International 454

Hello, this may be a little long. Sorry. I have a international 454 that sat a lot of last year with transmission issues. I fixed transmission and everything was fine. Then I started getting diesel in the crankcase. So, I took pump off and had seals pump put in. I used it about 3 hours and guess same thing again. I took off and took back to the same place that put the seals in. He accused me of crushing the key in the shaft of the pump. So, new key and new seal. I double checked and made sure everything was as it should be. Tractor runs great technically I think it out works my Massey Ferguson 175 gas. But, after 3 hours of use same thing again. Planning on taking to Caseih dealer. What could I be in for? Tractor runs so good. It can't be a motor issue. Right? I am very frustrated to have such good tractor having this problem.
 
Hi, I hope the Tech that replaced the seal lubed the shaft well before installing the seal. Also he should have checked the drive shaft for a groove worn in the shaft.
Maybe DieselTech can give some advice to you.

IF the fuel is from repeated failue of the seal of the injector pump, then you may have a restriction in the fuel return circuit.
Also check the thermostart cold start aid if one is fitted.
