If your coolant temperature gauge isn't working, this video shows how to repair it. This was performed on a MF-35, but it's the same for almost any old tractor and even many newer models including Ford, John Deere, New Holland, Case, International, Farmall, Oliver, etc.

I need to do this!! Inherited my TO35 and can't remember if temp gauge ever worked. Not rocket science and definitely do-able after watching this! Just gotta get one ordered! Thanks,for video!!!

Hi, have you any video showing how to change thermostat on MF35 please? Do you have to remove fuel tank & radiator? Thanks

Great video and thank you. Any further tips on dealing with the bracket that hold the gauge in place. My oil gauge has gone and I am struggling with the bracket.

It's been awhile and I can't really remember anything to add now. Hope you get it all figured out though.

I had to go get set of offset metric wrenches to remove mine. Probably original gauge and years of rust and buildup in threads. Took forever!!! Used 8mm which was same on new one!

I installed one on my tractor, it works for a while, but later I saw that the stalk no longer moved, why?

@bceinvestor 2 жыл бұрын

What size wrench did you use to remove the end that goes into the engine block?

Afraid I wouldn't remember now. Sorry!

Before you buy a new gauge, unscrew the old one from the water jacket (get someone to hold a finger over the hole to stop the water coming out) and put the end in your cup of coffee. If it’s like mine, it’ll work fine! I’ve obvs got some other issue.

That sounds like a neat trick.

What if it's like mine and won't unscrew cause it's old and stripped off

Just did that on my MF 231, actually I changed all gauges, none worked. Complete dashboard overhaul.

Works the same on a Massey Ferguson 30 ?

@FarmDad 4 жыл бұрын

Yes, works the same on a TO-30. There's a slight chance you may find that the replacement temp sensing rod is too long for the port. If you run into that problem, you'll also need a spacer/extension fitting. You probably won't run into that, but thought I'd mention it just in case as I have seen it a couple times.
