Hi mark,

Congrats with your new engine, I have the same series engine, but I have a different exhaust and air inlet manifold. Does your injection pump has a connection for a rpm cable?

Regards,

Arno

I have the same problems with the seals, I have the light version originally mounted, I ordered the UK (heavy duty) version at agriline. Where can I get the light (US) version, are these still available?

thanks,

Arno Gubbels

Thanks everybody for your comments. The engine is already a few weeks in place, haven't got any pictures yet. The next thing to do is refit the rear axles, hydraulic oil pump, hydraulic lift and valves, gear shifters, steering box and several more stuff. Then I will refitt the front axle with new si...

Hi pascal, My plan was too build the engine in a few weeks ago, but I noticed some broken bearings in the gearbox. Yesterday I got the new bearings and some other parts to rebuild the gearbox, hopefully I can assemble the gearbox this saturday and maybe the engine next week. Yust keep an eye on my t...

Grani, Thanks for the manuals and parts list. But I can't find the Timing of the injection pump of my type of engine (2709E). Can I use the timing specs of the 2715 engine, it has a bore of 107.21mm while mine has a bore of 104.77mm, I don't know if this is relevant for the timing of the injection p...

I have e Ford 2709E engine. I did a complete overhaul to the engine, but now i need the specifications to adjust the dieselpump. Does anybody has a service manual for these kind of engines, or knows where I can get one?

Thanks,

Hi Arno, This tractor belongs to a tractorfriend of mine. :) It's a great tractor. The front weights from 1000-series will not fit, since the wholes in the front block are not in the same place as in the front weights. A subframe is used to mount these front weights. I used the same method for my t...

Nice pictures and a very nice tractor .

Does anybody knows if the front weights on the next picture fit on the front block of a power major. I heart they didn't but I don't know fur sure. http://lh5.ggpht.com/_p2LuL9xjY6E/R3PHHq-v1xI/AAAAAAAAB-c/d9GTS2qqjic/s576/50%20jaar%20COM%20Bunnik%202007%20Fordson%20Super%20Major%201963.JPG regards,...

Thanks everybody for the reactions. The seat is not original, it doesn't fit properly. I traded it for an original fordson seat. Thanks for the info about the clutches, but I just bought new clutch plates, so I will give it a try. If it's ready it will mostly be used for shows and hobby. Not really ...

I have found the information for the clutch, thanks everybody. I know a fordson power major with the same engine as what I am going to use. He used the original double plated clutch en he has no problems with it. He used the tractor for ploughing and it still works. Thats why i Chose the double clut...

And I am restoring a fordson power major and converting it to a 6 cilinder with a ford 2709E engine. Now i have bought new clutch plates and some clutch bearings, I want to replace this ones. It ...
