: : Had to tear down my CASE 300 because of low oil pressure before the serivce manual has shown up. Someone had been into the oil pump and hacked it up, so was only holding 7 psi with engine warmed up and 40 wt oil in it.
: : Ordered .002 under rod bearings. Polished the nasty stuff off the crank today, installed the bearings dry and plastigauged, then put back in oiled up.
: : Looks like between .002 and .004 clearance is where I wound up. Does this sound about right?

: Don't have any books on your tractor,but it sounds loose to me (especially if it's .004")

Thanks for the reply. Yes, it sounds loose, but its a field repair. Got some crush on a .003" plastigauge, to can't be so bad as to not be an improvement over what was going on before the oil pump removal. Ideally would like to have been able to pull down and have crank ground down to .010 under and set clearance to .0015.

"Barry Seiler, owner of Country Town Farm Supply store used to invite people up to the Johne Deere store. He would give hats and a free meal for everyone that brings a tractor." Elliott said while this ... [Read Article]
