1963 Ford 2000 3pt

HAVE AND INDUSTRIAL 2000 FORD TRACTOR THAT 3PT HAS QUITE WORKING. LIFT HAS BEEN
WORKING GOOD, GOT LOW IN FLUID AND STOPPED WORKING. I FILLED TO PROPER FLUID
LEVEL AND LIFT STLL DOES NOT WORK. IS THERE ANYTHING SPECIFIC TO CHECK? HAS HAD
HABIT OF BLOWING FLUID OUT REMOTES FOR NO KNOWN REASON AT RANDOM.

Hi and welcome.

First off... TYPING IN ALL CAPITAL LETTERS is considered yelling and should be avoided so folks don't get offended.

Second... There were two different Ford 2000 tractors, the earlier one had a 4 cylinder engine and the later one had a 3 cylinder engine and you should always specify which yours is when asking questions as they were completely different tractors. Since you say that yours is an industrial model I would assume that it has a 4 cylinder engine, as they did not make any industrial models of the 3 cylinder 2000 series tractor, but I can't be 100% sure as I don't know if it is truly an industrial model or if you are somehow mistaken. If yours has a 3 cylinder engine please let us know.

Going on the assumption that it is a 4 cylinder model... If it ran low on fluid then the pump probably lost its prime. There should be a plug on the pump. There should be a pipe plug on the top of the pump, which is located on the right side of the engine back near the flywheel. When the tractor is running, loosen that plug but don't remove it, until fluid comes out around the plug, if there are air bubbles in the fluid wait until the fluid is clear of bubbles and then tighten the plug back up. Then see if the 3 point lift works.

Sorry about capitals and yes it is 4 cylinder model. As far as yelling, I felt like screaming when lift
quite working. Thanks and I will check pump.

I popped this post open, but when I saw it in all caps I got right back out of it without reading it. Had I read it, I likely would have told you what Sean said.
