The AERA Technical Committee offers the following information on a camshaft/bearing caution on 1988-2020 John Deere 4024 and 5030 diesel engines. The caution expressed should be considered during engine disassembly to save time and expense.

Another unusual component for an industrial engine is the use of hydraulic lifters. |
