    D-17 Hand Clutch Jumping out of High Range

    I'll give these a try when it warms up a bit. We've had a cold spell lately. I do think that the engine was running pretty high RPMs the times that it jumped out. I changed all the fluids in the tractor at the time of the rebuild. I used John Deere Hi-Tran. Maybe its rebelling. lol. That...

    D-17 Hand Clutch Jumping out of High Range

    Wow, It doesnt taker much wear to cause problems by the looks of it. Thanks for the pictures. Ive heard about the rollers but never actually seen them.

    D-17 Hand Clutch Jumping out of High Range

    After I rebuilt the engine in my D-17 Series IV, the hand clutch jumps out of high. Doesnt matter if its under a load or just going down the road down hill. It does seem to vibrate a little. Not sure if it did that before or not. I replaced the clutch and in order to get the clutch to fit...

    D17 rebuild

    I just spent probably an hour putting out some info on a rebuild that I did last summer and it says it couldnt be posted. Any ideas why?? To long, timed out?

    Things I learned on D17 Engine rebuild.

    Its be four months since I finished the engine rebuild, rear rim rebuild and whatever else needed attention at the time. I had many problems along the way which were a combination of nnalert, (many problems with parts quality and availability), and this being my first sleeved engine. I was...

    D-17 sleeve sealant Bush Hog Papa

    I suppose they could have been bad from the start. The engine has been rebuilt once before that I know of so its hard to say.

    D-17 sleeve sealant Bush Hog Papa

    The sleeves fell right in before I put the orings on. I could spin them too. Im thinking that I at least need to make the bottom bore in the block round again. They are already larger than the specs that the supplier gave me. Im afraid of a possible leak so thats why Im thiinking about extra...

    D-17 sleeve sealant Bush Hog Papa

    Bush Hog Papa, I am wondering if you could list the part number or actual name of the non hardening sealer that you use for sleeves. Do you apply it on the oring area before installing or after? I have had alot of problems with the sleeves. Apparently the bores in the block are out of spec...

    Out of spec sleeve kit D17

    I thought that people were using the WD pistons to get more compression. I might have misunderstood. I'll check it out as soon as they get here and so maybe I will be sending them back.

    Out of spec sleeve kit D17

    They were full round pistons. I talked to the guy that runs the engine machine shop in the locale town and he thought it would run alright but it would probably rattle especially on start up. So I took them back. It would have been nice if there was information with the kit mentioning changes...

    Out of spec sleeve kit D17

    Unfortunately I already returned it and its a 4 hour round trip. Now Im looking for sleeves and pistons but not having much luck. The flat tops are sold out wherever I have checked so far. And anything in the 8-8.25/1 range is not available at least where Im looking. Im kind of stuck. Im...

    Out of spec sleeve kit D17

    I checked my mic with the standard. The fact that I used the same mic for the pistons as I did for the sleeves would take care of that as far as clearance. I thought about that too. Im not a professional machinist but have been using these tools for around 40 years. Thinking that it might...

    Out of spec sleeve kit D17

    I bought an Agco sleeve kit PN 79015760for my D17 series IV and when checking the clearances on the pistons to sleeves I found that they didnt match the Allis service manual. Manual said sleeves to be 4.000-4.001 and I had one that was at 4.001 but the other three were 4.0022, 4.0025 and...
