    Hey Olliejunkie

    MF285 High Speed Miss?

    I recently finishing up an inframe rebuild of the Perkins 4.318 in my MF285. It was rebuilt because I lost power and was blowing heavy black smoke. While the tractor was running in temperature range, the exhaust manifold got hot enough to discolor the cowl. Compression was low (360)...

    Perkins 4.318 Piston Installation

    Dieseltech, I am a little confused as the manual says: "Pistons should be assembled to connecting rods with number on side of rod and cap toward (camshaft) side of engine" You have always been right on the money with other answers so I don't know what to make of this. IFF

    Perkins 4.318 Piston Installation

    I am on home stretch with the rebuild of the perkins 4.318 in my MF285. Since a little time has passed, I am second guessing myself on the proper position of the pistons on the rods since the new pistons do not have the forward position marked. Since the pistons have the toroidal combustion...

    MF285 Dry Sleeve Install Frustration

    Thank you all for the input. I am going to construct a jig that will allow me to use a bottle jack to press the sleeves in place. They will be going in at room temperature with oil and no sleeve retaining compound. IFF

    MF285 Dry Sleeve Install Frustration

    I started to install a new sleeve in my Perkins 4.318. Per the manual, I put the sleeves in the freezer which, according to the manual, will allow the sleeves to slip in by hand. The other option the manual gives is to not chill the sleeves but to oil them and press into place. I went the...

    MF285 Hole behind liner?

    The hole is not too big, about the size of the tip of a pen. It is a steady drip. I consulted with a local Massey Ferguson factory trained mechanic who said he has ran into this issue a number of times in the past. His remedy was to fill the pit with Devcon and re-sleeve. Apparently there...

    MF285 Hole behind liner?

    It is low in the cylinder bore, just and inch or so up from the bottom. I was wondering if something like Loctite 640 sealer would work when installing the new liner. IFF

    MF285 Hole behind liner?

    As I pulled the #4 cylinder liner on my 285 last night I noticed residual coolant in the block dripping from the cylinder. There is a hole in the block that appears to be from corrosion. I was not loosing coolant while using the tractor. I am doing a rebuild due to low compression. I am...

    88 diesel double pulley

    Was there ever a double belt, crankshaft pulley made for the Oliver 88 diesel? Since I have decided to run a external hydraulic pump I would prefer to drive it off of the crankshaft pulley rather than piggy back on the water pump/generator belt. I had also considered driving it off of the belt...

    No wonder I don't have hydraulic pressure, Oliver 88

    I posted a couple of weeks ago that I had zero pressure from my Oliver 88 Group 1 hydraulic system. I took out the pump tonight and found the centerplate, which I had replaced, is too tall. It stands ~1/4" proud of the gears. The centerplate is 1 3/8" thick and the gears 1 1/8". I know there...
