Hola Brian, depending on how the controls to the engine are arranged on your machine the engine is stopped by either an electric solenoid or a cable-pull. Both of these methods stop the engine by dumping the fuel back to the tank instead of into the engine for ignition.

If the engine is cranking over fine, developing compression and getting fuel but not starting, check this shut off.

You mention a lot of pressure from the crankcase via the rocker cover, on an older machine this will happen from blow-by, but it should not be very substantial.

Try starting it by putting a small amount of fuel into the intake, WD-40 works well. If it tries to start on this then you know the problem is fuel-related at least.

Best of luck. ....

The Yanmar engines used on compact tractors are direct injection engines and have manifold heaters rather than glow plugs. Some of the systems ignite fuel dribbled into the intake manifold and at least one of these has a plastic jug for the fuel that has to be topped up manually.

I'd verify that it's getting fuel as Murf mentioned and also that the intake manifold isn't obstructed. or in need of a new air filter and I would verify that the pre-heating system is working. Even if the pre-heater is working, it won't start easily if the starter doesn't spin the engine fast enough or the compression is low as Murf mentioned. I'd check battery/cables and starter. A compression test might be good. ....

pistons. Expect them to be 67-88/ea, incl rings. I am

Good luck. ....

Ouch!

If you have the Yanmar 3TN84 engine (84mm bore), you should have been able to get pistons with rings for less $100 EACH.
Sure you don't mean 247 Euro for the 3? I paid about $75 each for the 1/2 mm oversize straight from the John Deere dealer (my tractors use the Yanmar 3TN84 engine).

Gasket sets are expensive, but I find you only need a few of the things in it, esp the head gasket ($30). Yanmar uses a lot of RTV silicone instead of gaskets.

Finally, if it is any consolation, a new engine is prob not available anymore from the manufacturer. I found some at a JD dealer a year ago, and they were $5400 each for the long block. Forget it. On that basis, you did not do too bad.

Thevye been pulled from rolled over John deere tractors. They were in transport from dealer to dealer and the truck rolled. These were salvaged. Have pictures and there complets long blocks, one needs a valve cover and that it. Otherwise these are cherry, new yannnis. (a rare find indeed) Complete oil pan to exhaust, water pump to flywheel. Fuel pump injectors the whole 9 yards. Im need to get these off my shop floor. accepting bids. If you want picts email me on yahoo at badluc1. Why deal with a rebuild when you can have a brand new one for likely the same price, if not less. ....

Heres your support there big time: Glen Moray 12 yr old Single malt. Its wonderful scotch. Or if finance is tight ask your salesman to get you 40 creek canadien 3 grain select out of canada. Its the smoothest , most lovely tasting candien whisky Ive EVER enjoyed. Id spit Crown Royal reserve on the floor for this stuff. Its a sleeper in the stores but a wonderful amber color, no burn no bite, yet finishes nicely. ANd A hell of a lot cheaper than crown. Multi award winner recently. Ive got half of my fire department hooked...enjoy ....

My 1510D has the same problem. It came on gradually. I was having to use the preheat even during hot weather. When running, it ran strong. Then one day it wouldn't start no matter what. It's getting fuel, turning over fast enough, preheater is working. I sprayed WD 40 in the intake and not a hint of combustion. ....
