I recently acquired a 1966 Farmall 706 with the D282 diesel. I originally bought it for the IH 2000 loader and ice chains but think I'm going to fix the tractor, which amongst other things desperately needs engine attention, and I have a few questions. I have a little experience with the D282 engine after doing some work on a D236. So far the PTO and power steering both seem to be fully functional, and the left brake is great, the right brake however barely has any effect, these are hydraulic actuated brakes that are meant to be dry or wet? The TA handle moves but doesn't produce any result, the tractor also doesn't freewheel in either position, does the tractor have to be running to adjust or can I do it while I have the engine out? I need to go through the shift linkage as it's quite sloppy but that should just be a case of getting rid of the wear and free play? Finally, the park brake seems to 'slip' some times, others it seems fine - any ideas? Thanks, Sam
