Right behind the cab on the right side is your vent for the hydraulic tank. I have had it a small amount come out of the vent before. But I doubt it would be enough to leak on the ground

I got a dumb question,On my l 185 i have a in line fuel filter has clips that lock the filter in the line. How do you unlock those clips,I'm sure its slick and simple but just not for me.

The switch is part of the panel. The same Panel that has the park break.

I checked the grounds and they look good. Kinda got me thinking, would a bad relay act like that? But why would that affect the fuel gauge?

Think this might be a grounding issue but I'm gonna throw this out to the pros. When we turn the headlights on, the instrument panel shows the voltage drop down to 2.3 volts and my fuel gauge go from full to empty,and the beeper goes off. And no headlights by the way. If i turn off the lights...

I don't know if it holds true on the b models but with the C s it needs to be programed to the machines ecm.

I have the same problem. Been going on for 2 years or so and in the summer above 75 or so it has no problems what so ever. I had it in several different dealers and re calibrated the stick replaced speed sensors and nothing has changed. I have just spoke to a tech and his best guess is that...

Had the same thing happen to me a while back. Turns out most peoples idea of a rebuild is new seals and put her back with scared barrels. That tends not to work. I have given up on rebuilds and just buy new. Till ya pay a machine shop there is not a big difference. Think the last one i bought...

As i look around, is see 3 sets of over the tracks, all of which are worn out they all been rebuilt 3 times or so and bout thin as paper so id say there junk. Thinking about tire chains looks like I'm gonna be up state NY for the winter so its gonna be a traction thing. Whats a good chain and...

Heres what ive found out over the years with bucket drift. Its always, for me anyhow has been the cylinders. And ive rebult them myself, never lasted to long. Had the dealer rebuild them, Never lasted to long. Had a shop hone it out rebuild and yet again ,never lasted. So i just buy new...

Might be what everyone is saying, But id look at safety switches going bad. Even the seat belt switch. What kinda lights are on.

Hey thanks for the help. Turns out both bucket cylinders where bad, rebuilt one the other was scared a little more than i liked. But ya know they never got hot that threw me a little. Just thought it might be helpful to share the out come sometimes.

Well i had a sit down with the cat salesman and heres what it comes down to. A tracked machine has got the best ride, stable with heavy loads, Wet muddy conditions they will roll like a tank. Sounds like a no brainier don't it. Well not so fast , those tracks cost cost cost and cost . I'm...

Never have had foam filled but have had lots of fun in sand though. The wider the tire the better off ya are more flotation. And believe it or not bald is better wont dig in, they ride on top. Keep from making hard turns that helps. If your pushing or digging allot your screwed regardless...

Id like to stick my nose in here a little. I do work for the railroads and work on hard ballast rock sometimes and then in swamps and ditches other times. Been using over the tire tracks when i need them but they are heavy to haul around and keeping them tight means adjusting them up every other...
