    MCII MEP-805B

    I omitted, the oil sender unit is not likely a culprit, we chose those while a bit of odd value 24vdc and 1-5 volt output, we took Deere's total experience and used every accessory they recommended, so the core package is totally solid and Deere has no plans to stop using that engine , in fact...
