    Correct. Original equipment is a generator but mine is converted to alternator. Electricity is only needed to recharge the battery after starting

    The 135 diesel is the best tractor ever made. If you have use for a tractor hang on to it. If you don’t you will have no problem selling it

    The 135 is a Perkins AD3.162 diesel Still got the sheet metal. Tank was painted when I replaced the clutch in 2004. Probably gonna sell it once I shake down the 165 and am comfortable I have ironed any issues

    You can improve your tractor’s traction by filling the rear tires with a water/antifreeze solution

    For parts diagrams and OEM parts numbers, and parts go to Messick’s.com. I use the exploded diagrams and parts numbers a lot for my 1968 Ford 4000 diesel

    Ford 4000 hydraulic leak

    I have done that but that doesn’t mean it’s not sticking. Today it started leaking from the top side where it goes into the flow control valve and stopped coming from the lower side. Looks like the lift cover is going to come off, flow control valve coming out and I am going to replace the tube

    Try messick’s for parts diagrams and OEM part numbers. They also have new old stock, but they are the most expensive place in the country to buy from.

    Ford 4000 hydraulic leak

    Tube has not been damaged. There is a groove cut in the tube for the o ring so adding a second would not work. Possibly a thicker one would though. I did use new old stock (expensive) o ring and am confident that the 2 I have tried are correct. I do have a new old stock tube and o rings. I am...

    Steady drip a little faster than a leaky faucet. Not manageable when you depend on hydraulics to operate

    Ford 4000 hydraulic leak

    1968 model diesel 3 cyl with independent pto. I have a leak of where the tube exits the pump housing to be flow control valve. I have replaced the o ring 2 times with no stoppage of the leak. What might be causing this issue? Would a bad pressure relief valve cause this?

    Help with diesel tractor engine miss

    Could be as half the tag is illegible, however, the 0190 is distinct and then some of the tag color is there. That dark stripe before the color starts appears to have nothing behind the 0190 stamp, which is quite visible. Below the 0190 in the stripe a 7 is stamped. Engine number is...
