nashmach Posted July 5, 2007 Share Posted July 5, 2007 I've yet to drive a 3 cylinder Ford that didn't live in 6th when working hard. Seems to be the gear that was designed for them to work hardest in. Memories of buckraking silage with a 4000 Of course 6th to reverse is a hell of a lot easier than 5th to 6th under load. Do you use the clutch for the second part of the exercise? I prefer to crash into the next gear - makes it work like a synchro. Use the clutch but not as a footrest - I can never remember changing a clutch on any of our tractors and the 3600 is still on the original at 4150 hours Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
