Got a line on a 2006 year wood chipper that may be for sale. Has the JD 4045 diesel engine. I was told it was hard starting and when started it would not throttle up or run good enough ? to try out the rest of the chipper functions. Was told others thought it was low on compression and needed rings ? I do not think anyone really checked it. Machine has 3500 hours on it and I find it hard to believe you could ruin a JD engine in so few of hours ? or if maybe it was either a lot and they broke some rings possibly ?
I was wondering if these engines have a common issue that shows up causing such symptoms ? and if these injection pumps had that plastic damping ring that fails and if they can fail so they will not rev up ?
Anyone buy a rebuild kit and have head work done recently ? how much is this running these days.
Anyone got a complete running engine laying around and if so how much $
