    JCB Instrument cluster does not work.

    Same problem for me! I have installed an extra temperature gauge which is easy to fit. Be careful of the throttle, because we used to work around 1500 rpm but after the dash stopped to work the throttle is always full which means 2200 - 2500 rpm!

    955l water in oil

    There is also a possibility of a damaged oil cooler which is cooled by water and if it is cracked then oil is contaminated by water. Personally, I preferred to replace it by an aftermarket.

    Fuel contamination on Oil Analysis

    In my opinion the first think you have to check is injection system and valves clearance.

    977l brake adjust

    Here are some fotos of my 955 which, i think, is similar machine to 977. You have to remove the covers and tighten the brake in order to have the same breaking attempt for each pedal. I hope that helped!

    Bobcat oil

    I use the Bobcat hydraulic because it can be used from -35 C degrees up to +40 C and we have a big issue here in my town with low temperatures in winter and high in summer. Furthermore it's got a good price, it costs about 6 euros at a litre. I hope that helps!
