  1. John Deere
    Purchase my first diesel, an 02 John Deere X595 with 1100 hours. Yanmar 3TNE74 engine. Takes a few minutes to start. Doesn't want to crank over, like its not getting fuel but once it does I am set. It will continue to fire right up until I leave it sit over night. No loss of power or anything...

    I have a John Deere 430 garden tractor with a yanmar diesel 3 cylinder engine. It usually runs like a top. After setting for almost a year, it would not start. I checked fuel at filter top = great. Fuel at bleeder port = good steady stream. After taking all 3 fuel lines off and checking, I...

    Ok, disclaimer first. Not a diesel mechanic and not that familiar with diesels. My trusty Kohler/Lombardini 35 hp air cooled diesel somehow got water in the fuel tank. We think it was a dirty load from the service station. Drained the tank. Cleaned bottom bowl and then ensured the gravity feed...
  5. Buying & Pricing
    I may need to get the diesel engine on my 1968 ford 4500 tractor re-sleeved and a new set of pistons. Would anyone have an idea what the ballpark cost of something like that would be? Thanks
  6. Repair & Technical Discussion
    Hi Everyone, This is my first post on this forum. I bought a Yanmar 186 about 6 months ago. It has never given me any issues, and the fluids have stayed full. I only used it for pulling a box blade around my yard and pulling an empty trailer around. A couple of weeks ago, I accidentally...

    Hi everyone, I'm a student at the University of Buffalo and I am doing a student research project on how people use diesel exhaust fluid (DEF). I want to hear about your experiences because the people who use it every day should have their voices heard. If you guys could answer my questions...

    Hi team, Total noob re tractors or anything mechanical. Due to recent marriage, have inherited a 79 Ford 3600 diesel She was apparently serviced 6 months ago (the tractor, not the wife!)

    I have a Kobota 3 cylinder diesel on a Grasshopper 721D mower. At random times (loaded or idling) it loses power then either recovers or stalls. It is very hard to start in that it sputters or lags before finally coming up to speed. I had the injectors rebuilt and tested but that did not help. I...

    Hello All, Just a quick question for you diesel experts. Taking my top cover of my CAV off and I had to cut my fuel line backflow tube that goes to the overflow of my injectors. My question is can Air line for brakes be used? It looks the same and the ID is the same(1/4)(?) The NAPA mgr said...

    I used my 69 Ford 4000 Diesel in June, went to start it 3 days ago (9/24/2019) and it just turned over and over and over. Sucked out all the fuel, replaced with new "Off Road Diesel" and used some Hot Shot’s Secret "Diesel Extreme" Fuel conditioner. It started on the 1st try, easy, peasy...

  16. Ford / New Holland
    While working on a plumbing problem my friend once told me "You can never touch just one fitting". Meaning, once you fix this issue, another will pop up. I suppose the same applies to Diesel Fuel Systems. I had a very simple problem. The cut off lever on the fuel injector pump was leaking...

    Hi, my name is Wayne. I stumbled across this forum while searching the Internet looking for an answer to my tractor problem. I guess I should have just searched "Tractor Forum" first and saved some time. At any rate I am glad I found this sight. I'm an IT professional during the week and...
  18. Ford / New Holland
    Hello again all, 1969 Ford 4000. The last 2 times I used it it started to sound like one of the 3 cylinders went missing. The 1st time I only ran it for a short time after it started to sound like a missing cylinder. The next time I started it, it sounded fine, in fact I forgot about the sound...
