I am looking at a Ford 3600 diesel with 2,028 hours showing. The owner bought it a a farm auction 2 yrs ago and it has sat unused during that time. He recently had the injector pump replaced after he broke a fitting trying to stop a fuel leak. I drove the tractor and it seems to run great and all gears worked and the clutch appears good. Here's the issue, when I depress the clutch pedal all the way, the PTO continues to turn. I had the owner sit in the seat and depress the clutch and I was unable to stop the PTO using a large rag wrapped around the shaft. Seems like the 2-stage clutch is not releasing on the PTO....maybe just an adjustment? I am concerned that the tractor has not been used and wonder what leaks and other problems might crop up down the road. I just wonder if it is possible to properly troubleshoot the PTO without something like a brush hog attached.
Power steering worked like a charm.
A local tractor dealer has a mobile repair service that I could use to inspect the tractor....might be money well spent.
