    B6100 won't start HELP

    Got the manuals downloaded. Thanks I also got it started today and boy oh boy there was lots of black smoke coming out of the exhaust and tube leading from crank case. Also had blow by oil coming out of that crank case tube. I don't think messing with the valves will help much. I have it and...

    B6100 won't start HELP

    No I did not. I could not find the service manual for that engine. I could only locate the owners manual which doesn't appear to refer to adjusting the valves. I would be willing to try if I can better locate the information.

    B6100 won't start HELP

    All GPs work fine. I even made new jumper wires to go between them and it still won't start. I think I will try to sell it as it sits with the implements. If that doesn't happen I guess I will have it rebuilt.

    B6100 won't start HELP

    Sorry about the voltage/current thing. I was trying to stay basic. I only pulled one GP because it was the easiest for now. I tested it on the battery and could see it start to glow warm. The wire I am referring to is the one that comes from the ignition/dash and connects directly to the first...

    B6100 won't start HELP

    Well I pulled a GP and tested it on the battery and it heated up immediately. I also tested the current to the wire connected the GP's from the ignition. It reads over 12 volts once I turn the key to preheat. However, when I connected the GP directly to it (grounded and not grounded) the GP...

    B6100 won't start HELP

    How do I test the GP? I have checked for voltage and they seem fine. The indicator glows orange so I assumed they were working. If I pull them will they glow as they warm? I don't know if I am up to adjusting the valves.

    B6100 won't start HELP

    The decision would be easier to build it if I had more experience with the tractor. I only had it a short while for mowing and wasn't that impressed with its mowing power, but it could have been because the engine was wore out when I got it. Ideally, if the rebuilt motor were to enhance its...

    B6100 won't start HELP

    I recently bought a B6100E with a 42" Woods cutter, disc, and single point plow. This is my first diesel tractor and I wanted it to prepare a garden and some mowing on our 4 acre place. No hour meter, but it started fine, with some pretty heavy smoke from exhaust and crankcase tube, for about...
