I removed the fuel lines between the injection pump and the injectors, to pull the injectors and oil the bores. As the operators manual says.
I though that would be my chance to put the injectors onto a poptester and see how they perform, but I dont have the right thread connection on my pop tester, so just oiled the bores and reassembled.
Now I am having a lot of trouble bleeding the pump.
Any tips you can suggest, I have already replaced the diesel lift pump with an electrical one, and I do have diesel flowing in the leak off or return line.

I am currently using and old filter from a diesel car.

I have replaced my lift pump with an electric model, because the original had failed and leaked diesel into the engine sump.
Can anyone identify the correct diesel filter cartidge to fit as the only ones I have on hand leak both top and bottom.

I am very impressed with your work! Fantastic

Well done Nikko, we have to keep them running and useable.

Fantastic history, now we need pictures, well done for having the foresite to lube the pistons and bores while it has been waiting.

Yes OC-6, I believe it is a 1957 originally sold by the Brisbane dealership

This is my first tracked machine, it was dragged out of the sugarcane field behind it with engine and gearbox and hydraulic pump siezed.it took a lot of work to get on to a tilt tray truck, but its finally home.

I have recently got my first tracked machine. It was pulled out of a sugarcane field and was going for scrap as it was all seized up. I think like all newbies I will have lots of questions.
