The original subject was "Oliver 70 timing gear update".
Mike French, are you able to share how you diagnosed the knock as timing gears? Were you able to find new gears, or did you replace with better used? I?ve got a 70 in-process that was rebuilt, but now has a knock. I?ve spent quite a bit of time listening with a stethoscope, but haven?t quite isolated problem. Looking to get a little better idea before I start tearing down, if possible. And hoping to find a gear source in case that?s the problem (haven?t checked AGCO yet).
