Hi Mike, I sort of suspected the same . If so...would something like a diesel fuel injector cleaner poured in fuel tank be a possible fix or do you think something will have to come apart? Steve

Hi Guys, I have an LX 985 that will now only idle. If it idles @ 960 and I rev it up it takes about 1-2 minutes to get to about 1300, then if I try to move the boom the rpms drop off fast. Fuel filter is new, electric pump is pumping, pickup not clogged because I blew through it. Machine has...

well that would be a quick fix, huh? thanks mike i will check it out

Happy Holidays guys, I have a machine that just started to show the rpms and battery volatge drop when i turn on my lights. The RPM 's don;t actually go down just the readout. I seem to remember that the alternator is what guages the RPM;s. Any idea if that could be it or more like a battery...

Mike, I took the fender off and tryed to trace the wire from the fuse to dash but i didn't want to cut into any looms just yet. I just ran the machine and wiggled everything i could but nothing shorted out. If it was your machine and you had to count on it to be reliable would you take apart the...

Mike PS could a bad ignition switch cause any of this ?

Thanks Mike...I saw this same explanation in a year old post of yours so I will unblot the fender tomorrow and look. Could the poor cranking be the start relay acting up? Steve

Any help would be great as this is a snow machine I am trying to get ready ASAP. It is blowing the 15 amp fuse that powers the key switch. While it's running it will sometimes die and the fuse is blown. The only odd thing lately with the machine is that sometimes when you go to start you would...

Thanks Mike...I will check it for dirt tomorrow Steve

My LS 185b is not blowing cold air and i thought I might try one of those DIY canisters you get at auto parts stores with the charge gauge on it...does anyone know if it will work and what type I might need....couldn't find it in a manual I have for climate control...just heater info, Thanks, Steve

Tim, Yes mine has the hyd attach plate and your right , it's a godsend..especially in the summer with the A/C on because you don't have to get out. i have not had any problems with the attachment plate..it seems to always line up fine. Steve

Hi Tim, I have an LT 185B(track) and an LS 185B (wheel). My 185b specifically, is bacically loaded with almost all options i know of except Hi-Flow. It's about an '03 i think. It is so unbelievably smooth to operate. That air works great as does the heat. It has the turn signals, flashers...

i regulary check the forum for all the troubleshooting tips but missed this one and wish i hadn't. I'd been using one of my skids periodically to move pallets and the battery light was always flashing, i just assumed the old battery needed a charge. Fast forward to a few days ago when we started...

Does that apply to all NH skids or just the 885?

Do you have hydraulic fluid in it? Possibly leaking?
