Don't know the model, but I would expect it has a serpentine belt with no adjustment. Just a spring loaded tensioner. If you get the belt routed properly no adjustment is needed.

Too many possibilities on that one. Yes, the pump timing can be a factor with that pump, but so can fuel supply. Looks like you have a low mounted fuel tank, no dedicated fuel lift pump, and Mahindra's (patented) fuel lines with sections of rubber fuel hose crimp sealed to sections of steel...

Some of the early tractors had no screen on the hydraulic pump, but I think the 65 does. If the standpipe O rings are good, I would go next to the screen. Drain the rear housing (probably needs that anyway) and remove the right side cover with PTO shift lever. Look inside for a tin cover about...

I would suggest you NOT fool with the "fuel injection system". That's not homeowner friendly, and most likely not part of the problem. If the engine dies as described it PROBABLY is from lack of fuel. What are you doing to get it going again? Are you finding air in the system AT the injection...

Just what in the world are you on about here? He's not fooling with any hoses or connections.

I can't see where removing the drive shaft is going to be much help. The shaft isn't the problem. You need to revisit the front axle with tires off the ground. When you turn one tire (either one, either way) what happens? When one tire rotates the pinion shaft (the one the drive shaft connects...

No, you can't get a new spool (if that's indeed what broke). You broke the actual spool, or some prt of the linkage that operates it? If it's the spool you need a new valve assembly yes, but not necessarily one from Mahindra. Most any loader valve will work, you just need to get your fittings...

It may not have many hours on it, but the age factor creeps in. Things like belts, hoses, filters, ETC most likely can be found. Bearings and seals are mostly generic anyway so they're available. Internal engine parts (should you ever need any) would be questionable at best. Shafts, gears, and...

If the sound changes with one injector cracked then move it to another cylinder and try again. See if the sound follows the injector or stays with the cylinder.

Can the cam wear out? ANYTHING can wear out, cam lobes included. But when any "wear" takes place whether it's cam, lifter, push rod, or rocker arm related the valve lash will increase, not decrease. If the valve adjustment is too tight, I can only think of two reasons for that. 1) Valve face...

When I came across this problem a couple years back it was my first time with this particular issue. Seemed simple enough. Pump's not working. Remove it, overhaul it and be done with it. I split that tractor at least three times, had the pump apart two or three times and couldn't make any sense...

I won't argue your theory in this case, as I have never seen the pump in this model. However, my experience with this problem was on a 270, which as I recall had no such circuitry and no light. The pump strainer on this model is like nothing I've ever seen on any other Massey model, based on...

Interesting developments on both counts. I've put many gallons of Traveler UTF in a great many tractors and have never had that result. I'm curious about how the new screen thing works out. If the new one looks like this one, I would be tempted to return it. Order one with a different part...

Agreed on both counts. While the block heater is the most effective of the two, it does require ac power available. The other is known as a thermostart element and requires a fuel supply tied into the tractor's fuel return line system. Not hard to do (if you know what you're doing) but again...

I'm not sure what "diagram" you're hoping to find. As I see it, that model was made in Brazil. Some tractors built down there are mostly similar to UK built units, but not entirely. The parts book shows two lift pumps. One made in UK and the other ??? Could be made locally. That said, I ran...

As I see it, the "light" involved is a waste of time. If the system works with the tube plugged off, then plug it permanently and get back to work. Massey has been building those tractors for over seventy years using the same lift system without any "idiot" lights and gotten by just fine. When...

The battery cutoff? Have you tried taking that out of the circuit and just using a ground cable? It sure sounds like something in this system isn't "carrying the load." Removing that will eliminate one more possibility.

That says the engine is NOT tight, the weak link has to be battery, cables (and/or connections) or starter. Yes, the starter is new, but that "don't make it good". It all looks good in the photos, but something here is not carrying the load. If it were me I would suspect the solenoid again. Try...

Engine "feels heavy". That engine is not that big. Without pulling the spark plugs, you should be able to turn it over by hand. Transmission in neutral, stand on one side, push in on the fan belt with one hand and pull on the fan blade with the other. If you can't make it turn that way, you...

Can't say this for sure, but many Jap tractors have a rubber hose (about 5/16 or 3/8 inch) at the bottom of the radiator leading to a tee and a drain type fitting. The other side of the tee has a hose going to the engine block with a hose barb fitting at the bottom of the block's water jacket...
