My 743 has a v2203 reefer engine swap. I recently noticed that the speed control plate adjusting bolt is missing. Must have vibrated out. Can't find it in the engine compartment. This part is only available at the Carrier dealership, which is not a convenient trip. In the diagram below, it is...

Update. Upon closer inspection, one of the pins was missing from the linkage and the bar would pivot around the control valve spool. A tedious thing to fix.

The pedal also feels very soft when it does not work. The linkage to the control valve is fine. Hoping the control valve is not bad. Could it be something simple like air in the system?

The tilt cylinder on my 743 occasionally does not respond to the pedal in one direction. It will let the cylinder out every time. About every third or fourth time I push the pedal back to retract the cylinder, it does not work. If I wait a few seconds, it will eventually retract, but this makes...

The pin on the injector rack was stuck behind the fork. I placed it in the correct position. Bobcat now runs as it should. Thanks for the suggestions and the great stories.

Thanks again Flyerdan. I found that in the manual and believe I know what to check. I will try it this weekend and report back.

Thanks Flyerdan. This looks promising. I initially removed the pump trying to understand a fuel leak. In hindsight it was not necessary.

Thanks Dr_doAbit. I suppose that is possible. I don't know enough about this part of the engine for your suggestion to help me. A few old posts on a kubota forum indicate I might need to have the injection pump rebuilt. Again, I'm not sure why the throttle and shut lever are not working. Can't...

After removing and reinstalling the fuel injection pump, I started the Bobcat. It revs beyond max throttle and does not respond to the throttle lever or the shut off cable. Managed to stall the engine before it blew up. The throttle and shutoff cable are both attached correctly and the...

Thanks. One of the copper gaskets was missing from the banjo.

It appears to leak from under the pump. I have never removed the delivery nozzles. I will try a bit of sealant and see if it works.

There is fuel leaking from the bottom of my injector pump where it bolts to the engine - around the timing shim. So far I have: 1) changed all of the rubber fuel lines, and checked/tightened all of the steel lines to make sure fuel is not leaking from somewhere else. 2) cleaned both...
