I read this entire thread, and want to say thanks for all the documents and info from everyone

You are correct. I should have changed the fuel filter after I ran out of fuel, hopefully I won't have to go through this again.

Thanks for everyone who as posted on this subject. I have been using Rotella T6 5w40 for the last several years in my YM155d, YM2210d, and YM1510d. I have not had any issues that I know of, but I don't want to have any either. I know 40wt oil will protect better at higher temps but if it...

Reviving this thread. Has anyone had any issues using 5w40 or 15w40 in their tractors? I have seen some posts on TBN that we should only be using 10w30 and not a 40 weight oil due to heat retention. Is this more important in the thermal syphon systems or all Yanmar tractors? I have have been...

Handle pointing down "fuel on"

Yeah, I looked several times and I don't see it anymore.

There was a guy on Facebook Marketplace that was parting out a 2210d recently. I will see if I can find that post

When you do straight pipe it or glass pack it, be sure to post a video and pictures.

When I got my YM155d the exhaust was horizontal and at times it would blow back in my face, so I positioned it vertically and that actually made it worse, so I put it back the way it was horizontally. I think the key here is to have a longer pipe vertically to solve the problem. I left if...

There are only a few diesel additives that I will use and have used with good results. Opti-Lube is a great lubricity additive, Hot Shot's EDT, Hot Shot's Winter Anti-Gel and Howes, which some people will have various things to say about. However I have used all of these additives for years...

I ended up getting the pump from Tractor Parts To Go, I had already placed an order after I found out about Brand M parts which would have been $25 cheaper. Either way, I am glad its up and running.

The PumpGuys were a great help for me with my IP issue. Thanks again for your help!

Update. The new IP came in and I was able to remove the old pump fairly easily with a little work. I eyeballed the new pump against the old pump and decided to put one shim under it as I didn't have a micrometer to measure anything. Tried to time the IP the best I could since I was by myself...

Ordered a new pump, should be here by Friday. As I look closer at the pump, it looks like I might have to pull the water pump too to get the IP out. Can anyone confirm this?

Thanks bmaverick, that’s helpful

Has anyone had experience with Tractor Parts To Go out of Mobile Alabama? I used to always buy my parts from Hoye, but haven't needed anything since All States Ag Parts took over. I posted a thread about my YM1510, and I either need my IP rebuilt or get a new one. Having mine rebuilt will...

I appreciate the advice Peter. I always use Opti Lube or Hot Shots EDT with my fuel for lubricity for the same reason you stated above. I have a shop close to here that I trust, however I am going to talk to thepumpguysc to see if they would be willing to look at it and rebuilt it for me.

When it starts, it has a few puffs of white smoke and then goes away, and no white smoke while it is running. I have let the engine warm up at idle and then at 1,000 rpm for a few minutes to see if it would open up and start working, but that didn't work either. How long should it take and at...

I reached out to the pumpguys and followed their procedure, but still no luck. They suggested I pull the pump and have it looked at. I would have never thought it would come to this. Im going to try the procured that Winston sent me, and if that doesn’t work then I guess I’m pulling the pump.

Thanks Winston, I will try this today!

Thanks bmaverick, I just reached out to them.

Update, took the injector to a shop, the took it apart, inspected, cleaned and tested, all is good. Changed the fuel filter, installed injector, primed fuel bowl, pump and lines, still no combustion for cylinder #3. I am stumped. I don’t think it’s possible to lose compression on a cylinder just...

Peter I agree with you and Carey on this being a fuel issue, I was just checking other possibilities yesterday. I did not change the fuel filter because I don't have one on hand, but I have ordered one. All three injector lines spray fuel when cranking the engine. I am hoping I didn't...

I have seen this photo before and I must say, its one sexy 155d. Wish my 155 had a loader and set up like this.

Update, I pulled injector #3, took it apart and cleaned it. Put it back in and same problem. Removed valve cover to make sure I didn't have a valve stuck open, nothing there, all looked good. I didn't swap injectors from another cylinder yet, but I am going to see if I can find someone to do...

Thanks Winston, I will see if I can get that done today and see what happens

Well I ran out of fuel in my 1510d. I filled the tank back up and bled the lines from the fuel filter and the port on the bottom of the IP (Phillips screw). Cracked all 3 injectors lines and cranked until fuel came out. Tractor lacks power and doesn’t sound like it should. For some reason I...

Thanks for everyone who responded to this. I feel better now that I know it’s nothing to worry about. Thanks for the photo as well California.

I am hearing what I think to be gear chatter when I push the clutch in while mowing with my bush hog. No noise at all when I’m moving and mowing, only when I go to push the clutch in while the pto is spinning the mower. Any ideas what this could be?

Interesting. I have a YM155d and a YM2210d and neither of those two tractors front end look like my ym1510d in terms of camber and toe, unless they are just more worn??..

This is a front wheel assist tractor, I was thinking king pin issue initially as others had mentioned too.

Thanks for the post Peter. It appears to be positive camber with slight toe-in from the pictures. When I am on the tractor the toe-in appears to be worse almost as if the right front tire (sitting on the tractor) is being pushed in as I am moving forward but appears to be less when sitting...

Here they are

The pictures don’t seem to show to much of the toe in, but when I’m on the tractor it appears to be worse.

Thanks Peter, I will have to watch that video again. I didn’t see this until I got back home otherwise I would have taken some measurements. However I was able to get it started so I could move it and take pictures. Let me know what you all think.

I wasn’t able to get it started yesterday to move it and take pictures, it was -15 degrees and today is -4. I’m hoping to get pictures tomorrow

Peter I have not measured anything, to be honest I am not sure how to measure for that. I am unsure of the nature of the negative camber as well. There doesn't seem to be any slop in the steering joints from what I remember, but I will check today when I run out to the acreage and try to get...

Hello everyone, its been a long time since I have been on here, but I am needing some help with how to adjust the toe and camber on my YM1510d. Do any of you have instructions on how to do this, pictures are always nice too. The tractors toe is "in" on both front wheels, and I believe it has a...

This is the setup I need on my 2210d. Would make snow clearing way easier for sure, has to be better than turning sideways looking behind you with the 3pt snow blower.

would love to see this video but the link doesn't work for me unfortunately.

Yeah ebay might be the way to go.

That is some pretty amazing machine work right there. So his gear driven unit that he built looks pretty close to what is on this 240d, but is driven from the front of the crank and not of the the 3pt pto.

So I have not had time to go out to my friends place and get more pictures of this front mount PTO on his 240d, however after looking at a few videos on the web, it appears to be a factory option. With that said I will do my best to get some better pictures because he is wanting to sell it...

Thanks California. I was able to get a hold of that manual and that image you provided. However that diagram does not look the same as what this 240d has on it. Completely different setup, or at least that is how it appears to me. The one on this 240d also has a chain drive as well as the...

Does anyone know if Yanmar made a factory front mount PTO setup for any of the Grey Market or Domestic Tractors? Was this an option or did someone do a really good job making it look factory? I am only asking because a friend of mine recently bought a ym240d with one on it and it works good...

That's unfortunate. I have called a few times for some part questions and didn't have much luck on knowledge that is for sure.

Thanks California, and Winston added the manual!

Thanks Winston! This will help

Thanks for the information guys, I haven't been on here for a while now, had several things come up the last 2 years, but hope to be more frequent again. Unfortunate for TBN and Hoye.

Not sure if this is the right place or not, but has anyone heard that Hoye Tractor has been bought out and Aaron is no longer there??? Aaron was a great resource for parts knowledge along with everyone here. Hate to see him go. Maybe I was misinformed??

Bringing up an old thread here. A friend of mine recently bought a ym240d, nice looking tractor with him being the 3rd owner. Anyways he wants to add a spool valve at the rear of the tractor to use for something (can't remember what). Does anyone have a diagram of how to plumb this? Or would...

Good Morning Everyone, Sorry its been a while since I have been on here, crazy around here lately. Anyways I did end up getting a 1510d, however it does have a bad head gasket. I was wondering if anyone had the torque specs for this procedure and anything else I should look for while I am in...

So I have been looking for another tractor and have found a YM1510d, however I have not seen this tractor nor can I go see it, to far away, but I am willing to have it shipped for the right price. Anyways in the description the owner states "About a year ago, we noticed that the driver-side...

Well I might have found a tractor. I have been looking for a 2 cylinder because that is what I like, however I did find a 1510d with a loader. So Power Shift and 3 cylinder, it is a VN referb, but looks great, only drawback is the price and location. More than I want to pay at $6,400 but it...

So my little 155d has had some coolant oozing that last several months from the front and rear head end, nothing major, however it has gotten worse this last week. I ordered the gaskets from Aaron and should be here tomorrow. My question is for those who may have already done this, did you use...

I know this probably isn't the right place for this thread, but I thought I would start here anyways. I am looking for a Yanmar 1100d, 1300d, or 155d, is there anyone here that has one of these and interested in selling, or know of one somewhere that is for sale? Thanks for any and all replies.

Yep we are all here like California said Winston and several others on here have a wealth of knowledge and resources, it is truly amazing.

Thanks Clemsonfor, I didn't think about other states not having access to Rimguard. California is right, it is beet juice. I attached the fill chart for Rimguard so you can use that for reference.

I did purchase the wheel spacers from Hoye for my 2210d, and it made a huge difference in stability. If you are mowing over any uneven terrain they are well worth it. I now have turf tires on mine, but have put on my R1s here and there depending on what I am doing. I will post a few pics of...

I have a set of those spacers from Hoye. They were not difficult to install, and as others said, use Loctite on the spacer bolts. My tires were fluid filled, so after I removed my tire and installed the spacer I lowered the one side of the tractor down just even with the bolt holes for my...

I remember that feeling of the jibblies that you are referring too when I first got my 2210d. After I put on the wheel spacers it made a huge difference, you can see the before and after pictures here. I never measured the distance before and after though, maybe I should have, but the ride...

Ok we finally got 8 inches of snow for me to try out the 60" Farm King snow blower on my 155d. It worked really good, I did use the 770 pto speed however to get the snow to really throw and didn't cause any problems. Here are some pics.

I like to get out early too if I can, but my job on most days keeps me from getting our there when I want. As for the folding down ROPS that is how my 2210d is set up from Fredricks. See attached picture, it is up right now, but can fold down. In the picture you can see where the hinges are...

Agreed, you don't want that shaft to be dry, it can cause rust and corrosion and lead to failure over time. Figure out where that spot is to add the oil or grease and keep that shaft and gear lubed. I believe the YM2000d steering box oil fill location is under the fuel tank... If so that will...

Ok guys I have been contemplating getting a loader for my 155d, but I have a few questions/concerns. First off I tried to call Coldwater and there was no answer, so does anyone know if they are still in business? I was going to get a quote on a loader from them and also ask him the same...

Re: 3 point hydraulic control lever stop There is a round knob under your seat. Turn that knob clockwise to lock the 3ph where it is at and counter clockwise wise to open back up. But remember if you lock it you won't be able to use the 3ph. See attached picture

That is a US made loader, maybe try a local or nearby Yanmar dealer, maybe they could help you out. If not there is a Manual for that loader on Ebay, I don't know what is in that manual but maybe it will have the specs you need for the cylinders and or seals. Here is the eBay item...

Vern if you look at the picture I attached you will see a black circle with notches in it. Get a pair of pliers and turn that counter clockwise. That will free up the switch. I am not sure if the black knob pops off or not, but if you unscrew the 3 wires from the back and turn that circle...

Well I almost pulled the trigger on the Woodmax 60" snowblower, but they were on back order.....until the December 6th and would have to wait another 2-3 weeks for delivery.... I decided to check Craigslist one last time before I made the purchase and guess what??? I didn't find exactly what I...

Ok so I have been doing a lot of research and think I am going to get the Woodmaxx SB48 snowblower. It is a 48" blower that I would be using on my 155d. It is on the heavy side weighing 529 pounds. I know my little 155 only has 3hp at the pto and this blower is rated for 15-25 pto hp, but I...

Thanks rScotty. Before I decided to put these tires on I compared Hoye's turf tires rolling circumference and revs per mile with the tires that I put on here. There was a 4 rev per mile difference, so I figured it would be ok to use this set up. I do appreciate all your input on this matter...

Well I finally pulled the trigger and got different wheels and tires, that way I can keep my R1s and use them when I am in the garden or other food plots. Here are the pics of what I have. Hoye wheels with LT275/75r16 on the rear and 155/80r12 on the front. I also filled all 4 of them with...

Scotty I feel your pain.... On my 2210d I don't have many options, so I use a 2 magnetic Kat heaters, one on the side of the block and one on the bottom of the oil pan. All last year that worked great for me. On my newly purchased 155d I had a heck of a time removing a plug just like you have...

Hello everyone, I am on the search for some wheels that would fit my YM155d... Anyone have any wheels that would fit and are willing to part with? I know Hoye sells their Turf Tire Kit, but I am wanting to keep this under $1500 and wouldn't mind using the factory wheels or something that would...

Thanks for all that great information rScotty. I guess I did not specify very well in my post. I do not plan on putting in an extra thermostat, I plan on using a temperature probe in the upper radiator hose as I did on my 2210d. See the pictures I have attached. The probe shouldn't restrict...

Sorry this took so long, but I had a busy weekend. Here are the pictures of my recent 155d purchase. I took the mover off the tractor for now so I an do some maintenance on the little guy first. Let me know your thoughts.

Good Morning everyone, it has been some time since I have posted on here. The last 2 years have been crazy. My family and I have moved, my wife and I both stated new jobs and my youngest son has been in traveling baseball. However I have come across a YM 155D in excellent condition. I...

Winston I found the pictures. First is the 1500d. You can see the bolt on piece between the rear axle and transmission. The second picture is actually a 2000d but same as a 1700d. It's molded like you said. Glad you dug into that for me. I don't know how I forgot about that.

Has anyone used pallet forks on their Yanmar?? If so where did you buy them and do you have the clamp on or chain on ones? I have been looking at a set from Titan Equipment. I could find many uses for them but wanted some feedback from others that have either the clamp on or chain on ones. Thanks

. I am also looking at a Green 1500d. It has 786 hours on it. I know this probably isn't an accurate hour reading, just what he told me. Guy says it runs great with no known issuers. It's 6 hrs from me so I haven't seen it. The pictures make it look pretty nice. I'm not sure what it's worth. I...

I agree with Gunny. I installed an actual temp gauge and left my dummy light too

Not the best video, but I showed the loader at very low idle, 1000, 1500, & 2000 RPM. Then I have my son on it using the loader and PS at the same time, he tried his best to follow instructions but not the best demonstration. Anyways he used it at 1000 rpm.

I know I have started a few threads recently, but I am new to TBN, been here since February this year. I do a lot of research before I post, but I am always eager to get someone else's perspective too. So here it goes. I have ym2210d and love it. As in my other threads I've started I'm going to...

Thanks for the reply, but according to your website the 1700d take a different set of tires than the 2000d. The 1700d has smaller tires than the 2000d

Or something like these

They would look like these from Hoye

Hello all, I am going to purchasing a different tractor, possibly a Yanmar YM1700d, my question is for the folks who have a similar size tractor that has the large truck tires on their tractor in place of an actual turf tire. Like the turf tire kit that Hoye sells. I believe the tire size for...

Hello everyone, I haven't posted in a while. I currently have a 2210d and love it. I am going to get another tractor, I want something a little smaller for different applications. I'm considering the 1700d, 1720d, and 1610d. I know how nice the Powershift is and how helpful it is when using FEL...

Ok guys I have my PS install done and working like I want it to. I am sorry a head of time, I forgot to take a few pictures as I went a long but will do my best to describe what I did, or what happened. Tools you will need, 10mm wrench and short socket, 17mm, 19mm wrench, 3/4" wrench or...

Just trying to figure out another way to upload pics. Sorry guys

Ok here is the flow chart

Ok so I have several questions for the Hydraulic Specialist in this forum. I have a Yanmar 2210d that has a Koyer 120 loader that has a Dinoil valve on it. Initially the loader was plumbed from the gear driven hydraulic pump on the engine. The loader valve outflow powered the 3point, and the...

Ok I'm back and have my PS kit installed, like Scotty I had a few set backs as well. I do not have the pictures uploaded yet because I might be changing the setup of mine yet. I wanted to pick your brains first. My kit is the same as Scottys and plumbed pretty much the same way with only...

So I am needing some advice on a rear blade or box blade for my 2210d. My main use will be for snow removal on my drive and my folks too. I was wondering if I should get a 5ft or 6ft rear blade? Or a box blade, also what size? Any input on either blades and the sizes you guys think would be...

Hello everyone. Newbie here, I recently purchased a YM2210d with FEL. I had posted some pics a while back and asked several questions and got some great responses! Thanks for all who put their 2 cents worth in for me. Today I just wanted to post some pics of some mods I have done in the last...

Here are some pics of my 2210d!

Hello to everyone here. I would like to say that I appreciate websites like this because of the knowledge that everyone brings to the table. I am wanting to purchase a Yanmar tractor. I have it narrowed down to 2 models, the 2210d and the 3110d. I know there is a slight size and weight...
