Owen, Pete 23, Somebody? 1066 Injection Pump?

Allan in NE · Jul 9, 2011

The other day I noticed a damp area on the forward body of the injection pump. Tiny little square headed 1/8" plug or some such thing down under the small side cover of the pump.

Got busy and forgot about it.

Last night when I parked the tractor, I see I've got engine oil all over the left side of the forward part of the left frame rail and front end. Little plug is gone; just a gapping hole in the pump.

Is that little guy just a tiny pipe plug? Going into an oil feed galley on the pump?

Tractor runs good and with good oil pressure when I shut 'er off.

Thanks,

Allan

It is a pipe plug, used to lock pump from turning when serviceing pump. They went to a hex plug with a hole in the end for a locking pin. Don't ask me why as I never locked that model pump when working on them. I doesn't lead to a pressurized galley but it goes right into the sump that is running in oil from your engine. Just plug it up, and of course, see how much oil you lost. I have seen the idle adjustment plunger fall out and lose the engine oil but not that plug.
