Took a look at a tractor for a friend/hay customer. It's a Ford Nh 6640 with cab, shuttle shift transmission, if I remember a 3 speed with 3 ranges. They were using it yesterday brush hogging pastures, 10 foot mower, everything fine. Today the clutch acted up from start up, wouldn't release she said. I tested after checking where everything is (I'm not familiar with FordNH) so I didn't damage building it's in if things went south. This is what I had happening : clutch initially releases, after 15-20 seconds re-engages and tractor starts to move, put shuttle shift in neutral all is stopped ; after holding clutch pedal down for any length of time it doesn't want to come up on its own, need to start it up with my toe then comes up.I did see that it is a cable clutch, not a rod type linkage (like an IH has).
Is this a fluid power clutch? If so, where does fluid come from? Separate dedicated reservoir? Could it be something with clutch itself or more likely a cable issue?
Will do some searching on the net, but any insights would be appreciated. Thanks, Paul

Unless you are from another planet, physically or otherwise, I don’t think our internal combustion buddies will talk and tell us their problems. But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
