    DB 990 front crankshaft seal replacement

    I have gone through about six David brown engines and I eyeballed the front seal on all of them. Another way to say it: I lined up the front cover / seal the best I could without the special tool. No leaks yet.

    Case David Brown 1210 Simms Injector Pump Install

    Go to this link and look on page 36 (paragraph 115-118) and see if that helps. I have never personally dealt with the Simms pump. My 1210 has a Bosch. https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/0B9-7bn5CX9NDdkxndmstR1NqTHc?resourcekey=0-B_etXxhxywnqKIy9egXvLg

    David Brown 880 shuts down

    Regarding the throttle lever revving in the opposite direction: The rebuilder must have mounted that little lever on the top of the injection pump 180 degrees out. That should be about a 10 minute fix for you to do on your own. Regarding the shut down problem: Have you taken off the fuel...

    David Brown 880 shuts down

    The fuel pick up inside the tank is clogged. Or the mesh screen inside the glass bowl on the lift pump is clogged. Fuel restriction somewhere.

    4430 Steering Motor Experts: I need your help!

    Well, to make matters even more confusing, I looked at the Technical Manual TM1057 (Service Manual for the 4430) and found the following diagram. They list parts #21 and #22 as “o-ring” and “back up ring”. This would correlate with the old parts that I removed from my tractor! But John Deere...

    David Brown/ Case ROPS

    Here is a nice ROPS on a DB885 parts tractor. Location: Damascus, AR. Not mine. You could buy the whole thing for what the guy is asking ($1500), then sell the loader to get all of your money back. Install the ROPS on your tractor, and you would have a ton of spare parts, and you will have...

    David Brown 995 - Furl Line ID

    That is the fuel line to the "thermostart" device, which looks like a spark plug screwed into the intake manifold. The line you are referencing is #4 in the attached photo.

    There are three tanks represented in these photos. I do not know if they leak and do not have the inclination to test them. They have both internal and external rust. They are free of charge. Local pick up only in Lafayette, Louisiana.
