    JD 2040 Removing Injection Pump and how to keep timing

    Ok, I was able to find a parts breakdown for the IP from a UK site: https://injectionpumps.co.uk/interactive/interactive-cav-dpa-parts-diagram.htm Seems like the Advance Housing can be possibly removed without removing the IP. I believe all I need is the gasket. Not exactly sure if I can order...

    JD 2040 Removing Injection Pump and how to keep timing

    My JD 2040 is from year 1980. The injection pump is ROtodiesel AR 91769. It is leaking a lot of diesel around the governor at bottom of the injection pump. I believe the gasket on the governor has failed. I would like to pull the injection pump and send it out for a rebuild, last rebuild was...

    JD 2040 (year 1980) rock arm (bushhog) stuck in up posit

    Hit a stump or log bushhogging (common problem on my farm). The draft control will normally raise the bushhog when it hits something (feels resistance), I also raised the lever to elevate it slightly. Apparently the draft control raised it up into the full up position, but it will not go back...

    JD 855 forward/reverse petal not going back to neutral p

    Just purchased an 855 compact tractor (year 1997). Had not been run very much for 4 years. Serviced fluids and used for a couple hours, forward and reverse petals were very stiff, but when you stopped pushing on them, the petal would come back to neutral and machine would come to a stop as it...

    JD 2040 4WD Front Wheel Trunnion removal

    My JD 2040 Trunnion bearing failed (and also the Cross U-Joint) There is a top and bottom of the same trunnion and bearing set, which allow the wheels to turn based on steering wheel input. I have it all apart except for getting the trunnion removed. I have sprayed with penetrating spray...

    RE:SennaMiller

    wanted to provide the outcome from my JD2040 fuel issue. The symptoms were that the engine when at idle varied in RPM, then cut out and would not restart. I had just purchased the tractor 4 weeks prior, so started to diagnose. Noticed the fuel filter has black tar in the bottom, was told it...

    SennaMiller, 2040 fuel problem

    Jim.ME - thanks for compiling the responses...I am going to try to clean the JD2040 IP check valve and the IP fuel strainer at the input to see if that solves, as based on bleeding at the IP lower and upper bleed points, I have good flow to the IP. If it does not, then I will need to clean/blow...

    RE:SennaMiller

    TX Jim, thanks again. I will try the "check valve" with the top IP bleeder open to start engine to see if that is it and will order some good open ended wrenches (my sizes are only up to 9/16). Once I can get the tools and be able to check both IP input fuel filter screen and the check value...

    JD 2040 Algae in fuel filter, replaced, ran for 5 minutes

    I just purchased this JD 2040 4 weeks ago, it was not used too heavily in recent year by the prior owner. Put a lot of hours brushcutting in the past week, then started having RPM varying when near idle, then cut out. Found that bottom of fuel filter had black tar-looking algae. Replaced fuel...
