Just checked coolant. It's full and clean.

I changed the oil at 200 hours. Now it's at 208 hours. The oil is still at the full mark and it's clean.

Just checked and verified there is no water in the fuel/water separator. I started the the engine and there was no smoke or unusual noise. It seems to be running ok now. I bought some Clear Diesel from Power Service and will use that ensure the tank is clean. By the way, I use a Mr Funnel when I...

The smoke came from the exhaust and the coolant overflow bottle if filled to the full line. Had to run some errands so I'll check the radiator tomorrow and I'll go ahead and remove and drain the water fuel separator tomorrow as well.

Thanks. The fuel filter enclosure is clear plastic or polycarbonate. I looked an there's no water.

I was using my 3901 for about 2 hours and the engine revved without me increasing the throttle. I turned the engine off and it blew out white smoke before the engine stopped. The engine barely turned and wouldn't restart so I checked the battery under load and it's good. I cleaned the...

I found this video on YouTube and tried it. It worked like a charm. The yoke came right off. I tightened the ratchet strap and tapped the yoke with a hammer.

This is the type of yoke on one end of my PTO shaft. The other end is identical except there is no shear bolt. The tractor PTO output is splined and the implement PTO input is identical. Both PTO input and output have an indent that goes around the entire circumference of both splines so the...

My PTO shaft uses a shear bolt. I'm waiting for delivery of a new tractor and once it arrives I'll probably cut the PTO yoke from my implement.

It's a Lowery Manufacturing rotary tiller. Unfortunately, it has the same type of connection that my tractor has.

Actually, it's stuck on the implement side which I prefer to the tractor side. I mage a judgement call and did put force on the implement spline and luckily it didn't appear that I damaged anything. I would never had done that to the tractor side since that would be a very expensive repair...

I tried that as well with no luck.

Foreign matter was a concern before I began so I was careful to keep it clean and not introduce any but that doesn't mean I was successful. I really don't want to take it apart and use a puller but that will be my next attempt if using the implement doesn't loosen it up. Thanks for your reply.

I recently removed my PTO shaft to clean it. I removed all grease from both yokes and shaft and added new grease. When I reinstalled it, the implement yoke became stuck on the spline before the quick release pin engaged. I tried tapping it off with no luck so then I tried tapping it all the way...
