Ok I’ve had a car with a blown head gasket before but this is use has me scratching my head some. A while ago I had issue with what I thought was blow by but now I’m thinking maybe that issue may be related to this new one. I am losing coolant first of all. I have filled it and checked after...

So have a couple questions or maybe a few. The manual says the seat will tilt forward but can稚 find a way to do so. You know to keep rain off seat. Next the seat itself. What is the little knob at bottom of seat? Suppose it moves seat up and down in height. Which way does which? I need it...

As I fix one thing another breaks. Lol. I laugh only because I want to cry. Ha! So got valve cover gasket replaced. Went and started the old ford and no more top end leaks. Great! Well then fluid starts pouring out the front end. Ugh now what? Take trill cover off and first there is a nest on...

Ok this may or may not go here but i am looking for some advice. We bought some acreage and looking to take about 5-10 or so and put 2-3 beef cattle on in the next few years. Last year the field was under corn and it was late before it was harvested so it did not give much time to doing...

Bought some LED off road lights that i am putting on the tractor. The rear does not have any as the lights have been broken off and the wiring has been cut. :laughing: Should be a nice change from the barely able to see 2 feet in front of you with the old headlights. HA! The wife asked why i...

I have the IT manual and owner's manual but i cannot find where there is an exploded view of the rear remote hook ups. Do they make a rebuild kit for them as all i have been able to find are new ones which i do not need. Mine are leaking some when i have the hydraulics attached. Suspect o...

Ok This is a new to me tractor and it has done well other than some quirks that i have fixed, am fixing or will fix. However i have a large issue and want to know what (if anything) i can do to remediate for now until we have the tie to rebuild the engine. Running normally and with normal...

I did a search and cannot find anything about this so here it goes. I have an old, really old JD van blunt grain drill. It has seen better days and the fert box is toast. The seed box and the grass box are ok and everything with those seem to work and it has the grain tubes in tact, the grass...

Have a fuel leak in the fuel filter area (suspect last owner did not seat o rings properly) and in injection pump I think. When it sits it leaks fuel and since I only use the tractor once a week it leaks quite a bit. I tried to use the shut off valve going to the tank to try and stop it but I...

Have a Ford 3600. Had issue with lift this weekend. Seemed to be ok first part of day but put bush hog on and it would not lift. Suspect it is a pressure issue and plan to change fluid and filter. Have some questions. I have the IT manual but it is a little vague. Empty it takes 6 gallons (24...

1. What is the best manual for the 3600? I have IT service manual but not a huge fan of it. Does the operators manual have lubrication points and such? 2. This morning I checked the hydraulic fluid in transmission and it was milky. However after I ran it today it seemed like normal. Normal...

So i have a new to me Ford 3600. It "had" a stabilization bar on the PTO links,i think. Looking at images online that is what it looked like. I want to go one step up and add better stabilization bars to it. I'm new to tractors and wondered what is recommended?

Hello all. Just picked up our first tractor . An 81 (i think have not grabbed the SN yet) ford 3600. Solid running but needs a bit of work that i will get to over time. You know the standard replace parts that have never been changed since purchased new like tie rod ends and all that fun stuff...
