    Brake Shoe Issues

    I hope I'm not going to sound too stupid here, but I've had plenty of experience with hydraulic drum brakes on cars, but this is my first with purely mechanical brakes on a tractor. I have a mid 1980's YM2610D that I acquired last year. The existing brakes would barely slow the tractor and...

    No dots on new piston rings

    I'm getting ready to put new rings on my new pistons for my Yanmar 2610, 3T80 engine. I know you're supposed to put the ring on with the dot up, but there are no dots on any of the rings including the outer oil ring. The only thing I find is a slight groove cut into the outer diameter of #3...

    Lost Post

    I was previously on the Hoye forum that moved over here, but in the process a post "Starter RPMs" I had on that site got lost. I was told Winston or Bret might know what happened to it as there was some good info on it I wanted to save.
