Harness is 1 red, 1 black, then 1 black that went to the ground stud on the old. I tried ground that black wire to other grounds. Not touching it with the red

Aftermarket pump not oem but everything looks near the same. I kinda thought about it being miswired. Need to try and disassemble the pump wiring and see what the deal is

Started raining and snowing hard so I called it for the day to go plow. If it's not hooked up, pump has no power. If I ground it to anything ( body, chassis, even pump bolt ) blows the fuse instantly. Something funny’s going on, considered just running a separate relay and toggle switch to the...

That’s what I thought. If it’s not hooked up, pump has no power. If I ground it to anything ( body, chassis, even pump bolt ) blows the fuse instantly

Made progress and could use help, fuel pump assembly issue. Completely clogged internally. Ordered a whole setup ( filter housing and pump ) however the old housing on port 3 ( back right ) has a pressed in threaded bolt where a black wire goes to from the fuel pump harness. The new pump does...

Intake looks fine. Ended up renting a skid to finish the work this weekend and will be tearing apart the new holland this week starting with the fuel system and cleaning everything then going from there

No antifreeze in the fuel ( exhaust has slight blue tint which would be burning oil that I already knew about but no antifreeze mixing ). I don’t have any lights flashing indicating a code being thrown unless there’s another way to view them

I just let it sit for an hour and half and got it started for about 5 minutes. Long enough to get it parked before it shut down again. Still chasing that shut down issue though

Pulled the tube today, no clogs, filled the tank up and it ran fine for about an hour this time then the same issue. Although now it shut off with the boom raised and doesn’t wanna crank over. Assuming there’s a hydraulic safety on it

My plan is to bypass the tank temporarily with a 5 gallon container with fresh fuel and see how that goes. Check the main filter as well and the pickup tube then go from there

It’s currently pouring rain so as soon as it breaks ima get out there and see what happens

Yep, I have knowledge in mechanics and rebuilt truck engines before. I’ve checked everything I knew of, first time working on a skid and an older one at that. I’ve been assuming it’s a fuel related issue just from it looking to me like fuel starvation. I’ll pull the whole tank and clean that...

How would that affect it after 20 minutes of use though? For the first startup it’s perfectly fine, once it gets warmed up though it starts the issues. I would assume if it was a dirty line it would have issues the entire time

Yeah, air is good. Fuel was replaced before I picked it up. I cleaned out the resv yesterday morning and added new just to be safe

Hey all, I got a NH ls180 ( turbo model ) skid steer I picked up fairly cheap. It’s been beat hard and seen better days but starts up and runs ok. The main issue I’m having is after about 20-30 minutes of use it’ll start a surging idle and drops low and will stall out. I ruled out a fuel cap...
