    Dana/Spicer 4360-55 locks up in lower gears

    I followed all above suggestions. Thanks! Other than old/dried grease, only 1 potential problem. One of four clutch keys was de-formed. Keys NLA, and newer models only use 2 keys. I reused it. Done, operating great! THX again for the guidance.

    Dana/Spicer 4360-55 ball/spring detent adjustment

    Peerless manual (for similar 920 series) states, screw head level plus 1 full turn. I read a forum post, stating - screw head level for 4360 series Dana. I prefer to not totally trust my "elderly" memory. ;) Peerless has 1 detent screw. Dana 4360-55 has 2. Thanx for your experience!

    Anyone used Peerless parts in Dana 4360-55 ??

    Per Tecumseh/Peerless manual, images of 920 series Peerless appears same as Dana 4360. And, dis-assembly (pretty much) follows steps in Peerless manual. I have Not Found any actual cross references. I need clutch keys, axle neoprene washers, at least. THX for any experience/info.

    Dana/Spicer 4360-55 locks up in lower gears

    Disassembled as planned. Did not find a blockage of grease in the shift key/guide channel. - 4 grooves in the shaft. Grease was dry in that area. Grooves uniform and smooth. I will replace keys (as is said "abundance of caution") and previously suggested parts. Tecumseh grease is on order...

    Dana/Spicer 4360-55 locks up in lower gears

    I have viewed a few hours of videos. None (that I've found) address breaking down the brake/shift shaft. IMO the most intricate one. Getting ready to "wing it". :( I guess.

    Dana/Spicer 4360-55 locks up in lower gears

    Rivets, thank you for the reply. IE- After cover removal, I rotated all the assemblies. Checking gear teeth, etc. Removed complete assy. from case. Don't know configuration of the mounting hole. Internal "tabs" or ? to maintain co-ordination w/ shaft or adjacent gears or assemblies. My "hope" is...

    Dana/Spicer 4360-55 locks up in lower gears

    Well, finally got this project in line. Removed cover w/o much effort. All gears/shafts etc. rotate very smoothly. Ample grease covering. And grease piled up all around. Obviously not pliable enough. Gives me hope the shift keys are just "clogged". Removed all sub-assemblies (see pics, I...

    '86 JD216 problem after changing both belts - PTO is engaged

    After fully charging battery and tracing all wiring, I tried again. Clicking sound came from PTO bracket hitting the "stop" pin on the block. Keeping engine from rotating. PTO switch off. Switch on, same. Disconnect PTO lead, same. I haven't used PTO in years. No accessories attached. Seat...

    '86 JD216 problem after changing both belts - PTO is engaged

    I've change both in the past (with copy of JD manual). Usual space, etc. problems. Tractor on shop floor. This time went normal. I did steps prior to adjust variator. Which I've done a couple times in the past. Turned key and starter turned enough to lock up at flywheel. Multiple times. No...

    '86 Kohler K341AQS 71270 - Walbro WHG carb leaking

    Thanks a bunch for the help! I have a 30 page "manual" bookmarked. In it there's a data set marked in RED "Preliminary copy of carburetor reference manual". It doesn't have the kits column. I ordered K1 and new float. I have the 25 757 11 already. K1 is more specific, I think. Hope it has...

    Thanks for reply. I adj. per the Kohler K341 repair manual. I checked the K1 kit. The float valve is correct square shape, but its hanger is diff. Mine is a round, spring shape. It threads onto top of valve. Can't tell from pics if it's same overall length. :( I've talked Kohler and Walbro...

    I ran my JD216 after 'bout 18 months. Added gas, not completly empty. Cranked/ran fine for about 45 minutes. Lost power & died. Bottom line, fine surface rust in carb bowl was only possible problem I could find. Fuel to carb, compression, Ignition - good. I removed bowl/float & float...

    Generator has 1990 B&S 8 HP Magnetron w/low oil shut down. When cold, it starts 2, 3 pulls. Runs for 10 to 15 minutes and cuts off. As if the switch was turned off. While running it powered a 3/4 in. driver/drill. Will not re-start until cooled off. Is the Magnetron over heating? THX for any...
