    February/March Pitstop

    Message originally posted by: Sue Roedel (Editor, MOC)
    As you may have noticed, the latest mag is a a spookily close copy to the December/January issue. The reason for this is a spectacular c*ck up on the part of our Printer! This is being rectified and a real copy should be sent to you early next week. Apologies from the Printer!

                    Hi sue,

                    Thanks for your reply to me. The new issue has arrived - great!

                    ps Has anyone got a spare thermostart for a Massey Ferguson MF 35X? Mine has just blown up at the coldest time of the year! (it must be taking lessons from Moll!)

                      Hi Dane. Suggest you try Old 20 Parts Co on 01332 792698 they do mail order. We have used them for years. You may find the mag Tractor & Farm Machinery interesting too.

                          Hi Dane, Is that the old engine that the the standard Vanguard copied? if so the stat may be the same as all the triumpph straight 6 engines use.

                            Ben,
                            No, it is the 3 cyl Perkins A3-152. It is not the thermostat I am after, it is the thermostart (not a typo) this burns fuel in the inlet manifold. after about 15 seconds one activates the starter wherupon the burning conflagration is shot into the cylinders which helps the initial start of the diesel!

                            Cheers
