Back to square one. Installed a new starter and get nothing. No lights, beeping nothing. Tried jumping the starter and nothing there. Just a few little sparks.

I pulled the starter and did a few bench checks to it. solenoid works, motor doesn't. So, I'll track one down.

Blew an attachment hydraulic line that sprayed me and part of the cab with oil. I power washed the outside as well as the engine compartment while I was at it. I lightly sprayed the oil off the inside of the windows without hitting the upper panels. I let it drip dry a few hours , then started...

Yea i thought of trying that turning the seat down a little, that will probably help. Thanks

I think I figured out my own problem. The spring is missing on the left side of the lap bar. The same side as the magnetic switch. I tested the action of the lap bar and it triggers very easily. With my winter coat on and me needing to loose a few pounds it is enough to lift the bar real easy.

Ill be running my S130 just fine pushing snow or driving it when all of a sudden it locks up and stops like the brakes come on. I have to re-set the operate button and I'm running fine again. Any ideas? Thanks

Looking for Bobcat 642 exhaust manifold

I talked to a specialty welding buddy, he said that it cold be done, but... Just not to sure of it. I thought i would look for a one first, before i tear it down, and if the welding dos'nt work then i go with the back up and buy one. I do think the brazzing would work tho

Anyone have any leads on a exhaust manifold for a 642 with the ford 1.6 motor? The JB weld just is not doing it anymore. on the cracks.

Yup, I have that covered. Just need to find a new heater, now that I know how big it is

GOT IT! Tried punching it of different sides, It sounded pretty solid. With the puller on it, it would give just a little. tightened till things started to bend, got a bigger pry bar behind it and gave it all I had and went for broke. Plug popped out and I fell off my stool. Thanks for the help

The plug is flush with the block, so I cant get under it. I had petty good pressure on it when I had a puller on it, just didn't want to crack the block. Would I be a be able to tap one side then and kind of twist it, then get under one side? Can you put pictures on here? then I can show you

Anyone know how the block heater plug comes out of the block? I ended up pulling the bolt all the way out and tapping it for a 1/4-20 bolt to make a makeshift puller. It will come out about a 1/16th and that's it. Does it unscrew? I thought whatever holds it from behind drops in and you pull it...

So anyone know where to find a engine around the northern Illinois area? What year Ford Pinto or fiesta engine I should be looking for?

I have a 642 with the ford engine. What can anyone tell me about that engine? I thought i heard somewhere what car had the same engine. I would like to find one to rebuild and have ready to swap out in my 642. I dont have the time to pull mine out and rebuild it, and get it back in right away...
