DK44H,In the words of Tractor Vet get a written description of how to adjust the clutch from IH and follow it to the letter. or find an experienced tractor Mech and pay him to adjust it for you.
IMO,,,Do not screw-up a good 966 by putting a turbo on it! go find a 1066 or a 1466 that is in decent shape and buy it! A slight adjustment of the pump will wake one up some, but do not get wild with the adjustment. They are great 110 to 115 hp tractors anything past that and you really need to find a good 1066 or 1466. Forget the turbo idea!!!! If you are bent on turboing it wellll.... with enough money anything can be done.
Like some of the others have said, a 966 has a D414 engine, these ol girls are best when you have them at wide open throttle with a good load like disking or cheiseling . They will go to slobbering oil past the rings when idling around doing light work like loader work where max power or RPMs are not needed.
Talk to Allen in Neb., He has on really slick 966 that he brought back from the forgotten. She is really torquee. But a 4 bottom spiunner was just a little too much for her for after a short while he drug up a 1066 and was getting her prepped to be his main tillage tractor. My statements here are simply observation of Allens workings on his operation.
Allen if I have misspoke I appoligize.
Yes I have one heck of a 966 also, I would not dream of turboing her. I belive mine is pushing 115 to 120 hp.
Good luck,
John A.
