Engine question


MPH

Recommended Posts

Should I be able to rotate a twin 23hp engine just using about the 6 inch pulley? My combine engine is not seized tight, it turned with a pipe wrench. I just rocked it a little as I want to get some new lube in it before I spin it much.

Thanks

....Any engine should rotate easily enough so that you can

feel each piston come up on it's compression, if not find

out why.....No big wrenches....!

No Milo, I just brought this home Saturday nite. It's off a plot size combine I bought but don't have home yet because of slick roads through the mts. Thought it was sized totally, but maybe I got it just before it went that bad. Been sitting for an unknown quite some time.

      Site programming updates were made 3/23/2024. As a result some things have changed including dues payment options. We will continue maintenance and work with technicians to regain credit card payment option and clear up minor challenges. On positive it appears attaching pictures is now easier. Good day. Gene
