    AMMPS 1030 second unit repairs

    The other thing that comes to mind is most of us are so use to mechanical gauges that are not as precise or rather have such fine adjustment as the computer generated screens that its a bit of a technology trust/learning lesson.

    AMMPS 1030 second unit repairs

    New information for comparison. my other 1030 i ran unloaded for about 20 minutes and its Oil dropped down to about 42psi everything seems reasonable on the current unit at this point. I know older kubotas would even run on 7-10 psi so we are well in the green at this point

    AMMPS 1030 second unit repairs

    Worked on the 1030 some more. changed fuel filters and i do believe i have water in the fuel, but i am still not convinced that is the only issue. unit does not over heat or get hot real fast so i am thinking head gasket is good, oil pressure starts out at 62psi and after about 10-15 minutes of...

    INI-TS-IG1000-ICMF Crankcase full of fuel

    Run it on gasoline and you will be fine, but make sure that you have the correct orifice in the bottom of the carburetor. I will look when i get home at the manual but its the same one for high altitude.
