* Progress

Posted on December 14th, 2008 by ploughmyfield. Filed under TE-F20 Rebuild.

A great night in the garage.

The flywheel is on. Thanks Mark for the aligning tool it worked wonders. I added a new pilot bearing to the clutch before installing it. I have had to refit the old tab washers as I’ve had 2 other lost sent to me and they are wrong so I’ve made a not of the sizes they should be just in case. 

Flywheel in place

Clutch plates in place with the aid of Mark

Fitting the clutch moved the timing chain out on the front of the engine. I wanted to go over the settings from the manual again so it wasn’t to much hastle to reset everything.

 

Tractor Timing all setup

 

 

I’ve even made a Video of the engine turning over. It now turns much easier with the Flywheel in place.

Timing cover in the degreaser bath. It’s another aluminium part so I’ll take al the paint off the outside, heat it up and spray with Etch primer the same as I did for the sump. I want to get the cover on ASAP as I have a cable tie holding the chain tensioner in position.

Hello Tim,

Have a look at manual page C117, section 14

Please don’t take my e-mails regarding these things personal. I just feel that any
information put on the web needs to be acurate. I spend most of my time when talking
to customers refuting something they read on the internet you see.

Regards,

René.

Hi René,

Thank you,
I have only placed the starter dog on the crank to turn the engine using the handle.
there is a retaining washer and shim to be added to the nut. but as I say it’s only to test the engine.

Hello Tim,

I was refering to the bit before you put the first cog on the crankshaft :

First was to add the shims back behind the cog on the crank shaft.

Shims behind Cog

The shims are added to make sure the cog is in line with the other two.
