[QUOTE="skidsteer.ca, post: 5116, member: 307"] I pluged my loader in for 2 1/2 hours around noon today and went to start is and again I had trouble with the starter staying engage. It just keep cranking for 7 or 8 seconds after letting go of the key. I now the batt is getting down (its original) after the glow plugs cycled it cranked good for about 5 seconds then began to slow down. So I let the key go but it just kept trying to turn the engine. So I got the pickup to jump it and now the engine is wirlling fast ad slowly gaining speed to the point where it is running, so I let go of the key but it sounds funny, so I turned it off and the starter is still trying to crank. I go thru this start and shut of procedure 4 more times b4 it sounds normal and its not cranking when I turn it off. So now I start it and have it running around 1200 and 10 to 15 seconds into the run, the engine oil light comes on and its beeping at me. So I shut it off again. Pull the dipstick out and its full, the oil is thick (its still @ 0 f was -20 overnite) but it will drip off the dip stick, looks about like 10/30 should for the temp. (what previous owner said was in it,guess I should change it but its perfectly clean) So I start it again and same thing, lite on around 10 seconds after start. So I tarped it up and through a infered heater under it for about 2 hours the it started great and acted normal. So I guess I'll park it in the shop for now Is there something in the starter design that can cause this sort of trouble when its cold out? I see in my manual where the oil pressure switch is up by the valve cover and how it and the top end of the motor gets it oil through that thin little steel line from the main oil gallery. Do you find that 0/30 oil is a must?, or do you think that there is something wrong with my sender? Now that i know where it is I can begin to test. (was thinking of adding a pressure guage, with a T at the sender. Thanks Ken [/QUOTE]
