hi all,
first post here.
I have a early year 843 bobcat. i have drive problems that happened all at once. I have no forward or reverse on right side and very erratic drive on left side. to me it seems like hydraulic drive pumps are not getting enough oil. I installed a gauge into the charge line and i have 200 psi going into #9 port block. but when i put a gauge into the outlet "T" that goes to the drive pumps there is no pressure.
i pulled the relief valve in the port block #8 but saw nothing wrong with it.
Can the high pressure replenishing valves #4 be the culprit? not sure what exactly they do in the hydraulic pumps. Do they control the charge pressure going to each pump? If i hold the drive lever in one direction it will jerk forward and then quit like it has no more oil.
I am stumped? I'm a mechanic by trade so I can do the work. Just trying not to have to take a trip to the Stealership.
Thanks in advance
Dan
