Just thought I'd drop by say hi and tell ya how impressed I am with my lil diesel engine Here is a video taken at our local light up parade of my machine in action Kids love the donuts and figure 8's http://youtu.be/v4xfluC3T0Q And a cold start video http://youtu.be/3s7Bc0Fk1yg Broke an axle...

Just got a shop in lower mainland BC Canada who can bring in parts for me finally. The coppers and O rings are ordered as of yesterday and should be arriving soon. I'm not sure when I'll get them 2-3 days perhaps. I'll give them a try and hope it clears it up. If the above does not work I'll...

Wow, no one has any suggestions or tips to stop the leaks...WOW...

Well I have a leak out of the IP that's a royal PITA. Engine is running fine, so it seems, however this thing is just pouring fuel out of one unit IP. Bottom line I've got to figure out how to solve this. I am thinking new copper washers and O rings for the unit IP or PFR pump. Any...

K spent quite some time revamping my six wheeler and it's all in my build thread. Just got a quote 225 canadian to go through the IP ugh, as it still leaks like crazy. However that being said the unit now rests in the Muscateer and has significantly changed how it works...It works very very...

Whatchutalkinbout Willis? Is it this stuff here!:D Cause that stuff there is the DA BOMB...seriously it's really good. This is recomended by many pump builders for diesel engines so It is what I'm hunting down locally. JM2CW Al

I looked and that style of heater though looking good to start with invariably doesn't seem to fit, the one core plug exiting on the side of the head is right in line with fuel inlet to IP and so that heater won't work either...DOH:( I'm not sure either how you can loose oil out the cooling...

Thanks for that link, I'll check and see what dia the plug is IIRC 28 MM or 26MM so I'd have to see about a smaller one. Regardless it's a great idea to work from right?

Wow that's really helpfull, would you have a link to it? I'd surely be interested in more information:D

man...I feel like such a heel for poluting the ops thread now...doh.. Now to what motor are you speaking? The STARTER MOTOR on the ZB600C Engine? You must want to make some type of electrically driven tractor to want to use a motor... LOL Would uou be creating a hybrid of sorts with your motor...

YOU Are correct, I've made a huge ass dumb ass mistake on those parts, I came into this tread with the same turn up IP question... MY BAD I'm not too proud to mention I effed up in that respect. I apologize to the OP and to anyone else whom I may have confused in the thread. I have so many...

I have been doing this, and just got a parts manual in, this should assist me further in turning it up and also hopefully being able to get a few more RPM out of it too. Well thought about this too, may be kind of difficult though but something to consider. It isnt being impatient, it's all...

so thought time for update, managed to secure a deal on a RHB31 turbo to crank some boost into this little engine. I also have a guy who will rebuild the injectors and help me deal with rebuilding the IP as well. this turns out rather well for me as the old gas Tecumseh HH120 12HP engine is...

Thanks, I think that's just what I needed. It is similar in function the the Kent Moore J33300 timing meter I use to time diesel engines. Which I'll be testing on the Kubota to see how the timing is on it too! Wow thanks again that's just so great!;)

Hi, Got a Muscateer AATV amphibious atv 6x6 like an Argo that I"m going to install a Kubota ZB600C-1 engine into. A 2 cyl water cooled diesel engine!:D I'm wanting to add a tach and would like to know HOW to do that??? Anyone????

Thanks, for the info, Ya Vancouver would be about the only location for any parts. Fleabay has starters and GP's but that's bout it. Still need know how to turn up fuel a bit LOL Bosch K type mini pump....has to be some info out there somewhere????:D

Thanks for the reply, I'm aware of what these where used in unfortunately NOT in Canada and no support locally what so ever. Hence the reason I'm here, searching for some leads to where parts can be had etc. Thanks Al

Perhaps I'm not fully explaining myself, clearly, take a look here! http://www.orangetractortalks.com/forums/showthread.php?t=11826 Then look at the build thread, linked in the thread and thats when you one will inderstand this setup is not in a tractor. I'm wanting more power cause I can..LOL...

I fully understand the cause and effect and potential for problems when turning up a Diesel. My shop contains some the timing gear to set the timing on this machine quite accurately if need be. Turning pump up and letting out a bit of smoke may just overheat the pistons yes, but I'll throw a...

No one has any leads on parts or anything? Come on...you guys supposed to be IN THE KNOW!
