Hi,
I am new to the group. Recently I purchased a friends MF1130 Diesel, always drove Allis D-17-15's before this. The MF is a great used tractor, but the water pump failed. I have been unable to locate a video anywhere depicting the removal of this pump. Seems like I have half my engine off and still can't get the pump or back plate to release from the front of the motor. My IT shop manual seems useless as well. Is there a bolt or pin I'm missing. Perhaps a lost Tractor Pirate map where X marks the magic release spot....? Maybe just a good, detailed, exploded view somewhere....Any thoughts? I use my tractors a lot, so having this beast down is wearing me out.
