[QUOTE=kwschumm;155016] Ah, but that wouldn't be any fun and he wouldn't have learned anything. But Art's suggestion does bring up the point that a friendly dealer might let you look at (or even print out) the parts diagram for that area. [/QUOTE]

As a dealer we help people all the time with the information they need to keep our tractors health up. We often will walk the customer through the adjustments as well as operation hints for longer life.
At fifty hours The clutch should not be a problem although I've reservations with saying that as I've seen people that can take them out in the 400 to 500 hour range from riding the clutch.
Servicing is often hindered with after-market attachments.
The two stage clutches can be a royal PIA when worn. They have to adjust both at the same time to work properly and some times the wear is unequal requiring special machining to equal the pressure plates. I haven't seen the 3400 apart to know the base style but for those we had head aches with thirty years ago we did learn a lot.

It sure is fitting this morning to awake to hear of the hostages in Columbia being freed. Congratulations to those who did the planning and worked it. May each of you have a safe 4th and think of what this country does stand for and not what some wants it to. God Bless America, (and the others also). kt

Very few things in this world that I absolutely hate, but on that list string trimmers would be number one. I think there are four or five of them around here yet and maybe one of them might have a weak pulse yet. But, I've discovered a new brand of trimmer that takes no gasoline, makes no noise, no flying derbris, no back ache. ROUNDUP, greatest thing since canned beer. Enjoy your holiday. Frank.

[QUOTE=Btaylor12;155031] I have a JD2305 that recently when I went to turn on the lights (any - flashers, headlights) I heard a small "pop" and they do not work. I have checked the fuses and they are fine. Someone who owns a larger JD told me it was most likely a relay. Anyone have any experiences with this? [/QUOTE]

When you say you checked the fuses...You mean the MAIN 40 amp fuse next to the starter, as well as 4 fuse block on the fire wall?

If they are all good...then follow the wires away from the battery and look for a bulge in one of the wires...

Hello i am having similar hydraulic problems as others in the forum. Getting plenty of flow but as soon as hook up to any implement lose all hydraulics. It seems as if though i am not getting enough pressure. I believe it may be a faulty press. relief sticking open or contaminated. I am trying to find someone that has a schematic of the system to troubleshoot, and also any flow and pressure specs would be greatly appreciated.

I may be confusing models or brands but I think those tractors have a tendency to have the ignition switch go bad. Is there power at the ignition switch?

Two things here, one it is amazing how quick time runs and how long it can be before you realize you are missing someone. Second seems strange to say how you miss a person who you never heard his voice.

I agree and am sure all do hope all is well for him. Same time miss some others who were here and now less visible if still around. It is shame when a person is not there, not to be missed. kt

Ken, the same chain saw I mentioned above locked up a few years ago. Had to replace a lot of parts. Asked what caused it and the shop who did the work; who sold the saw and only ones who ever serviced it said, the fuel mixture was set too lean. Did not bother them at all the 3 or 400 repair bill. kt

It seems if it was as much fluid as you say, it would be easy to tell if your hyd fuild was way low and if so it was that, but if it were full or near full it was fuel. At first thought you could tell be the smell but you may not. kt

Hard to believe if the cutter is only three months old it would be rusted so tight unless it has something like salt or fertlizer on it some how. I fully agree with Joel but be 100% sure you are getting it released. If you have the new shaft in hand look at it carefully to be sure there is no spring loaded release.

BTW, the cut shaft, don't toss it, you probably can buy the replacement shafts for it using the ends which is much of the cost. kt

Unless I missed something (possible) there should be no reason there is air in the oil simply by changing the oil. After all, all you did was dump the oil supply while it was NOT running, right? If yes, then all the lines should be filled, with the slight exception of possibly the suction line if it dribbled back from the filter or pump.

From my experience, running a pump out of oil briefly (without damaging it) takes a millisecond to start working again once it was refilled.

However, finding metal particles in the sump AND having a slowly operating machine prior means, to me, a wiped out pump. And the fact that it is aerating the oil means that the pump can't make pressure and the fluid is squirting past the side plates of the pump which causes cavitation. And the more it cavitates the more it wipes out the side plates.

Ttommy,

If you have one of those fancy hand-held laser thermometers, you'll easily be able to locate the problem.

With the new battery installed, your starter should spin over like crazy. If it's cranking real slow, you've likely got a loose connection somewhere in the starter circuit. (It could be in the starter itself.)

A loose connection acts like a huge resistor. Any resistance in an electrical circuit will generate a tremendous amount of heat. (A heating element is nothing more than a resistor.) If you have a temp gun, you should easily be able to find the "hot" spot in the electrical circuit. Actually, it may be only about 20 degrees warmer than the other connections, due to the small amount of time involved while trying to start the engine.

If you don't have a temp gun, try feeling the connections with your hand......but don't burn yourself. Any obviously hot connection is a good indication that you've got a faulty connection at that point.

Don't forget to check all connections on the ground side of the circuit, as well.

Joel
