In 20 years, all new tractors will be all electric. That is my prediction - it may happen sooner. Just like plow horses, all these stinky diesel tractors will be put out to pasture.

I have a well used BETSTCO Farmer Helper Machinery Company EFGC195 flail mower. The brackets that held the bearings have been bent and re-straightened a few times, and worn off on the bottom from dragging over rocks. Also the front sheet metal flapper guards that reduce the crap flying out the...

Did you make your splines in the shaft yourself? Did you make the mating splined hole? How many splines (grooves)? To transfer power, more splines are generally better. Matching the shaft splines to the hole grooves is also critical. I didn’t see a photo of your shaft.

I got the new pump from my local (Honolulu) repair shop, Precision Fuel Injection. They sold me an OEM pump for about the price to rebuild the old pump, way less than I could find one for. I bolted the pump on and it worked fine without any adjustment for timing. And no fuel leaks!

If I had the money, I would buy a new tractor. But the value of anything is not the dollars, it is what do you have to give up. I’d rather have an an old tractor and all the tools, a shed and all the machinery to fix it rather than just a new tractor.

I pulled the injector pump off and sent it to a shop. They disassembled it and said it was reparable but the cost was going to be nearly what a factory new, OEM pump was. So I got the new pump. Definitely agree with thepumpguysc. If you see what the equipment is that they use to test and adjust...

My 2004 Case DX35 was running just fine, but I had a little fuel leak in the injector pump. So I pulled the pump and injectors. I am waiting for the return of my injectors and a new injection pump from the shop, Precision Fuel Injection in Honolulu. My old pump they say had a bent part, so...

Don't know if this thread is too old to be posting to it, but I had a good laugh reading thru it again, especially Sodamo's posts. I've been busy with the tractor, too busy to spend much time checking out TBN except to get advice on a few repairs. I did forget to say "thank you" to everyone who...

Here's the photos. Didn't show up in the above post.

Well, I sure was hoping your were right ruffdog. But nope, the leak is between the output port (has a hex collar on it) and the plate with the penta head bolts. I replaced the fuel lines, cleaned it up really good and painted it a light minty green (closest thing I had handy to white) so I...

My 2005 Case DX35 with a Shibaura 3 cylinder diesel engine is leaking fuel from the injector pump, specifically from between the center cylinder penta head cap screw and the housing of the center cylinder output port (see picture). Being this is a penta head, I assume that means DFW (don't fool...

I ordered seal kits for the four cylinders on my Case L160 FEL on my Case DX35 tractor. The cylinder end cap has just a two opposing flat spots for an open end wrench, but I don't have a 61mm/2.5" open end wrench, so I first tried a pipe wrench. Of course I chewed up the cap a little, but...

Rick, still can't get into that website. I get error messages when I follow your link. When I go to dmcretail.com, I get a simple screen with a half dozen boxes with tractor brands in them - text only in boxes, no instructions, nothing else on the page. Then I get this screen: Anyone else...
