[861Pete]

Hi, Today I drove my new project home.It's a Ford 5000 diesel. Here are the numbers


E1017C = As far as I can tell it is a 5000 Agricultural Diesel 8 Speed. The info I have on the PTO type has the numbers 1 thru 6 but I have a 7
1E11 = 1971 May 11th
*B898xxx* = Made in England and serial number
There are two problems with it.
1. The 3 point doesn't move at all. This is different than my 861 and 4000 as there are two knobs on the side. one is a rotary knob marked Flow control and a push pull knob marked selector. I tried all the combinations I could think of but no luck. Any ideas ?

2. The Power assist steering also doesn't work. It was down quite a bit but after filling up still no assist

3. Shop manual on the way.
Thanks and Happy Thanksgiving !! Pete

7 is a new one on me.. post a pic of the shifter.

if the diverter is pulled.. there will be no pressure to the lift.

if you have a top cover valve like most do.. make sure a spool is not engaged.. it will also kill the lift ( and relief eventually! )

with cap off PS pump resevoir.. is the oil rolling and circulating?

ps.. check it.. is it a 7spd or 8spd...

Soundguy, Thanks for the response. With the cap off the oil is moving. I will take a pic of shifter and the numbers this am, Pete

Here are the pics.

This tractor runs well and it sure has some power !! It shows 2500 hours and the tach is working. Was $3000 a fair price ? Thanks, Pete

the engine alone is worth that pretty much
