    question on fuel capacity 743

    I did replace the fuel lines about a year ago. I'm not sure how to see inside the tank to tell if the sender is rubbing on the side. when it's full to overflowing they gauge says quarter tank. but the strange part is from full to empty is only about 6 gallons or so. also when so-called empty -...

    question on fuel capacity 743

    I understood that the 743 fuel tank was 13 gallons. this is my gas gauge about a 4 ft broom handle . the black mark is where it ran out of gas and the white Mark is where it overflowed after about 5 plus gallons maybe six. any words of wisdom?

    rear view mirror genius idea

    in case no one else is smart enough to figure out how to do this I wanted to share this genius idea of bolting a rear view mirror to the cage of a bobcat. I would do a YouTube video to show how to do it and the results of it but I think it's pretty obvious from these pictures LOL. before and...

    grease fitting stuck

    I took the lock bolt out and then realized I should have marked the position first . wasn't able to move it very far cuz there's only like a 16th of an inch chamfer to try to get a channel lock on to twist it - unless I tap it out a little bit so I have something to grab on but then I don't want...

    rear view mirrors?

    anyone found a good solution for mirrors on a bobcat ?(743) I need something so I can see what I'm backing into and crushing and also some convects down on the bucket so I can see what's happening at the leading edge after I tilt it down. frustrating working in tight spaces with no spotter.

    curious about these sounds 743

    wow I guess I forgot to reply to this thread back then. thanks Dave I think that's the ticket if I give it enough throttle the engines a lot louder but the squeal is gone. Guess I should just go find some earplugs lol

    grease fitting stuck

    quick follow up I haven't tried to rotate the pin yet but I did put down pressure on the bucket and was able to tap the pin back and forth a fraction of an inch with a little Hammer. tried to grease again and it did take this time but it's only squirting out a little stream on the right side...

    grease fitting stuck

    743 only one fitting that won't take grease the left rear upper lift bar pivot won't take grease removed zerk and it's fine do i have to take that pivot pin out to clean? if i remove pivot pin will that arm fall down, so i would have to prop it up w something to maintain alignment?
