No, mine was very very tight on splines!!

That is what i like to do, always feels satisfying. It also means that normally the early cut stuff (that which was not quite ready to cut !!! and therefore likely to give trouble) is now at the front of the heap and goes on the lorries first.

Yes it is, noise is at very front of engine so unlikely......hopefully when it is running again will check it but plan is to sort it when land work is done, pull off front cover for a start and keep pulling engine apart until we find problem.

Strangely enough i replaced the pump on my 6620 last week hoping it would improve the poor hydraulics on it..... sadly it didn't. Was gonna use the old pump on 6820 as quick fix but now thinking i will get new pump (rexroth but not from JD again) for it instead. Hoping to drill and tap...

I took the pump off last night and sure enough shaft broken... how do you get the broken bit out please ?? Does the charge pump need to come off? Took pump apart and one of the brass shells is broken up and bearing seized !!

Police unlikely to come out anyway !!!

That is the kind of sound it made and it did go suddenly. Thank you.

My 6820 has just lost all hydraulic power.....no lift,spools,brakes or steering !!! I was out drilling and a strange noise came from the back end and then it lost all hydraulics just as i git to a wet spot !!!! Is this likely to be the drive (bevel) gears ???

Can you have more than one SFI agreement on one holding number ?

What is closing date for SFI 2023 applications?

Only 6620 and 7700 here .... is 6630/6830/6930 the same fuel system??

A bit cooler today so rocker cover off, checked clearances and all good. So then i found a big screwdriver, listened to all under the bonnet........ top, bottom and sides of engine nice and quiet, but the back of the hpcr pump does sound noisy.

OK so if i dismiss the gears. Injector pump? Camshaft? or Does this engine have counter balance shaft?

I have looked at Driveshaft, (recently did one on my 7700) and appears OK. Yes it has oil, although I may change it and cut open filter to check for anything unpleasant. Noise has been very slowly getting worse for a while and i now want to fix it. Still has full power. Do the engine gears...

7000 hours, No front pto. Yes it is only when under load say 1500 rpm plus and can be heard in cab from lhs of engine. Exhaust needs regular maintenance on these jd's !!! But ir is not exhaust system or guard. Belt and pulleys recently replaced.. It is much more of a mechanical...
