1555 overheats, No Power
IP: 74.103.153.21 Posted on June 29, 2011 at 07:55:37 PM by Steve Moyer
Larry- Have 1555 been running good. Recently started to over heat and had no power. Radiator was recored 2 years ago with new Thermostat. Question - Someone told me there were some problems with the original Delco Remy vaccum advanced Distributors. They have been changing them out. Could running that engine in a retarded degree cause overheating ? What are they recommending to replace that Dist.? Or do we need to look somewhere other than timing ?

IP: 75.104.169.137 Posted on June 29, 2011 at 08:11:15 PM by Larry Harsin
Yes, it sure could. If you run that engine with the timing retarded, it will cause the engine to overheat. If your vacuum advance is not working, simply set the timing at 22 degrees with the engine at full throttle and see if that helps. Otherwise, you are going to have to install a Mallory distributor, which does not have a vacuum advance either. Larry

1755 engine sluggish
IP: 74.103.153.21 Posted on June 29, 2011 at 07:49:41 PM by Steve Moyer
Larry - have 1755 - S/N 231-510-676. Engine is slow to accelerate. Best way to describe is that when throttle is maxed- RPM slowly climbs and does not even reach PTO speed. What has been done. Removed Air Cleaner / Muffler to remove any obstructions. No difference. Removed Return line to tank. There is fuel coming through to tank. Filters - Primary and Secondary have been changed. All of this made no difference to RPM. Wondering if fuel pump could be bad? - lever action fuel pump by filters? What would be the symptoms of that. Or could it be the Injection pump? Would like to know what you think. Thanks

The first thing I would do is make sure the lift pump is working properly. If that checks out, you are probably going to have to have the injection pump worked over. If you don't have a place to work on it, call Central Fuel Injection and talk to them. 712-362-4200. Larry

IP: 74.103.165.222 Posted on July 4, 2011 at 06:58:06 AM by Steve Moyer
We checked the lift pump as you suggested and in the process found a defect in the shut off cable, which was not allowing the shutoff lever to return fully on the injection pump and in effect was starving the pump for fuel. Thanks for your input.

1650 smokes
IP: 76.3.40.17 Posted on June 27, 2011 at 12:34:24 PM by Justin Gravitt
I have a 1650 diesel that smokes a white/dark gray smoke under moderate throttle, smoke seems blue at idle, but it does not seem to have much blow by out of the puke tube. It is fairly hard to start so I thought I would crack the lines on the energy cells, all have fuel driping from them but seems to still idle rough. Could you tell me your method of bleeding the lines, and how will I know if the nozzles are clogged.
Re(1): 1650 smokes
IP: 75.104.182.30 Posted on June 28, 2011 at 06:52:01 AM by Larry Harsin
It sounds to me like you are doing the bleeding properly. You could pull the caps off of the energy cells and see if they are plugged with carbon. If they are o.k., I would remove the injectors and have them checked. It is not unusual for this particular engine to act like this. Make sure the thermostat is working properly. If everything you do, as above, does not improve the way the tractor works, you may have just a tired engine. Larry
1855 injection pump
IP: 66.31.130.4 Posted on June 26, 2011 at 09:07:59 AM by dan
Looks like the plastic ring is shot in my 1855's inj pump. It was running then lost power. Now it will only run a few minutes at a time. I changed the filters and tested for flow att he lift pump. Pulled the timing cover off and there are the little bits of plastic in there. I was thinking of tackling this myself or, should I send to an pump shop? Is there anybody that you would recommend I can send it to if I go that route?

550 Pressure Plate adjustment
IP: 50.90.101.76 Posted on June 25, 2011 at 11:37:58 AM by Jeff
Had tractor apart and put in new clutch. The clutch didn't release fully. I split it and check finger height on the pressure plate. Of the three, none the same. I attempted to set it following the book, but I made no improvement. Before I split again and try I want to know at which point on the finger should I measure to and how should I have the plate? I had mine face down, shim stock underneath and I measured from the tip to the top of the stock. Should I have done this face up?
Re(1): 550 Pressure Plate adjustment
IP: 75.104.168.20 Posted on June 26, 2011 at 06:56:43 AM by Larry Harsin
One thing that I have found is when you have the clutch assembly bolted up to the flywheel, check to be sure that there is a bit of room between the PTO drive hub on the pressure plate and the clutch disk hub. I have had to grind some of the pressure plate hub away so that the clutch disk can back away from the fly wheel. Larry

I bought a "socket" wrench that is used to remove the hub on a Chevy 4X4, except the socket extends in rather than out and blocks its use "as is". I just cut the center out, rewelded in back on and I had my tool. Cost $22.00.

Fuel issue on 770
IP: 174.125.91.74 Posted on June 17, 2011 at 08:37:01 PM by Greg Arnett
First off I'll say that this 61' Oliver 770 is new to me from somebody who wanted their dad's tractor to go to somebody who would give it a good home. Ever since I've had it there have been fuel issues. I started out by rebuilding the carburetor, making sure the air filter was unobstructed and replacing the spark plugs. That didn't take care of it. Then I found out about the screen above the fuel bowl. When I took that down it was packed with junk above it. I figured I had it, but it still wouldn't run without the choke way out (especially if I was running at full throttle for a time). I checked the fuel flow and it still seemed light. I then found some junk in the gas tank and also up in the shut off valve assembly. I removed that and cleaned it out completely, removed the junk from the gas tank, blew out the fuel line with compressed air to make sure it wasn't blocked, and put it all back together. Again it seems like the choke needs to be way out for it to run properly. I'm wondering if in the whole process junk moved forward into the carburetor and I need to clean it out again. It also seems like the idle mixture screw and high speed adjustment just don't do much. I'm pretty stumped at this point, every time I think I've got it...I don't. Your help would be greatly appreciated!

IP: 69.72.27.94 Posted on June 18, 2011 at 12:11:39 PM by Larry from MD
I agree, but also check the carb gasket nose area between the 2 floats.This needs to seal good or the running circuits will not draw gas like they should and you will have to use the choke.The tractor will act up right away with this problem.With a slow flow the tractor will actup when it needs power.
Re(1): Fuel issue on 770
IP: 174.124.241.251 Posted on June 28, 2011 at 08:02:40 PM by Greg Arnett
I just thought I would give an update on this issue. Tonight I went back through it all again to hopefully get the issue resolved. Made sure the gas tank, valve assembly, fuel screen, and fuel line were all clean. Didn't find anything there. However, when I opened up the carburetor I had sucked a few small pieces (which I think were previously what I had seen above the screen way back when) into it. After cleaning out the carburetor and reassembling it all back together the ol' 770 ran like a champ. I pushed some stuff out in the woods and even opened it up at full throttle and went down the road just to make sure. Sure is nice to have it running properly!
1850 Diesel losing prime
IP: 69.168.144.151 Posted on June 15, 2011 at 07:12:59 PM by Todd D
My 1850 is losing the prime in the injection pump. I have changed filters this spring. When I go to start in the morning the tractor will start good as usual and run for 2-3 seconds then run out of fuel. I have no visable leaks in any lines or filters. There is good flow from the tank. I can prime it easliy with the fuel pump. It has the CAV pump. After I reprime the pump it seems to run good although the other day it had been running for 1/2 hour at about 1200 rpm and it started to sputter and miss and eventually died out. I reprimed later and it ran fine. Does not seem to be short of fuel when under a load. SHOULD I START BY CHANGEING THE FUEL PUMP?? Is there a one way check valve in this system?
Re(1): 1850 Diesel losing prime
IP: 75.104.168.15 Posted on June 16, 2011 at 06:17:46 AM by Larry Harsin
The fuel pump or "transfer pump" on the right side of the engine may be at fault there. It may have a check valve that isn't doing it's job. Also, make sure that adequate fuel is coming through the fuel strainer on the bottom of the tank. Larry

Re(1): Hydraulic Valve 55 Oliver
IP: 75.105.54.160 Posted on June 12, 2011 at 09:41:01 PM by Larry Harsin
It appears that there is a roll pin that is 1/8 inch x 1 1/8 inch long and fits in a slot in the valve that is leaking. You'll have to remove the main valve body from the tractor before you can remove the roll pin. After removing the roll pin, it should slide right out of there. Then, you can replace the O ring which is a 1/16" by 5/16ID. Larry

If you have the bolts too tight that hold the drums, that will cause your problem. It distorts the drums.Only tighten them enough to flatten out the lock washers and try that. I can not remember the torque, But is is not very much.Keep at least 2 inches of free travel in your pedals at all times. Put parking brake on when tractor is not in use. It keeps the drums and expanders from rusting up and being grabby. It tells you this in the owners manual. But i learned all this the hard way. If that does not work for you, shim it like Larry said.

After going to the remotes the oil goes to the 3 point hitch,so there is allways some back preasure on the remotes.I have measured anywhere from 60 to 650 psi,lowering the 3 point to the bottem usually lowers the psi.Hook them up and see if it works.They might be ok, or they might blow apart your cylinder.

Hi Larry, I purchased a Oliver 60 last week. I noticed that it has a fresh generator on it but the field is not hooked up. It doesn't have a light switch in it to hook up to. I was wondering if a regulator for fleetline tractor would work with the 60 generator? Thanks Gary

I don't know. It might work, but I can't say for sure. Larry

The original generator on the Oliver 60 was a third brush generator. The field circuit got it's current from the third brush on the commutator and went to ground through the light switch. When the switch was pushed all the way in the ground circuit went though a resistor for low charge. Pulled out one stop the circuit went directly to ground for high charge. Rate of charge was regulated by the position of hte third brush on the commutator. Yes you can use a regulator by wiring the field terminal to the "F" terminal on the regulator. If the holes don't line up on the generator you can mount the regulator remotely anywhere on the tractor.

I have a 1968 Oliver 1850 with the Perkins diesel. The injectors have never been repaired/replaced. The old girl is getting hard to start - is used daily, so fresh fuel, filters, all the usual. I am having the clutch replaced this week and am curious as to your thoughts on replacing the injectors. The injector pump is new and working wonderfully.. Thank you in advance for your time - much appreciated... Kevin

If they have never been checked, I'd sure have it done while it is in there. At least have them checked. Larry

Larry I have oil leaking out of my counter shaft. I have been using 303 in both the hydraulic system and transmission. I have to add fluid to both. Witch is likely to be leaking out the counter shaft? Could I use a heavier oil? Can I buy an overhaul kit for the counter shaft or do I have to buy seals individually?

I would put 90 w transmission oil in the transmission, to start with. It takes about 4 or 5 gal. That might stop it. What you are using is pretty light. If this doesn't work, then I would try the seals. Larry
