Combines V8 deutz

camshaft, You might try loosening the injection lines one at a time on that bank and see if you can determine which hole is the culprit. If you find the hole that eliminates the smoke when line is loosened,you can have that injector checked and if need be,a compression check done on that hole. I did have one that I found the hole in which the smoke would stop when you loosened injection line and then smoke again when line was tightened.This engine ended up having one hole in injection pump not working properly. Hopefully this helps you in troubleshooting. Hyper Harvest II

Had a 60 doing that, until it shelled the injection pump, to the tune of $5,000. After the pump was rebuilt,no more smoke.

My R60 doesnt smoke as much as it did before I had the pump and injectors cleaned and adjusted. If you have your pump repaired, make sure to have the guy set low idle to a lot less than the factory recommends. I idle mine at about 500rpms when engaging separator and feeder and believe me, chains and belts last a lot longer. If the guy won't do it, you can call your area rep for Bosh and get specs to assure the guy it can be done.

No turbo on this one. Wish it did, I could use more power at times. Something I think of from time to time is those mufflers, how much power could be gained by removing them and making up a straight gut exhaust systemIJ

you will not notice any difference - just more noise unless you have a baffle loose and blocking the flow. You have some pretty good things to check on the above posts. If you want to really get specific in trouble shooting, remove the exhaust manifold and see which cylinder(s) are at fault if the trick of losening the injector feed line doesn't show up a cyl at fault. You may not have any real problem at all. As engines wear some oil control problems when cold are not uncommon if they clear up when tolerances even out at operating temp and excessive oil consumption doesn't occur..

No one hit on one of the most important items on a duetz. Set the valves. have it done correctly. that is to say setting cold for 24 hours (average room temp) and to spec. it really shouldnt matter which cylinder is the problem because all the valves should be reset and all of the injectors reconditioned. when having your pump done be sure and order the spring kit from your gleaner dealer and have it installed, also have pump station install new gov. drive snubbers regardless of how they appear. it will save a repair later down the road. good luck vstk

You are now the proud owner of the best engine in the entire world. The only thing I would suggest is to make sure the cooling fins are not plugged with mud. Then keep them clean. Is your engine in a combine, tractor, or some other applicationIJ

Deutz V8 used in Gleaner combines have gear driven cooling blower. A fluid clutch coupling provides final link. This fluid coupling is not controled by any electric solinoid or exhaust thermostat found on some other Deutz applications. Engine oil pressure is directly plumbed to fluid coupling to keep it running at direct relation to engine RPM. Check post back on the January 14th for additional tips in a combine application. Good luck

Engine is in a combine. I'm from Europe but this is the only site i can talk a little about Deutz engines. I'm not speaking German so i can't post in German sites.
