Then to the poster about the timing belt...It is surely no SB Cheby timing chain but...our local Bobcat dealer, (Walden, NY) is fantasic with advise and he even LOANED us the his tools to do it right...and yes..the cam cog was loosened and rotated to remove the slack on the back side from cam to crank....I think I might have 7lbs tension (book calls for 6 to 9.5lbs. I think..it's been a while..) Then for the cam bolt torgue..OMG..torgue and then turn bolt X amount of degrees....I thought I was gonna snap the bolt... Anyway...after the new oil pump and belt the machine fired up BUT it ran on only 2 cyls...it appeared the individual injection pumps and even some injectors were gummed up. I switched injectors around and found one of them clogged.. I emptied the fuel bowl and filled it with Seafoam 2 or 3 times...slowly.... but surely... it came around to hit on 3..... and then finnally on all four cyls... L.L is still on that SAME tank of fuel....(we don't use the machine much) I say dump it and start with fresh fuel....... Now...with the BIG picture...replace fuel.....then go to.......maybe injectors.....?????...Thanks</p></blockquote><p></p>
