John Deere 3-cylinder engine on 5403 Tractor |
John Deere designed and manufactured diesel engines provide excellent torque, fuel efficiency, and durability.
|
|
|
| Turbocharged for added power and efficiency |
| |
Turbochargers come standard to improve engine performance, efficiency, and power output.
|
|
|
| Heavy-duty cylinder block |
| |
Heavy-duty cylinder block provides greater strength and rigidity for many hours of dependable power.
|
|
|
| Balanced crankshaft |
| |
Statically and dynamically balanced crankshaft keeps engine vibration to a minimum.
|
|
|
| Optimized cylinder heads |
| |
Optimized cylinder heads provide improved airflow, better fuel economy, and less smoke.
|
|
|
| Low friction, high-ring pistons |
| |
|
The cast-aluminum, high-ring piston design reduces the non-usable air in the combustion area of the cylinders for improved fuel efficiency, combustion, and reduced white smoke on startup. Ni-resist inserts reduce ring groove wear.
Tee-pee connecting rods allow for more strength to be built into each piston while maintaining sufficient bearing surface for the wrist pin in the connecting rod. The overall result is increased strength and durability of both the connecting rods and the pistons.
|
|
|
| Plasma-coated top rings for longer life |
| |
Keystone-shaped top rings move slightly in the groove for a self-cleaning effect. Plasma-coated for reduced drag on cylinder wall and overall longer life
|
|
|
| Wet cylinder liners |
| |
Wet-type cylinder liners dissipate heat to prevent cylinder distortion and rapid ring wear. Wet liners also reduce the cost to overhaul an engine and allow it to be restored to the original specifications, unlike cast-in block engines.
|
|
|
| Full-pressure lubrication system |
| |
The underside of each piston and piston pin is sprayed with cooled and filtered oil, which eliminates excessive heat for long life. The full-pressure lubrication system also has a full-flow filter and filter bypass.
|
|
|
| Electric fuel shutoff |
| |
Electric fuel shutoff is provided by a solenoid on the injection pump that permits using a key instead of a push-pull cable to shut off the engine. Electric fuel shutoff does not allow bypass starting. If an attempt is made to bypass start the tractor, through the use of electronics, the electric fuel shutoff will not allow the engine to start.
A neutral start switch ensures operator safety as the right-hand gear shift lever must be in the park or neutral position for the engine to start.
|
|
|
| Approved fuel |
| |
Approved use of biodiesel fuel up to 5% (B5) concentration. Biodiesel fuel needs to meet ASTM PS 121 or DIN 51606 specifications. A local fuel supplier can provide specifications.
