Hey folks,
On my German made Farmall w/ 3cyl diesel motor (DD-111).
In winter, it would take forever to start because the starter would spin and not kick in. Or crank a few rounds and kick out (spin free). Once started and warmed up, it would be fine when started again. Weather warmed up and it starts good now only occassionally spinning free but no show stopper.
Starter problem? Or, is the starter fine and just the cold weather (15-20 F) has the enging kick a little (I don't feel it) and tell the starter gear to disengage (Wouldn't really explain spinning free without engaging)?
Starter has a solenoid on it but my parts manual only shows a complete assembly which is real expensive.
Any tips? Is it possible to cross reference my PN# (711 104 R91) to find another comparable with a repair parts list (assuming I know what I would need)?
Thanks,
Dave
