I just wanted to add to this as I'm having the same issues with my LS160. 1670 hours Starter turns the engine good when engaged, but on some attempts it is late grabbing the ring gear and grinds before catching and turning the engine. it never slips out once its engaged. I have never had another...
You are going to have a full load. Also I hope you have operated a 853 or 863 model before so you know about the servo controls for the steering. They lack feedback to the operator and make it hard to control the machine for fine movements like picking up your attachment. I had one I rented out...
Has anyone heard of this or had it done. I checking the reduction gear box oil lever is a pita and it would be easier to just have to deal with the chaincase plug instead. I heard there was a bulletin from NH and a update with a center drilled bolt to allow the oil to flow back and forth. Ken
I run a Erskine 84" on my s150. The wide the better imo unless the yards you do are full of obsticles. As for loosen soil I prefer to run the tiller 1st as it loosen the soil quicker and I'd rather find the big rocks with my tiller then the rake. Once the soil is loose the rake won't stall near...
Pretty sure you will need more beef then that, There is a lot of force away and towards the machine on those arms as you dig. Back as you try to get the bucket in the ground and forward as you try to rip rocks stumps and tough dirt out. There is a reason they make the arms that big. On most or...
Blowby does not seem too bad and is reasonably smooth, not like one cylinder is real bad. I have no idea if the head they put on was rebuilt. I hooked the injectors up to the lines and they are completely worn out. So we are going to try a set to see if it will start running on all 4 again. Yes...
I got this 3750hr t190 in for a customer. He bought it as a basket case. Someone put a head on it, But never bothered to clean the very dirty rad. He took the turbo off and had me put on a new one it did not need imo, before deciding its beyond him. Only running on 2 cylinders. 3 and 4 never get...

What diameter is the cylinder? Anything over a 4” bore is going to be slow to fill in my estimate, I have a 4” splitter, but also run it on high flow, so the machine is capable of 24 gpm reved up. Generally I find 1700 rpm makes it move fast enough. But if your splitter has a 5' bore the volume...
