Electric fan will work fine but needs to be as large as the Rad can accept and mounted directly to the Rad. Most electric fans and all I have delt with have their shrounds built to the fan. My New Holland skids have temp sensors for the Hyd oil that rarely if ever read over 150F. The temp...

Straight from the service manual. The numbers were reference to pics on the page.

Remove and Replace 1. Raise the boom, extend the boom lock pins, 1, and lower the boom down on the lock pins. 2. Stop the engine, turn the ignition key to the “ON” position and operate the boom and bucket control pedals to relieve pressure in the cylinders, turn the key “OFF.” 3. Jack and...

You have to pull the belly pan and remove the hose that connects the front section to the rear section. There will be a bolt in the front and one in the back if I remember right and then it kind of tilts out the botttom so you will need some clearance underneath the machine. I will check the...

Yanmar 4TNV88 is the current engine for such loader if that helps anyone. Im not a Yanmar guy so Im out.

If it were mine I would tear it down and see what actually seized. If it appears to be repairable I would give it a try. Now here is my experience. I have been through turbos before and my success rate is just over 50% for reliable service. They are a very complicated although simple device...

I am not familiar with what engines ThermoKing has used but Isuzu makes several in the 50hp range. The 665 machines do well in the 40-50hp range. I have a couple of these machines and a dead one that could use and engine but to be honest I haven't found a viable cost effective replacement for...

Looking good. Where there's a will there's a way. Keep us posted.

No idea what happend to the text above.

It's not good to do but just onetime shouldn't hurt it to just get it started to get the arms up..put the cables on and squirt a little e there in the air filter it will help it to turn over quick. Worth a shot, it helped me before.. Not good and not a good idea in my opinion. Ether has its...
