could the unload valve be stuck ,

Hi everyone,

The valve you see for sale screws into the end of the lift cylinder under the top cover. The relief valve that you need can not be got new. You will have to get a second hand one.

Hi Shepp, well I had a look at the head today and it has heavier springs with a black finish and the valve retainers have a knurled finish ,however if i can find an FL head then I will fit it for the sake of originality, Thanks for your help ,Liam.

Thanks for all the info Shepp, Saw another np super today which has FL on the head and the same part number as mine 6050 G .I Would imagine the head on mine is changed many years ago if it is a replacement. The tractor is in lovely original condition with excellent original tinwork and very little w...

Hi all ,Ive just bought an np super ,engine number is 08C 964130 which makes it June 63,however it does not have FL stamped on the head. The date on the manifold side of the head is unreadable .the codes on the right are EIADDN-6050-G and below that is J3167. Is this an older head or a head that is ...

It is an exhaust made by Burgess, It is stamped just across from the ENFO logo .I believe they supplied the exhausts when the tractors were new. And it should be painted blue. Liam

Great news .

Got your message Mathias ,I may have some blue paint left . I will check later in the week,Liam.

That looks about right Adrian ,another thing is that colour always looks whiter in photographs than it actually is.

Hi all ,Old 20 Parts have the correct paint you need .It is more of a cream rather than a grey or white as most people believe. Liam.

Replacement clutch unfortunately ,common problem with the dual clutch .I had the same problem ,ended up buying reconditioned clutch and release bearing from Dunlop Tractor Parts . Liam.

Bring it back and demand refund or another one .,I fitted one on my super a few years ago and it is still ok ,typical spurious rubbish .Liam.

They are all the same ,Liam

Hi,just checked on my new performance super and it says P4596.It has the taco drive on the back of the pump. hope this helps .Liam.

It worked for me Adrian .I used the original bulb holders and original butlers glass in reproduction lamps ,,the bulb holders that come in the reproduction lamps as well as the bulbs are very poor quality. Liam.

It goes on the feed pipe ,should be two of them , Liam.

Best thing with that seal is take it out and measure it ,there may two seals back to back .Dunlop tractor parts will have the proper seals.That was where I got the seals for my super. Liam.

Hi Adrian ,I am beginning to think that it is bolted on to the the bracket that carries the tank.Liam.

Hi Adrian ,Thanks for the reply .My earth lead is in the same place as yours. I was looking at a few old pictures last night and the earth lead seems to go in under the battery tray. I think what looks like a lead in the brochure is the stop cable,some are routed that way in the old pictures I was l...

Hi All ,Where is the earth lead on a super major supposed to be bolted to the body , Liam.

Hi Brian the lights will be the same no matter where you by them but the bulb holders and wiring are rubbish .I put new headlamps on my super major and was lucky to find original bulb holders on a super major in a breakers yard and used these which worked well .The same applies to the rear lights al...

Its for the pick up hitch Adrian .The super hitch is slightly different than the earlier ones, I have one here on one of my supers .Liam.

Mine is a september 63 NP super and FOMOCO is cast on all the parts except the the back axle which is ENFO just like Adrian's . Liam.

Like all the other aftermarket rubbish for sale the switches are made in places such as Turkey not Ireland .The company in Ireland distributes them everywhere.I have been told all this by my neighbour who works for this company. Liam.

The bearing are the same for either wheels ,just take the bearing out of your hubs and put them into the cast wheels.Liam
