Does anyone know where to find the ambient temperature sensor / or have a better theory on why the starter relay is not energizing the ignition switch? (no it is not related to the clutch switch) I have been working my way through the wiring issues. Fortunately I have not found any rodent...

On a lighter note, I was wondering if any of your 419s have honorable war wounds (rat attacks don't count). I thought initially that mine may have taken a 50 cal in the bucket, but on closer inspection I decided it was some other violent encounter.

Thanks peakbagger, It looks like he has a lot of good parts, which makes it a good resource. The shipping does not look crazy expensive. He does not mention the 419, but like you said several of the parts look compatible. If anyone orders the dust cover, let me know if it works. The...

Thank you Migginsbros. Happy Easter. Your pictures and the dimensions are very helpful. The third picture answers a question I had about which position to attach on the drivers side. Currently I am attached in the middle position, but I think changing that will not resolve my basic problem. The...

Just to pile on, I got that spring through core parts https://corepartsmb.com it cost me $5.00 + shipping. just search on A4259930110 If the lube and spring don't do the trick, there is some adjustment on the hand throttle, The spring we are talking about is (6). The manual does not say...

MigginsBros, Thank you. Your picture is worth 1000 words. It shows clearly what I had suspected. The lever for the throttle goes a lot further toward the back of the vehicle than mine does. I would bet a large sum that if you push the accelerator pedal all the way to the floor the spring never...

I checked the accelerator pedal and it sticks wide open, and the hand throttle doesn't bring it back. I think am going to need to do more than just be able to pull it back when it sticks. I think I will still follow Pinsandpitons suggestion as an emergency remedy, but it would be too easy getit...

Thanks for the tip, that seems like a good solution. Maybe some piano wire or something like that. Thin and strong, that's not going to impact normal function with the added advantage of being able to pull it back if need be in an emergency. I haven't tried to floor it with the pedal to see if...

Accelerator Linkage Adjustment Has anyone had a problem with a runaway throttle on the SEE? Last year I manufactured a throttle connecting rod because mine was so badly bent that I was afraid it's strength was compromised after I straightened it back out. I found the hand throttle also badly...

Hi Skywagon, To get some meaningful help you probably need to provide more details, I likely can't help but it would be the starting point for someone who might be able to. First off what do you mean when you say stuck in low range on the gear box shifter? Here is a diagram for the shift...

The covers were on when I got it, but who knows. The dobbers certainly plugged up 2 of the 7 brake bleeder valves. I will check to make sure the air flows through. Different topic, is there any use for the dipper rod I replaced? Boat anchor comes to mind, but if it has some value I would...

Before I put the seal kits into my boom cylinders it just worked. I would bring it up and as soon as it started to slow down I would just reverse direction and it would move in position. Now it seems to stop moving toward me sooner than it did before, and reversing direction just sends it back...

Well Like I said before, since my SEE is the only SEE I have seen I can only guess by the pictures in the TMs and what I see on my SEE so to speak. Enough double talk. When I look at the connections to the front glad hands it looks exactly like the diagram above. The lines from both glad...

I replaced the seals on my boom cylinders and now I can't get the boom to latch using the last second direction reversal to get it over center. I was able to get it to latch using the stabilizer pushing on the bucket, but I am not even close with the correct technique. Any ideas as to what...

I got the seals replaced in the two boom cylinders and replaced the rod and seals on the bucket cylinder. It was not such a bad job, the hardest part was just wrangling the cylinders around by myself. They are pretty heavy and breaking the piston bolts loose took some doing. 600 ft-lbs spec and...

I just stumbled on this article, nothing new, but you may find it helpful. It is for a Case 580 back hoe so pretty relevant. https://axleaddict.com/commercial-vehicles/How-To-Rebuild-Or-Repair-Tractor-Backhoe-Hydraulic-Cylinders

Over the weekend I got the bucket cylinder off and the gland nut removed. Do your self a favor and make sure you remove the 1/8" locking screw before you put any pressure on it. Mine was under the cylinder and I did not find it until it was too late. The head of the screw snapped off, I had to...

I would rather not have used the JB Weld. The problem was the fit of the boots. For sure the drag link would not work with out the JB Weld, and it worked well with it. The ideal would have been a base of about 50 mm that would have fit inside the cup ring but I used what I was available. The JB...

This may be a case of the blind leading the blind, but I am currently in the process of replacing the bucket rod, and the seals on the right boom cylinder. I have been breaking the gland nut free while the cylinder is still attached. You might want to get a big spanner wrench. Here is the link...

In case you missed the new thread, I posted about adding dust covers on to my ball joints here. https://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?187040-After-market-dust-covers-and-grease-zerks-on-Drag-Link-and-Tie-Rod-ball-joints&p=2203747&viewfull=1#post2203747
