The Fordson Tractor Pages Forum

heres a fordson power major I bought a couple of weeks ago seen it in a barn and asked farmer if he wanted to sell and the deal was done I drove it home but engine was smoking and was using water so a rebuild was on the to do list here's a few pictures





head back from machine shop skimmed new guides and seat recut

old liners had pin hole's at bottom so new pistons and liners fitted

recon injectors all up and running now got to give the gear box and rear end a service and shel be ready for work I'm looking for a pair of grills if anyone has a spare set around

An old saying hereabouts "The dog that trots about gets a bone" - Nice tractor, is it live drive as well as the auxilliary spool valve ??

Not envious, you understand , but I do wish I'd got to that barn before you!
Congrats on your new acquisition. As is plain to see, it's a good one.
Best, Adrian.

Yeah it's live drive farmer said it used to have an old mill
Loader on it but he hated it and chucked it on the scrap I would of quite liked to of kept the loader on. Il post some pictures when I get her out working I've got get some tyres which is going to cost some £££ but they make the tractor

Is the loader the reason for the exhaust through the hood? It is different from the original place.

I guess it give more room for loader plus someone's put the lights up high and most loader tractors I've seen seem to have the nose guard

Got the major working today new tyres fitted plus I put some wheel weights on rear, still looking for a set of grills and I could do with a new exhaust but for now that'll do
