water at operating temputure after 15-20 minutes it carries a

Check both sides of the thermostat housing as it warms up with a ir temp sensor and you can tell pretty close when it opens. If in doubt check in a pan of hot water.

That's near the low end of the normal operating temp per the Perkins service manual. It would likely rise some when working.

i have a service manual but could really use the parts book plus whatever you have on the perkins engine. if you could email them to me I would be very gratefull. i have a 83 825 with a bad final drive on the left side. any ideas where a guy could get some parts or a complete assembley?

Hello Sir, I am 1 of u too. I would be extremely grateful to u, if you could help me in this endeavor. I am repair this machine for a gentleman that has become disabled, he was about to give it up for scrap . He is not wealthy and is limited too a small pension, So if I can fix this up and sell it for him , it will go a long way for his happiness. P.S. Possibly you know the problem . He was going forward empty when he heard a snap , his right side seems a little jumpy now. I found the connecting link on the right side chain has a rough top edge and a steel sliver peeled back from it. Any ideas on what it may have hit to do that . I cant find any other problems yet but will pull the filters and magnets to check them . I wondered if it hit an actuator arm? Thank you so much Sincerely: Trev Neufeld
