    Cat C7 No Go--Flat won't run--Help troubleshooting please

    We found that the timing gear on the cam shaft had been pushed partially off. We think maybe during the installation of the truck air compressor the gears weren't aligned and this aided in pushing the gear out of position.

    Update if it matters. The engine is a 1998 3126B rather than a C7.

    Cat C7 No Go--Flat won't run--Help troubleshooting please

    We replaced the harness. That was our first thought. After that, all parts were at the troubleshooting and recommendation of CAT tech. I hope that's not considered shotgunning parts. I agree on the ether. That just means it's getting air. Cranking oil pressure is like 1200 or something...

    Cat C7 No Go--Flat won't run--Help troubleshooting please

    Serial number 7AS07315 arrangement number 154-1062. The truck broke down on the side of the road and we replaced a timing sensor and were back up and running. Two weeks later it died on a job. We have spent 40 hours on it and T&E Cat has spent 40 hours on it. We replaced the lift/transfer pump...

    2008 EC-140BLC Fault 140 SID 230 9

    Forget that I asked. The harness had become completely disconnected from one of the ECM's. Not sure which one.

    2008 EC-140BLC Fault 140 SID 230 9

    The fault code appeared and the machine was stuck in high idle. After turning the machine on and then off again the machine is now stuck in low idle. Can anyone help? I see a lof of fault codes that are almost the same but the "140" part is usually a different number. Thanks. SN 117xx

    Hydraulic Pump Cross Reference

    Wouldn't it be handy though to have a reference on a board like this for everyone though? Here is what I've come up with so far: SNs PIN: 1FF470GX_ _E470001- --Pump PN FYA00035147 FYA00052949 4699645 PG202165 H5V200DPH (yes its a Kawasaki pump!!!)

    Hydraulic Pump Cross Reference

    Yes, there is and it matches one of the part numbers I listed but that's just the Deere number. It doesn't' answer the cross-reference question.

    Hydraulic Pump Cross Reference

    Does anyone know of a source that could provide insight into which pump is in which excavator? I am currently working with a JD 470GLC and there appear to be many pump options: (not the serial number range I am working with) SNs PIN: 1FF470GX_ _C047001- --Pump PN 9184686EX (I am working with...

    Deere GLC Series Excavator Door Latch--Repair Help

    I do mean the cable assembly. The parts diagram shows clips that hold the cable assembly in place within the door. I assumed I would need to reattach those.

    Deere GLC Series Excavator Door Latch--Repair Help

    We have a JD 470GLC and the latch that holds the door open broke. I was able to purchase the parts but our repair manual does not show us how to install the latch. It appears that the door is a sealed unit and we cannot access the cable to replace it without cutting open the door with a torch...

    2002 Cat 246 questions

    This is getting more in-depth than my knowledge or data from our in house mechanic. If we could ignore the potential to rebuild the engine I'd like to focus on if $9,000 is really what I should expect to pay on a reman or if there are other engine options that essentially fit in this machine.

    2002 Cat 246 questions

    This gets into a bit more detail than I know. They say it turns by hand very nicely but when assembled and operated it has a horrible clatter. I believe the engine was then disassembled and on closer inspection, the "walking" was discovered. Not being much of a mechanic "main bearing" was...
