Its a lot easer just to take off two screws and check the fuel control for free movement. I like that better then going into panic mode!!! With the engine off the fuel control should be around the 7 o''clock position and with your finger you should be able to push it to the rear to about the 4...
That bolt /oil filter problem needs to be address. I have never worked on a G pump so I don't know if it lets oil into the IP and is injected if not caped off. You could have other problems other than just a leaking head O ring. As I said look over the TM I listed and the LDS 465 troubleshooting...
If I remember the number #11 slip collar does not go tight up to the rear yoke. That collar when locked on the shaft allows the slip joint to move in just a bit. What it does is if the shear pin breaks the collar stops the PTO shaft from moving backwards from the winch input shaft and spinning...
Check fluids. Remove the shut down cover and make sure the fuel control is not stuck and moving free. Leave the shut down pull cable out in the shut down position and crank the engine over to check for hydro lock.
Also all ways leave the shut down cable pulled out when you walk away from the...
Look at TM 9-2910-226-34 page 3-75. If you do indeed have a G pump then the correct heads are HD 9065A and HD 9085A as they have the oil passage. On that same page it tells us if we use another head that does not have the oil passage we must block off the passage in the IP. Good thing would be...
I bet the two Allen plugs were put there when the axle housing was spected for the ball type axle. The old axle housing might have been up graded to the newer cross style later or maybe someone did not tell the manufacture to stop putting them in after the up grade. If you do one side at a time...
Tell me really you did not put oil in your knuckles. For know keep you axle filled to the second knuckle on you finger and the axle knuckle drained. You have cross type u joint axles. Also buy having clean knuckles that means without packing grease in them for no reason if you go fording you can...
Yep we put grease in the old Timken style ball axle so as to grease the old style CVJ with the balls. There is no way a spinning cross type u joint will allow grease to enter the needle bearings. It just slings the grease off before you go one mile down the road. That is why when you take them...
Most likely the lip of the forward sprag preformed packing has folded over because of rust on the cylinder walls. Working in back and forth might cause it to catch once and awhile and sound different or less air or more air. It still needs to be rebuilt no matter what. See here is the lip that...
As Chris said maybe some JB weld to fill in the pits around the gasket edge. If there are deep pits in the aluminum with that white corrosion clean the housing well with solvent to remove all grease /oil. Then use apple cider vinegar on the pits and it will eat out the corrosion but not hurt the...
Dumb moment not quite. Stupid moment yes! M816 should not to be playing in mud pit. Played for a couple of hours and watching for any deep holes that others are staying away from. Time to leave and I cut across the side of the pit and what looked to be a hole maybe 20x20. No problem but wait why...
And have someone loan you one. Did you say you were missing some washers? I have a complete used hub gear set with everything but the hub thrust washer. I was starting to get worried that I would have to take a road trip but I see you are getting it done. Good job.
