    ZB600C-1 engine info?? Help??

    ZB600 engines were used in Carrier Silver Hawk reefer units. I would think parts, manuals, etc could be bought at a Carrier Transicold dealer. I believe Trane also used them. See you are in BC. Vancouver has a number of Transicold dealers.

    D600 hard start heavy white smoke until running

    D600 hard start heavy white smoke until running

    D600 sat for many years (one outside). It is a 1800 RPM (I think) engine out of a reefer. Engine would turn over easily with wrench on crank. When I drained the oil, it had several cups of clear water in it. I assume rain water, because stack is pointed up and had a plastic bag stuck in it...

    Oil type question

    Kubota man No .......... It is I, that apologize for hijacking your thread with a rant. You asked type of oil and not brand. The Amsoil commercial just rubbed me wrong way this time. Again I apologize.

    Oil type question

    A man born blind can feel the warmth of the sun on his face. BTW If you never had Timmies, maybe you just shouldn't express your opinion about it or mention the fact, that you just hate doughnuts. Why would I use uncertified oil? Just because you said it is great stuff and sell it? Save...

    Hydraulic contorl for snow blwoer chute rotation??

    JWATT51 Nice job. I'm thinking of trying that out. Would mounting it upside down help with preventing moisture entering the actuator? Does the bracket only have one bolt in it so it pivots? Was looking to do something hyd like this, but the actuator would be less expensive. The valve and...

    bx2200

    If the tractor won't shut off, because of fuel shut off problem, use the fuel shut off lever on the injector pump. There are two levers on the pump. One is connected to the throttle and the other is hooked up to nothing. That is the shut off lever. Just push the lever and the engine will...
