I"m trying to pull the wet-type sleeves out of my Oliver Super 88 diesel, but I can"t move them with the puller I"m using. It just seems to bend the puller all up. How do I do this?

Thanks for any help,
Nathan in MN

Nathan,

There is nothing in an oli 88 that should make the sleeves hard to pull , the only thing holding are two small orings at the bottom. Sounds like your puller leg is standing on the sleeve flange or the plate at the bottom is too big and is wedged in the block. Keep the welder away from those sleeves , they are cast iron wet sleeves and welding on them will do no good as well as a good chance of arcing on the crankshaft. Engine is a waukesha 190 DLB , I have one apart in the shop now.

I agree with George and whatever you do, don't hit the top of the block wih a hammer as tempting as it may be.

I have never done an Oliver but the wet sleeves I have done came out pretty easy sounds like something on your puller may be binding or you are dealing with dry sleeves.

Nathan,

This is interesting. When you get them removed, please post a follow up as to how you finally got the job done. Thanks!

You might run a couple arc weld beads up the insides of the sleeves to shrink them, if you don't plan to use them again. Be careful you don't penetrate the sleeves to weld them to the block.

Will a Oliver let you place a block of wood under the sleeve, then a jack to the floor? jack till the tractor comes off the ground, use puller at same time and turn a heat lamp on block.

Don't know about an Oliver, but on the other green tractors, I used to get underneath the tractor, put a stick of hardwood against the bottom of the sleeve, and start smacking it with a hammer, never had one refuse to come out.
