I found them half price of bobcat at, http://www.foleyengines.com/ nice people

Was wondering if anyone had a good place to get glow plugs from.my 863 was hard to start the other day when it was cold out, so I pulled them out and checked them...bad. My bobcat dealer seems a little pricey I feel cansidering I found my 743 plugs for $20 shipped to my house for all 4

Sorry guys been a little busy.... The engine bogs down and would even stall if I don't let up on the sticks,so I don't think it is a belt issue.it doesn't smoke at all. When I get a chance I was going to pull it into the garage and see if I can spin the turbo. I was just hoping there was a sure...

Ok I got a good deal on this 1996 bobcat 863.the reason for a good deal was because the guy I got it from snapped the timing belt,he put a new one on put about 30mins on it and it died again.he through his hands in the air and sold it to me.after checking it out I found that the oil pump shaft...

Hi everyone I just got a early 90's bobcat 743 and it needs a few things. The first thing it needs is a radiator grill.the cover that has the cut out for the muffler. The second thing I need is a lap bar. I might need more but that's what I can see for now.if you have something let me know how...

Ok thanks guys I'll see what I can do

Coolant seems to be fine. I'm thinking you guys might be right with it being an injector issue. How long before it burns a piston? I put some sea foam in it with some Lucas injector cleaner,I was hoping to run a tank of fuel through it before I go pulling out the injectors.

I just got a bobcat 743 I'm told it's a early 90's.it has the kubota diesel in it ( I think they all do) when it first starts it bellows smoke from the exhaust ... It smells like it is raw-ish fuel and burns your eyes if you get in it.after it runs about 5 min it clears up and runs great. The...

I just got a good deal on a 863.... It needed a oil pump because the guy put the timing belt on to tight and snapped the oil pump shaft.... So now I got it running,it seems to be ok.now I have 2 questions 1) what is common to the gauge cluster on the right side of the cab (non boss) that would...

Update.....k I was feeling a little adventurous so I took out the bronze filter and put a washer in the return line from the control valve also put a gauge in the port block since my idot lights dont work?.. .on start up gauge said 160psi after it warmed up it went down to 140psi went for a test...

I had the main relief valve out and apart.i put a heavier spring in it but didn't seem to help. The cold weather relief valve in the port block seem to be ok but have nothing to test or compare it to.do you know where i can get one and how much that spring is.what if I put a spacer in there to...

The aux Hyd. Is off the engine seems to have plenty of power...going into a pile tires spin without killing the engine ....climbs pretty steep hills or the ramps on the trailer at a little more than an idle.

The fluid level is good and my lights don't work....it seems like its air when i lift the arms without a load it has small hopps like air bubbles.but how do I find a suction leak and where is the most common place for such a leak.also when you say suction side are you. Refering to the side...
