I have an old Clark 732. same problem. I hooked up open ended lines in a clean bucket, unhooked the drive/control stick on the right and used a shackle and a ratchet strap to pull the spool valve open. It worked opened and filled the bucket with fluid. I just shut the Machine down to stop the...

I got it working in the other direction. The aux control rod was not adjusted properly. I backed off the eyelet on the end of the rod 1/4” and that was enough to give me the travel I needed.

After lots of troubleshooting I finally got my auxiliary hydraulics working on my old 732. I don’t think they have ever been used. My controls were so loone, it would not let the control stick move enough to activate the aux hydraulics. I removed the control stick, had both auxiliary hoses in a...

I had a similar issue with my old 732. The distributer shaft wears over time. run well when it is cold and shuts down after about an hour. I replaced the timing system with a Pertronix kit that fit right on my distributor. My machine starts and runs almost like a new machine. I'm not sure if...

I fixed the timing by installing a Pertronix electric ignition kit. I’m still troubleshooting the auxiliary hydraulics.

I have fixed the problem. I got the machine running with help from a friend.the new carb works well.My timing was off which was why it was difficult to start. After reading another thread, I investigated my distributor. The original Ford distributors shaft is worn and has a little play (making...

Thank you.

I bought my machine last year and never used the auxiliary hydraulics. I purchased a snow plow earlier this winter. The plow came with flat style fittings. I switched the old factory fittings for matching new ones. From what I’ve read, to activate the auxiliary hydraulics you remove a 3/8 bolt...

Sounds like I should probably swap out the old fuel pump while I’m replacing the other fuel parts. What was the electric pump you went with? I know you mentioned 15years ago but maybe there is something available online?

Thank you. I’ll give it a shot once I get an extra person to turn it over for me.

I purchased a Zenith 13805 from NORFAR.com. It hasn’t arrived yet but I’m hoping it arrives early next week. I’ll post again if there are any issues with it.

My old 732 was running intermittently, hard to start and would run for about an hour then stop. If I left it and let it cool for an hour or so it would start again and run like before. The carb is leaking gas from the drain and the machine smells like it is running rich when it does run. This...
