Hello forum. My name is Chris and this is my first post. I from central Ontario and have a few questions about my Cockshutt 1650.
First this is a direct injection engine with 4017 hours.
In the last 7 hours of running the oil level has gone up approximately 3 liters (quarts). It is diesel fuel that is entering. Where could it be coming in so fast from? I have read briefly about a seal on the injection pump shaft that could be the culprit? It is not knocking or running rough when warm.
The tractor has been used very little since I bought it a few years ago but since day one it has started hard and only with spray a lot of the time. It runs rough for a while then cleans up well and little smoke when warm. Lots of power. I am beginning to wonder if the injection pump timing is off and possibly the pump also needs a rebuild. Would like to start with verifying the pump timing and if the seal is likely the culprit do that at the same time. Can you all help me with directions for seal replacement and pump timing please?
Many thanks and I appreciate being able to post on here.
Chris
