    ym1500 starter

    Yea I've got one of their older model starters which looks to be the same physical thing they have now, I was just wondering if there were any alternatives to starters such as a gear reduction or if anyone has tried anything with other starters. During this winter I noticed in the -40 wind chill...

    ym1500 starter

    Does anyone know of any high torque starters for the ym 1500s. I've done some research and I came up with a hitachi starter s114-230, just needing some verification if this will work or has anyone tried it. Most of the information I found gave a couple different starters. Just looking at options...

    ym 1500 fuel problem

    Well, lever and link are all the way to the left (wide open), it starts, runs and responds very well under a load. Thanks Norm and Winston for the help.

    ym 1500 fuel problem

    The rod is number 17 and I am tightening it down at the governor end, the fuel pump end just has the cotter pin and spacer. Norm are you referring to the lever and the link on the fuel pump?

    ym 1500 fuel problem

    After a stuck valve in the head (due to overheating), pushrod fell down and took out the fuel pump, replaced fuel pump along with doing an inframe overhaul and I can't get the engine to idle or take a load the way it used to. I've adjusted the rod between the fuel pump and the governer (which I...

    Rear Tiller for Yanmar 1500d

    I have a ym 1500 which is the same tractor without 4wd and I run a 5' king kutter tiller in my garden with no problems, in fact when I till the garden or do landscaping I usually sink the tiller to the half way point without really bogging down, I know it's a lot for that small of a tractor but...

    governer

    Alrighty, I did check out the compression tester and I made my own with some bar stock, I removed the number 1 injector and the closest thing I had to a compression gauge was a differential pressure tester, so I hooked it up and cranked it up to about 30 psi with both valves closed and number 1...

    governer

    Okay so today I went out and double/triple checked everything. I made sure the injector lines were on the right cylinders, made sure I had fuel coming out of them when the engine was cranking over, I've also got smoke coming out of the exhaust, so I guess my next question is how do you check...

    governer

    Nope didn't remove any pistons, just turned it over a few times with the oil pan off to check for any other damage that might have occured. I installed the new pump with the old shim and everything is working as far as the plungers on the pump riding on the cam lobes and movement, nothing is...

    governer

    I have definately got compression so I know that is not the problem. You can definately tell the compression strokes when she is turning over so I have to believe the rings and cylinders are good and when I had the head off I looked at the liners and pistons and there were no scorched marks or...

    governer

    I must have missed the spacer, I don't have it so I'll be locating that one somewhere on the toolbox. Thanks for the pic that really showed more detail on what I was missing. When I have the fuel lever pulled back (full fuel) and the lever has the slider on the pump all the way back I'm getting...

    governer

    Yep #17 would be the rod, the problem that I am having is when I tighten down the rod it does not move in the slot on the governer end, but when I leave it loose to allow it to move then it does not move the slide on the pump enough to allow enough fuel to come out to start the engine.

    governer

    I have a YM1500 which overheated and stuck a valve, after the valve stuck the pushrod fell down between the injector pump and the cam taking out the pump. So long story short I have replaced the injector pump pushrod, valve, had head machined, etc. and now I'm at the point of trying to get it...
