MY TC40D is now almost 12 years old. Over the last couple of years something has been changing in that the fan has begun to hit the radiator plastic shroud. Can't really seem to see what may be causing it as either the engine/fan would have had to have moved or the radiator moved. Both are...

One of my steps has broken of for the second time now. The repair last time was extremely difficult due to the "out of position" weld that had to be done. I'm wondering if anyone has pulled their platform, and if so, was it very difficult or first required removal of loads of other...

I have a very old 6' International (commercial/industrial) rear 3-pt blade in need of a new cutting edge. The existing edge is a single (cannot be flipped) as the holes are offset significanlty toward the top edge of the cutting edge and the entire piece sits in sort of a detent in the...

Would others agree that it would be nice if there was a "Forum Jump" window not only at the bottom-right of most forums, but also at the top. Or, simply relocate the existing one to the top. Often, I see all the threads I'm interested in and am ready to jump to the next, but are forced to...

Without getting into DCAs and a comprehensive diesel-specific coolant discussion, does anyone know if you can use the newer gold fluid in place of the traditional green stuff in our newer TC-series tractors. I'm pretty sure the orange stuff is defineately off-limits, but I thougth the gold can...

I'm on my second replacment light for my TC-40D as I've again caught it on some low-hanging branches. At least this time I can salvage the light case, but not the orange and orange/red lens. Apparently the light is a Speaker model 295, but I can't find anyplace to buy it other than the dealer...

No I'm not refering to the weather or the Angels or the Good Lord weeping! My problem is that I've got a small leak of hydraulic fluid coming from high up on the hydro transmission on my TC-40D. When I park the tractor after an hour or so of useage, I get several drips/a very small puddle...

During this past ice-storm, I had plenty of opportunity to use my 13 kW PTO generator, with somewhat mixed and disappointing results. In the past I've powered the entire house including about 22,000 BTU of air conditioning, a freezer, 2 refrigerators, washer, electric drier, microwave, etc with...

Has anyone else noted the sporadically slow times to load even the home page? Specific forums sometimes are even slower. Sometimes I just quit and leave the site altogether and when I do so, others site instantanly load, so I know it's not my PC or our T1 connection.

Mike, <font color="blue">(MikePA)</font> you (rightfully so) killed my post, or should I say, put the final nail in - as others shot it up so badly it was unrecognizable. And this, a second time, for the same thing was done a while ago on my previous post on the same subject. </font><font...

What has happened to Amsoils fluid. GSX posted in my previous post: </font><font color="blue" class="small">( By looking on Amsoil's new website today.... AMSOIL Synthetic Tractor Hydraulic/Transmission Oil is recommended for the replacement of, but not limited to, the following oils: ARCO...

For all Ford and NH Tractor Owners with the infamous leaking block! I put up with it for years on my Ford 1720 and for almost 4 on my TC 40D. I tried several fixes, including new plugs, teflon tape, blue silicone sealant, pipe dope, etc, all to no avail. ...But, I think I've got it by-golly...

See the note below in response to my original question to Amsoil. I was ready to jump on the Amsoil bandwagon when I change my fluid soon, but desire to have better low temperature operation that would be provide by Super-UDT or M2C200. ... back to the drawing board...

Does anyone know if Kubota's Super UDT meets NH's F200 spec? I know TSC's UTF does not say theirs does. Is super UDT really pure synthetic or a blend? How about F200?

I have an old Fergeson Sherman 14A plow that I thought was a two-bottom 14" plow. However, my cousin did a measurement and although the cutting edge for each moldboard is about 15" long, it certainly will not cut two paths each that wide, because of the angle. It looks like q path of about 12"...

Anyone blown the starting circuit fuse? This weekend, had the daughter operating the TC 40D while we were moving some firewood around with the utility wagon and couldn't get the tractor to start after she hauled the last load. Starter switch would turn on and all the dash indicating lights...

Just happened to be inspecting a few things on my TC 40D boomer and noticed the connection of the "red" power cable at the starter, which is covered by a red terminal protecting boot, is all corroded. Not sure why, other than some water or just moisture may be held in by the boot and causes the...

Y'all, just wanted to relay that the fix for a sticking 3 pt adjusting lever is really easy. Took me all of 10 minutes. Just as others have posted, but I couldn't find, all you have to do is remove the cotter pin, loosen the nut that cinches down on the shaft where it enteres the tractor...

Just looked at a red 6 ft tiller at the local TSC store. Had TSC labelling all over it but only the TSC tag had a little "KK" written in the corner. Construction of the tiller looked much more finished than the yellow-orange KK 5 ft units also at TSC. The metal prep and paint looked like it...

Although the chains have been called by a number of different names and satisfy a few different purposes, for now I'll call 'em "check" chains and my feeling is they're essential. The reason I'm posting this is that I feel strongly enough about this setup, and find so few use it, that I want to...

I'm suffering tractor withdrawal. Took my 40D in back in January for the 50 hr service and to take care of the leaking battery and coolant drain fititng leak. That was over a month ago and still haven't got it back. The new radiator and block fitting are on back order with no schedule for...

For those that have a hydraulic top link, does the control valve result in a "position" or just merely move the piston in and out? Also, does the piston stay put once moved to a particular spot or can it move in or out based on the load on it?

I've noticed a very slight popping when I turn right on my 40D. The further the wheels are turned to the right when I start, the more noticeable it is. It is most noticeable when standing still or moving very slightly. One time the steering even stuck for a second. Has anyone encounted the same?

Well, I thought I was going to stay immune to the problem of battery leaking/overflow, but alas, not. Checked under the hood yesterday only to find the radiator, some hydraulic hose fititngs, and other metal parts corroded due to fluid from the battery. Checked the battery and the fluid seems...

I am continuing to have a great deal of trouble connecting my Woods RM-306 mower drive shaft to the PTO of my new TC 40D. The splines are always just a few degrees off. Neither part has much movement. The tractor PTO is virtually impossible to turn by hand and turning the mower drive shaft is...

What can anyone tell me about a Ford Jubilee? I think they came out after the 8 and 9N and before the 600-900 series. A neighbor of mine used to have one but sold it before I could seriously consider its purchase. Anyone know the HP, years of production, and what features it had above the 8 &...

I got my 40D in January and already there's a couple of spots of the blue deck area where the paint peeled off of the bottom. Looking at the bottom of the area where your feet rest and where the pedals attach, it looks as if the paint was put on over metal that was starting to develop a rusty...
