The PTO seal repair is one of the easier repairs on these, but the rear axle bearing collar removal is not. There's been posts in the ford forum on methods used to remove and replace. Its a must do if you want the brakes at their best on these, given they were not the best when new. Oil may impregnate the friction material on the pads. In good working order, they have worked well on the hills around here. The water in the trans may be from a leaky shift lever boot. These tractors also seem to take on a lot of condensate. I have an 850 that sat covered 2/3 - 3/4 with a decent tarp and bungy cords, air flowing easily underneath and the crankcase was loaded with so much water that it froze up during the winter and the stick read no oil. It warmed up and I was able to drain a bunch out of it before replacing the oil. This tractor had all the fluids replaced and I will bet all 3 compartments will need to be drained of water now. Its amazing how much condensate will accumulate over time. My 640 is sitting covered in the same way, next in line to get worked on, but I'll bet it's got water to drain off as well.

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
