    1975 Ford 3550 key on power

    Unfortunately, we're pretty sure it's not the petcock. I felt around there and didn't feel anything wet. Any particular puller for the steering wheel?

    1975 Ford 3550 key on power

    Are there any tutorials on removing the diesel fuel tank? Any tips or tricks? After all that, we now believe our fuel tank is leaking. All of the fuel leaked out except about 1/2" .over 2 days. I sucked air into the injection pump, because I didn't notice it was out of fuel when I tried to...

    what are the fuel line connectors on a1963 John Deere 4010 diesel?

    I have everything but the fittings. What are they called? What do I need to buy for male? For female? Do you have a link?

    what are the fuel line connectors on a1963 John Deere 4010 diesel?

    what are the fuel line connectors on a1963 John Deere 4010 diesel? Are they AN8? I don't know my fittings. I want to go from the factory fuel line to a 5/16 hose barb for a while. And then easily go back to factory. Thanks

    Toro 223D with Mitsubishi L3E engine Low Compression. Where to find new pistons?

    I got my Mitsubishi parts from a place in Indiana. This is the guy I have been happy dealing with for parts. Michael Beyer. He's no longer in parts, but was much better than the new parts kid. He knew more of the top of his head, about the older machines than the new kids ever will Parts...

    Toro 223D with Mitsubishi L3E engine Low Compression. Where to find new pistons?

    Which is why we bought a Ford & Honda last time. They seem to have more parts not made in China than GM. GM also closed down my favorite GMC dealer, for no good reason when they were reorganizing.

    Toro 223D with Mitsubishi L3E engine

    If ever you run a diesel without a fuel shut off, make sure you have a piece of plywood or some other method, and are prepared, to block air from the engine - to kill a runaway. This applies to any diesel. There's quite a variety of reasons for runaways

    Toro 223D with Mitsubishi L3E engine

    Check your air filter, change the lift pump filter. Maybe the fuel filter, if you haven't yet. Valves need to be checked - .010 and head bolts retorqued. - that's part of the valve adjustment program. Start at top dead center. There is no timing mark that I have ever seen. There's a cross...

    Ok. On whatever picture I looked at, the line was identified as a return line. I thought it was in the Ford Service manual. I know where the return that goes to the injectors is. Thanks for setting me straight. I'll leave the line in.the out port.

    Did you have the injectors rebuilt? Buy new? Anymore, Even new injectors need to be tested and balanced.

    Toro 223D with Mitsubishi L3E engine

    There's a good used Toro parts place in Florida. The guy is very knowledgeable about these older machines. I posted info on the Facebook Toro Groundsmaster pages. Be sure to service the rear axle pivot bushings. They're not very thick brass bushings. If they where through, it's much more of...

    Toro 223D with Mitsubishi L3E engine

    I've seen those engines go 5,000 hours without much additional work other than routine maintenance. Which includes the head bolt and valve adjustment. Have you verified your glow plugs are working correctly? Search glow plugs for Mitsubishi L3E I'm not sure which forum I posted that...

    1975 Ford 3550 key on power

    There's an out arrow and an in arrow on both sides of the pump. 3 ports are used. One is plugged. On the left side, incoming to the tank appropriately goes to an in port. The line going from the filter housing to the Cav pump is approximately on the out port. On the right side the...

    1975 Ford 3550 key on power

    According to the Ford manual, the built in Cav lift pump is supposed to put out 8 - 9 psi. Reminds me of those that said the exhaust and wiring on the old 6.5's was just fine because engineers designed it. And that the Jeep Liberty CRD and Duramaxs didn't benefit from a lift pump because they...
