The Fordson Tractor Pages Forum

Events have caught up with me and the AC filter carrier I have on the tractor (see pic on link below) has finally turned to Cheshire cheese and its bleed holes will take no more drilling out and retapping.

There is no direct AC replacement, and I don't know where to search for another brand although CAV do something similar looking.

I'd like something which goes straight on, same pipes, same mountings and so on.

Can you suggest someone I could consult?

TIA

Get a 2nd hand one.

Have a look on ebay, email anyone selling dexta parts / breaking dextas.

Also try malcolm Hipperson, Bertie Dunlop etc... There should be plenty out there.

Thanks SR, it's very similar but the in and out arrangements differ.

Here's my AC set up.

The filter head looks a lot like the one that was on our old 4000, which looked a lot like this:

The one on our 4610 is very similar as well.

Don't know if this is of any help, but if you have a tractor wrecking yard near by, maybe they could match it up.

I think one of these off a later Dexta / Super D, would also fit, but you might need some different length bolts to secure to eng block, see here:

It's marked D08-1 on the top of the housing.

Thanks to both for the info above.

In the meantime, to tide me over I've ordered one of these - "Tractor Fuel Filter Head Housing Massey Ferguson Ford Case International 1/2 UNF" from eBay.

Will you have to blank off some of the holes?

Let us know how you get on!

I gave up trying to fix mine and replaced with cav single unit agriline has one for under 20 pounds, #7150 block off two ports on the back side [img]

There we are modern substitution works, thanks for explanations and tips.

Apparently this also fits a Massey 235, whatever, it spannered straight on.
