    D17 226 cylinder sleeve

    Thank you Fritz for the link. Yesterday evening after what I thought was an exhaustive 3-day scrounging of the interweb for new 4” sleeves, I ordered a 4.125” sleeve & piston kit for an AC170 to up the compression. I got this idea after reviewing the removed pistons and guessing they might be...

    D17 226 cylinder sleeve

    Hello AC fans. I am in process of rebuilding my D17 226” gas engine, & have never done this before. I have a couple scenarios w/ associated questions I hope you might help with. 1) Yesterday I pulled all the cylinder sleeves b/c of pitting in #2 & #3, planning to put in all new sleeves. I...

    D17 intake valve spring retainer (gas, 226 cu in)

    Hi all. A broken intake valve spring looks to have taken part of the shoulder off of its associated intake valve spring retainer (cup). No pic to include, sorry. This particular piece looks like a large area steel washer with a short shoulder around the outside edge (this piece goes on the...

    D17 governor issue?

    Has anyone else opened up an AGCO 70240912 oil filter? During this journey through my governor “event”, I open the oil filter to see if any metal particulates were captured there and was surprised by what I found; I was expecting more traditional accordion-style filtering media -vs- what the...

    D17 governor issue?

    Update: The good, the bad, and the ugly! A couple days ago, I disassembled the front end, pulled the timing cover off and retrieved the last known remaining chunk of weight (pic), and was pleased to not find more “shrapnel” (I attribute this to having utilized a homemade tiny hose to vacuum...

    D17 governor issue?

    I got a good number of bits & pieces out. Rigged a small set of various flexible tubing to make a vacuum (like during the dentist visit) and removed a good number of smalls. The pic with the piece circled in red is the last one, but it is wedged/jammed/worn into its current position and can’t...

    Brian, your experience finding the “shrapnel” is encouraging, and I’m a fan of the innovative one-of tools. It’ll be another 10-12 days before I can get the in-depth search going inside my engine. I’ll report back 👍

    D17 governor issue?

    So I opened it up, and you were correct — the governor had shed both of the weights. I found only the one weight when I removed the front cover from the governor, noticed a couple corners of the cam gear chipped off, and the governor + ignition gears in perfect shape. I ordered new weights...

    Thanks for the insight. This weekend the weather is going to be decent, so I will crack it open to see what “Easter eggs” are within. Thank you much. (Oh, and I will report back 👍).

    D17 governor issue?

    Hello Allis forum. I’m hoping for some insight from you knowledgeable/experienced peeps. I was mowing a few days ago with my D17 when the engine suddenly began to “over rev”. Not just a little, but waaaayy high rpm. I immediately got the engine throttle lever to the idle position, and the...
