    What in the heck is this on my intake?

    Why is there a line going from the fuel filter pair directly to the intake nipple.... was doing a modification and was like..... ok so unless I'm mistaken this is going to just suck a little diesel into the intake at all times. Really primitive lift pump?

    Re-Turboing the old perkins t6 354.4..... I think

    I did find the correct turbo, anyone know what size the intake side hose and the charge air side hose usually is on this engine usually. Trying to configure everything correctly so I don't have to keep waiting on orders

    Re-Turboing the old perkins t6 354.4..... I think

    There are specific parts to make the turbo fit exactly as intended. Thoes are hard to get but a few adapter plates and some patience will have it back to the turbo configuration again. It is possible they had a turbo explode and just popped a manifold they had on it, plug the holes and moved on.

    Re-Turboing the old perkins t6 354.4..... I think

    Ironically we have a White 105 as well. It appears to use a slightly different block design and different head, also different turbo position than the 354s I usually see. My biggest issue is the compatible turbo is a twin scroll that splits the exhaust into 2 streams until through the turbo. My...

    Re-Turboing the old perkins t6 354.4..... I think

    Oh btw if you wonder about the Silicone...... we bought this used and somone had broke off and re welded the dip stick..... making the tube substantially longer. Oil was coming from weird places from the overfill. I found this out from putting a camera inside just to see the inside..... and saw...

    Re-Turboing the old perkins t6 354.4..... I think

    Years ago we got a perkins 3544 that we put a pump on, it works good but if you run it too hard the stack can start to glow which I caught before it went too far. Also burns a bit extra fuel... not much just enough to be detected by a tech. So one day I looked up the seriel number...

    Black diesel? (Not in a tractor)

    50/50 heating oil and waste oil is a common one too. I would probably let it go through coffee filters just add a bit whenever I'm going by until I get a bunch cleaned up. I think the 90/10 gas/oil one burned very hot so cleaner

    Black diesel? (Not in a tractor)

    So every year I have 300 trillion metric tons of used oil that ends up sitting in my barn for years until someone will take it. Then I spend tons and tons on heating oil for greenhouses and such. I know you can buy super expensive waste oil burners but I have also seen videos of people making...

    John deere 7130 impossible issue please help.

    It taps in on the bottom of the block and returns to the suction of the main pump. When the thermostat is open coolant has 3 possible paths. The radiator with the main lines, a little 1/2 inch line for constant circulation and the heater core lines. When the thermostat is closed it can only go...

    John deere 7130 impossible issue please help.

    Before the new pump I had installed a electric booster pump on the heater line which gave me heat. After the new coolant pump I still had no heat so reinstalled the booster pump. It fixed my engine circulation issue though. Earlier I had used a garden hose to flush the heater core and it seemed...

    John deere 7130 impossible issue please help.

    Well the new water pump definitely helped circulation alot, didn't fix my heat.... everything is improved except the air issue is somehow worse???

    JD water pump

    This one when I looked at the new vs old the old had 1.5 x the impeller to casing clearance and just with a gentle hammer tap could slide in and out enough to go from that clearance to jammed against the case . I haven't gotten it on yet but I'd say it is definitely the pump

    JD water pump

    4000 hours or so... 15 years ish. To put it simply as I already have another post on overall trouble shooting this machine it cannot push to the heater core except at high RPM. Had to put an electric pump in line to get heat as a temporary fix. Also I looked online at videos of people...

    JD water pump

    This is the old pump, not getting good flow, nothing is plugged in the system and the only thing I can see is theres a fair bit of clearance on the suction side of that impeller. I always thought they were supposed to almost be touching the case

    JD water pump

    Just a quick question.... in most JD water pumps how much clearance is normal between the impeller and the suction side of the pump case. I was having flow issues but couldn't see issue with the pump so was going to try to take the impeller off. Undid the snap rings and tried to tap the shaft...
