Early Farmall 706 Diesel (D-282 Engine) Tachometer Drive.

Crgmor · Nov 2, 2012

Anyone have experience with removing the tachometer drive from the block of a early 706 diesel? Is it pressed into the block or screwed in? There are not visible clamps that hold it down like a normal distributor. I have stripped gears and need to look at the lower gear.

Take the top plug out the gears should come out the top they are turned by the oil pump shaft.

If you have no luck getting gear out with plug removed, the adaptor is just a light drive fit into block and a brass drift and hammer will punch it out. Or, could hook a slide hammer onto it.

Thanks. I will try to drive it up and out tomorrow if I can find a long enough drift. Do you know enough to tell if the oil pump drive can fall out like some automotive engines do or is it captive?

Thanks
