I've been looking for this place for two years! And I've finally found it. I bought a TEA-20-85 two years ago, had no idea what is was and it mostly worked. Used it for hoggin and plowing and pushing snow unitl this spring when I decided it was time to get the hydraulics fully functional. The three point would drop as soon as the clutch pushed in or the tractor turned off. I found the local expert who had worked on Fords and Fergies his whole life. It still took him two times to rebuild the pump since he had never seen a TEA-20-85 and the pumps are different. He finally rebuilt it with some Ford parts and replaced the lift spring and some other parts from his vast 50yr inventory of used parts, and fully adjusted it. He recommended I clean the oil bath air cleaner with gas not kerosene, replace the desintigrating rubber dash inlet and change the oil and filter. Well, in the two times I've been to the local Massey-Ferguson dealer each time he said the parts were no longer available. The first to get the rubber seals that fit on the end of the pistons in the hydraulic pump and now the rubber inlet to the air cleaner. He couldn't even tell me my carburator or oil filter. Also, now that I have readjusted the sediment bowl gas on valve I can run my tractor again for more that 5 minutes.
Oh, and I have oil in my water not the other way around and yes my head gasket leaks on the back left corner(drivers left).
Well I know a lot of you by name already absorbing everything I can read like a sponge. And you are almost a daily habit. Considering I am building a house(I mean myself) this is probably bordering on obsessive now. Oh, is there somewhere to get the inlet rubber? I can probably deal with the rest myself. You can be sure if I have a question this is the first place I will go to.
