    Tm140 oil leak I can't trace

    I lifted the floor, which I had forgotten all about since last time 😭. So thanks for that. Thanks for the tip about the resonator. Was wondering what that was! I'll know for next time! It was a pressure switch that gave up and was spraying oil. Found it seeping out of the wiring. Handy fix...

    Merlo 34.7 clicking noise in high gear

    Hello. Just driving down the road here and the merlo has started this clicking noise as I drive forward. Only in second gear and only going forward. Looks all OK visually. Clicking sounds like it's from front right hand side. Hardy spicer maybe? Thanks Tom

    Merlo electrical problem

    I think comp ram pin and bushes for sure. I can see some movement on main arm pin too. Ram looks OK... it's a new to me machine. I'm not sure greasing was a top priority. Is it a big job to change them out? Looks fairly straight forward!

If I put in the h7 bulb there is a click somewhere on side of machine and it's gone for about 5 mins then power reappears. I might remove...

    Merlo electrical problem

    I found 4 relays under dash too. One bypassed with a wire. But they don't seem to do much plugged in or out.

    New holland tm 140 wiring...

    Solder connectors. The plastic shrinks under the heat and then the solder band melts over the wire connection. Some job.
