Oh that they are indeed just give them a small bit of love and they'll take all the abuse and stay going old stuff is just gold

I know it's probably late but you should also put engine oil in the injection pump. Large 1" nut on top to fill and 1/2" level bung beside the primer pump you took off

Thanks for the advice I will recommend to customer next time it's in for work!

Good looking 6610.
Not all of them had coolant filters and is that IAT coolant?
🤙🤙👍👍

[@waterfallfarm5408]

Thanks for the comment yes it is IAT coolant. The coolant systems are the weakest part of the old ford tractors but as long as it is drained and flushed often it isn't a problem

Nice good sounding tractor. I have a 85ish Long 610 (romania build) that I'm told is a sister tractor to the Fords. I'm dealing with blowby oil after warm up. Not sure if the atf/diesel approach is worth it or just split and rebuild.
Ever experience dealing with blowby? I'm considering just running a catch can when I need to use it. I hope you fledgling business takes off. Looks like you got the garage for it.

[@waterfallfarm5408]

Hi there thanks for yer comment I appreciate it. Well blow by is a failure of the piston rings and is when compression is getting past the piston and goes down into the sump the blow by relief is normally on the top of the engine rocker cover so as to let the pressure out but not to leak oil. I would recommend running a compression test first to see what kind of compression you have and after that depending on the setup of your yoke you might be able to remove the oil pan/sump and remove the pistons that way. I would recommend doing the head gasket at the same time while your doing so much to it already and while the head is off get it Plained down to level I always do this for good practice and that way I know my new head gasket is getting a good seal. I hope this helps and thanks for watching hope to see you back again soon
