jinma 204

Browsed the forum and couldnt find a topic that covered this so thought I would ask. I was out a a customers a week or two ago replacing some bearings on a disc or him. I saw a little Jinma 204 not far from where I was working that had been sitting. Thinking I need a smaller tractor for my...

So just got a 01 jinma 204. I did not realy think about not having power steering. Unwell I had a load up front in side of a house iam adding a foundation to. I knew it did not have power steering but new after moving it would not be a big deal. I use the loader to lift the front end up and...

New to the forum, but pretty sure after reading thread 2 below that the hydraulic oil is making it into the engine crankcase. (Back story) The bucket and steering was operating fine, but the hitch was not moving. I noticed the hydraulic fluid in the back end of the tractor was not even...

Hi, I'm Steve. I'm in the process of removing my injector pump to see why I'm not getting enough fuel to my injectors. I've tried to search for diagrams and any material related to this project, but had no luck. Does anyone know where or how I can get any resources to help me? I'm going to...

Ok guys, back again. This time I got a minor fluid leak from the front axle at the steering pivot joint. Has anyone tackled this repair? It's not leaking very bad, but I don't like leaks. Thanks again.

Hey everyone. I have a moderate fluid leak from the PTO shaft at the rear of my 204. I have ordered a new seal, bearing and cover plate gasket. Has anyone done this repair and have any good advise for me before I start in on this? What and how much fluid will I lose? Is the bearing pressed...

I've recently aquired a 204 tractor and the front wheels are cambered out, it's wearing the outside of the front tires. There is no play in the front wheels/axle assembly, so nothing is loose causing it. Has anyone else run into this and is there anything that can be done? I don't see where...

My 2002 Jinma 204 lift arms do not stay up when not engaged so it looks like I need to re-build my hydraulic lift cylinder and it looks like I need to take off the shifter gearbox cover to get the cylinder out. Removing the cover does it just unbolt and lift up or do you have to disconnect any...

I've been having all the electrical problems encountered by many other owners. Gauges intermittent, now not working at all. I've been through loads of the old posts here which all say the same thing about bad grounds etc. I have pulled the cluster (older style), cleaned every terminal I can...

Continuing saga which you may have seen in my previous posts. I was losing coolant but not from anywhere obvious, overheating quickly, coolant coming out of the overflow, lots of pressure if the radiator cap removed, could hear bubbling in exhaust etc. Suspected faulty head gasket so changed...

Hi, I posted this as part of my recent thread on radiator issues - but thought worth putting it under a separate heading to try and get an answer. I've replaced the head gasket but having an issue with a fuel injector. It didn't seat properly and I discovered when I pulled it out again and...

My Jinma 204 started overheating badly on the weekend. TY290 engine. Hot day - mid 90's. It went into the red on the gauge so fast I thought it must be an electrical problem but sure enough when I got it back to the shed, the radiator was almost empty - and I had filled it before I left. I...

new to site....... I have a Jinma 204 and was wondering if Super Tech Heavy Duty Tractor Hydraulic and Transmission Fluid was safe to use as a replacement. Thanks!

need wiring diagram for 2006 jinma 204 alternator

The hood hinges on my Nortrac 204C recently broke and I ordered new ones. When the new ones arrived they were larger. I have now attempted to order the correct hinges from several vendors and have only found the newer and larger hinges. Any ideas on how to locate the old parts. I do not want...

I have a 2007 Jinma 204 and I am hoping a clutch adjustment will put it back to work. I am a COMPLETE novice on clutches and am hoping there is a good example/instructions on how to do the adjustment. The problem I have is that I was dragging some snow and ice. The FEL got hooked on ice, so...

I need to know what common filters may be exchanged for my tractors factory installed ones. The factory oil filter number is: JX0707 The diesel filter number is: JX0706 thx

Found a FarmPro 2420 for cheap - same as a Jinma 200, I think - 2wd. It has a few hundred hours on it - I was thinking of getting it to run a finish mower and possibly a 3pt snowblower. Any good or garbage? I don't mind tinkering a bit, but I don't want to mess with a complete sh*tbox. Are...

Hi All Really hoping someone may be able to help here, as despite being a Siromer (Jinma) dealer here in Spain, we have hit on a major "supply" issue for a part we need.... We operate a 2007 Siromer 204 (same as a Jinma 204) fitted with a 2008 Jinma FEL. Above the joystick control on the spool...

I've started losing hydraulic fluid from the left side axle / hub. I've attached a pic showing where it is coming out. Excuse the messy tractor but its been very wet here! I've been topping up the fluid for the power steering but am losing the battle. Any help on what needs to be done would be...

I have the old style oil bath air filter mounted in front of the radiator. I'd like to move it to increase air flow into the radiator and help with overheating. It gets pretty hot here. Issue is that it needs to be vertical or the oil pours out!. Has anyone moved this type of filter or changed...

I need the conversion to American Filters for my Jinma 204 Tractor. It came with the JX0707 for the oil filter and the 0706 for the fuel. Thanks in advance for any assistance provided.

I was out plowing snow by the barn, going down an incline - when I looked at my front wheels they were pointing in different directions - don't have to be a mechanic to know this isn't good. Looks like a bar between the two front wheels is bent - what is it called and is it hard to replace - and...

Excuse my ignorance on this, but I went to clean the air filter on my Jinma and think it is the oil bath type (without any oil in the bath). There is a round steel wool type filter in a frame, and then above that another steel wool filter that doesn't have a frame. Should I clean these and...

Our mechanic has the tractor apart for the new clutch. He needs to know the torque for the flywheel bolts to put it all back together. 5 years old with the 2 cylinder engine. Thanks.

I've got a 2005 Jinma 204 and I've got a hydraulic pump leak somewhere. My guess is it's where the "back" cover plate is. I've had leaks here before and "fixed" them by tightening up those 4 bolts. Well now I'm at the limit...and it's leaking pretty bad...almost a drop every few seconds...

The headline says it all. Seems my Jinma is causing my sciatic nerve problem. Even gave up seat time for two weeks to confirm what the doc said. So any ideas suggestions for a replacement seat? Cause I ain't given up the tractor :)

Drained tranny fluid out, lots of water came out first. Should I "rinse" it out with something before refilling it? Also, what do I put back in, standard tranny and I live up north. Secondly, my nephew said the clutch slips. What to do about that? We have adjusted it a couple times before. Thank...

My partner was using the tractor today and went to shift from reverse to 1st and nothing. The shift lever just flops around. Any suggestions? Thank you.

Started up my Jinma this morning after using it quite happily the day before for an hour and so. Started first pop but within seconds I had smoke pouring out from under the hood. I immediately shut it down, turned off the key and then went to disconnect the battery. But one the wiring looms was...

I'm looking to bid on a Jinma 204 soon but wanted to check first and see how hard AG tread tires are to find for this tractor. The tractor has turf tires right now and I'm not sure how well they'll do on our hills with snow (thoughts?). The owner stated that the fronts were 6.00x12 (found them)...

I have read about the napa fuel filter for the Jinma - but seems that it comes with a note that threads may have to be extended - new to me - how would you do it? Cheers rider

I see reference to both these models on the site, they are the most basic, cheapest models. The 204 is basic, with the 204s being the next step up. Seems the differences are limited to an extra cylinder, high lift 3ph, different tyres and a 1" bigger clucth on the 204s. The price is higher, but...

Has anyone had problems with leaks around the water pump. I tightened all the bolts but I still have a leak. Anything I should know before I get the tool kit out and replace the gasket? My engine is running hot in about + 90 degree heat, so I've been following the discussions re thermostats...

Never really got all the electrics to work when we got our crate tractor a few years ago. Now it's time to rewire it. I have the individual guages, not the cluster. I know some have replaced the oil pressure guage with a different one, what was it? Also the tank always leaks, wasn't there a fix...

The speed regulator that contols raising of 3pt hitch will not unscrew,I broke plastic handle on it trying to move it.Located below seat about 3" .Any ideas .

I live in a homewoners association and we maintain about 11/2 miles of gravel road. The homeowners association purchased a 1948 Ford 8N that is in good condition. This tractor has been used for several years to grade the road and to remove snow. I was helping the neighbor that keeps and...

Hello, I'm close to deciding to purchase a Jimna tractor, but I'm deciding on which one is best suited for my needs. I'm considering the following attachments: FEL Finish mower (pull behind, not the under belly) Tiller Blower The reason I'm considering this type of tractor is because I'd...

This is not meant as a classified ad here in the discussion side of the site. My question is, with Ebay fees ever rising, where are some other sites or areas of good exposure to list for selling a tractor? Or is Ebay the way to go? I have checked into the Classified section on this site, but...

Has anyone ever done a diagram or a list of all the grease nipple locations - I'm sure I'm not getting them all. I'm about to change the transmission oil as well and am not sure how many drain points there are and their exact location. Many thanks Mark

This seems to be the little tractor that could. Everything I have thrown at it, it tackles. Can a 204 move round bales of hay and then stack them two high on a flatbed trailer. You bet it can. Check it out http://community.webshots.com/user/jonrjen

I was using my tractor the other day - about 500 hours on the clock - and heard a clunk. A quick investigation revealed the fan was missing a blade, which I found nearby. Fortunately there was minimal damage to the radiator. I removed the radiator and when I took off the fan (the 4 bolts were on...

how can this be true? ebay #3856237802.

i would like to find a dealer in cental ohio who sells jinma. if anyone can help please let me know. im looking for a 204

For those interested in something better than what I had for a quick reference I've worked up an Excel sheet and a .pdf file containing a Maintenance Schedule for the 204/254 class tractors. Much of what is suggested here is from my NorTrac manual. My intention is not to disclose any...

I currently have a Jinma 204 with a FEL, I have been pleased with it so far. I am wondering if it would be worth upgrading and purchase a Jinma 284. Can anyone tell me if the power difference is noticeable? Will my FEL off of the 204 transfer to a 284? Are the frames the same or is the 284...

Has anyone used a 3PL Boom spray unit on a 204 ? I'm looking at getting a small one and am concerned about the weight. The smallest unit here (Australia) is 300 litres which would weigh approx 660 pounds + the weight of the tank and a 6 metre boom. Am I right that the hydraulics are rated to...

As I mentioned in another post, my tach/hour meter is not working on my new Jinma 204. As suggested, I adjusted the sensor in the flywheel housing and also verified that the sensor would respond (close/open circuit) when I pass a magnet over the face. Connector is ok. So I pull the...

Just took delivery on a new Jinma 204 and now have about 4 hrs on it (can't tell for sure since the tach/hr meter is not working). After working the backhoe and FEL intially in creep and low range, reverse and 1st gear, etc. I took a drive to the mail box in high (creep) and high range. 4 wd...

G'day. I'm in Australia and read many of the posts in your section before deciding to buy a second hand Jinma 204 (under the name Work Horse). Much against the advice of all the local farmers who love MF and Fiats. The Jinma is a 2003 model with about 400 hrs on the clock. It runs well and I...

jinma 204 3point hitch adjustment I have a new 204. When I use the 3 point it won't stay put. It gradually goes down. Also it appears I have 3 positions. Does it have a float position? And is there a adjustment so when I lower it to a certain position it will stay there?

Hi Folks. I'm a newbie to this forum and I need some help. I just purchased a Jinma 204 in the crate. This tractor was new but had been in the crate for a few years. Anyway, after much trial and error, I finally got it assembled. After priming the injection pump and bleeding the lines, I...

I'm looking at one of the tractors from Northern Equipment. Right now I'm looking at the 204 (20 hp 4wd) with a front loader. The hardest work I'll have for the tractor is pulling a 6.5 ft tandem gang 3pt disk. I only use it a couple of times in the spring getting a 100 ft x 100 ft garden...
