It's possible that you haven't received any responses due to the lack of specific details provided. It's challenging to provide answers without clear information on what is being asked. Additionally, the placement of your query in the backhoe loader category is puzzling, as a 3306 engine is not typically found in that type of machine. Can you please specify the model in which the engine is installed? Do you happen to have the Serial Numbers for both the machine and engine? Additionally, what is the Serial Number or arrangement of your "other 3306" engine?

Nige mentioned that the lack of detailed information may be the reason no one has responded to your query. It is crucial to provide sufficient details to receive accurate answers. Additionally, posting in the backhoe loader section can be confusing, as the presence of a 3306 engine in a BHL is uncommon. Identifying the model of the machine where the engine is installed and providing the machine or engine Serial Numbers is essential for a solution. Knowing the Serial Number/arrangement of the "other 3306" is also helpful. If both engines are identical, there is a possibility that a swap could work, but only if you have the necessary skills to do so. Making a mistake during the swap could lead to a dangerous and costly engine malfunction. It is essential to proceed with caution and expertise in this process.

Apologies for the rushed post - I made a mistake. The item I'm referring to is a later model injector pump for a 966c, part number 3n 86086.

Do you have the Serial Number for your engine? It's important to determine if it's the primary engine or a spare one. To identify them, look for the Arrangement Numbers located on the plate next to the Serial Number. Sharing these numbers will greatly assist in resolving any issues or concerns with the engines.
