901Diesels
New User
My apologies if this has been covered before - I'm new to the forum and new to diesel tractors. I recently bought a 901 Select o speed diesel. the tractor hold 30 to 40 psi oil pressure - doesn't smoke on start up, but am having trouble with throttle response. seems the governor is not working properly. After looking at the manual I decided to take a look at the pump timing. When I removed the inspection cover diesel runs out.
Shut off the fuel tank and thought I would let it empty out - went to pick up hay and upon return still leaking. Guessing my fuel shut off is not working either. Guessing the pump seals are shot and it is leaking internally. Lots of places on line sell seal kits - Is this something an average mechanic should attempt? - should I just have the pump rebuilt? or am I overlooking something?
Thanks
