Any idea how much Dyno time costs ?

I'm far from the point of dyno testing, since my 70D is in parts all over the floor. But when I DO get it back together and running, I was wondering, since I don't have any way to put a load on it, should I consider breaking it in on a pto dynamometer ?

If so, what does that cost ? Do you pay the dealer to have a shop tech stand there and watch over things ( I would think so ) ? Also, if folks favor using a dyno, how long is long enough to break-in a re-bored engine ?

Thanks for advice in advance.

You might check around to see if a dyno is for sale in your area. I found 2 of them and made one and sold the rest for parts. I place both my JD Rs and A on the dyno just to give them a little work out and I dont even have to take them to the field. Sure can make the Rs smoke when under load .

If you came to my shop it would be shop rate for however long it took,I would recommend one hour, plus $45.00.

Lynn:

Boy, that's a great offer, but I think she'd probably be broke in if I drove it there from Tallahassee !

Would make for a neat journey, though. How long should it take to run one in ?

Major work...re-bore, rings, valves/guides/pumps/imjectors.

frank i'm only 7 miles from tullahassee.. a john deere mechanic from wichita that also works on the two cylinders told me about 9 years they used to hook them up on the dyno and run the tractor for a few hours under a part load then put a load on them..he said what they did later was make sure every was warmed up good them put 100% load on them..he seemd to think this would seat the rings getting a load on them as soon as possible..i do about the same thing but retorque the head after getting them warm first then pull them down..work on pulling tractors so can't leave 100% load for very long lynn

At the J.D.dealership I work for,you pay the going shop fee per hour,and yes one of the techs. watch over the tractor.We like to run a new motor at least an hour loading it down to rated about the last 10 to 15 minutes.

Thanks Duane. I was thinking maybe an hour. The old girl will probably never pull a disc or plow again in anger, at least not for any length of time, but I just think it might be the right way to start off.

Besides, all the guys at the parts counter are already asking when I'm going to drive it up to the dealer to show them what a real 70D looks like. so far, I've only been able to point to the model on their shelf !

Took one of the refreshed pony heads in with me today, and they had never seen one before.

Fank.. if you want to really pull their leg, show them one of the pistons out of the pony... hehe.. Tell them.. here is one of the pistons out of my 70Dhehe.. see how long it takes them to figure that one out..

We used to run the new engines like some one stated above.. some thing like 15 mins at 25% rated
15 mins at 50% rated
15 mins at 75% rated
15 mins at 100% rated
(rated being factory PTO HP)
Just keep a good eye on all the usual stuff, and check the engine for leaks. The other thing about the dyno, I have been told that the 2 cylinders to not like to run on some of the newer dynos, the electronic ones. I have only been told, not seen for my self. Good luck
