Ford 8360 questions

Post #1 by hair bear » Fri Jun 05, 2015 12:19 am

Does anyone know anything about the 8360 dash panel?
It will select between oil pressure and water temp but won't show fuel.
The main panel appears only to show forward speed, and incorrectly at that. It regularly reads over 100mph!
Why does the clutch not engage when the tractor is on full left lock? Turn the wheel the slightest amount to the right and it's away, weird stuff.
Again, any ideas appreciated.
If a LandRover doesn't leak oil, it's run out.

I would put that one up on one of the Farming forums. Do you not get any error codes?

Spent best part of a day messing with it, no luck so maybe easier just to get someone else to drive it!

Just to complete this, I never did fix the dash, but the clutch/steering issue was down to a worn/failing pump in the back end of it. I wasn't involved in fixing that so I can't give any more details.
