Little head gasket oil leak there, Or is it coming out of #2?

I’d probably try some heat around the outside of the collar on the block while wiggling the collar with some vice grips. Idea is to heat up the block so it expands and the opening goes along with it loosening the friction between the 2. A slide hammer would be helpful too.

Usually the gas pumps by me don’t have them but the high flow diesel pumps do. its kinda a mixed bag, does not seem to be an enforced standard.

I’ve done them on automotive engines, they look similar to your D1703. Joe smith just did one in his thread on here too. (Don’t do it like him though) rtv was a bit excessive. But he has pictures. Some seals require the crank to be perfectly clear of lubricant, others may need lubricant. I’d...

Just aeration of hydraulic fluid.

Popped a hydro line. In the boom of course. Looks like it’s had interference with the cylinder fittings by the location of the rupture. I did replace it about 10 years ago. Was all the way out long and low and it made that unmistakable noise with the river of fluid after. New line ordered...

If scheid says they can do it I’d have confidence in them, they are a top shelf outfit.

I can’t tell you exactly the last time it rained in southern Connecticut. Been over a few weeks for sure. But before that we got lots, so I don’t think we’re in panic mode when it comes to a drought. Very high fire danger, had quite a few large scale (for CT) brush fires over the last couple...

Common error, especially if you sound out the name.
