This video shows an oil and filter change on a 4WD Ford 1700 tractor. It also addresses fuel injector pump lubrication, and changes that took place on the injector pump in the middle of production run for the 1700 (after December of 1980).
Oil Filter used: NAPA Gold 1512
Oil used: Shell Rotella 10w30 diesel engine oil
4WD Crankcase capacity (including filter): 4.8 U.S. quarts

We have a small homestead in Richmond. Southwest NH. Ford/Shibuara made some nice little tractors.

I know where you are. I was on the crew that built the barn at Windswept Mountains Christmas Tree Farm 16ish years ago.

I have a 1710 from January of 84. My injection pump is 104303-2450. The oil change procedure for the 1710 says to add 6oz of oil to the pump at end of oil change. I could never find an answer about if the engine oil was for the pump also. So....I drained the engine oil, left the plug out and put nice red trans fluid into the pump. It came out the engine drain plug. I guess the 6oz add is to flush old oil from the pump? Hard to say, but for 1710, the oil seems shared with the engine.

Thanks for watching. I had found in my research that the 1710 was connected to the engine crankcase. That engine is different from the 1000/1600/1700 because it’s a 3 cylinder. The predecessors were all 2 cylinder. Nothing conclusive on later 1700s without the drain and level plugs. The manual doesn’t even say how much oil to add. Probably because it was written in ‘79 when the pumps had plugs for changing the oil. Then you just fill until it weeps out the level plug.

@@ProductiveRecreation Perhaps they moved what would be the level plug to just dump into the engine. Putting 6oz in basically "changes" the oil in the pump. Big mystery. I know for mine oil will flow from pump to engine. Hard to say if it will flow from engine to pump. I could put the whole 5 quarts into that tiny fill hole to really flush it I guess :) Thanks for the 1700 videos. It is close enough to what I have to see what my tractor can do once I get it all together.

Im trying to see were your loader hoses hookup under your seat

Hey man I just bought a ford tractor 1900 model can you send me a picture how your hydro lox’s for your loader are hooked up to your tractor because mine the put a auxiliary pump in front with the crank pulley

@ProductiveRecreation 3 ай бұрын

Do you have the factory Ford 770 loader or aftermarket? It may be on a separate circuit because the loader valve block part at the back of the tractor wasn’t available when the loader was added. Or it could be because there isn’t a ton of hydraulic flow on these machines, so if someone was trying to run a rear remote at the same time, the loader would be sluggish. As for the setup, mine isn’t stock anymore since I added hydrostatic power steering. The feed and return lines to the loader valve come from the right side rear, between the position control lever and the 3 point lift cylinder under the seat. Best way to see how mine was set up is to check out my videos on the conversion to hydrostatic power steering. I changed the setup to feed the steering unit first, then the power beyond on the steering unit feeds the loader.

Hey, I’ve acquired a 79’ and I noticed your Hydro dipstick looks much longer than mine and it’s also brazed together so it had an issue at one point. Could you give me dipstick length by chance?

@ProductiveRecreation 3 ай бұрын

Are you asking about the engine oil dipstick, or the transmission/rear axle/hydraulic oil dipstick? Those two are significantly different in length.
