Deutz Bf4M1011f

[Terryz]

I have Deutz BF4M1011F engine that I need to find the heigth of the pistons above the block. The Deutz manual calls for a special service tool to set up and measure the height to get the right head gasket; one of three. Anyone have the poorman's tools, a straight edge and feeler gauge to get a measurement. Thanks, Terry

Personally I cant say, I havent done it.. BUT, A straight edge & feeler gauge sounds good to me.. as long as all your checking is piston height from the deck..
A feeler gauge costs about 3-5.00 & anything that's straight will work good enough, it doesn't necessarily have to be "exactly" factory straight.
But like I said, I haven't done it..

If you look on your old gasket there will be notches cut into in the shape of a V it will be 1,2 or 3 that will tell you which one needs to be put back .Did you have head milled or just replacing gasket

The old gasket has 2 notches. The head is off because the rings are wore out. This engine was apart at some point in its life and I want to measure for myself before reassembling.I have a deutz shop manual; looking for a parts manual; haven't been able to find anything online. deutz controls acess very tight. not much in the way of aftermarket parts.

Engine SER # 263545 I need part #'s for .2mm rod brgs, piston & ring kits, Ring sets; I'm not sure which I need yet. head gasket 1 & 2 notch numbers. the piston height dimensions are close to upper limit on 1 notch & bottom limit on 2 notches. I will wait until I get pistons back in before ordering head gasket. Which way would you go? Also part # for valve guides; the head has 3 guides that that are 5mm higher than the others; possibly newer updated part, also can you identify the type of silicone Deutz uses. It is a very strong black silicone , it costs $90.00 for a tube Thanks, Terry
