Does it fit the four Cyl engines as well? I think it fits all the way through to the xx60 series. Am I supposed to be able to find it in the on line parts cat.?

I'm not surprised the Blue-Point is that much, and that's really not terrible compared to what they used to be. I think mine was probably most of $50 and that was 12 or 13 years ago. I have the old style one they made before that didn't have the sleeve, and I always thought there was no way that I could ever forget to pull it out of the flywheel housing, until I forgot. It took about 1 or 2 seconds for the ring gear teeth on a Dodge Cummins flywheel to remove two teeth on my rotation tool. I can't even remember when I discovered that the same tool would work on Deeres, but it works like a charm. Mine has turned a lot of engines, lol. One thing I do like about the Blue Point vs. some of the Deere tools (the older non-spring-loaded ones) and even my earlier one that got ate is that it's 3/8" drive, which makes it real handy to use with my 36" 3/8 extension and a 3/8" universal joint. Even with a short-handled 3/8" ratchet, it's pretty easy to spin over a Deere 12.5.   [Reply]  [No Email]

Deere part #JDE81-1 is their spring-loaded one that I don't really care for because in some situations it's a pain to push in on it while you're turning the engine. They spring it so it can't accidentally stay engaged. It's around $17 from Deere. JDE81-2 is the timing pin and it's around $5. JT07223A is a kit with the 3 most commonly used rotation tools and it's around $175. Those prices seem kind of low but I got them right out of the Service-Gard catalog, so they should be correct.   [Reply]  [No Email]

It works for both. It has a sleeve and the gear rotates so if your ever happen to forget it it won't tear anything up. I'll get you a number off it and find the Service-Gard number for the Deere part as well.   [Reply]  [No Email]

We have about 4 of these tools at work to cover all the different models.   [Reply]  [No Email]
