squeal....which I verified only happens when moving forward or reverse and NOT while idling. Thanks again for everyone's feedback and expertise. It is greatly appreciated!!

Does it squeal in 2wd and 4 wd?

Hi DQ!!
I don't think I tried 4WD. I am out of town on business till next Friday, so hope to get to it then. I will be sure to post an update once done. Thanks!!

check your hydraulic oil level.
how many hours do you have on her it may be time for a change..

After a few trips overseas, I finally got a chance to work on my tractor today. I checked all fluids and no issues. I did find a couple of grease points that I missed during the last service. Needless to say, those were the points that was causing the issue. Once lubed, no more squeal!! Thanks again for all of your suggestions!!
