    Starter silenoid question RE: my 155D

    Okay, I think I figured it out with that diagram you provided. That spring is designed then to PUSH against the lever holding it and thus the gear below keeping it disengaged from the engine gearing until the solenoid (thanks for correcting my spelling), is engaged and it PULLS the lever and...

    Starter silenoid question RE: my 155D

    Hi Mark, thanks for the reply. It helps alot, but I am still not sure of one point. I know the lever (22) fits up inside the slot on the plunger (24). My puzzle is just how the spring (23) fits with the lever (22). Does that bottom loop go to the right of (22) or does it go on the left side...

    Starter silenoid question RE: my 155D

    Got a question. I made a stupid mistake. I pulled my starter silenoid awhile back when it stopped working, then I set it aside and got busy with other things and since I didnt need my tractor for anything for a while it slipped my mind ordering a new one. :pat: Make a long story short, I...

    My Yanmar 155D and maintenance

    Where my yanmar is concerned, its always a happy ending. My only problem is its not big enough. So am going to try to find me a bigger one. Going to keep this small one but it just doesnt have the power to do some of the things I have asked it to do. So I am going to start looking for a...

    My Yanmar 155D and maintenance

    Hi all, havent been around much for a while. Just too busy. A while back I had an electrical problem with my yanmar. The altenator/generator went out. Actually, one of the bearings seized. As a result the belt burned up in short order and with all the smoke, I though I had lost the engine...

    Oh Jimbo,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

    Try this again. For some reason was typing and hit return and the whole page disappeared as well as the window. Strange. Anyway, welcome! :tiphat: Doc has a great site here. I dont get here as often as I would like, but its kinda relaxing when I do. I put up a new album today of my little...

    155D Generator bearing burnt and froze

    Thanks CA...grabbed it before it went away to someone else. :tiphat: Will have to wait a week I guess, to get it, but at least if I have problems getting this one back together I will have a backup. AND it doesnt hurt having spare parts sitting in the shop for this. :cool:

    155D Generator bearing burnt and froze

    Well dang....that means it should have lasted at least another year or two.:pat: Hell at this point you could tell me it was a plasma engine and I wouldnt know the dang difference. :wink: Well, I think I can get the other bearing out without any major difficulty and that way I can get things...

    155D Generator bearing burnt and froze

    Hi CA, glad you could chime in. Well, I made a little mistake, what I have IS an alternator, rather than a generator. However, it has two identical bearings in the housing. The one closest to the pulley is the one that burnt out. As you will see in the photos I am including now. Actually...

    155D Generator bearing burnt and froze

    Hi all, was getting ready to haul my sprayer around the place and started smelling rubber and noticed smoke from under the hood of the tractor. Popped the hood and saw the fan wasnt turning and the belt smoking up a storm. Stopped the engine immediately and checked things out and found the...

    Yanmar mower pto driveline problem

    Or just load the whole thing in the truck and take it in to the shop in town. :wink: I hate paying the labor charges but rather do that than take a chance on doing more damage to it. Its kinda my fault that the joint went out anyway. The driveline, where it stretches and extends as its being...

    Yanmar mower pto driveline problem

    Yea, there is a matching hole on the opposing side. And if there is/was a set screw, then likely it was damaged pretty good by my trying to pound the supposed pin out. :shitHitsFan::pat: Leaving it for today so I can ponder the issue overnight. Take a fresh look at it in the morning. Then...

    Yanmar mower pto driveline problem

    Hi all. I posted this over on forumforums but figured I had better post it here as well for those of you that dont go over there much. Anyway, I am having to replace the PTO driveline for my yanmar finish mower. Its a model 45 I think. Anyway, I cannot see how to remove the shaft from the...

    Painting my Yanmar 155D

    Toe has recovered...mostly anyway. Tractor is likely going to have to wait till spring for its fresh coat of paint. Its turned too doggone cold here lately to even think about painting anything. Plus have some other irons in the fire that have been taking alot of my time. Been lurking here...

    wing blade and snow removal

    Well, as soon as you can post the closeups, I will be a happy camper. :thumb: I do know I gotta get something rigged up sometime soon before we get socked in this winter. We had heavy snow every week for almost 2 months last winter starting at Thanksgiving. And it didnt go away till april...

    non starting kubota

    Thats what it sounds like to me as well. Thats what mine did when I first got it. Put a new battery in and the same thing. Then discovered the bad cable ground at the frame. No problem since.:mrgreen:

    Harbor Freight: Coupons, and recommended tools

    I agree with you on the helmet. Works great. Only problem I had was the glass temper wasnt as good as it could have been.:thumb: Its an old theory but doesnt do anything but line the sellers pockets.:fart2: Good call. It works ok, but its not great. I have one as well. Plus unless you...

    70's Yanmar on Ebay advertised as 2002 model

    Could be....could be....what was interesting was his reply to CA and his less than forthcoming added note on his auction. He likely fell for one of the less than honest vietnam reconditioned dealers sales pitch, found out he had been scammed and just wants to pass on the scam by playing stupid...

    70's Yanmar on Ebay advertised as 2002 model

    Was just following up on the guy selling that tractor and found Ebay had removed the listing. I was curious to see if he had actually managed to sell it. So all is well and lets hope he tries to be more honest in the future. I know...I know.....likely not.:forgetit::bangin:
