I am the new owner of a TO-35 1959/60 with the four cylender desiel engine.The engine is hard to start without starter fluid and it smokes alot from time of start up til shutdown. The tractor as a whole is in great shape and will start, run and all operates fine.It just plain smokes alot.Is it worth the rebuild? Is it possible for someone who knows nothing about rebuilding an engine to purchase and install a kit and be successful? I have all the tools and none of the know how. Thanks,Tommy Abbott

The four cylinder 35 Standard diesel always was difficult to start but will certainly appreciate a rebuilt engine. White smoke could be from a cylinder that is failing to fire eg broken piston rings or stuck valve, blue is engine oil being burnt from worn piston or liners or rings, and black is from faulty injectors or injection pump.
Engines are not difficult to rebuild providing you have the manual and understand the basic principles. Just remember to note how everything came apart and in what order and what way round. For example push rods like to go back in their original places. Bearing caps like to go on the original con rods and in the right direction. This is because the parts may have been machined together and are only accurately interchangeable as a unit or they may have worn that way. Note the timing positions of the crankshaft, camshaft and injector pump gears. I use a pot of car touch up paint with a brush to mark components as a double check. If you want to know the principles get the John Deere Fundamentals of Service (FOS) book on Engines, it is very easy to read and very detailed and well worth a read it is used to train their own engineers.- together with the tractor manual you will get to know more about engines than most people. PS Check the engine turns over and is not unreasonably stiff as you put it together and most of all enjoy the rebuild!

Harry thank you for your reply. I will search for the (FOS)BOOK.The more I can learn the better. Thanks for the tip on marking all items as they are removed to be sure of proper replacement. Would it be best to open her up then order the parts needed? Ex: If I open it and find broken rings, would I say maybe replace the rings and sleeves and not all the other. I certanly want to do a good job but this tactor is hardley used, if I could reduce the smoke it would be fine. Thank You, T. Abbott
