don't have one yet
I own a stock 7710 w/a Denso mechanical pump. How would I go about changing the injection timing for more power and adding more fuel? I just dynoed the tractor at 157hp but I know that these engines can make up to 300+. This will not be a pulling only tractor but I wanted to play with fuel and timing to get the most out of it in stock form. I also have a straight pipe on it. Thanks for your time.

:welcome: to TBN

Your plans sound very interesting, and hope to hear more about how you go about the plans and some pulling results. We like pics and videos... ;)

Welcome to TBN
It's possible the clutch & drivetrain won't like 300+ HP & fail.

You remove the tamperproof plastic cover on the back of the governor.
Remove the 4 bolts on the cover.
Under the cover you will see a small screw & nut at the bottom. 10 or 12mm nut.
PAYING ATTENTION to where the screw flat is.. loosen the nut and screw the screw *in* 1/2 - 1 turn.. and lock the nut down.
KEEPING IN MIND> you can do serious damage to your engine by overfueling it.. 1/2 turn isn't going to melt it but 1 turn and your rolling black smoke.. overfueled.
Best to put it on a dyno to see what your results are.. find you max hp and back it down 1/2 turn.. that way you'll have some reserve when you really need it..

What about moving the pump timing?

There are timing adjustment screws in the drive gear infront of the injection pump..
