It would be great to talk to anyone who has an ap16, I have one and without manuals etc it would be good to have a source of knowledge as every tractor I have looked at is so different. I have a service manual for an ap22, which is the closest I can get.
Mine has a fuel filter in the tank(which had been unscrewed to allow fuel to flow and all the crud through) and what appears to be a filter housing bolted to the engine with no filter in. All the pics I can find on the web of an AP16 don't have the housing bolted to the engine, so I will probably remove this.
Will need to remove the 3" of sludge from the in-tank filter trough, get the injectors refurbished and cross fingers. Amazing how they still run after years of abuse with no filters!
Only had the tractor a few weeks, so far only found masses of work, changed the engine oil to find a clogged strainer and an inch of sludge in the sump.
Hey ho, it will be done one day, and done right!
P.s. It green at the mo, can anyone shed light on what the difference/decision was between red or green ap16's?
Have a great bank hol!
Does anyone on here have an AP16?

Cleaned the tank out, fresh filter and fuel with some additive/injector cleaner. Bled the pumps and she runs sweet as a nut! Did a few road miles today and it runs and starts much better. Just a few oil leaks to tend too, to be expected after a few years standing idle.

Do you have picture?
I think the two colours for the AP16 and AP17 are Orange for export and Green for domestic market. Personally I like the Green with red wheels.
