    Still cant find anything on the Mustang 940E. Can anyone?

    I would suggest trying to contact a dealer, they would have to know, and some links to basic spec's on machine, its was also made between 1991-1997, so parts might be discontinued or hard to find ! But your dealer nearest you would have the best info on that...

    a good way to find a mechanic in your area, might be to try contacting the local equipment rental shops in your area, most of them either use a mobile repair guy, or know of one that might be able to come to your site and give you an evaluation what they think is wrong Knocks, don't tend to...

    Just joined, looking for advice

    I buy the moth balls that come in a vented bag, it holds about 25-30 moth balls to a bag, and when the bags get nasty I just remove and toss, this way they stay together, also seems like having a bunch together adds strength to them and helps keep mice away I also had same experience with...

    BUCKET PINS KEEP COMING LOOSE

    just a FYI< the OP hasn't been on this site since June of last yr, so I doubt he will answer you here? you might want to call your local JD dealer and ask if they have a retro fit kit for your machine, and or an optional straight pin as to tapered one and modify it yourself to add a keeper...

    1995 Bobcat 743B Engine Knock

    yeah I hear you, its never a easy deal when big ticket items fail on things and you have to weight the costs to fix as to start over again, its a crappy situation to be in, been there and know it all too well!(just sank 9 k into a turbo on my truck just out of warranty and then had DEF emission...

    costs are going to vary pending where your located at and who's doing the work, I know a dealer recently quoted my buddy to rebuild his new holland LX 885 motor at $13,500 to do it? I know he plans to do the work himself and think he found a rebuild kit for about 2 grand! so he will be...

    OK< well, with 6,000 hours on it, its getting to where things start to wear out, like bearings and such, which can cause a knock Might want to look into what a rebuilt kit runs for your motor, and maybe have it rebuilt that is if you feel its worth doing, as rest of machine will also have...

    grease fitting stuck

    also , another tip, some times if you just HIT the pin from one side then the other a few times, to just shock and move it a LITTLE< will also, cause things to loosen up and allow grease to flow again, or allow you to rotate it easier too! as some times when things DON"T get greased for a long...

    water mixing with OIL

    just saying, but if you HAD water in your motor, and in the oil pan, , just draining OLD oil will never get ALL the water out when you just drain add new oil/filter, and run, your NEW oil will start to turn OLD looking FAST and can even show signs of water delusion in it! as when your drain...
