I previously posted that I had a 4240 with a M&W turbo and was wondering what the pyro should run at. I just fixed the heater aand moved the front wheels in and took it out on the road and up the hill by my house to see if the alignment was good and make sure the heater works. I got the pyro to about 1150* then backed out of it and it seemed to run around 900* in road gear goin up the hill. The hill isn't much. It is a steady about 3-4% grade and about a mile long I'm afraid when I start working it hard that the tractor will heat up too fast to really pull good. Is this a common problem or do I have a lemon? Could I turn up the pump for more fuel and maybe let the engine work a little less to do the same work or am I stuck to using the pyro to drive with?
