Have just replaced the oil seal on the PTO shaft, and although I can get the shaft to engage on the splines th front end side of the pump, it will not go home by about 1 inch. Have tried rotating the shaft and engage each and every spline, with no difference
Any ideas?
The tractor has a reduction box, but I can't see that making any difference.
Hope someone has the answer.
Viv

Viv,
I am just about to do the same job. Do you happen to have the number of the seal handy?
Thanks,
Jim

I have a hazy recollection that one of the reduction boxes that was available for the TE offered 'live' PTO as a benefit - if that is the case it is possible that the problem you have is that the PTO shaft is not engaging with the gear in the reduction box.

To get round this, you might try engaging/disengaging the reduction box and rotating the shaft to see if you can get it to 'connect' with the splined hole in the reduction box gear. Rocking the tractor in gear with the reduction box engaged might also help.

That's about all I can offer, sorry if it doesn't help much, but I have never worked on a TE with reduction box.

Just had another thought - you could try posting your question on the Friends of Ferguson heritage website here in the UK at www.fofh.co.uk - someone else here in the UK may be able to give more help, or may have come across the same problem if no-one here has.

Thanks for that.

You wont believe this, but i tried it again just after I posted the question, and what do you think happened?
It went in no trouble at all. Just goes to prove that the discussion group works!!
Cheers!
Now the next question is how do I get my FE35 Diesel to fire up first time?
This will really test the value of the discussion group!!!

Thanks a lot

Viv

Ok, here's a trick I learned for persuading reluctant diesels to start. Light an old fashioned paraffin blowlamp, and let it get hot - then extinguish the flame, and direct the warm paraffin vapour into the inlet manifold while cranking the engine over.

Works every time, and the engines don't develop a 'cocaine' habit.

Glad you got the shaft back in - must have been the 'threat value' of the forum.

Hello Viv -

If your FE35 has the Standard 23C engine, we had great luck with a heater installed after the fact in the lower rad hose. 200 - 300 watt, I think.

15 min in the summer, and the engine lit right off.
