I would have thought that by the time anyone had codged that lot together with the cost of fittings and time they might s well have done it properly.

Exactly even if it costs £1000 for a new valve it's not the end of the world if it gets you a working tractor

Probably one of those capers that turn out to be more work than first thought.
Sometimes people get fed up spending and loose sight of the outcome, and only hear the ring of the cash register.

worse case its the load sensing valve if it ends up stuck with filings its a small plus

I hope your right, fillings are terrible. Whatever time you have finished change the oil and filters - twice if possible.

well lads just wondering how you bleed the brakes on 8110 were fine two days ago and a bit spongy yesterday and gone today. handbrake still works perfect

I usually just open the bleed valve on the top of each trumpet and let it push some oil out.
Given that you have just bought it and it has been 'altered' a bit I would slip the trumpets off now to see if the brakes are ok.
I would place a small wager that they are papped, change the big 'o' ring whatever they look like when you have them off.

On top of the back axel trumpet housing each side there's a bleed screw, you'll need to remove the engine side panel and put a pair of molegrips on the rubber hose coming out of the distribution block under the bonnet that feeds the master cylinders, the pipe will come out of the left hand side of it (if your looking at the tractor from the front) then Rev the engine up to 1500rpm and open each bleed screw and split the brake pedals, pump each pedal untill you get clean oil with no bubbles out of the bleed screw

Sound il try that in the morning should I be looking at the seals in the master cylinders before I take the trumpets off? If discs were gone would the handbrake still work

Have you tried wriggling them myltipon plugs above engine?
Robert tubman
Member
No, can this cause problems?
I have some dynashift lights at times, like when i start her and then nothing whilst working.
4wd light never works nor does the high and low box light.
Or handbrake.

I'd be tempted to undo the 4 screws that hold the dash in pull it out and check that big plug there, get a test light and see if there's power getting to it, could be the printed circuit board that's the problem

70% of the dash works its mainly to do with dynashift and 4wd on all tractors.
