Oil & Fuel Oil pressure for a 1700

[mikereid]

Thanks for the advice, there was no throttle return spring, I added one and it works great.

I fixed the temp problem, now it maxed out at 180-190 working and about 160 just driving around. It currently is straight water.

Straight water=rust=bad for the engine.

That is about right. That is real close to what I get on my 1700 except the temp. I added a water pump and mine runs about 140 to 150 in the summer.

What size is the bushing that threads into the block so you can hook up the verral fitting to

I don't really remember the size of the adapter. I had to buy a metric adapter kit for about $7 that had the correct size in it. They were hanging on the shelf right next to the gauge kit. I figure it was cheaper than running all over town trying to find it. I will try to measure it this weekend.

You might try to search the forum for "gauge". Someone may have posted that info before.

Just a note: My 1700B was manufactured with a water pump.

And when I push my throttle off, it engages an Elect kill switch.

What electric does it kill? The tractor doesn't require any electric to run.
