A unique feature of John Deere engines is that the engines are designated differently based upon the type of the air intake systems used in its varied industrial, construction, agricultural, oil and gas or other applications. Understanding these different designations is crucial in deciphering the application of the engine and in identifying the correct maintenance parts.
The five (5) different designations that are used for John Deere engines are D, T, A, S and H. The D is the oldest and simplest air intake system for John Deere engines. This is a an engine whereby the reciprocating positions will pull air into the air intake system directly through an air filter, and directly into the combustion chamber where combustion occurs.
The T designated engines are all turbocharged engines. The turbocharged engine process was a later addition to the “D” engines to reduce fuel combustion and boost engine power. The turbocharged unit is fitted between the air intake system and the ducts leading to the combustion chamber. Exhaust gases are channeled through radial placed vanes on a shaft, which produced motion in one side of the turbocharged unit. The central shaft then turns a compressor in the second section of the turbocharger, pulling filtered air in and compressing it to a high density. The high density air is then compressed into the combustion chamber. The higher air density ensures more efficient fuel combustion and improved fuel economy.
The third John Deere engine designation is A. The A abbreviation is an indication that the engine is fitted with a turbocharger and an Aftercooler, and the cooling medium in the engine is air to water/coolant. The aftercooler is a cooling device like a radiator with its cooling medium being coolant or water.
In the John Deere 4650 tractor, the intercooler fits into the intake manifold of the engine and cools the compressed air that’s being routed from the turbocharger before it enters the combustion chamber. In the turbocharger, the compressed air makes it denser; however, the temperature of the air has also increased. However, hot air will expand less when burned in the combustion chamber and may also cause diesel knock. The liquid coolant intercooler is used to reduce the temperature of the compressed air to prevent these combustion problems.
The H designation John Deere engine abbreviation is another option to the A engine in that the engine is fitted with an intercooler, however, the cooling medium in the H engine is air. Ambient air is forced into the tubes of the intercooler, absorbing the heat of the compressed turbocharged air, and then being discharged. The H engine aftercooling system is called “air to air".
The final designation of John Deere engines is the S designation. The S John Deere engines are the marine engines, and the S symbol indicates that the marine engine is turbocharged and aftercooled, however cooled by a combination of air and seawater. There are different configurations of this cooling system, which may include additional pumps and pipes to pull in seawater and then to expel the heated water back into the river or sea.

Ford 7000 Tractor
The Ford 7000 Tractor was manufactured between 1971 to 1975. The engine is a four (4) cylinder diesel turbocharged engine, producing ninety four (94) hp of power. Ford tractor parts for the engine can be wither standard or over-sized pistons, rings, main bearings, and/or connecting rod bearings. As is typical with most Ford engines, there are no sleeves in the kit as Ford tractors are the sleeveless engines whereby the pistons and rings are fitted directly into the engine block.
It's PTO shaft can be either the 540 rpm type, or there is an option to have the 1000 rpm PTO shaft. This is a two wheel drive tractor, with manual steering and an optional hydrostatic power attachment on some models.
The electrical system is powered by a negative ground 12V system, producing a maximum of 51 amps of DC power, and charging a 12V 128 AH battery in the process. The alternator is a Mo/Pres model.
The 7000 Ford tractor water pump selection can be a little troublesome without a parts manual to provide a part number. Ford tractor parts for the cooling system and specifically the water pumps, will need to be chosen based on the serial number of the tractor. Tractors built between 1965 to 1975 will have two different water pumps-one with a double pulley and one with a single pulley.
Seats for the 7000 Ford tractor can come in a variation of patterns and colors. There are the blue or black vinyl pan seats, the complete seat with a suspension system, or a newer custom seat from the aftermarket suppliers.

The Allis Chalmers WD Tractor Review
The Allis Chalmers WD tractor was an improvement of previous Allis Chalmers tractors, the A, B, RC, U, UC, WC and WF.
Production of the Allis Chalmers WD tractor began in 1948, and production was continued on a yearly basis until 1953. The WD was manufactured to be a replacement of the WC models, which was discontinued in 1948.
After 1953, the WD was then phased out, and the WD 45, G, and the D series were then manufactured instead.
In 1948 when the WD was being manufactured, the preferred fuel at that time was called “tractor fuel.” Tractor fuel is what can be referred to as kerosene today. However, because kerosene does not burn or combust as gasoline does, it could not have been used to start the engine. Thus, the WED was built with a small gasoline tank. This was used to start the tractor, and then the fuel type was switched over to the kerosene tank when the engine was hot. Today’s tractors that were designed for kerosene are now fully operated on gasoline.
The engines were all manufactured by Allis Chalmers, and were designed for tractor fuel initially, and then the later WD tractors for gasoline.
The Allis Chalmers WD tractor is distinguished by the single or double front wheel configurations. These tractors were not designed with the wide front axle configurations that are typical of today’s tractors. The single wheel used a casted “U” shaped support to house the single wheel, with a wheel shaft between the two ends. The double wheel uses the unique inverted “T” shaped shaft, with the two wheels fixed to both ends. All of the WD tractors were two wheel drive machines (2WD).
Allis Chalmers WD tractors were fitted with a manual transmission, and these transmissions were designed with four forward gears and a single reverse gear. This was used to provide thirty six (36) hp rear 540 rpm PTO take off shaft.
The electrical system was typical of the 6 volts (v) DC circuits that were popular in the earliest designed tractors. These systems continue to operate today, however a significant number of farmers and other owners have converted the 6V electrical system to 12V systems. Allis Chalmers WD parts are easier to obtain for the 12V system that the traditional 6V systems.
The serial number of the tractor varies from 1 in 1948 to 131273 in 1953, when the tractor was discontinued. This serial number is located at the top left of the differential brake housing.
Even though the hand crank systems gave way to the 6V starting systems, the Allis Chalmers WD tractor continues to provide motive power for thousands of farms in North America.

How to Find Ford 8N tractor Serial Numbers
A Ford 8N tractor serial number is the first step in procuring maintenance parts for the famous 8n tractor.
This tractor was an improved model from its predecessors, the 9N and then the 2N tractor models, and approximately half of a million (500,000) was manufactured between July 1947 to 1952.
The Ford 8N tractor serial number has been stamped onto the engine block, and most likely manually done by using separate embossing tools. This, the serial numbers are not entirely aligned, and sometimes can appear in a zigzag fashion, The 8N tractor serial number can be found on the left hand side (located while sitting on the tractor) of the engine block, next to the oil filter, and approximately half of an inch (1/2”) to one inch (1”) below the cylinder head. The 8n tractor serial number can be found to the right of the oil filter, looking at the engine standing on the left hand side of the tractor.
Given that these tractors were built in since 1947, this number can be obscured by rust or paint. A typical Ford 8N tractor serial number will look like 8N433589, with the model being 8N, and the serial number 433589. In practice however, both numbers are not separated. At the beginning and ending of the serial numbers, are placed diamond shaped or star shaped symbols, which signify the start and end of the serial number.
Thus, the given number above will look like *8N433589*. In addition to this 8N tractor serial number, there are other casting numbers on the axle and engine block that can aid in the identification of the machine. Out of these two numbers, the engine block embossed number would look something like A291. This can be deciphered as “A” representing January, 29, is the 29th day of the month, and the last number “1” signifies 1951 as the year of manufacture. Other beginning letters can be similarly deciphered, for example, “B” would refer to February.
As a general rule for Ford 8N Tractor Serial number, in1947 the first tractor serial number was 8N1. Beginning in 1978, this began with 8N37908, in 1949, 8N1411370, in 1950, 8N245637, in 1951, 8N343198, in 1952, 8N44235, and in 1953, 8N540030.
Production of this tractor ended in 1953, and Ford began the production of another model, the Ford NAA.
There are other distinguishing factors between these models between the year s1947 to 1953 that can be used as year of manufacture identification. One such example is the location of the distributor. The “N” series tractors had front mount distributors between the years 1939 to 195, and between the years 1950 to 1952, this was changed to a side mount distributor.

Diesel Engine Motor Oil Terminology and Application
There has been a few instances whereby a few customers were told that if aftermarket oils are used in their new machines, that the machine warranty would be revoked. The aftermarket oil manufacturers protested this action, and laws were then passed that stipulated that aftermarket oils would NOT violate a machine’s warranty, provided that the oil used were in compliance with the SAE and the API standards. If an OEM company has refused your warranty due to oil concerns, then you should contact the aftermarket tractor oil manufacturer and lodge a complaint against the OEM manufacturer.
The API is a voluntary standards group that classifies oil into various uses, e.g., automotive, commercial, or marine. Manufacturers’ warranties are based upon the use of oils meeting specific API Service Classifications
The question often arises, which tractor oil to use, mineral oil, semi synthetic oil, or fully synthetic oils?
Briefly, mineral oils are simply refined crude oils. Despite the name, semi synthetic oils are mineral oils that were further refined, and will perform better that the normal mineral oil. In practice, mineral oils and semi synthetic oils can be mixed.
However, the fully synthetic or “pure” synthetic oil, as it is sometimes called, are oils that were engineered in a lab. Vegetable or animal oils are taken, and engineered until an oil of suitable physical and chemical composition has been achieved. Due to this refining process, pure synthetic tractor oil is much more expensive that other oils. The pure synthetic oils cannot be mixed with mineral and semi synthetics oils.
All OEM manufacturers provide their own part numbers for engine oils. Understanding this terminology can assist in buying Universal tractor oil that meets your engine’s needs. One of John Deere’s motor engine oil part numbers is TY6389 (One Quart). This is the equivalent of the SAE 15W40 from aftermarket tractor oil manufacturers. The John Deere part number TY22008 is SAE 15W-40 equivalent from aftermarket tractor oil manufacturers, however this is one gallon. Ford New Holland part number 1QM2C121AMV is one quart SAE 15W-40, and Ford New Holland’s part number 86641086 is one 55 gallon drum SAE 15W-40 tractor oil.
Notice for both of these part numbers, the oil is the same, however the quantity ordered varies. OEM companies provide different part numbers for the same oil where the volume ordered differs.
Therefore, the crucial information from your oil is the SAE designation. Once that is obtained, any oil meeting that designation will suffice for your engine, regardless of the OEM’s part number.

The Components of a Tractor Starter Motor
All tractor starters used on tractor engines are similar in design. The only varying factors for tractors starters is the operating voltage, amperage range, KW rating, the number of engaging teeth on the front gear, and the direction of rotation of the central starter shaft, whether its counter clockwise (CCW) or clockwise (CW). These are basic factors that all starters will have in principle and design.
A tractor starter motor is built around Flemings left had rule, which states that a conductor (copper wires, called armature) carrying a current (dc power), when placed in a magnetic field (produced by a stator) will experience motion perpendicular to the flow of the current (the movement of the starter motor shaft)
The heart of the tractor starter is the central laminated iron core, onto which are wound conducting copper wires that form a conducting ring at one end of the shaft. This ring is called a commutator.
The central laminated core is made of up several thin layers of sheet metal, with the copper wires wound around and in between the iron sheet layers in a predetermined manner. This entire component, with the shaft, sheet metal and copper wires are then laminated and cured in a furnace. The laminations ensure that there are not electrical shortages between the three components.
The laminations and the copper wire are separated by thin pieces of paper, which are then kept intact by the lamination process, and appropriate string.
When a current is applied to this copper winding, a magnetic field develops. The Loops of wire used is called an armature.
This entire laminated armature shaft is then placed in to the starter motor housing. Onto the housing of the starter motor is fixed more sets of copper wire loops, called a stator. The armature spins inside of the stator via bushings and bearings. The clearance between the two can be as little as a millimeter.
As per starter motor wiring diagrams, current is passed through the stator and the armature at the same time. The stator produces a fixed magnetic field that can be likened to the force of a strong permanent magnet.
The armature, being mounted onto bearings and bushings, will have its own magnetic field induced in it from the current. This magnetic field will react to the magnetic field of the stator, producing a motion in one direction as per Fleming’s Left Hand Rule.
There are many other parts that are used in a start motor construction namely screws, springs, end plates, solenoids, commutator brushes, and drive gears. These additional parts will complement the two sections of the starter, i.e., the armature and the stator.

How To Select SAE Single and Multi Grade Tractor Oil
General maintenance of tractors and agricultural equipment will include an oil change and the question will arise as to which grade or type of oil to use in the engine. The answer to that varies with several factors, including the engine used, the fuel used in the engine, the operational hours of the engine, and most significantly, the ambient temperatures in which the tractor is to operate in.
Engine motor oil lubricants offer several functions in an engine, including lubrication, engine cooling, removal of impurities in the engine, a sealer of small microscopic holes in seals and gaskets, and as an inhibitor of corrosion by preventing rust from forming on the internal engine components. To perform these functions efficiently, appropriate oils must be chosen based on the engine application and the other functions mentioned above.
The first selection factor is the engine fuel itself. Diesel engines are manufactured to higher compression ratios and will need better protection than gasoline engines. Thus, the oil chosen must be specially manufactured for gas or diesel engines. The ambient temperature is one of the most significant factors in oil selection.
For above zero Celsius (32 degrees Fahrenheit, the single (mono) grade SAE 40 oil can be used for temperatures between 10 degrees C (50 degrees F) to 50 degrees C (122 degrees F). The straight SAE 30 can be used between 0 degrees C (32 degrees F) to 40 degrees C (104 degrees F). The single grade SAE 10W winter motor oil can be used between -25 degrees C (-13 degrees F) to 10 degrees C (50 degrees F).
The multi grade oils have a large variation of temperature applications, with the largest variation oil being the SAE 0W-40 multi grade oil, which can be used in temperatures -40 degrees C (-40 degrees F) to 50 degrees C (122 degrees F). Like the SAE 0W-40, the SAE 15W-40 and SAE 10W-40 can both operate to a maximum of 50 degrees C (122 degrees F), however, the minimum temperature of the SAE 14W-40 is approximately -18 degrees C (-2 degrees F), and the SAE 10W-40 minimum is -25 degrees C (-13 degrees F).
The SAE 10W-30 has the same minimum temperature of the SAE 10W-40; however, a maximum ambient temperature of 40 degrees C (104 degrees F) can be reached with no negative effects. The SAER 5W-30 has the same maximum as the SAE 10W-30, but is designed for a slightly lower temperature of -30 degrees C (-22 degrees F).
Machines operating in temperature below -40 degrees C (-40 degrees F) will need to use oil that’s typically called “Arctic Oil” which has been specifically manufactured for such low temperature applications.
