I bought this 9600 at an auction a month ago. It had no batteries so it was not started up.Seemed to be in fair shape so bid on it and it was mine. well today after some coxing my 9600 started up. Power steering works
good, pto starts and stops,and dual power works too.A couple of things i noticed upon start up.Its not runnin smoothly so im thinkin its runnin on 5 cylinders.I
think the injector closest to the fan is not workin.I will look into it in the coming days.The other issue is, i hear some clattering comin from the top of the
valve cover. its not knocking, but making this clanging/pinging noises. Im thinkin valve clearances have to be adjusted. Also thinkin the fuel injector pump needs a
rebuild. Have you guys ever had these symtoms in your tractor.Any thoughts, ideas, and help appreciated......John

Did you check inside the cover of the injection pump before starting it?
 
I had the problem with the simms pump on my 6610, had rust in the pump and broken return springs.
 
I couldnt drain it. The previous owner must have lost the drain bolt and then stuck a brass radiator drain tap into the hole. I cant wrench it out, its too warn
out.
