Just joined but have been reading everyones threads for a long time. I bought a jd 3320 this spring and though I haven't needed more power I would like to know if it is posible to get more out of my little green machine.

Fuzzy dice and wrinkle wall slicks? Not sure how you could see more power other than maybe changing intake air filter to less restriction. Someone suggested synthetic oils for more slippery insides.. Other than that buy a bigger machine.

The 3520 and 3720 are turboD's but the same engine I was just looking for a little more fuel. Nothing extream.

I am sure the diesel geeks on here can give you better intel than I can. I do know that keeping that air filter clean or going something better will keep your machine happier. At the risk of your machine maybe a kerosene mix in with the diesel fuel?

I have read (ZERO EXPERIENCE) that injecting propane into diesel intakes works like nitrous in a gas engine.

I was looking for a chip or something like you can get for the bigger tractors. Or if I could tweek the fuel pres. I know I can't go to far without a turbo. Just wondering..... good chance I won't do anything anyway

Best power increase...learn to use it properly. That takes some practice and time.
If you expect "instant gratification"...well, ain't gonna happen in the tractor world!

Well like I said I don't need more power, but I'm a gear head and enough is just not enough

I have read that there is a way to turn up the fuel pressure somehow...I would be interested if someone has any ideas. I know that they do it on auto and truck engines all the time.
