    bobcat s175 wont start

    Today was about 19F out so I went out to see if the bobcat would start. It did start with no prob. I think my prob could have been a conection at the relay or it could have been the relay it self. I switched the relays around don't remember witch one was orig was in the fuel spot. Today the...

    bobcat s175 wont start

    I also noticed that it looked like water got into the fuses and relays. I cleaned the conections on the relays and fuses this could have also been the prob with the fuel solenoid and also for the parking brake solenoid. I will have to keep trying to start the bobcat when it gets cold here again...

    Bobcat s175 lift problem

    The valve I took out had a alluminum nut at the end then the part that had the wires coming off it slid off then a deep 19mm socket took the valve out. I don't know if it had anything to do with the problem I'm having or not. I just saw that there was a very small leak. It seems that the machine...
