    D950 Slow to Shut Down

    I will call them first Monday but confused by the slow shut down. Figured if that lever was not working properly engine would not shut down period & I'd have to yank the electric lift pump quick connect.

    D950 Slow to Shut Down

    Finished installing rebuilt injector pump, engine starts & runs fine. This is a marine genset and governed engine speed is critical and ouput shows correctly at 120V--issue is on shutdown. Normally, after the stop button was pressed, unit would shut down in a few seconds. The solenoid pulls the...

    D950 Injector Pump Question

    Thanks again--this unit is in a marine Genset so I need to be real careful about that high end stuff:)

    D950 Injector Pump Question

    Thanks for your reply kubotafreak, so this would be the idle fuel spring adjuster that you note. When removed the end looks like a blunted gas carb high idle adjusting screw, except that the coil spring is recessed into the pump block. I didn't notice it when I pulled the pump & only saw it when...

    D950 Injector Pump Question

    My D950 engine injector pump mounting block has on the rear facing side a small adjusting screw & lock nut which adjusts a small internal coil spring which I think pushes against the pump rack. Wondering what its purpose is & how to determine proper adjustment--it is not shown in any of my...

    BX23S Shims = More Pressure - Better/Worse?

    "Looks like this will go down as another of life's unanswered mysteries! LOL..." Yep, whole lot of those going around these days.

    BX23S Shims = More Pressure - Better/Worse?

    Good thought but bucket was open & its lever was not in play. Only the thumb 3F lever was operated & thumb would be stationary since its circuit was dead ended at the pressure gauge. Though, I was not looking at the thumb but focused on the gauge looking forward. Could that be the answer?

    BX23S Front Guard Event

    Here it is in the press with about a ½” to go, I was pretty far along in the process before I thought to take a photo. Last photo back on tractor you can see the areas where paint is gone but the guard & center grill are back to original fit. I wanted to complete the bending & making sure...

    BX23S Front Guard Event

    Had a bit of a mishap finishing up a project last week doing some work on a rock wall--result was my grille guard got tagged. I only post this not that it’s unusual but what it led to. I was prepared to remove & start the repair but my wife said she’d kick in for an early birthday present. Wow...

    My take on BX fuel filter(s)

    https://ph.parker.com/us/en/fuel-filter-funnel/rff15c I use this fuel funnel when I fill my 5 gal can at the pump. This works fine for my low hour usage of about 150 hours /year. You folks with high hour usage would find this a PITA. Main thing--& an injector killer—it separates the water...

    BX23S Shims = More Pressure - Better/Worse?

    Did that pressure check from the 3F valve & of course, gauge read tad over 1800 psi—same as from FEL manifold. One caveat though: I’m about done for the season with the backhoe so that was removed & replaced with the 3PH & ballast box. I had forgotten that when I got the 2700 psi reading it was...

    BX23S Shims = More Pressure - Better/Worse?

    Henro, Been off grid for a while but sure, will retest from the 3rd funtion valve & post the results tomorrow. To answer your question: Yes, the 2700 psi reading was a static test reading--normal engine temp, all attachments idle, engine rpm at high idle. The joy stick was moved & its handle...

    BX23S Shims = More Pressure - Better/Worse?

    Earlier, I posted this on another forum that, after finishing a large yard project (for me, anyway) I would split the loader from the tractor & post the result--here it is: 'Late finish, 18” down & about 18” shy of where I needed to be for the last tree ball this poor boy arrived at the rock...

    BX23S Shims = More Pressure - Better/Worse?

    Turns out: --Okay to take readings from the bypass valve --Gauge is correct --PSI ratings here are incorrect Shout out: THANKS DAVE! BX23S Workshop Manual WSM Section 7, Page 3 shows 3060 psi maximum:
