I'm trying to find a manual to help me with my new 63 Super Dexta. The engine is tired, and I plan to rebuild it soon, but need the info found in the manual. I would also like to find a copy of a service manual for the whole tractor. Any body have a source for these? I'm told that the manual I wanted was an FO-18, but is now out of print. Are there any other manuals that would tell me how to service my little tractor? Any body have a copy I could purchase? Thanks, Ed

Thanks to all who helped! I got the manuals I needed. I got an original parts catalog in great shape (looks new), and a service manual. The number turned out to be an FO-201. They don't go into the detail that I was hoping for on the engine rebuild, but maybe I can find something at the Perkins service center in town.
Thanks again for everyone that replied on the board and through email

Ed: If you will click on 'manuals' in the window to the left of your text screen and then type Dexta and select Ford in the search window you will find copies of the Dexta Operators manual and Parts Manual available right on this site. I'll check in to the real challenge... the Service Manual. They are out there but a bit rare.

Thanks Don. I had looked there previously and saw those two manuals, but wasn't sure about the service manual. I fell in love with all the features of the tractor, and always wanted a diesel. I'm really anxious to get started on the engine. It runs, but barely, with a lot of growl and thumping in the lower end of the engine. I was wondering if the manual for the 3 cylinder Ford 2000 (FO-S-2000)would be the same? I was told from the serial number (1647773) that the engine was built in '64, and is an F3/152. Are these sleeved engines?
Thanks, Ed

Ed: The Super Dexta is fitted with a dry sleeve.
I do not believe the 2000 engine is the same but I do not know that for a fact. By the way, your
serial number posted has too many digits for a Dexta. Are you reading the correct number?

Thanks for the info on the dry sleeve. I saw your followup to this message too. The manual I got said something about honing a new sleeve. I thought that these would come from the factory already honed? The rebuild kits I've seen include the pistons, rings, and sleeves (and a lot of other stuff), I thought that the pistons and sleeves would be ready to install after having the crankshaft ground? I'm confused (nothing new).
Thanks,
Ed

Ed: I re-read your last post... I see you said engine number, not serial number; so never mind
the correct number reply, 1964 is correct.
