    Cat 316e no hydraulics

    My “mechanic” decided to pull the fuse and put in the fuel pump but didn’t replace it. So the fuse was simply missing.

    Cat 316e no hydraulics

    Well sometimes the solution isn’t too bad. Found a bad fuel pump thanks to a blown fuse. Traced my problem Back to the hydraulic lockout solenoid thanks to help from Nige. I swapped it with another solenoid and the machine moved just like normal. Thanks for the help guys keep at it.

    Cat 316e no hydraulics

    So I’m deep diving on the web as much as possible. Pilot pump failure and pilot solenoid failure are solely hydraulic issues. My issue seems to be electrical since I have no read outs on certain items and the dead give away to me was the horn not working. Long day ahead of me tomorrow before I...

    Day cab with tag trailer

    I figured with the Tri axle trailer I should be able to balance the load pretty well. I would never buy a single axle tractor it would be a tandem axle truck with Tri axle trailer. borrowed a friends tractor to take the 14 hour round trip took a picture at the shop when I got back

    Day cab with tag trailer

    I’ve been kicking around the idea of a cheap day cab tractor with big hp to tow my tag trailer rather than the tandem. The tandem weighs 31k empty so it’s a bit slow with the added weight of the trailer and machines. Any thoughts against the tractor with a pintle? And no I don’t want a low boy...

    Cat 312 squeaking while turning

    My 2011 cat 312dl is squealing while it turns on the turn table. Not sure what to make of it. Would do it occasionally on a slope but now does it all the time. Checked oil level in the house it’s clean and correct. Greased the turntable. Not sure what it is. Thanks

    Cat 312 extra counter weight

    Standard 36” bucket nothing crazy I think it’s just the combination of the long stick and coupler honestly. Had plans for a thumb but it would only make things worse
