It has been a while I tried getting the fuel pump to break free nothing seemed to work so I Ended up getting a new one Got the tractor started so I could check what I thought was the problem from the beginning it was a Cracked head See photo Got a new head, need two things. What are the torque specs on the two nuts that hold the injector in place. What would cause the head to crack like that. I did find out it is a jinma Diesel engine y385. In a Taskmaster tractor thank you
Good morning
When I started working on the tractor I noticed the sediment bowl, I need to get one, but did notice when i took off the first fuel line II there was a plastic screen filter thing inside the banjo fitting it was torn. as far as VII it is stuck in the down position and will only turn 3/4 a turn in either direction till it feels jammed up. Now, what I think is not so good news, I removed the oil drain plug on the IP and nothing came out, (temp outside is low 40s) I am going to assume that when I asked the actual owner have you ever changed the oil in the IP, (deer in the headlights look) it never happened. SO……stupid question what if I fill the IP with Blaster and some oil, let it sit, run the pump, let it sit repeat a few times drain fill with oil and try again??? don’t LAUGH with me too hard.. the option of doing what bosch says to do with a stuck pump is ?????? frightening , I have never worked on diesel before so this entire project is a learning experience for me.. thank you again for your insight
thank you for assisting, I don’t think it has been totally out of fuel for the entire time, trying to work on it a bit at a time fuel has ran thru a few times.. Attached is a photo with numbers
I. removed and cleaned out the fuel tank
II., III,IV also checked these lines, and changed the fuel filter. The transfer pump which I think is between II and III moves fuel up to IV and when V is loosened also lets fuel out, I removed VI and cranked for a minute or so and no fuel gets past VI. in the past we cracked the return lines above the injectors at the head and no fuel comes out. (second photo)
on another note I do believe VII is a hand pump how do you get it to unlock? if my terminology is off please let me know.
