I have no idea on the timing belt hours I have contacted the local bobcat dealer to give a guesstimate on replacement of belt and oil pump with absolutely no reply

Air filter is clean and turbo runs and sounds as should, I feel there is another relief valve stuck open possibly in oil pump, I am going to replace timing belt and oil cooler in the spring. If I am running 30to40 lbs oil pressure will I be able to finish out the winter without further damaging...

I may do that at least for oil pressure and temp thank you

I may end up doing just that at least I do know the warning system is in working order and will alert me if I’m out of range and shut me down

That is where I need to learn where the gauge cluster for oil pressure and temp should normally be running. When I was running it before, the temp was running around six bars and oil pressure at two bars now oil pressure is steady at three bars and temp steady at two bars. Just not sure what...

So I flushed the oil cooler and removed a lot of black scale looking material looks like carbon but not sure, does anyone have an idea where it would come from? Now having the boss gauge cluster where should the oil pressure and temp gauges be running at while operating? Tia

The outside of the cooler is clean and has no buildup that I can see, feel good air flow even at an idle if there is blockage it is inside

I believe that is part of the problem What is the best way to flush the cooler, I was thinking about removing and back flushing with solvent and compressed air repeatedly

I’m working on a 863 with oil cooled deutz Having low oil pressure, I found a small piece of aluminum in the lower pressure relief this helped, I can run for longer times without coding out but still not sure how to interpret the gauges for pressure and temp. Where should normal operating level...
