    Bleeding fuel system in JD 2355

    So this morning I replaced the fuel filter on my John Deere 2355. Clipped in the new filter, loosened bleed screw, manually pumped the lever at the fuel filter until the air was mostly gone (couldn't quite get the bubble at the very top center since the bleed screw is on the right side)...

    JD 2355 - won't reverse (until it does...)

    I've started having a shifting issue on my 1988 JD 2355, when I try to put it in reverse, it feels more like neutral (can't feel the gear through the gear shift) and about 95% of the time it won't back up. Both forward ranges and forward gears all work fine. It has a cab, so getting a good look...

Started...

    JD 2355 checkup.

    Included with the farm I purchased was a JD 2355 (1993 vintage). It has less than 1,500 hours on it. I changed the oil and have monitored the hydraulic fluid (wow, that stuff is tough to see on the dipstick). It has been running well. I've noticed some fluid weeping on the engine, but not...
