Thank you. I will test but it makes sense that there would be a starter relay. I just need to find a wiring diagram for the GC2300

Thanks for responding. New starter so I doubt it is the solenoid but your point of high resistance to the solenoid is a good point to check. Possibly key switch?

When I first turn the key on I hear the fuel pump and I get a mechanical clunk. When I shut the engine off I get the same sound after the engine is off. Is there a mechanical switch tied to the electrical system. On start up some times it takes 3-4 turns of the switch before the starter...

I have ordered a replacement M/F part but still believe there are alternatives to be found.

I guess nobody has identified an aftermarket replacement?

Engine now runs great, Thanks for everyones help.

Here is what I went with: Tisco 837-470 top link https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00BW5PYGW?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title

Has anyone found reasonable priced aftermarket tie rod ends for the GC2300? Kubota sell similar items at $30, John Deere for $50 buy Massey is $130. Looking for an alternative so any specifications on the inner tie rod end will help with the search. Anyone know the bolt sizes and if it is RH...

Just an update. What I thought was a fuel leak ended up being a blown water pump gasket at the top of the water pump. Coolant was being splashed on the fuel line connections by the fan making it look like a fuel leak. Tore everything apart and top part of gasket was missing. Now everything...

Thanks. I will go with the 13.5 to 20"

I should mention that I mainly will use this for a ballast box attachment but also will consider a York rake in the future. I am assuming I want the shorter top link so I can adjust the ballast box slightly forward for better ground clearance when loading on trailer of hilly surfaces. But...

I can find top links that have center to center lengths from 17.5 to 26 or 28" or shorter ones with 13.5 - 20 inches. Which one would be better, ones that can be adjusted shorter or ones that can be adjusted longer

Looking at my 2008 GC2300 the distance from the 3pt hitch to the top link tractor mount is 18" center to center. Does this sound right?

thanks everyone I was expecting 600 lbs

How much ballast weight would you recommend for a Massey GC2300?

still fighting leaks. has anyone used conical copper washers to help seal this connection? If you did can you provide any data on size and vendor?

Does anyone know the correct top link length for a Massey GC2300? I need to replace a missing one on my tractor. Thank you in advance for your help.

If I find something I will post it here of others information.

Looking at the picture of Massey 4264789M1 it shows 1.1 bar which translates to 16PSI. Plunger looks to be about 1" diameter. and it is a two tang cap. So it looks like I am off to the parts store to see what might be compatible.

Thanks Willy, The problem I am having is that none of these items cross reference to the Massey 4264789M1 part number. Unfortunately I have not been able to find spec's on the 4264789M1 part for size, number of tangs and pressure ratings. I hope someone on here can provide some additional...

I quess nobody has had to replace their radiator cap. Or if they did they went OEM?

Has anyone found a third party replacement radiator cap? I dropped mine inside the machine and cannot find it. Dealer wants $42.00 for replacement. I would guess that somebody offers a replacement from Stant or other manufacturer. I assume that this is a 7psi rated cap?

thanks for the suggestions. I will try both of them.

The issue is not the main feed line but the hard lines that go from the injector pump to the injector. I had removed them to rebuild the head, now I have a leak, Trying to find out if there are any o-rings in the connector.

correction. injector pump to injector. leak is at the injector pump output line

I have a leak on one line running from the fuel pump to the injector on my Massey GC2300 with a Iseki E3112 engine. The leak is where the line connects to the fuel pump. I have tried tightening the line nut but still leaks. I do not see a o-ring in this fitting. Does anyone know if there is...

I purchased OTR GrassMaster tires from Giga tires online. Best price I could find and quick delivery.

Please disregard my request for valve angle. I purchased a service manual and found it to be 45 degrees

I had the head resurfaced and now need to regrind the valves and seats. Does anyone have a service manual on the E3112 engine and can tell me the correct valve seat angle?

Will Kubota BX23 rims fit in the front and rear of a Massey GC2300?

I will strip the head this week and send it out for resurfacing just to be safe and check OEM pricing on head gasket. It might be more expensive but I would prefer to do this right the first time.

What would you suggest for a quality turf tire for a Massey GC2300?

do you feel there is a big quality difference between OEM and aftermarket? Who makes a quality aftermarket head gasket?

Pulled the head, bad head gasket. All bores and pistons look good. Looked like I can just get the head resurfaced and change gasket. Where is the best place to get a gasket set for this engine?

Thanks for your reply, I will pull the head this weekend and inspect everything, Hopefully it is just the head gasket.

Purchased a non running 2008 GC2300. Replaced starter, battery, ground strap and bottom radiator hose that had hole from throttle cable rub. Turns over but will not start even after bleeding air from lines. Low compression on two cylinders, 500, 150 in center and 350. My guess head gasket...
