Hello Greg, Is your MF 35 fitted with a Perkins 3 cylinder engine? If so it is easy to check and change if necessary. First of all connect a 12V test lamp between the supply cable to the thermostart and earth. The thermostart is located in the inlet manifold on the right hand side of the engine just above the fuel lift pump. To remove it you will require a 1 1/16 spanner. Several switch types may be fitted. The original had an 'off', then turn clockwise to start. For a cold start turn anti-clockwise to 'HS', (Heat start)for 5 to 10 seconds and then on further to the 'start' position. Later switches should have an 'off', 'Ign', 'Heat', and 'Start' position. In the 'heat' position your test lamp should light. If the current is OK remove the thermostart and inspect the coil inside for dampness and presence of diesel. Check the inside of the inlet manifold for any signs of wetness. If this is present the thermostart has failed and will need to be replaced. An approximate price is around £15-18, $30-35. £-cylinders are generally good starters so you may have problems elsewhere, starter, battery, fuel etc. Cheers DavidP, South Wales

Paint is another, the modern acrylic enamels are great for resistance to grease and fuel stains, retaining their shine and they last forever; unlike enamels and lacquers . Still another is the alternator. No doubt using the original generator keeps the tractor pure, but for thos
