    Ford 2600 tractor stuck clutch.

    There is no inspection plate for access,and i tried clamping the clutch pedal down and jerking it with another tractor but that did not work. Guess i will have to split it in half and fix. Many thanks to all that replied.

    Case 580C Backhoe Transmission Forward-Reverse REVERSAL after Lucas Transmission Fix

    580 C has a mechanical trans and no electric modules. And it should have a borg warner reverser, which is a self contained unit. I would check the fluid level and if its ok check the pressure relief valve,sometimes they stick. but the lucas should have taken care of that. Check the linkage to...

    slow fork drop

    Thanks TD24. I checked the linkage to the controll valve and it had a lot of rust in the joints. I sprayed every thing up with CRC and ran it up and down a few times with weight on the forks and it started working faster. The more i use it the better it gets. I think its almost there. Thanks again.

    slow fork drop

    I purchased a 1985 Clark C500 forklift with 107 hours on it. everything works great except the mast goes up fast but drops too slow. I put penetrating oil on the rollers and put a heavy pallet of pavers on the forks and ran it up and down,but it did not come down any faster. Any one out there...

    JD 555A one way steer

    Any one know how to tell what year a John Deere 555 is by the serial number? I have searched the internet for this info and it is very confusing. They say that 1976-1982 is a 555 and 1983 & 1984 are 555A. The serial number on the tool box plate is stamped 555C- 343212T on my machine. Any one...

    TL130 Fuel Stop Solenoid

    That happened to me once, when i tried running a direct line. I must have wired direct about 2 dozen times just to move the machine out of the way. But it only fried the solenoid one time. I can'nt figure out why it did it. Now i am afraid to wire direct. Lucky for me i had an old injection pump...

    JD 555A one way steer

    Yes they do both travel about half way down when they disengage. When the machine is cold it does'nt steer to bad. but after it warms up it gets worse.

    JD 555A one way steer

    I had it running today,and checked the steering clutchs . when machine is in gear and you push both pedals half way down the machine stops moving and it does'nt seem to pull the engine down. so i am thinking the brake is glazed. any way of checking that ?
