    2019 Bobcat T585 fuel starvation

    If Gauge shows empty but still has fuel the it would be the electronic float assembly part # 37 that is sticking or not reponding, i have had mine fail and once i removed the old one i looked at it and it was not registering properly. I cleaned it with alcohol and reinstalled it and it works...

    Cat 299D2 stereo wire identification

    It could be a wire going to an RCA headphone jack remotely located? Just a thought. Usually RCA wires are wires within a wire or Coax.

    Case430 fuel gauge/sending unit issues

After replacing the original one it happened again so i took it out and cleaned the "ROD" (for lack of a better word) that...

    2022 Case TV370B top tilt cylinder pin grease

    My understanding is that the upper pins are a not needing grease and this was done to prevent the operator from rubbing up against them entering and leaving the cab and getting grease on themselves. that's what i was told from the dealer years back.

    259E FRONT DOOR

    You may need a jumper plug for the wiring, the newer unit Sr series have a plug that gets disconnected and a jumper the plugs in to end to bypass the door safeties that are in place so as the unit cannot move with the door open.

    Rebuild #2 Has Started Case 1845c

    Looks good, you will have a his and hers once you're done. Does the better half know how to operate the skid steer? My wife has been hounding me since we bought ours and i still haven't taught her, maybe I'm scared of Job Security?
