[QUOTE="ajwgator, post: 117141, member: 226"] I'm in Versailles Kentucky. My 4-154 is a 200 series. Since ours are pretty close together serial number wise I would assume yours is too but they only way to be sure would be get the engine serial number and have a Perkins distributor verify that. I doubt that Bobcat would use two different series Perkins so close together in S/N#'s. Seems the manuals say to use the glow plugs any where from 45 to 90 seconds when first starting an ambient temperature engine. Once at operating temperature the glow plugs aren't needed. By the way, have you seen this thread in here? Similar in a way to our problems. [URL]https://www.skidsteerforum.com/threads/843-perkins-4-154-smoking-problem.60448/[/URL] [/QUOTE]
