Re: fordson dexta serial number
serial no can can be found on left hand side[ sitting on seat ]
the number is on edge of the gearbox houseing where it joins the engine
it will be coverered in paint an grime so it will take a good bit of scrubing
to uncover it, if its a 64 it should Start 09D -------

Re: Idle low and won't rev after changing diaphragm
this really is a puzzler , when you took off the oil bath filter did you get the wire gauze
inside compleatly clean, some even boil it to get the oily gunk out of the wire mesh
this can restrict the revs big time, if this is all good then it must as you say something to
do with diafram ect

Re: Idle low and won't rev after changing diaphragm
mybe with the diafram fixed it means something eles is not working propley,
have you cleaned out the air bath filter gauge and the little gauge filter on the pump
, also mybe fuel tank filter may be blocked, just thinking outside the box

Re: seat for super dexta
no the ford modern type seat, it is the type with the damper rod in the
back for suspension , it comes with a plate which screws onto tractor the seat then
slides into this, it can be adjusted foward or backwards to suit driver,
agriline do them as the ford 000s seris seat
