      Yepp just keep a eye on the bowl  that is a easy way to keep from having issues.  On my tractor it came with a plastic bowl that was not clear I changed it out to glass so it is much easier to see in. And I assume you are having trouble with the front drive shaft ? The only thing I know is to avoid driving on a hard surface in 4- wheel drive, that takes any tire size difference from placing undue tension on the balls. hahhahah

        A automotive universal clutch tool might be available at a parts house, I am guessing it should work. All I have that way is some plastic ones of  unknown size and spline count.

          I remember hearing about this problem and damn it I can not remember about setting the limiter so it does not happen again. But that is something that needs to be done .,sorry about losing my mind.

            thinking more about this, I think if you have not done this is to check the head for being warped .We do not know what went on before you got the tractor. It can be done with a good straight edge or a machine shop that does heads. Look at the block too with the straight edge. and the Chinese gaskets are hard , I do not know what you think of using copper kote gasket spray but that might be something you want to look at if there is a very slight warpage not worth a resurfacing job. just a thought.

              well that kinda sucks but on the bright side you got the problem on the run with a heli-coil installed, run it enough to say that it is ok but not enough to warp the head and it is redo time cause I do not believe that the heli-coil can be installed with the head on,, sorry. just think how good you will be at this when it is really done.

                about the timing if you did not pull the pump off or pull the front gear cover off all should be as it was. there is not a timing chain on these it is all gear to gear timed. and yeah the decompression lever has to be right or you will not have enough compression to light it off. I believe it holds the exhaust valve open to assist in cold weather starting, the only  time I use mine is if I want to prime the fuel system it takes much less amps to drive the starter motor.

                  I assume you verified the glow plugs are heating?( some diesels need the heaters regardless of outside temps on a cold start)  You might want to verify that your valve clearances are correct.(better a little lose than to tight) And I assume that you did not mess with any pump timing.  Did you get a compression gauge if so use it again to eliminate lack of compression as why it wont light off. (hope not) good luck

                    how would you get out the clutch alignment tool in or out or torque the pressure plate?? the access plate I believe is not near the  clearance you would need. or am I missing what you are saying?

                      well time with the kids is priceless. on the steering I wonder if it has air in it , like crack the inlet and get the air out there and then go to the outlets to the cylinders and bleed , might have to rack the steering back and fourth to purge the control valve, if you have not done that already.

                        you should be able to buy assm. lube at any parts store if you do not want to make your own. On placing the gaps of the rings on the piston I make sure that they all are on a different place  even the wipers and as far apart as possible. May be a you tube video could reaffirm my thoughts. just take the info. there as questionable as we know some people are well just idiots.
