    Do I really need them?

    I was told they keep snakes out. I don't know if it's true, though.

    Bobcat 864 Skidsteer (deutz 73 HP turbo diesel)

    Is the fuel bulb hard when it starts running bad? What happens when you pump it? Did you clean out the fuel tank when you replaced the pickup? What happens if you put a jug of diesel above the engine and let it gravity feed into the engine? I had similar problems on a T200, and it turned out to...

    Question about Deutz

    Thanks, bobbie-g. I found my lift pump there, just to the left of the dipstick. I took the screw out in the center of the pump, and the little basket-like filter came out. There wasn't much debris in it, but I cleaned it out anyway. When I put it back, I guess I didn't get it tight enough...

    Question about Deutz

    Smallie, where would the lift pump be on my engine? Towards the timing chain end or the drive belt end?

    Question about Deutz

    Nate, I did, thank you. I am almost certain the problem was a little corrosion on the #2 glow plug wire. I pulled the boot off, wiped it with a paper towel, put it back and it fired up right away. It's been good since. As I thought about the problem, the glow plugs were the obvious answer. The...

    Another question about Deutz

    I am preparing to replace a glow plug. The engine is a Deutz BF3M1011F. It uses 4 plugs in the head. I read through the manual, and I can't find a spec for the plug. I think it's Deutz 118 0400 or Beru 0100226239. Does this sound right? Any suggestion for sources? If those numbers are right...

    Question about Deutz

    It turns out that wasn't it. I had the same problem today. Primer bulb is full. I don't think it's fuel, since once the engine has been started for the day, it starts fine. Once it starts, it runs great. When I have the problem, it seems to start instantaneously, but then not fire on the next...

    do you have Service Analyzer to test a delux panel?

    Someone with more knowledge will be along soon, but the left panel is telling you the computer has a stored fault code. Hold down the Lights switch and copy down the numeric code that's displayed. You can search the numbers online. People here have posted what the codes mean. That will give you...

    Question about Deutz

    I hope I have it figured out. I have a very experienced operator who is helping me out with some work. I am out of the cab when he starts it. I hear it fire, and die, fire and die, over and over. When I run the machine and shut it off, I let the engine temp equilibrate for a few minutes, and set...

    Question about Deutz

    Thanks. I'll check the primer bulb. The curious thing is that once it get going, it runs great.

    Question about Deutz

    I have a T-200 with the Deutz BF4M1011F. It has run perfectly until recently. It would start on the first rotation of the crank, always in less than a second. This was regardless of the temperature. Sometimes I would forget to wait for the glow plugs to heat up, and it still started great. Now...

    Replacing timing belt

    Found this. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ae13eR-I1rU I've not done this job, but the video looks pretty good.

    Replacing timing belt

    The timing belt is a maintenance item. I think it's replace every 500 hours or 2 years.
