ok dad got the engine out & turned around. Nothing... removed it again & put it in the original position - seems to be running well. Now he has to get throttle and a couple other things worked out to control them from the cab. Not pretty but it works & thats all that really matters ;) Thanks for...

Thanks for the info Sir. Tracking down these parts is like looking for a needle in a haystack.

OK guy's, we hit a major turning point today........... The engine turns one way & the pump turns the other way. so it look's like were gonna have to break the welds loose and find another engine that rotates in the correct direction. weve been running the pump backwards all this time from the...

Good info Tazza, we just opened up the two valves that allow the mover to be towed(puts it in natural) and it seems to be doing better but still not there yet.

Thank you foryour help & ideas Ken. like I said, we need all we can get!! Im gonna track down some of the lines today and see if I can find where the pressure valve may be. Thanks Sir.

we figured that was gonna have to happen sooner than later. I think hes dreading that and trying to avoid it. he seems to think its just something stuck like a valve or the like.

He got it to move some today, not much but more than usual. lifted the bucket all the way then let it drop. that seemed to blow things out a little and caused it to move again but still at a turtles pace. The right side wants to go but the left wheels usually wont move much at all. he's gonna...

I doubt it could lift anything but then again the bucket does stay up when its it raised. from what little I know I would say you are right about the pump. would that also affect foward and reverse movement of the machine, as in no movenent other than a spin every now and then. Thanks Sir

ok, hes gonna try to do the pressure test but there is not a quick hookup on the machine. the lines run to the rear for the aux peddle but I need to get a better look at where they actully go back there. ok the middle peddle seems to control the bucket tilt but when he pushes it in the motor...

@ Tazza Thanks, hes working on it now so I'll pass the info along to him now. Yes Sir, that is the aux as far as I can tell.

Thank you very much Sir, glad to be aboard!

Hi Sir, I don't think It's foamy or getting hot. really not that skilled in this field so your ideas will be very welcome. me and my dad think it may be a blockage in the hydraulic's - just don't know where. I'll look into the pressure readings for sure and if I can I'll post the info asap...

My dad picked up a prime mover l1300 without an engine, I think the original engine was a 4 cilinder diesel - maybe 3 cilinder. he found the original engine, but the shaft is broken so he has mounted a gas 4 cilinder to the mover. the problem now is it wont move(some times it will run a little...
