Hey guys, I just bought a farm pro 2420. It had a slight "what I think" to be a fuel knock. I noticed it was missing a stud on the rear injector. So I cleaned removed and cleaned the injector and replaced the missing stud. This cured 80% of the knock!
The guy I bought it from did say the injector pump was just replaced. To be honest he was pretty mechanically stupid and I've fixed several things no sooner than I got it off the trailer.
I still have a touch of white smoke at idle. When I throttle up fast it puffs a good bit of white smoke. I feel that maybe the injector pump is a touch out of time. I can detect a ever so slight knock but it's so faint I have to try and find it over the normal diesel noise.
Can anyone explain to me how to fine tune the pump on these tractors??
I see a bolt on the top (pivot) and one on the bottom that's ovaled (adjusting) I presume???
