Subject: RE: JD4440 head gasket



I uploaded the pics that were shared on Ag Talk to my Image Event site.

SRI originally posted these booklet pics.

"What you need to get is bulletin number RG14660.

 Installation instructions for cylinder head assembly

6362,6404,6466 or 6076 engines

it will be 11 pages of info on head gaskets and installation according to serial number of engine. tried to take a picture of it but it looks a little fuzzy ,will put it up anyway.  anybody else that has a 466 should get this bulletin to have on hand.  Instructions come with the kit but knowing beforehand whats going on helps a lot."

An instruction sheet should come with the gasket set if you get it from JD, if not, who knows, but there are several different ways to torque the head bolts, depending on the marks on the bolt heads & the block casting number. I wouldn't advise trying it w/o that sheet and/or the tech manual...the latest bolts are torque-turn, but if you use that method on the wrong block, you'll pull the threads out of the block. Also, the torque-turn bolts can't be re-used, you throw them away & get new ones. It's possible the bolt that broke was a torque-turn that got retorqued...may be a good idea to replace all of them even if they're not T_T. All the above stuff about checking for cracks, liner protrusion,  (.001-.004 ), etc. is good, just don't slap a new gasket on & smoke the old bolts down w/o knowing what you've got....466 head bolts were a real snake pit...

Previous threads where above info comes from. 466 head bolts are a well documented issue and serial number and block casting numbers are VERY important.
