    M35a3 3116 Cat looses power at times

    If it increases, then Id replace the fuel filter first, that way you have to bleed the fuel system and have fresh filters. My Cat dozer did the same thing a few months ago and that took care if it.

    M817 Start Problems - Need Help

    before you installed it, you should have tested it on the floor with a battery and jumper cables to make sure it spins AND the bendix gear slides forward and spins also. even a 12vdc battery will do it at a slower speed.
