Hi I have a fordson super major diesel I picked up from a guy cheap here do that with a 200 hour rebuild on it wasn't running quite right when I got it . Dad was using it cutting grass after I changed the timing and put a head gasket in it. He came back in the house and said it was making the most funny sounding knock he'd ever heard. When I looked the crank pulley with a considerable amount of end float was a good clue to the problem.
When I got it apart it had the wrong crank radius, I took another used crank to get re machined at the Very experienced tractor /diesel truck machine shop. He took one look at the old crank and said he knew exactly which automotive shop ground the fillets to the smaller gas spec, he had seen lots of them the place had done wrong on customers jobs over a few years . It was 1 employee that did them all from what he said, and none lasted more than 3- 400 hours, the customers weren't to happy. That good shop closed when the owner retired. I asked him who I could trust to replace him, he said nobody really round here. When he quit I quit doing tractor motor rebuilds to. I don't want to put my name on somebody elses junk motor shop work !. Regards Robert
