Engine Disassembly: What Did We Find? John Deere 1010 Crawler Loader 115.5

- Today we pulled the 115.5 apart out of the John Deere 1010 Crawler loader. We pulled out the pistons and found a lot of junk in the ring grooves and numerous stuck rings. Some of the bearings looked ok but some of them are definitely garbage. The governor seems to be broken and was hitting the cam gear because of it. The piston ring lands are pretty trashed so the pistons are not reusable. Then "deck plate" which is basically a one piece sleeve assembly is very worn and not reusable at standard bore. Pistons are not available in an overbore that I can find so it may get interesting sourcing parts for this one.

Absolute awesome job little man, that's parenting done right! I think my son was about 6 or 7 an he help roll bearings in a amc 360, maybe 8ish when I taught him to weld now at 15 he has good work ethics, not afraid to get dirty and actually thinks outside the box. Stay safe and God bless
That is awesome!! We need more people teaching their kids real life skills and less people doing everything for them. I am always willing to help as long as he is putting in effort and actually trying. When he quits trying and tries to get me to just do it for him I start shrugging my shoulders and telling him to figure it out. I have had him tearing old engines apart for me for a few years now just to get him familiar and get him used to the pieces. He has done 20 or so I would guess now. I got him a welder for either his fifth or sixth birthday. It is not an art he has exactly mastered yet but he can successfully attach metal together which is a start.
Nice having son and daughter in the shop seeing basic engine tech and turning wrenches. So, to me it's about hours of run time in the future ... If less than 50 hrs a year, I'd just see what I could do with the old pistons, a 0.005" hone on the bores, new rings, and back together. If it's going to run and work regularly, then that's a another story ...
It is pretty awesome having the kids in the shop working on things and being able to teach them some basic life skills. The ring lands on the pistons are trashed, the pistons are scrap metal. I'm not one to put something together that's not right. Something I am trying to teach my kids is that if its worth doing, it's worth doing right. There is way too much of "good enough" train of thought these days and I am trying to be a good example on this, although sometimes it's hard and my wallet says HE** no.. As an engine builder you learn real fast what works and what doesn't and any damage to the ring lands definitely falls into the "doesn't work" category. The machine also belongs to Dylan who is obviously pretty young so it'll need to last for a while. Once we get this thing back into running condition I don't think it'll ever get shut off unless its getting worked on or out of gas. When I am too busy to doing paying work to help him work on his crawler and need to find him, most of the time I can find him sitting on some random tractor , dozer, crawler or anything else he is dreaming about driving. He will have plenty of opportunity once we start building some roads and buildings at our property up north. We have also made progress on his machine and there will be more videos on that coming fairly soon. Hopefully he will be driving it around here soon Thank you for watching and thank you for the comment, I appreciate the input.
Good job dad! Did my son the same way.
I am pretty proud of all of my kids they are pretty awesome!! Good to hear I am not the only one letting the kids dig in and get dirty. Its good for them teaches them an actual useful life skill.
@@kedfarmrepairs it's the only way they learn, my dad and grandpa did the same to me. I try to get both of my daughters to do it but only one "the tomboy" wants to do it lol
Nice job guys good finds nice job Dylan sweet intro Jake I like it
Thank you!!
What were you tapping on with the punch to help loosen the deck plate? I am helping a freind with a JD 2010 and foresee this project coming soon to replace the o-rings as it has oil in the antifreeze.
When we were taking the deck plate off I was tapping on the bottoms of the cylinders. The key is to be gentle and try to do it as evenly as possible. I have an older engine machinist friend and he told me he has seen many sleeves break free from the deck plate and advised me to be careful.
@@kedfarmrepairs Thank you.
Nice work little one!◇EZ◇
Thank you!!
What about sleeving the bores, I also have a 1010 c that runs but is low in compression on one cylinder and was curious. Also there are some used parts out there.
That was what I was contemplating doing originally. I even found the correct sleeves and was ready to order them to do the job. Once I found out that the pistons in it were junk I changed directions. The only pistons I can find for it are $366 each plus shipping so that is out of the question for sure.
Crazy idea that I've been kicking around my head for those deck plates. Could you manufacture a plate so that it would fit on the block properly, and accept regular piston sleeves? You'd probably have to talk to an actual engine specialist, because you'd have to get special liners for it, and I don't know if there's any off-the-shelf ones that could be modified to work. As I said, crazy idea, and there's probably multiple different problems with it that I've missed, but I'm going to throw it out there anyway.
Thats actually not a bad idea. It may be a good option as well that i hadn't thought of. The issue I keep having with this older stuff is finding dimensions of really anything other than bore and stroke. I like your idea. I bet its doable fairly easily too..
@@kedfarmrepairs I don't know exactly which clearances you're looking for, but I have a collection of old manuals for 1010c tractors, I can look to see if they have anything more than bore and stroke
Not really clearances just blueprint dimensions of these old engines are hard to find but necessary if a guy is going to mix and match parts from different engines and such.
@KED Farm Repairs check with machine shops thatbdo a lot of tractor engines they may have the actual build sheet with specs, I know you could use sleeves outta other engines an build deck plate for way under 1700 (if you had specs) if you will send me data plate with year engine number etc I have couple OLD machine shops here that may have specs
I would have it sleeved back yo std. Should cost around $500 to sleeve it.
It's actually much less than 500 to sleeve it. The problem is std pistons are almost 400 a piece, and ours are junk, so that's very much out of the question...
I rebuilt my 1010 diesel about 2 years ago and got good used pistons from farmer John. It runs very good and doesn't burn any oil. I have no problems at all with it. Soak you pistons in white vinegar and they will clean up nice. It will free up rings also.
@@ajw6715 the ring lands are completely trashed. The pistons are clean, and garbage..
I have also talked to John and there is a decent market for oversized pistons for these engines. I am close to having my CNC machine up ad running so we will give making a set a go. Worst case we make some junk and learn something. As long as something gets learned in the end I will call it a win whether we succeed or not.
