    Fixed 2 things last night. the parking brake handle pulled completely out last winter and the door release button popped out of the door handle around the same time. both turned out to be simple fixes. for the parking brake, disconnecting the cable at the lever by the rear axle lets the...

    the lubrication guide shows OE/HDO-10 as the lubricant for the power steering. So does that mean i should just run a 15w40 or can i run the same AW32 hydraulic fluid I'm running in the backhoe since that system also originally called out OE/HDO-10

    i had that happen a few times this winter. taking the cap off the fuel filter i could blow off the gunk/ice with carb cleaner and it would be back to full power for the rest of the job.

    We hit 25 last night and didn't get above freezing all day. This cold snap won't last but its a good reminder that WINTER IS COMING. BTW, thanks Flu Farm for suggesting that I jump the starter with a screw driver when I called you on Saturday. It started right up and later i was able to trace...

    what are everyone's thoughts on the antifreeze for the air system? at what temperature is that really needed and is it better to use it as designed or figure out a way to replace that with a dryer instead? is there a specific type of antifreeze I would need to use? I see Antifreeze...

    one of the leaks is one of the side pivot rams so that makes sense why the tank was pretty much empty. do you happen to know the fitting types and sizes so i could go pick some up? is it bad on hoe if i let all the fluid drain and leave it empty? I'm thinking about moisture getting in. this...

    thanks, i ordered the SC a few minutes ago. the second issue i have is some leaky cylinders on the backhoe. for this winter i'd like to disconnect the backhoe hoses and just use the front bucket for some snow removal. do i just disconnect the two main hoses and connect them together? Will...

    My SEE just got dropped off this morning. I know i need to replace a leaky clutch slave cylinder right away. I found the part on EI. the MC seems fine but if you guys were tackling the job, would you just replace both? the SC was leaking slowly when i first started looking at the SEE. the...
