hopefully this is the last post about real problems...... new to me 753 seemed to loose it's prime when shut down, once the system was primed the power seemed fine... the machine is supposed to be for quick jobs that would take 5 min with the skid steer that would take an hour by hand (or more likely get left).... this problem was getting to be a real pain in the ass as it would take longer to get the machine running properly than to do the job. it turned out to be the fuel stand off in the tank. when I pulled the 90 degree fitting out of the tank the standoff and screen fell right off. I put a peice of clear plastic hose back in its place and connected the system back up and hopefully bled it for the last time...... hope this helps someone out
 
This fault is far too common, Bobcat sells hard plactic tubing to fix this issue. The standard fuel line over time becomes soft, brittle and splits. The hardest part is gaining access to the plugs to change the pickup tube!

although the fuel line did help it wasn't the answer in the end. The lift pump on the fuel pump was the culprit. $100 +/- did the trick and made it into a real machine
