help identify 2030 engine

justanothercase · May 25, 2009

i am going to be putting sleeves/pistons and bearings in the neighbors 2030 Deere, easy enough except the tag for the engine is gone.

is there any way to tell what motor im working with using the block p/n: r55011 r55034
serial # of tractor: 213960T
Model: 2030B
tractor is a diesel, there are 3 different kits and i would like to have it on hand when i take it apart so i can get it put back together right away.

thanks in advance for any help

if you dont pull the engine apart first,how do you know for sure if the crank needs to be turned and what bearings you will need.jd sleeves are part numbered on the top ring which should tell you which kit is required.

What happened to the engine to require a sleeve set? Coolant in the crankcase? If so that crank will likely require grinding back to true.
Call 1-800-522-7448 Order CTM-4
Use the highest compression piston/sleeve set.
Don't sink the valves and seat by grinding. It just drops compression and ruins everything you tried to gain. New valves and seats or mill the head to raise the old valves back up.
