Had to get the 730 CK Diesel out today. Thermometer said 40 degrees, but the 730 was in the lean too under the barn, in the shade, and realistically was probably in the low 30's there, given the cold we've had. Today was a warm up. She had new batteries installed last Fall. 3-5 seconds on the starter, and no heat & she was purring. I keep harping to you fella's, DON'T BE GRINDING VALVES & SEATS!!
CASE says that for every .005 of valve recession, you lose .1 of compression. On the '30 series, if the intake & exh. are each recessed .010, that brings the ratio down to 14.6 to 1.
