most of these tractors have similar function controls ask what you need to maybe we can help you. no hurt to ask, please do not be vague.
I looked it up and it holds 2.4 gal of hydro fluid with no loader. Just in case you did not know. If you put in a new pump and that tractor I believe is a common sump there is not a lot that can go wrong . If there is fluid over the pick up and it is clean ,and you verified that the pump is powered . Have you checked the filter screen , it might be on the outside of the tractor in a tube. As best as I know these systems should be self purging as far as air goes. But look there it should be full of oil. If not maybe it has to much air in the system and need bleeding . It kinda takes me back to the pump not working or powered.
Bob my 96 dodge cummins uses a heater manifold ( that has been trouble free) why have the other diesels still use the glow plugs, I heard that the cummins that Nissan titan truck has a ceramic glow plugs that supposedly last the life of the engine. but why use them?
good going on the truck, I have never done glow plugs on a 6.5 just heard nightmare stories that might have been blown out of proportion . And those hooks are a very good addition.
I guess it was the pick up, started and stopped many times today and all worked well , it seems that the hour meter in the new gauge cluster works better than the old one. It will advance time at a idle while the old one needed more rpm to advance the clock, but who knows, it has been strange since new. reminds me of a texas instrument calculator I had at time that would mess up rarely , so it took forever to figure out why balancing the check book I keep getting infrequent errors.
Got in a new pick up , when I parked the tractor tach was not working ( it was 40 ish outside), started up tractor to put in barn to replace sensor,( like 19) tach worked ,shut off tractor ,then restarted tractor tach worked , put in barn shut off then thought try a restart,tach no work put in new pick up tach has worked since. and yes I have tried to find a high resistance joint in harness with no luck. Damn strange we shall see
if it was low on fluid and you added some it could be air in the system, but you need to find out if your tractor is a common sump system or a system with separate pumps, also with the cold if you are using fluid that is to high in viscosity it will make it seem like it but the oil is just to heavy to circulate properly. like universal tractor fluid is to heavy in winter for steering system.
I have a 2006 series 40 foton ft504a and the console is the same color and the gauge cluster is the same shape tires look like the same size, but mine has a quanchi 495 engine. all I have is a parts book . I would get the code # off the tag and manf. date, call around and see if it looks familiar to anyone. the people it Asian tractor parts have been helpful and I think in Ontario. ph# 905-765-0110. But anyone who is willing, take there help and throw them a bit of business.
