Does anyone have information on the GPM rating of a Torque converter in an Allis-Chalmers 645 wheel loader? I am currently in the process of replacing the engine due to the old one damaging some of the crankshaft main bearings. While searching for a replacement engine, I came across a similar AC model 3500 from a Gleaner L2 combine harvester nearby. However, this replacement engine does not have an oil cooler for the torque converter. Is it possible to install a remote oil cooler for this purpose? If so, what specific model should be used?
Hello Manny, I am looking at the situation with several uncertainties. It seems that the Allis Ch. 645 loader originally came with an engine output of around 110 kW, correct? The gleaner L2 seems to have a similar power output, right? In a scenario where the engine is at full throttle and the loader is in gear but not moving, I anticipate the converter will require approximately 100 kW. With coolers accounting for about 40% of the 100 kW and a pump flow rate of around 80 liters per minute at 2000 rpm, the system should function properly. An oil/air cooler is recommended. To improve operation in cold weather, I suggest installing a thermo bypass that opens fully at 65-70 degrees Celsius to minimize internal losses in the powershift transmission.
Answer: - The GPM rating of the Torque converter in an Allis-Chalmers 645 wheel loader is typically [insert GPM rating if available].
Answer: - Yes, a replacement engine from a Gleaner L2 combine harvester can be used for an Allis-Chalmers 645 wheel loader.
Answer: - Yes, it is possible to install a remote oil cooler for the torque converter on the replacement engine.
Answer: - The specific model of oil cooler that should be used for the torque converter in the Allis-Chalmers 645 wheel loader may vary. It is recommended to consult with a mechanic or refer to the manufacturer's guidelines for compatibility and specifications.
