Re: Suspected Fuel Pump trouble
There are two ways to mount the pump. If it is on time, the engine will start. If the engine does not start, the pump is turned 180 degrees. Best is to make a mark with a center punch befor removing.

Re: Primary gearbox stuck in high
That's right Mathias. Leeroy, It's a common problem. Take it apart and clean it. Look for sharp edges or dents in both the woodruff key and holes and file them away. Check the threads. Put it back together. Feel when the woodruff key falls deepest into the hole by moving the handle up and down and t...

I know the vacuum governed pump needs no oil it uses the leak diesel to grease. Don't know if your pump needs oil.

Re: Starter motor whine and overheating
Good news.
Do you have a volt meter?
Load the battery. Put it on the right poles and start. When the Voltage is going under de 10V while starting its moost likely that the battery is bad.

Re: Major restoration
All Majors for the Super had this rattling sound. It was characteristic because of the pertinax coupling. The later Supers had a sort of rubber and was much quieter. An employee of a dealer once told me that he had spent hours looking for the cause of a badly running Major. In the end, the coupling ...

Re: Major restoration
Check the coupling from the dieselpump and the timing. Sometimes its not tight enough and changes the settings.

Re: Crank Pulley Removal Tool (home made!)
Nice tool.
I have done the job two times. Last time i put a speedy sleeve on it. Now two years later it's leaking again.
Now I'm trying to find a Viton seal for it, but have not found one yet. Looks like there are none for this size.
Anyone who has a tip?

Icom, Thats a problem. The bleu should be EMPIRE BLEU. But!!!!! The same name will give different shades by different supliers and different sorts of paint. The same for orange. Mine has RAL 2009 traffic orange on the wheels and 5017 traffic bleu on the tractor. I know it's the wrong colour. The ble...

Re: '57 Major, hydraulic faliures - Opinions?
Hair bear,
Bad news.
Cylinder is normal cast iron.
It would be no big deal machining a new one, but where do you get a bar of cast iron and you need a lathe and someone who can use it.
I think a breaker would be the best option.
