    1600 stuck engine

    I had trouble with the 880 for a while and had to run the choke, with the float sticking up, only partially open. It's worked itself out but might check that it is quite loose.

    420 oil pressure

    I got my 40 back from 'rebuild' because I thought I should leave the job to professionals. Came back with poor oil pressure. 1. Check that front seal is not blown (pretty big leak) 2. Replace the oil pump relief spring, it's not expensive or intrusive. 3a. You have to drop the pan, but check...

    Remanufactured 40 Starter DOA?

    Thanks, all, I returned the new starter and took the old one to a reputable shop in the area. They found that it needed a new armature within hours, and had parts on hand! Upon replacing it, added a new 0 guage lead to the starter and cleaned up the ground connection. Once that was done, It...

    Remanufactured 40 Starter DOA?

    Bought a remanufactured starter for the 40U. Yes, it is running 12V Negative Ground, though the starter is designed for 6V. Even got a new 12V battery. Absolutely no response through the switch or directly contacting the positive cable to the starter terminal after removing the switch. Any...

    880 oil filter.

    Thanks for that. That's the right Oliver part number. Baldwin shows the threads are 2 3/4 - 4, so you could put calipers on them to compare.

    880 throwout sleeve/tube

    Indeed. Finally got it running yesterday, fogged the cylinders again and it fired right up after being down way too long. Clutch takeup is now close to fully depressed and almost a light action, with return spring installed. Lesson 2. Point the PTO shaft higher than you think to line it up...
