Butchc 2 #1 Posted May 8, 2017 Hi all, New here to the forums and looking for some tips on a 520LXI with the FD620D Kawasaki. It was dropped off at my shop with the oil pan full off coolant. I have done little with it yet but did notice the water pump is internally driven and possibly a source? Maybe head gaskets?? Wondering if there is a known problem area or I just need to get into it and figure it out? Thanks in advance! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gwest_ca-(File Mod) 11,499 #2 Posted May 8, 2017 Welcome to the forum. Don't see anything in the service bulletins we have. Have a service manual? Garry Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shallowwatersailor 3,214 #3 Posted May 8, 2017 This was the only 5xi model with that particular engine, and I am not sure how many are out there. Maybe a 5xi owner with that particular model may have some information. The same engine was used in a number of JD machines so a JD forum may be able to help. Sorry!

Butchc 2 #4 Posted May 8, 2017 Thanks much for the service manual link and the information. This is an extremely well kept (pampered actually) tractor with 60" deck and only 300 hours. Definitely worth putting some time and money in. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Adams94 1,069 #5 Posted May 8, 2017 I would lean to a head gasket, does it have an oil cooler where coolant could get into the oil that way? Never had one of these. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fordiesel69 271 #6 Posted May 12, 2017 Can you chek the water pump easier? Time ages water pump seals more then hours. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
