Hi, just another day in paradise! Just spent a bit of time taking out the old Master Cylinder to find the seal hard and the cylinder certainly worn to one side with very mild scoring. I did this as a result of virtually total clutch fail. Since it has creeper gears I can actually move it around very very slowly without the clutch as I can engage super low Forward and Reverse without the clutch. I had earlier acquired the new Master Cylinder having had the original leaking externally although it was more of what I would call a weeping. I thought maybe the seals were being bypassed with the pressure and so diagnosed faulty Master Cylinder. I am wrong!!!
The clutch is still not present with any pressure at all. I do not appear to have any sort of fluid leak under the tractor if it were slave cylinder??? There is plenty of fluid in the transmission and all other hydraulic operated items work, ie brakes, steering, remotes for rear and front on all outlets/inlets as per normal. There are no error codes in the display panel in front of the driver. Prior to this clutch fail the automatic gear for up and down without clutch failed but not at the same time and I suspect electrical fault with that one.
Any experienced suggestions from MF3090 owners. Tractor has near 11700 hours on it, lives outside and is in average but very functional condition.
Where do I begin??? Maybe a new tractor???
How would a 5435 compare with the 3090 as there is one for sale???
Thanks, MX45
