Farmall 706

What he means is it is a major job. You need the complete fuel system, including the fuel lines and throttle linkage. Then the radiator is different. The Air cleaner pipes are different too. The wiring harness is different too. I think the charging system is different. The diesel has a higher amperage alternator.

The truth of the matter you would just about have to have the tractors setting side by side to really know that you had everything to complete the switch. So you would just about always be better off to just repair the diesel rear half with the parts from the gas tractor.
 
Yes, it is complicated and you need a lot of parts. To name a few:

1. Front engine cover
2. Rear engine plate
3. Flywheel
4. Clutch and pressure plate assembly
5. Frame rails (they're different lengths on the gas and diesels)
6. Radiator (bottom outlet on the radiator is on the opposite side on a diesel)

That's just the major stuff. Dozens of little fiddle-fart parts too. Some of it can be modified or jury-rigged to work, but it depends on your creativity.

If all you have is the bare engine, like out of a combine, you're going to spend months and months and thousand and thousands of dollars chasing down what you need.

The easiest way to do it is if the engine is coming out of a donor tractor. Then you can get all the parts you need from that donor tractor.
 
It depends a lot on what engines you are talking about. If you are replacing a C263 with a D282, the radiator, frames, and a lot of other parts are the same. If you are going from a C263 to a D310 then the radiator and side frames are different. The later 706 tractors with a C291 or D310 have longer side frames and hoods than the earlier tractors with either a C263 or D282.
