I'm looking at a 1941 D4 that the seller says the cam for the injection pump doesn't spin. The pony fired 2 years ago, and the engine will fire on ether. Did you see anything obvious that I could look at? The dozer is pretty reasonable at $1600, but I have no idea when it last operated.
I assume you are talking about the accessory shaft that runs the fuel pump and injection pump. That shaft is ran by the timing gears under the front cover, possible that there could be a key missing out of the gear, so the shaft couldn’t spin. Really hard to say until you just start wrenching on it. Sounds like a pretty good deal, got any pics?
@@uptheholler1501 that sounds like the one. I have not seen it in person. It's rough, but I just want a small dozer for my property. I'm looking at this and a Terratrac. I'll try to message you a couple pictures
