The Fordson Tractor Pages Forum

Thanks for that Dandy Dave, I went to New Holland Agriculture, registered for the parts catalogue but nothing relating to FMD comes up. I've searched for 'FMD' 'Fordson' 'Major' and anything else I can think of but it just says 'No Matches Found' This is where the New Holland page took me h**ps://we...

Thanks Gman, I had a look at the manuals but could not find one which detailed this particular bit. I'll scan through your posts and check out the pictures.

I apparently have a Power Major with an exchange engine in it, and am currently trying to source a fews bits and bobs for it, but there is one part I have no idea what the name of it is... Under the tractor, there is an 'A' frame connecting the front axle. At the apex of this 'A', under the engine, ...

Right! I think I found a casting date on the side of the engine for november 1967. So if I have the breather on the timing case which is normal for the Power Major and the lift pump of the Super Major, Should I put a sediment bowl on it? As you can see from the pictures part of the fuel line is a ru...

Thanks for that Brian, it gives me hope!! I'll have a look for more codes tomorrow, while I am getting the Mrs used to being a tractor widow. :D This is from behind the No. 1 injector http://dl.dropbox.com/u/14708387/serial.jpg First job is to order a new fuel tap, and some copper washers for the ba...

The tractor has just been delivered and has an 'S' prefix engine number Exchange Engine

The only other casting mark I have seen so far is near the clutch pivot and is N27B

Could it be that I have a bitsa?

Hi, I'm over in the west of Ireland and have just bought this Fordson for what I think was a very reasonable price. I need to find out more about it though, which is how I came across the forum. I'm not even sure what model it is as the instrument panel (or lack of it!) looks nothing like any fordso...
