    Volvo L50D sluggish ??

    If it has an inline pump -Blocked banjo bolts, dirt in or broken lift pump valves or spring, primer or glass bowel drawing air or back pressure valve broken. When you prime it you should get steady resistance and a squeeking sound after the first few pumps.

    What steel to use for bucket pins?

    If it is for a pin grabber, I can not see the need for any hardening or precision fitting. I just go to my local machine shop and get bar stock. I do not ask the grade but it deffinitly aint hardened. Never broke or bent one .It is better than mild steel but if the coupler and bucket are a good...

    Volvo L90F aftermarket plumbing for a quick coupler

    A third valve might be much better value for money if you had use for it. Older volvos just had quick couplers plugged into the third service. You just let them plugged in unless u are using the third service.

    Volvo L90F aftermarket plumbing for a quick coupler

    The H had nothing for the Q C or third service so I plumbed and wired it from scratch for around 300 euro plus time. That was 2 years ago. Everything has gazumped in price since. The E had a wired valve piped down to the boom crossmember and blanked there. Cant remember if it had the switch or...

    Pin bore interference fits

    I decided against such a tight fit as the original was more likely a slop fit . Stuck it in the freezer and pulled it in with M30 all thread with good steady resistance.

    Volvo L90F aftermarket plumbing for a quick coupler

    Bought a S/H L90e and it had the valve and I think was wired but had no switch or QC. Plumbed a H with a rexroth valve similar to what volvo use but way cheaper.

    Pin bore interference fits

    Ice cream and AI are out of season unfortunately. A tank of cold stuff would be very handy but I wouldnt use it often enough. The domestic freezer wont do much but every little helps (I think). Thanks for the chart. I will post a pic if it gets stuck and I have to gas it out.

    Early volvo L70 tranny issue

    You can bypass the transmission ecu by swapping a plug on the electric panel. If fuse issue is in ecu you should be able to work without it. If not , i would hope the bypass circuit is fuse protected and that one may blow.

    Hydraulic hose repair or replace

    What condition is the rest of the hose in? Is it gone hard/stiff or perished? Do u use the machine much? Apart from the oil cost would a major leek cause big problems? I like Delmers fix and it could go along way . if u are clocking up hours the oem hose is not very expensive and agree with Nige...
