Re: JCB 3cx

The lever needs pushed away (anti clockwise) from you to release the clamps. The rotating part that the vertical rod goes into may need pushed around further with a pry bar or suchlike.

Re: 4/98 leyland engine swap between JCB3CMk2 & Mk3?

Yes they are. A few internal differences in the last of the MK3 Powertrain engines but still interchangeable.

Re: parts catalog for backhoe MF50B

But the 65 didn't have a 4.236...
Can't help with the 50B manual but there's a Perkins manual in the forum downloads section.

Bottom picture is of the suction filter for MK 2 and 3. Lie on your back and look up under the step. Don't know if MK 1 has this one or not.

Re: Jcb 3c

If it's a MK1,I think there's only the big return filter in front of the right hand rear wheel.Might be a suction filter somewhere but I'm not familiar with it. The MK2 will have a suction strainer behind/up under the steps into the cab. Flat plate to come off and the strainer is above it. Also then...

Re: Perkins phaser 1004 in 3cx running bad

The thermostat should be inside the housing directly above the sensor you have circled in green. Your engine should really start instantly without any heat with that particular starter on it. Wonder if your fuel lift pump has become weak?

Re: Perkins phaser 1004 in 3cx running bad

Those are coolant temperature sensors. One for the temp gauge,one for the temp warning light/buzzer. Can't remember exactly but think the one circled in red is for the gauge. The glow plug/heater,if fitted,would be on the inlet manifold. Would have a steel pipe and wire attached to it. Back,right ha...

991/00122 is the right kit number.

Re: Jcb 3c mark3

If you're not already sorted by now...it'll likely be the flywheel pilot bearing that's worn out giving rise to the noise.
As said above,Vicary Plant or J Charnley and Sons are likely your best bet for a complete kit.

Re: JCB 3C Mk2 coolant getting into engine oil

Yes it is and likewise if you need to remove the liners. Don't forget to disconnect the oil feed pipe from the block to the head before lifting the head off. It's below the exhaust manifold and can be easily forgotten about.
