Most use the glow plugs …Harbor Freight diesel tester seems to be the most popular. Do not use oil in the cylinders for the test. Not sure which one will fit, the cheaper one is listed as a new item. https://www.harborfreight.com/search?q=diesel%20compression%20tester Since you have no real...

Excellent permanent repair. I’d make use of that bracket with an insulated clamp.

No he didn’t……(not yet) Now he did….. And he found the problem… Good job flyguy! Very high resistance in the B+ circuit. And this…. https://www.orangetractortalks.com/forums/threads/l3240-hst-no-lights-on-panel-and-will-not-start.55954/post-523878

Great diagnosis… throw parts at it. Voltage drop test will find a bad cable in less than a minute. Try this first. Second line on the board is the most important… “always test circuits under load”. Report back with your findings.

If pipe thread is there as Whitetiger says, do yourself a favor and DO NOT use Teflon tape as sealant. Use a liquid thread sealant (pipe dope). Teflon leaves little bits that can float around in the hydraulic system causing problems. Problems won’t usually show until the next disassembly /...

I used the green for a while but switched to the red because the green seemed to wash / wipe away too easily for me. I switched to Sunoco red because I got tired of red oil dripping from my grease gun when the temp got above 80*. Should you switch?…. Your call. If you decide to switch or...

Looks like this is as good as it gets. 3 day shipping. https://www.ebay.com/itm/304696592884?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=N9ZFNZIET8q&sssrc=2349624&ssuid=ibdf1aV-Rm6&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

Ask what kind of oil you should use…… I’ll pop the popcorn 🤣

OP asked for a lubricant, aren’t these undercoating / rustproofing? White lithium makes a mess. The newer clear gel lubes work great. Many companies make them. One example here. https://www.wd40.com/products/spray-gel/

Some clear pics would say 1000 words…..

You’d be better off posting questions like this in the initial post since you’re dealing with the same issue. I believe you now have all the facts spread out over 3 different posts. https://www.harborfreight.com/master-diesel-compression-test-kit-57588.html

You can use a deep well socket (slightly smaller than the outer diameter of the seal) and a very small hammer. Shouldn’t take much force at all.

Good deal👍. Thanks for the update.

There are diagnostic procedures you need to follow. You stated in your previous post that you used starting fluid, and dumped fuel into the cylinders…. There’s a very good probability you either bent connecting rods or broke your ring lands... the damage will happen immediately. You definitely...

That offset gearbox along with the injection pump cam are all lubed with engine oil, so yes. 3 of those seals in stock says a lot ;). Greg, follow Russell’s advice in post #14 for a clean, complete job.

Same machine here. Here’s what you’re looking for. #050

No…. You need to go to the component parts breakdown. #30 is the pump shaft pressure seal. Watch the snap ring orientation when you pull it, they only go one way.

Yep… they reverse polarity the pump to make it happen. Hoses come off opposite sides of the impeller.
