I just replaced a hose on my late 90's 763 and had to undo a couple of others to gain access. The hoses that were loosened, moved out of the way, and then reconnected are behind the coolant overflow on the right side of the engine. They appear to go to the arm lift cylinder(s). Now, after...

No other hydraulic work done, but a filter change is next on the list. I assume a damaged pump would result in other symptoms which I haven't noticed.

Bobbie-g, yes, it is the case drains that I'm referring to. I will try replacing the filter "in place". The groaning noise is not present while moving the lift arms or tilting the bucket. Each drive motor makes the same noise. I will run the machine some more to try to get any air to dissipate...

Just replaced both drive motors on my 763. One of the old drives had a stripped stub shaft and the other was weak and too far gone to be rebuilt (according to the hydraulic shop). Anyway, the new drives work great but the groaning noise that was present before is still there. Noise is present...

Hey guys, Just thought I'd get some opinions on a 2007 T190 with the V2003T engine, 3200 hrs. that I've found for sale. The machine is in good shape except that the engine pours oil and is missing on one cylinder. It will likely require a total overhaul or new engine. The asking price is about...

Trying to remove the right drive motor on my 751. I've removed all 4 bolts, the lower hydraulic hose and the smaller hose to the rear of the motor. Can't get my wrench on the top hydraulic hose, so I'm trying to pull the motor out for access. Problem is, the motor won't budge. I've attached a...
