I have a 1997 MF-240-S, with a MF 232 loader. Perkins AD3.152. I believe the S means it was made in Turkey by Uzel. Anyway, it's the first diesel / loader combo for me, so I've got used to it. The in-frame 240-S hydraulic pump puts out 4.2 gpm, so the combo is slow. I have heard a front-mount pump might put out lots more GPM. The MF-232 manual for the loader itself states 'lift capacity' at full height = 1800 lbs. for all tractors except MF 1040/1045 tractors. The listed 'breakout force' for all tractors except 1040/1045 is 2600 lbs. I like the combo a lot, except as I say, it is slow. I have not one problem with this, except one time I hooked a front fork one time, and bent the bottom of the loader bucket down slightly. But it is slow. The MF-240 manual tells you air pressures for loader work, so I believe it was designed for it.

But alas, my carb foiled me again, it would fire a second then flood out. After numerous dead ends for a replacement carb, I went to work fixing mine.I soldered new floats on the float arm, they came from an old motorcycle carb, replaced the packing on the throttle shaft with o-rings, cut new ga
