JD 60 sediment bowl

DY · Jan 20, 2015

My sediment bowl was off for a long time. When reassembling, is it bowl, screen, gasket, or bowl, gasket, screen? Or does it not make a difference? Thanks

Screen gasket and bowl.

Screen inf first to the assembly then the gasket which helps hold the screen in then the sediment bowl

Here is another question. My bowl assembly has the oil controlled shutoff. One of the tiny oil tubes leaks at the fixture. What is the fix for that? I don't want to tighten the nut so much that it twists the tube. Is it too small for Teflon tape? DY

Look back a few POSTS the answer is there. Fittings ans tubing are avail

I used 3/16 copper tubing, compression fittings, and a
ferrelled nut if have to go that far

You could use brake line if you want.

Those nuts go into the tractor main case and used one up behind the dash too.

Pretty easy to delete the oil shut-off feature, BUT, if you can fix it, it is a good thing. HTH

I delete them a lot, and put a 1/8" ball valve in for a quick easy shut off...

Bob Harvey · Jan 21, 2015

My 53 didn't have the oil shut-off, but I added the ball valve after forgetting to shut off the fuel and dumping 1/4 tank in the crankcase. It's ugly and sticks out beside the hood -hard to forget !

I replaced my auto shut off with a regular shut off. The auto shut off worked fine, but with the crappy gas we have, I like to shut off the fuel and run the carb out of gas. I also replaced the bowl drain plug with a petcock to drain the rest if it wasn't going to be used for a while.
