My IH 364 w/BD154 diesel engine may need some attention. After mowing for 1 hour with a 5' rotary mower I turned off the tractor and within 2 minutes or so went to crank it up again. It turned over fine but seemed to actually fire and crank kind of lazy - like it lacked compression. This scares me. I ran this tractor for 3 years in a row mowing hay for the previous owner several years ago before I bought it from him a month ago. I never remembered this "lazy" starting when hot. I pulled a 9' sickle mower for several hours at a time and never saw it do this. This engine has NEVER run hot with me, not even under the hardest loads and doesn't use much oil to speak of. Am I low on compression and a resleeve is in my future or could it be something else? If I need a resleeve, can I simply pull the head and pan and do it without splitting the tractor or removing the crank?
