Hi all, new to this forum and to these old tractors, I have done some extensive research on them though. heres what I have.
its a 1959 TO-35 or MF-35 with the 23c Diesel. I have the individual glow plugs and the flame heater plug.
When I got the tractor the original glow plugs were all bad and the owner was starting it on fluid. I replaced the plugs with parallel wired 12v ones, changed the oil and replaced leaking seals on the top cap of the fuel pump. 20s of heat and it fired right up in about 5c weather.
Now its about 25-30c out and It will barely start. fluid is zero help. I basically turn it over for a good 2 min with the heat to get it going, tons of black smoke that dissapears after idling a little.
It also bogs down and pours black smoke when under a heavy load, It will stall in 1st high if I quickly release the clutch at low throttle. There is also white smoke coming from the breather/blowby tube on the exhaust side of the engine, and none coming out of the exhaust.
I'm not sure where to start, fuel lift pump? fuel pump? injectors? or am i looking at a rebuild?
