I have a 2009 CAT 262C Skidsteer. It runs fine in the winter, but when the summer comes around, It runs fine for about 2 hours (depending on how hot the weather is) before it starts to misfire and occasionally cough up some white smoke, will no longer rev up, and loses all hydraulic power - this eventually leads to it quitting until it has cooled down again. I have replaced the fuel pump, and the fuel filter, and the air filters are brand new. I ran the fuel delivery pump to test the lines, and all of the fuel lines are clear, and I bled out the air all the way to the injector lines. All fluids are new, clean and topped up. Has anyone else had this issue, or have any idea what it might be caused by? The troubleshooting section in my CAT manual is not giving me any new leads. None of the diagnostic codes have anything to do with the fuel system, and I am getting frustrated with how often the machine has to sit and cool down... ]]> Skid Steers Gillian R http://www.heavyequipmentforums.com/showthread.php?36187-262C-Skidsteer-misfiring-and-quitting-when-warm A wild ride with Cat E series Excavator!!!! http://www.heavyequipmentforums.com/showthread.php?36186-A-wild-ride-with-Cat-E-series-Excavator!!!!&goto=newpost Fri, 24 May 2013 19:14:37 GMT :eek:Here is a link to pic on a Cat E series excavator with operator going for a wild ride!!! http://www.theconstructionindex.co.uk/the-digger-blog/view/cat-e-series-excavator-goes-down-for-an-extreme-job :jawdrop:jawdrop:jawdrop Thanks! :eek:Here is a link to pic on a Cat E series excavator with operator going for a wild ride!!! http://www.theconstructionindex.co.u...an-extreme-job :jawdrop:jawdrop:jawdrop Thanks! ]]> Excavators cat3208 http://www.heavyequipmentforums.com/showthread.php?36186-A-wild-ride-with-Cat-E-series-Excavator!!!!

A senior expert injector dude tells me. (Working on a CAV pump)
The pump gets lubricated ONLY by the diesel fuel and this does not have the best lubricants in it currently.
From the pumps prospective here is the best advice.

"For a 5 gallon can of diesel fuel, add about 2 or 3 cap-fulls of the cheapest ATF transmission fluid you can buy into the tank."

He says this lubricates the internal parts of the pump and will even make it run quieter.
No black smoke (unless you add way too much) and will not harm the injectors nor the engine.

I somehow wonder if this is maybe a controversial idea.
He does not necessarily oppose additives, but says they are no better than a small amount of ATF fluid.
He says this will make the pump last forever and minimize leaks.

He also says a gallon of Kerosene in a tank of fuel will clean the entire fuel system including the injectors.:eek: ]]> Tractor/Loader/Backhoes bowen http://www.heavyequipmentforums.com/showthread.php?36177-ATF-Fluid-added-to-the-fuel-tank Cat 312B part numbers http://www.heavyequipmentforums.com/showthread.php?36176-Cat-312B-part-numbers&goto=newpost Fri, 24 May 2013 09:52:43 GMT Hi all............I have a Cat 312B 1998 s/n 9hr02634 on an island in the Bahamas..........I have just been out for a week from the UK to work this machine and have come back with a couple of issues...........the first is with the hydraulic radiator, this seems to have sprung a leak, thus blowing...
