Hi all, Oil pressure gauge installed ( after lots of hassle to match NPT and BSPT threads! and clearing engine bits) at start up/idle it is reading 40psi. (engine warm to touch) after a few minutes of idle i ran it to full rpm and the needle kept crawling up to 60psi. (WSM that I have says...

I tried welding up a piece of m6 stud which happened to need a gentle tap with a hammer to go in. And gave it plenty of tacks with the MIG. The alu one came out pretty easy. Yes the gasket is homemade... :( No time to wait for a gasket to reach me from greece... I changed the oil lamp switch. I...

hi update.. a really sad one.. :( The plug on the cam is still on! it is the aluminium type. So what is causing such a drop in oil psi... I am very angry now cos i am suspecting it might have been the switch! I am quite angry cos the first thing i usually install to any of my cars / vehicles is...

Rad clear and clean (recored) less than 3 yrs ago. I have added a coolant pump and temp sender. I am certain it has not over heated. It is late to lift front cover off. Will see tomorrow. A person told me it may have blown head gasket into the oil gallery some cars tend to do it. Still...

Hello, This morning i used the tractor to pull the trailer to carry a load of fresh grass for the sheep.The journey was just 10 minutes each way. When I reached the field it started to idle quite roughly and light was flickering and it wanted to stall. On the return trip after the cutting and...

Hi thanks. It looks like a big job to deal with. I will try go through the wsm i have to check exploded views and how to go about it. I have yet to till a patch and check if it flickers/comes on. The thread is quite long btw. ,🤦

Hello, Engine exhaust colour is pretty clear and light haze of black under load. This morning after start up i noticed a reduced amount of white blowby. I am going to buy a cheapish compression tester 0to 1000psi should be enough. I.m handy with spanners jyst finished a top end refurb on my...

Hello, My D750 is lubricated with 15w40 motor oil which is changed religiously at 100hr mark (including filter). Tractor is worked hard but never boils over or overheats (has automotive coolant pump). It has clocked up 2362 hrs in my possession over 15 yrs or so. It was bought used and have no...

Getting the bucket on was a pain. I fear because of a light twist in arms and paint in bushes. Hopefully some work will loosen things up.

More photos, I cannot upload videos but the bright yellow thing with 2 upright tanks in the background is the PTO driven compressor. I need to paint up the modified guard and install the bucket and off to play :)

Hello. First of all sorry for the late replies. I have been very busy in real life. It has been nearly a 2 year effort to sort of come to an end. I made it a point to get it painted this summer so I started tackling it from Jun. In my little free time (after work/farm work/animal duties)...

sorry if late. I am not sure what pump it is ... the box had toyota on it but i pretty much think it is obsolete.. it is flanged type.

Malta and Gozo have changed dramatically... please do not linger so much about revisiting :( the ways of life of current age have destroyed what is / was appreciated by many like you. All that matters is blocks of apartments for Airbnb... rental and real estates... Farming and all sort of rural...

Hello. I am interested in adjusting the valves on the D750. I have not done it in years! I was reading here that adjustment should be carried out on each piston independently from others. (Bringing each piston at their TDC and adjusting to 0.008" ) this this correct? I have some downloaded...

Loader is in operational state :) no soil or manure have been dug up yet but still getting used to the controls and the extra feet up front! Spent some time playing around unloading IBC tanks :D

Progress in early June - My friend with the metal shop managed to find a slot to bend the bucket for me. It was done in increments and varied angles with a press brake and not rollers. Waiting for the brackets to link the bucket to the arms. Hydraulic lines ready to be pressed/crimped. :D

Sadly 80w90 is thick and I am a bit worried it might have damaged the pump. I did a reading not long ago about how the correct alternative for SAE80 is 70w80. Good that you found your UDT.

What year is your model? I have a b7001 which I have rebuilt/refreshed two or three years ago (all bearings and seals at axle ends were replaced. I did use CASTROL universal tractor oil in it in before the rebuild. It leaked badly from the diff since bearings, seals and faces were getting...

Sorry if i am late in replying. I am in Malta (mediterranean Sea) and I ordered it via Ebay.co.uk. It is a british company. they also added the float position to one of the ports/controls. It is not a direct replacement for the original item (bolt holes etc) and it is set to a much higher...

Problem is that the D750 is a bit tired and worn (lots of blow by at idle) and EVER since I got him some 10 years ago, the engine has always required some 20 seconds preheat on the first start (indirect injection diesels all love it) I managed to borrow a key from a local with a B6000 which...
