    Fusible Link

    JD4410 was running fine until I turned it off and went to restart it. There was a millisecond of electric power then everything was dead. No lights, no nothing. The battery is good, terminals clean and tight, and 12.6 volts at the positive battery cable where it connects to the starter...

    John Deere 855/856 hard starting

    I had an 855 some years ago. It ran good but got hard to start in the cold weather (Virginia) with the air heater working properly. I installed a block heater and with some preheat it started OK in the cold. But, it became progressively worse and in a couple of years it wouldn't start, even...

    4410 Steering Wheel Tilt Fix

    Grainguy, Since it's been over two years ago, I can't swear to it, but I believe I left them in. I think you can see part 33 in the picture just above the hose clamp.

    Slow Leak of Filled Tire

    All good ideas. I didn't know there was such a thing as a filled tire sealant. That's what is great about this site!

    Slow Leak of Filled Tire

    I have a JD 4410 with a slow leak in the left rear tire that needs to be aired up every week and a half or two. It is a tubeless turf tire that's filled and I see no fluid leaking. I replaced the valve core and it made no difference. The tire/wheel weighs over 700 Lbs so I don't want to take...

    What kind of vintage car do you wish you had?

    I think there is a company or person that sells an air conditioner kit for Model A's. The coil goes under the car toward the rear. Standard horsepower is 40. A high compression head (from standard 4.1 to 5.5 or 6.1) and a touring cam will up the horsepower into the 50's. The standard coupes...

    What kind of vintage car do you wish you had?

    Bought this fully restored a little over a year ago. It's 92 years old and runs great. Joined the local Model A club which has a wealth of knowledge, really nice and interesting people, and a stock of specialty tools to loan. The club does tours where 6 to 10 cars drive to points of interest...

    4410 Steering Wheel Tilt Fix

    I have a new to me 4410 with the tilt steering adjustment lever jammed in one position, but the tractor steers fine. The steering shaft angle is movable through part of its range. I followed the service manual instructions to remove the unit, but when I try to remove the control panel...

    Loader  Chain Grab Hooks

    I want to add chain grab hooks to the top of my bucket. I don't have a welder. Are the bolt on hooks OK or should I have a welder install the hooks?

    4410 Hour meter

    I just bought a used 4410. It has 570.0+ hours. The hour meter read this the first time I looked at it. The next time I looked, the center digit was missing and continues to be missing, but the blank space is there. It reads 5 0.0. The tenths digit is moving and I expect the 100's digit...

    New Yard Hydrant

    I want to install a new yard hydrant about 100 yards west of my house. Presently, my well with submerged pump is about 30 yards west of my house and runs to the house where the pressure tank, pressure and sensing switch are located. I have two hose bibs at the house and they take water after...

    John Deere 4300 hydrostatic won't move tractor

    The neighbor has a John Deere 4300 and was using a 3 point PTO driven stump grinder. No big event or noise, but at some point the the tractor would not move forward or back and the rear PTO stopped. The 3 point still works as does the front end loader. The PTO shaft does not turn by hand...
