    International TD7E tensioners

    There is a product called Rydlyme that has 2 versions regular and a marine version, it basically is a rust, calcium, scale removed that is biodegradable and can be dumped directly to sewer with no additional treatment. I would think the marine version would be perhaps a bit gentler on engine...

    Fiat AT7C dozer blowing oil from exhaust after oil change

There should be a locknut on that rod at the housing end, you will have to loosen the locknut and then take out the 2 bolts at the front of the rod flange that connect it to the yoke. Now you can try...

    Looking for a good older dozer.

    They are quite a bit bigger, the C was a good model for them but do you really need a dozer that size? It's a pain in the butt to move but if it's only going home for good? They had an 817 engine that is getting expensive to rebuild and find parts for also......probbaly not as bad a the DVT800...

    '42 Austin Wetern/ new operator needs help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I think the size for those plugs is 7/8" bit it could be 15/16", they are an oddball plug now so be careful with them..........I would just throttle it down after your down and shut it off on diesel, it avoids the warped valve issues if you forget to put the compression linkage back to diesel...
