    Ford 555A Torque Converter Removal

    Hi all, The service manual says that the engine needs to be removed in order to get the torque converter out but I'm just wondering if anyone has experience with removing the converter without pulling the engine. If so I'd appreciate any suggestions on how to do it. Thanks!

    Ford 555A aletrnator diode

    Hi all, I've got a bad positive diode on my alternator. The diode p/n is D8NN10A592AA and has been discontinued from what I can tell. Does anyone know of some sort of alternate or am I stuck purchasing an alternator? If that's the case are there any crossovers to vehicles? I've got a...

    Ford 555A alternator light

    Hi all, I've got an odd problem that just popped up. I was using the machine and shut it down but the alternator warning light came on with the key in the off position and it stays illuminated. I took a look at the wiring diagram and it shows that one wire goes from the light to power and...

    Ford 555A Power Shuttle 2nd gear issue

    Hi all, Still working through issues on this machine and have run into another one. I've changed the transmission filter and fluid and when attempting to use 2nd gear, the machine engages and will move forward but barely. It's as if a clutch would be slipping. First works without any...

    Ford 555A Power Shuttle 2nd gear issue

    Finally got around to cutting open the filter. I got a little sidetracked with parts breaking on another tractor so I just had the time to cut it open. The paper was free of any metal shavings. There was a little bit of gray material at the bottom of the filter. I saw about half a dozen...

    Ford 555A Power Shuttle 2nd gear issue

    Thanks for suggestions on what to check and a slight correction to the post. It's actually 4th gear that it doesn't seem to want to engage not 2nd. Fritz, I had a few minutes yesterday to test it yesterday and it does the exact same thing in forward and reverse. There's virtually no power...

    Fuel gauge float

    Hi all, I'm trying to ensure all of the gauges on this machine work properly and am at the fuel gauge. The float for the gauge is MIA. I can't see any remnants in the tank nor is it floating on the surface. My question is can I use some common household item like a wine cork as an...

    Ford 555A Fuel System Issue

    Hi all, I just finished up on some maintenance of this backhoe and was going to put it into action today but ran into an issue. I changed the fuel filter and cleaned out the fuel sediment bowl and reassembled it without any issue. I bled the system and fired it up. It starts without any...

    Ford 555A Fuel System Issue

    I used something similar. It was a Wix WF8018. The canister is marked SF8018. I'll pull it off to see if the gasket got down into the slot during install.

    Ford 555A spindle pin removal help

    Hi all, I've finally gotten around to replacing the spindle pins, bushings, and thrust bearings on this machine. The right side went well but the left side is giving me grief. The spindle pin won't come out. The bushings are completely gone and it's stuck in the section circled in red...

    Ford 555A steering cylinder seal orientation

    Thanks Shaun. There's a rubber o-ring and a urethane o-ring that are installed under that wiper and they're pretty tight. Much tighter than what came out of there.

    Ford 555A steering cylinder seal orientation

    Just a quick question for everyone. I'm repacking the cylinders and am wondering which direction the seal in the gland should be installed. Should it be like the first or second picture? I'm asking because each cylinder had it installed differently and the service manual does not offer any...

    Ford 555A steering cylinder repacking guidance

    Hi all, I'm moving along in the maintenance that I'm doing to this machine and I wanted to repack the steering cylinders today. The service manual says to depress the gland and insert a punch through the hole in the outside of the cylinder to remove the lock ring. There's no hole on the...

    JD350b. Carb problems??

    Any chance the choke is closing going uphill? I had something similar happening with my MH50. The pull for the choke moved extremely freely and when going uphill, the vibration would slowly move it to the choked position. It'd sputter and backfire like crazy. Drove me nuts until I realized...

    Ford 555A steering arm p/n help

    That was my thought Shawn. Luckily, the unit has sat for the past decade or so by the previous owner only being brought out to move snow which we haven't seen much of here in southeast PA. I took a look and surprisingly I don't see any wear marks but I won't know until I get the bushings in there.

    Ford 555A steering arm p/n help

    Hi all, I'm getting ready to repack the steering cylinders and noticed that the left front wheel spindle looked like it was missing a bushing. I've got both the parts and service manuals and they're not jiving in terms of nomenclature. I want to ensure I order the correct part. The parts...
