desperado812 said: (quoted from post at 18:02:49 08/12/15) I have a M that I have been running for about 8 years. I have seen that max idle RPM is 1450. To get 540 RPM on PTO I have to run the engine at 3450 RPM. Its been running fine there and use it often to mow. Does anyone know the max RPM other than the 1450 which is the idle speed. Thanks for any info
Assuming you want to obtain 1000rpm from a 540 rpm machine by over reving it.
Centrifugal force increases by a square of the rpm. At 2051 rpm the force on the flywheel and clutch has doubled.
Unless you add high pressure valve springs and a billet steel clutch. You tractor will look like this at about or above 2500rpm iirc.
Is there an aftermarket tach on the M, set to Two Cylinder mode ?
