splashed into eyes.
Avoid the hazard by:
1. Filling batteries in a well-ventilated area.

2. Wearing eye protection and rubber gloves.
3. Avoiding breathing fumes when electrolyte is
added.
4. Avoiding spilling or dripping electrolyte.
5. Use proper jump start procedure.
If you spill acid on yourself:
1. Flush your skin with water.

2. Apply baking soda or lime to help neutralize
the acid.
3. Flush your eyes with water for 15—30
minutes. Get medical attention immediately.

pressurized system needs space for
heat expansion without overflowing at
the top of the radiator. Coolant level
should be at bottom of radiator filler
neck.
Air must be expelled from cooling

system when system is refilled. Loosen
plug in side of thermostat housing to
allow air to escape when filling system.
Retighten plug when all the air has
been expelled.
After adding new coolant solution, run engine until it

reaches operating temperature. This mixes the coolant
solution uniformly and circulates it through the entire
system. After running engine, check coolant level and
entire cooling system for leaks.
Contact your engine servicing dealer, if there are further

questions.

Disposing of Coolant
Improperly disposing of engine coolant can threaten the

environment and ecology.
Use leakproof containers when draining fluids. Do not use
–UN–26NOV90
food or beverage containers that may mislead someone
into drinking from them.
Do not pour waste onto the ground, down a drain, or into

any water source. TS1133
Inquire on the proper way to recycle or dispose of waste

from your local environmental or recycling center, or from
your engine servicing dealer.

Engine Overhaul Guidelines
Engine life and performance will vary depending on

operating conditions and the level of regular engine
maintenance. Engines can be brought back to original
02
performance standards through proper overhaul procedure 010
and replacement of parts with genuine John Deere service 1
parts. Overhauling the engine prior to failure can avoid
costly repairs and downtime.
Consider installing a John Deere overhaul kit when:
• The engine begins to experience power loss and there

are no known engine component failures.
• The engine is hard to start due to low cranking
compression.
• The engine begins to smoke and there are no known
engine component failures.
• The engine begins to use oil. Refer to Section 04 for
acceptable oil consumption.
• The engine has high usage hours and the owner wants
to take preventive measure to avoid high-cost repairs
and costly downtime.
John Deere overhaul kits have a 1500-hour or 12-month

warranty, whichever comes first. Installation labor is
covered by warranty if an authorized John Deere dealer
installed the overhaul kit and the replacement parts.

Disconnect Turbocharger Oil Inlet Line
1. Drain all engine oil and coolant, if not previously done.
IMPORTANT: When servicing turbocharged engines

filter housing or turbocharger before
rolling engine over. Failure to do so
may cause a hydraulic lock upon

starting engine. Hydraulic lock may
cause possible engine failure.
Turbocharger Oil Inlet Line
Hydraulic lock occurs when trapped oil A—Turbocharger Oil Inlet Line
in the oil filter housing drains through
the turbocharger, the exhaust and
intake manifolds, and then into the
cylinder head.
After starting the engine, the trapped oil

in the manifold and head is released
into the cylinder(s) filling them with oil
causing hydraulic lock and possible
engine failure.
2. Disconnect turbocharger oil inlet line at turbocharger or

oil filter base.

IMPORTANT: Lifting straps are designed to lift the

engine and small accessories such as
hydraulic pumps and air compressors
mounted to the engine auxiliary gear
drive, or belt-driven components, such
02
as air conditioning compressors and 010
alternators. If larger components, such 5
as PTO’s, transmissions, generators or
air compressors, are attached to other
locations on the engine, the lift straps
provided with the engine are not
intended for this purpose. Technician is
responsible for providing adequate
lifting devices under these situations.
See machine technical manual for
additional information on removing
engine from machine.
CAUTION: The only approved method for lifting

the 6105 and 6125 Engine is with the use of
JDG23 Lifting Sling (D), R128000 Rear Lift Strap
(E) and R503481 (OEM & AT801 Applications
Only) or R128001 Front Lift Strap (F). The front
plate lift eye (B) can be used as a lifting point
instead of R503481 (OEM & AT801 Applications
Only) or R128001 Front Lift Strap. Use extreme
caution when lifting and NEVER permit any part
of the body to be positioned under an engine
being lifted or suspended.
Lift engine with longitudinal loading on lift sling

and lifting brackets only. Angular loading
greatly reduces lifting capacity of sling and
brackets.
IMPORTANT: Ensure that engine lifting straps are

secured with Class 12.9 (or higher
class) cap screws. Apply TY9370
LOCTITE 242 Thread Lock and Sealer
to lift strap cap screws.
NOTE: If lift eye in front plate (B) is used instead of

R503481 (OEM & AT801 Applications Only) or
R128001 Front Lift Strap, remove alternator (A).
If front lift strap (F) is being used, remove exhaust

shield (C) and install lift strap using shield
mounting cap screw holes.

mineral-free water.
If water must be added to batteries more often than

Preliminary Engine Testing Before Tune-Up
Before tuning-up an engine, determine if a tune-up will

restore operating efficiency. If in doubt, the following
preliminary tests will help determine if the engine can be
02
010 tuned-up. Choose from the following procedures only
22 those necessary to restore the unit.
1. After engine has stopped for several hours, loosen

crankcase drain plug and watch for any water to seep
out. A few drops could be due to condensation, but
any more than this would indicate problems which
require engine repairs rather than just a tune-up.
2. With engine stopped, inspect engine coolant for oil film.

With engine running, inspect coolant for air bubbles.
Either condition would indicate problems which require
engine repairs rather than just a tune-up.
3. Perform a dynamometer test and record power output.

(See DYNAMOMETER TEST in Section 04, Group
150.) Repeat dynamometer test after tune-up.
Compare power output before and after tune-up.

1. Check compressor inlet and compressor wheel (A) for

foreign object damage.
NOTE: Foreign object damage may be extensive or

minor. In either case, the source of the foreign
object must be found and corrected to eliminate
further damage.

turbocharger has not failed. If your turbocharger

the turbocharger has not failed, it is
strongly recommended that the

checking clearance.
3. Grasp rotating shaft at both ends and move the shaft

toward the indicator, then away from the indicator
(arrows). Use care to move the shaft in the same

The preferred method of measuring intake manifold

pressure (turbo boost) is to use the Diagnostic Scan Tool
(DST) and read the Manifold Air Pressure (MAP)
–UN–26NOV97
parameter when engine is developing rated power at full
load rated speed. If the DST is not available, use the
procedure below to manually test intake manifold
pressure.

from intake manifold cover, as equipped. Connect Measuring Intake Manifold Pressure

Universal Pressure Test Kit. Be sure all connections
are tight. 04

2. Before checking boost pressure, warm up engine to 19
allow the lubricating oil to reach operating temperature.
IMPORTANT: Engine speed and load should be

stabilized before taking a gauge
reading. Be sure that gauge works
properly and familiarize yourself with
the use of the gauge.
3. Observe pressure reading on gauge. Compare reading

to the specifications when engine is developing rated
power at full load rated speed. See INTAKE
MANIFOLD PRESSURE (TURBOCHARGER BOOST)
SPECIFICATIONS in Section 06, Group 210 of this
manual.
If boost pressure is too low, check for the following:
• Restricted air filter elements.

• Incorrect fast idle adjustment.
• Exhaust manifold leaks.
• Intake manifold leaks.
• Low compression pressure.
• Carbon build-up in turbocharger.
• Turbocharger compressor or turbine wheel rubbing
housing.
• Restricted exhaust.
