Tractor is leaking out diesel at the throttle shaft in the injection pump.:mad: Anyway I found this video on how to replace the O-rings. Tempted to have a go at it myself. What you reckon? Is it a bridge too far for a gunterer?

You can do just the o rings without taking the pump off the tractor. Just be careful that all links go back into the holes they are in when you take it apart. The different holes are to set the pump for different engines.

Remember if you remove the injector pump from the engine you may upset the timing.

I was thinking that alright from the video. Should I get the seal going into the engine on the drive shaft replaced too. Knowing my luck it would start leaking soon too.

If there is no diesel in the oil I'm not sure I would bother. If you fit a new seal and it starts leaking after you will be twice as annoyed

Hang an energy saving lightbulb over the pump, touching it even and plug it in.

You can buy corriboard for about a euro in builders providers for an 8' x 4' sheet , worth anything not to have to see some waster of a politicians face around the yard :cool:

Bought a 500g tub of Copper Grease today in Halfords, €12. Being looking for the stuff for a long time. Nobody seemed to have it. I reckon its the bees knees to stop nuts from seizing up over time.

Yeah. The grease evaporates but the copper stays between the studs threads

opening them up in spring.

Not a Massey, a 1963 Super Dexta. Was lying for years and frost burst a lump out of the water jacket into the middle cylinder. Engine is on the bench there. Centre cylinder machined out, massey 35 heavy liner fitted, then bored back to standard Dexta size.

Thanks Nek .... just makes life a little easier and faster for feeding meal ..... and stops them rooting out silage looking for meal .The brother in law gave me hand to fold the sheet steel ... he is thinking of doing some now himself using the jfc corri trough in a steel frame .

Muckit

Great job! V neat job as usual. If you could set it half way to block barrier so they can't stick out head when putting in silage blocks/bales be icing on cake.

Is there a pin to keep them up? Also how did you bend the sheet metal? Looks a right job

Ya Muckit It would only be a matter of having an extra 2 inch sleeve on both ends of trough and boring out for pin at centre of arms and end of arms for 2 different settings .. for me it's not necessary as we have a good bit of room even with there heads out for passing with tractor ... but would be a good job for lads putting blocks in with shear grab ... no missing ears 😀

You can see in both pictures the spring loaded bolt we used to keep them in place .. a friend of my brother in law is a contractor and has his own workshop with a big press on a ram .. he bent them for us in an hour .. we used lightish sheeting to keep weight down .. my dad is 76 and he is able to use them .
