Merry Christmas to all here. Just not so merry the popo need to lock you up.

Squerly. I have used one, years ago. The one we used was just a guide, every thing else was manual. It worked pretty good, but was a little more wasteful of wood than a bandsaw would have been. Not sure I would want to use one now, they were pretty labor intensive. Of course, there are some...

Welcome to the dark side. remember, if it's orange it's a pumpkin:whistling:

If the filter and line don't fix the problem, it is probably the carburetor. the needles could be gummed up or, if it has one, the float could be chocked up with gunk. a good tear down cleaning or rebuild would fix it though.

May she walk the shining fields forever, knowing neither hunger nor want. My condolences.

Doc, thanks for ya'lls hard work on these forums. I know we give you a hard time sometimes, but I for one know how much work this can be.

That is always the first piece of crap I disable on a mower, should have thought of that.

Sounds like either the tranny is locked, or, there is a bind in the drive train. Check all the pulleys if it is belt drive. Sometimes a pulley will seize and choke the motor down.

If it is in gear, with the deck disengaged, it is the tranny or drive train. If the deck is engaged, probably a bound up shaft on the deck.

Yep, that;s usually how it goes. At least Massey is still in existence.

Maybe this will lead you in the right direction. Manuals for both gas and diesel I think. www.ebay.com/itm/Massey-Ferguson-MF-85-88-Diesel-Tractor-I-T-Shop-Manual-/400106525641 www.manuals.us/masseyfergusonandharris.aspx

Thx guys, mostly here to learn though. Most of my experience is at the shade tree level.

Hi folks, I have operated tractors and heavy equipment off and on most of my life. Currently do a bit of mechanic and refurb work on tractors, but not much. Last job on a tractor was on a Minnie Mo BG.
