Abandoned Yanmar Tractor WILL IT START? Part 6: Transmission Seals

We need to completely reseal the transmission on the abandoned Yanmar tractor project. This tractor transmission has many leaking gaskets and oil seals. We need to split the tractor to check the clutch, and brakes too. This tractor is never going to leak oil again! TOOLS BELOW ↓↓↓↓

Bravo making a gasket
I was taught as a young lad. Use a ball peen hammer. Back side of head round. Cuts the fastener holes all pretty. Save the carpenters hammer for building a shed.

Hi l from Thailand my tractor yanmar 1900 need to repair like this . Thank knowledge

[bigkat]

Dude been here since the beginning. Stoked to see your hard work and dedication to this project

[jimbop]

Yeah Boy, Good stuff Matt, engine rebuild is gonna help me put my 1601D back on the farm.

I've had 6 Yanmars over the years. Fixed and flipped 4 and kept 2. One of the flips was a Yanmar 3000 that I did an inframe on. Still kicking myself for selling that one. Made good money but it was a heck of a tractor. I'll go kick myself some more now.

Great video Matt! I was lucky with my Yanmar 1700, the transmission screen was dirty and the fluid was dark but there was no water to be found. I need to replace the shifter plate gasket cause it leaks. . If I every have to pull the transmission apart, I have your video to reference!

Top tip time. If you use the ball end of a ballpeen hammer, can punch out the gasket holes with it. Just lay the gasket on the cover and gently tap around the holes with the ball end. Hope this helps.

Keep the vids coming!

Excellent and thorough job! Love and blessings from Ontario Canada!

I have a YM 165 with a stripped out clutch shaft. Hoye didn't have one. Still looking. Meanwhile I got a YM 1600 in ok shape. This is invaluable information. Thanx man!

Nice videos, 10:35 push the ball bearings in with the outer edge so you don't damage the balls in the ball bearing.

I wish your videos were up 8-10 years ago when I did all this. I read and learned on my own with forums and the manual. I did writing posts on it on TBN yanmar forum. Also filmed some of it but I am lazy and hate computer stuff and didn't ever do anything with it.

[natevanlandingham]

I didn't see you engage the PTO selector with the gears on the assembly, and maybe it's different than the ym2000, but there is an arm you have to reach in and engage with the sliding part of the assembly that selects PTO speed. I saw you pry that nut and shaft out but that's not the same and maybe it's different?

I've got a 2220D, looks a lot like yours. 3 cylinder diesel, 4wd. Hoye Tractor has even great for parts.

[natevanlandingham]

I just used RTV on those PTO rear assembly and the top 3pt assembly part of the case when I did mine. Easier and way quicker. Tolerances are not critical.

[natevanlandingham]

You can get away with metric or standard o rings in some places but Yanmar used Japanese spec orings that are harder to find. Critical orings need to be proper ones if they hold lots of pressure.

Por el video aprendo a desarmar mi yanmar 1050. Ya todo esta andando. Solamente la parte hidráulica lo q no retiene la carga.

[AmsterdamCesar]

Great vid Matt! Keep on going!
Peeeeaaaacccceeee ✌

[christophergallagher]

About now, I'm wondering what duty this tractor will get.
My 2020D is amazingly fuel efficient.
Bet that 2cyl and 2wd unit will simply sip fuel!
Here ya have me goated me into a trans flush, come spring. Thanks.
Yeah, unless that hammer is an old friend, try a ball pean, for gaskets.

[snowman]

Anytime you use a paper gasket you want to use Aviation sealer on it it will stop any bleed through the gasket

[natevanlandingham]

Most all that water comes from around that shifter boot....most of that work was in necessary., Makes good content though.
