[QUOTE="Mur Huwcun, post: 7237976, member: 33114"] It's pretty much the same hydraulic pump as your Explorer!! With the hitch the Hydraulic push out type is a nicer hitch than the Swing out version. The swing out version needs greasing a lot and the hooks can stiffen up if not well lubricated. Gears will be stiff and need oiling, there's quite a bit of linkages above and behind the fuel tank. it's a two person job really, one wiggling and the other spraying everything with oil in till it moves nicely. Personally I wouldn't use the switch on gear lever too much as it has a slightly longer delay which for the mechanically minded just doesn't feel right. If it's got a powershuttle fault it will flash a code on the panel on dash and same for the electric throttle on the side panel. Count slow a and fast flashes to make up a two digit number. You seem to know a bit about them anyhow. Electric wise is nothing to be afraid of, they're actually pretty pre historic compared to last ten years of tractors and that era were built with super seal plugs on every connections and not the white plastic spade connector blocks. I wouldn't be too worried about ECUs either, I can't remember changing a Silver / premium type one and the PTO has a module somewhere as with them you need to hold button for 3 seconds. Never changed one of them either but I think I remember it's in the side console there somewhere. If you man has an ART he can calibrate everything for you, powershuttle, linkage, foot throttle and handthrottle. The electric hydraulics are actually more simple to work on than the manual version!! The panel missing on the roof most probably covers the air conditioning condensor and fans etc. Factory fitted they were there to avoid overloading the cooling capacity and space in front of radiator. When working it's a very good aircon so hopefully yours only needs a top up and service. The matrix is quite easy to access at front of cab to give it and the fans a clean. Heater is separate in the dash. i wont preach that they're the best ever tractor or I will be shot down by somebody but they're far from the worst and if you have dealer backup and technicians who know them you won't be dissapointed.
