    3020D clutch adjustment while on tractor

    Thanks, I'm gonna go back at it this weekend. I'm going to try to freeing up of the clutch disc first and if that doesn't work I'm going to grind down a 9/16 so I can get it on the inside nut to hold it in place so I can loosen the outside nut and go from there.

    3020D clutch adjustment while on tractor

    That could be as it sat outside for years and years. It lives in a garage now but I haven't worked it any or driven it very far at all since I finished the body work.

    3020D clutch adjustment while on tractor

    If I adjust the clutch pedal so there is no free travel in it, the fingers are touching the release bearing

    3020D clutch adjustment while on tractor

    My clutch isn't fully releasing, it is an SR tractor. I have both a shop and a service manual for it but both only talk about adjusting the assembly with it off the tractor and using the JD setup tool. This was my Dad's tractor, it had not been used for several years before he passed. I had it...

    3010 hydraulic pump coupler

    When I first started restoring my Dad's ol 3020, it took me a bit to figure out the pump coupler was shot, when I took it apart there were no rubber parts remaining, just bolts on metal so you can imagine how it was rattling. The housing was to worn for the new rubber bushings but one I bought...

    Battery Problem

    What is the battery voltage when you shut off the tractor? Battery hydrometers aren't expensive and you can test the specific gravity of each cell, anything over 1.265 is overcharged. I assume you used a single wire alt? Car battery should last a long time but I used an interstate marine...

    Tachometer update

    Good to hear. Since the original on my Dad's old 3020 hadn't worked in years, I just bought a new one. I think this one was about 105 bucks, there are less expensive ones but they have the PTO in the wrong spot.

    Headlight installation on 4020

    I just finished restoring my Dad's old 3020, I took everything apart and painted it then bought new light housings. I ended up having to run ground wires down to the batteries to get the lights to work as I had taken the fenders off and painted then, painted the axle housings while they were off...

    new techecneque for a 4020 turbo set-up

    Perhaps we got off on the wrong foot. I understand that the internet hides who is behind the keyboard, both good and bad. I have a good understanding of BMEP, MAF tables, STFT, LTFT, manifold BAR sensors, fuel trim tables etc. Since there are none of those here, I assume (say on a 3020) you...

    new techecneque for a 4020 turbo set-up

    That's pretty cool. Not being familiar with these kits, how does a mechanically fuel injected engine compensate for above atmospheric manifold pressure?

    3020 Lifting Arms

    I was never able to get mine unstuck. I tried the half/half tranny fluid and acetone mix suggested on here, after 2 weeks of soaking I went to regular water as suggested somewhere else on here. I hit them with hammers etc and I could get break free to flow from the lifted grease seal on top to...

    3020 tachometer

    New aftermarket ones are only 70 bucks so that is what I did, I would like to find that place that sets hours on the replacements though.

    3010 24v to 12v what starter?

    I wasn't saying anyone should buy it, was just referencing the pic of what the starter looks like. I actually bought mine from the place you mention but paid 50 more for it IIRC and the ebay pic looks identical to kit kit I received from the place you mentioned. I'm sure many of these...

    4010 DIESEL Row Crop What Size Rear Tire

    My 68 3020D row crop has 15.5/38s on it...which I thought was the preferred tire on row crop tractors due to narrower width.

    3010 24v to 12v what starter?

    I recently converted my 3020D to 12V. I just bought the kit. I'm not sure the brand of starter that comes with it but it is a gear reduction starter and looks like this kit...
