Engines can be brought back to original performance standards through proper overhaul procedure and replacement of parts with genuine John Deere service parts. Overhauling the engine prior to failure can avoid costly repairs and downtime. Consider installing a John Deere overhaul kit when:
• The engine begins to experience power loss and there are no known engine component failures. • The engine is hard to start due to low cranking compression. • The engine begins to smoke and there are no known engine component failures. • The engine begins to use oil. Refer to Section 04 for acceptable oil consumption. • The engine has high usage hours and the owner wants to take preventive measure to avoid high-cost repairs and costly downtime. John Deere overhaul kits have a 1500-hour or 12-month warranty, whichever comes first. Installation labor is covered by warranty if an authorized John Deere dealer installed the overhaul kit and the replacement parts.
