Before starting disassembly of the MF 25 Tractor, make a complete diagnosis of the engine to be sure that an overhaul is really necessary. If an overhaul is necessary, inspect the entire engine for any evidence of external leaks, or defective parts, that must also be corrected before the tractor is assembled and returned to the customer.

Thoroughly steam clean the engine before disassembling it or r-emoving any component parts of the fuel system. Also, make sure to cap or otherwise cover all fuel openings, as soon as they are exposed, to prevent dirt from entering the fuel system. CLEANLINESS IS VERY IMPORTANT AND CANNOT BE OVER-EMPHASIZED.

Where the right and left-hand sides are mentioned in this Part. it refers to the tractor or engine, as viewed from the rear. Direction of engine rotation, however, is viewed from the front of the engine.

ENGINE DESCRIPTION

half of the chamber is for med by a replaceable cap installed in the bottom of the cylinder head. The cap contains the throat passage connecting the chamber to the cylinder. The fuel injectors are a modified version of the .ptntle type referred to as a delay pintle nozzle. Its effect is to reduce the rate of inj ection at the beginning of the delivery resulting in a reduction of the amount of fuel in the combustion chamber when combustion commences.

The A4. 107 Diesel Engine used in the MF 25 Tractor is a four-eyltndsr engine, with a bore of 3-1/8 inches and a stroke of 3-1/2 inches. Total piston displacement is 107 cubic inches. The combustion systemda of the pre-combustion chamber type. The upper half of each combustion chamber is hemispherically shaped and is cast in the cylinder head. The lower

The C. A. V. fuel injection pump is flangemounted on the left-hand side of the cylinder block and is of the D. P. A. distributor type. The fuel injection pump incorporates a built-in mechanical governor and an automatic advance mechanism. The pump is gear-driven through an idler gear by the crankshaft gear.

The overhead valves are operated by a low mounted camshaft and push rods through steel rocker arms. The valves operate in unshouldered cast iron replaceable guides pressed into the cylinder head. Both valves are manufactured from chromium steel. The intake valve head is of a larger diameter than the exhaust valve head to provide increased volumetric efficiency during the intake stroke.

The pistons are made of silicon aluminum alloy and are fitted with three compression rings and two oil control rings. The top ring groove contains a plain-faced, chrome-plated ring and the second and third grooves down

.,.

contain taper-faced cast iron rings. The groove above the piston pin contains a chromeplated, duaflex oil ring. The bottom groove contains a slotted oil control ring.

Cast iron wet cylinder liners are fitted in the cylinder block. The cylinder liners are flanged at the top end and are sealed at the bottom end by two synthetic rubber rings located in the cylinder block.

The crankshaft has four balance weights cast integrally and is supported in three main bearings. End play is controlled by three 1800 thrust washers; one each side of the rear main bearing cap and one to the rear of the cylinder block half of the bearing. The connecttng rods and main bearings are of the precision type and are steel-backed aluminum tin lined.

VALVE GUIDES

The valve guides are made of cast iron and are of the shoulderless type. Intake and exhaust valve guides are not interchangeable, as the exhaust guide is 0.310 inch longer than the intake guide. Refer to Fig. 14, showing the guides in place.

The inside diameter of the valve guides is

O. 314-0. 3155 inch. The operating clearance between the guide and valve stems is 0.001- 0.0035 inch for the intake valves and 0.0015- 0.004 inch for the exhaust valves. Replacement valve guides are pre-sized and do not require reaming.

INSPECTION

Thoroughly clean and examine the guides.

Replace guides that are scored, or otherwise damaged. Measure the inside diameter of the valve guides and replace guides, if diameter is more than 0.3155 inch, or if valve guide-tostem clearance exceeds 0.0045 inch.

REPLACEMENT

Remove valve guides by pr-ess ing them out the top of the cylinder head. To install new valve guides, use a piloted drift 0.002 inch smaller than the inside diameter of the guides and press, do not drive, them into position from the top of the cylinder head.

When installing the shoulderless guides, insert the end with the long chamfer (both the ends are Chamfered, but with different angles) from the top of the cylinder head. Press the valve guide into the head until the top end (short chamfered end) extends 0.820 inch (+ or -0.015 inch) above the top face of the head.

VALVE SEATS

Both the intake and exhaust valves seat directly in the cylinder head with no seat inserts being used.

INSPECTION

Thoroughly inspect each valve for pitting, burning or other evidence of leakage. If any of these conditions ext st, or if new valve guides have been installed, the valve seats must be refaced.

MASSEY -FERGUSON GROU P I - SECTION G - PART 2

ENGINE OVERHAUL PROCEDURES

SERVICING

Select the proper diameter stones and reface the intake and exhaust valve seats to a 45° angle (10 interference angle used). Remove only enough metal to clean up and true the face of the seat.

IMPORTANT: The head of the intake and exhaust valves, uihen installed in the cylinder head, must be between the limits of 0, O~8-0. 048 inch below the cylinder head face, Do not rejace the valve seat or valve to the point that the valve depth exceeds the amount specified,

After refacing the valve seats, install the valves and measure the valve head depth, as shown in Fig. 16. Also, check width and location of valve seat contact area. Contact area should be 1/16-3/32 inch wide and located in the middle of the valve face.

CRANKSHAFT AND MAIN BEARINGS

The crankshaft is forged from chrome molybdenum steel and is supported by three main bearings. The crankshaft has four counter weights formed integrally with the crank webs. Crankshaft end play is controlled by three 1800 thrust washers; one on each side of the rear main bearing cap and one to the rear of the cylinder block half of the bearing. The rear main bearing journal carries a shallow oil return helix which prevents oil seeping out past the rear oil seal. The main bearings are of the non-adjustable type and are steel-backed aluminum tin lined.

The main and connecting rod bearings are available in standard and 0.010 inch, 0.020 inch and O. 030 inch undersizes.

The main bearing caps are made of heavyduty cast iron and are located on dowels in the cylinder block. All bearing caps are specially dowelled and cannot be installed the wrong way around. In production, the main bearing bores are machined with the caps in position. If, for any reason, a main bearing cap becomes damaged, it will be necessary to replace the cylinder block complete with bearing caps.

NOTE: The front main bearing cap can be removed with the engine in place after removing the oil pan and the four bottom bolts in the timing gear cover. The rear main bearing cap cannot be removed ioithout removing the flywheel.

Oil seals are provided at the front and rear ends of the crankshaft. The front oil seal, as shown in Fig. 29, is of the spring-loaded type and is contained in the timing gear cover. The rear oil seal is oC the rubber core asbestos rope type and is contained in a two-piece sealed retainer, as shown in Fig. 45 •

4. Remove the two long setscrews and spring washers securing the housings together and remove the housings.

REPLACING OIL SEALS AND INSTALLING THE HOUSINGS

Before installing the new oil seals, make sure to carefully clean the seal grooves and old gasket material from the oil seal retainers.

To install the new oil seals, place each half of the seal retainer (one at a time) in a vise and proceed, as follows:

1. Press approximately one inch of the new asbestos seal into each end of the groove in the seal retainer, allowing the seal to project 0.010-0.020 inch BEYOND both ends of the joint face. This amount of projection assures correct contact between the end faces of the seals, when the retainer halves are installed around the crankshaft.

IMPORTANT: A projection exceeding that quoted must be avoided, because the exces s may no t s e tt le ill the retainer groove and may he forced over the joint face as the retainer halves are pulled together. Thus, the retainers ma.v be held slightly apart and cause 0,,1 oil leak.

./)JI"- tn .th». -iatiAKi4lrp.nce between the seai'a;id its groove, it is possible that

the seal may not fully seal into tile grooue, giving the impression that it is too 10l1g. EACH SEAL IS OF THE CORRECT LENGTH AND MUST NOT BE TRIMMED AT ANY TIME.

2. The middle of the oil seal will bulge out of the groove and must be pushed in with the fingers, by working from the center, until well bedded in the groove. Use a round bar of metal and, by rolling and pressing, further bed the oil seal in place, as shown in Fig. 46. MAKE SURE THAT THE SEAL EXTENIE O. 010-0. 020 INCH BEYOND aorn ENm OF THE JOINT FACE. Any gap at this joint, when the seals are installed, will allow oil to leak past the seal.

3. Repeat the above steps for the other half of the seal retainer, then, proceed with step No.4.

4. Remove all the old gasket material from the sealing faces of the cylinder block and rear main bearing cap, then, assemble the two oil seal housings together and tighten the two long bolts securing them together. Using sealing compound, place new gaskets on the back [aces of the two housings, making sure that the butt faces of the gaskets meet and that all bolt holes align. Allow the sealing compound to dry to secure the gasket in position.

5. After the drying period, remove the two long bolts and separate the housings.

6. Lightly coat the butt faces of the two housings with sealing compound.

7. Liberally oil the oil return groove at the rear end of the crankshaft.

8. Liberally oil the exposed inside surface of the oil seals.

9. Assemble the two oil seal housings around the crankshaft over the oil return groove and assemble the housings together with the two long bolts.

10. Swivel the housings around the crankshaft to further bed in the seals and to make sure the assembly turns easily on the crankshaft.

11. Secure the housings to the cylinder block and main bearing cap with the six setscrews and spring washers .

12. Complete reassembly by reversing the disassembly procedure.
