Any diesel mechanics out there? I have a 1955 Oliver Super 77 diesel. It will not start right up without turning over,and over,and over,etc. When it starts,it runs great. I don't know when or if it as ever had an overhaul. I know it could be lack of compression from engine being tired or injection pump not working properly. I have owned this tractor for around nine years and it has always started like this from day one. My question is could the battery,not being up to par,cause this to happen. I have changed the battery a couple times, but always used the old one out of the pickup and got a new one for the truck. I have heard diesels need to turn over fast in order to start properly because of the compression. Also, is there a way to check the compression since there isn't any plugs to remove? Thanks!! Mike
