Look at the last post in this thread http://forums.yesterdaystractors.com/viewtopic.php?t=436351 " The nozzle in the 585 MM has 1 large hole to shoot into the deep piston bowl, while the Hercules has 1 large hole and a small one." Isn't this the same as the multifuel...

Why do you say it doesn't have the swirl design?

Why could it go one way but not the other? They are virtually the same engine.

This thread talks about turning up the pump on the tractor engines to get more horsepower: http://talk.newagtalk.com/forums/thread-view.asp?tid=320653&DisplayType=nested&setCookie=1 Head studs being a problem were mentioned...

Why not? The tractor engines often get the multifuel pistons to facilitate easier starting. See this thread:http://www.yesterdaystractors.com/cgi-bin/viewit.cgi?bd=oliver&th=116171%253E http://forums.yesterdaystractors.com/viewtopic.php?t=603047

Not having any idea of the resulting outcome, it would be an expensive test. If you have the money to play around, probably better to try something newer like a DT360 or 5.9 cummins. Better oem and aftermarket support.

Based on the TMs, the LDS465-1/A has 175 HP. Hardly seems worth $2500 for the difference which can easily be made up with a tweak to the LDT's injection pump.

Turn up the fuel on an LDT; same thing and you can save $2500. It is only 40 or so HP difference.

The high compression hurts overall efficiency because it results in more frictional losses and more blow-by. It also causes higher peak cylinder pressures which stresses the engine. If you look at modern engines, they have lowered the compression ratio and increased the boost. The engine...

The question is are they actually selling for those crazy prices. I have noticed wild variations in prices on ebay. Water pumps range from $50 to $245 (yes, people are buying the expensive ones). One person is asking $129 for the screw in block heater; Amazon is $32. $8500 for a new multifuel.

I'd suggest hydraulic but there is a new air assist on that auction site for $1400 +$42 shipping. I'd use that as bargaining for your local power steering kit.

Any update?

Seems like this could be done a bit simpler using three 7812 voltage regulators; one for each L, R, T.

My heads didn't have these plugs. Another strange thing was that there were cast-in bridges going front to rear at the top of each cylinder adjacent to the pushrods. It appears that these bridges were crudely cut out using a torch. Metal splatter was still in the cylinder heads going down the...

I have a full rear exhaust on my truck and 395s. I can have a reasonably normal conversation at 55mph.

How will not turning the front drive shaft affect the life of the bushing in the front drive section of the transfer case?

AFAIK, the 12pt bolts have the same torque spec. We really aren't talking about increased clamp load as being a requirement. Instead, what we need is better fatigue resistance.

Diesels have new inserts installed all the time during an in-frame overhaul and aren't resized. Why would the multi be any different? If the new bolts are tightened to the same torque, what has changed?

If you do a google image search for: white 2-135, 2-155 farm tractor diesel injectors WORK GREAT! or white 2-135, 2-155 farm tractor diesel injection pump WORKS GREAT! you will find pictures from apparently expired ebay auctions showing what look exactly like mulfituel injectors and the...
