Farmall 300 Lifter Issues

Kevin (Allendale) · Mar 25, 2012

I have a Farmall 300 and have been having trouble with the lifters. I've broken a total of three within the past year (all from the same valve). When I reinstall the new lifter I make sure that it moves freely and gets enough oil supply from up top. Have any of you experienced this previously? If so, how did you go about correcting this issue? Please let me know. Thank you.

Has it ever bent a pushrod? Could be a sticking valve. If not I'd say you have a bad lobe on the cam.

So far I've never bent a push rod. Does that rule out a vale sticking?

I think I'd be looking at the camshaft next.
