    Deere 200CLC Rotary Manifold R/R

    All of them are o ring face. Even the smaller lines. A straight 200c has tons of room. You can remove the boom cylinder hoses and work it from there. 1 7/16" works but shes a tad bit loose if you cant find a metric.

    Komatsu PC 300-8 Govenor control problem

    Im not a 100% sure on the PC300-7 but i know the 200-7 have a strut type of cylinder in between the linkages. Usually ends up failing and causing a hunting issue at the high end of engine rpm. You can easily spot this by simply grabing the cylinder and checking for any lash. Change out that...

    Swivel joint. Pull off the case drain and see what your getting. Im taking a stab in the dark....but anytime i run across travel issues i usually start at the swivel.

    Electrical problems on case 450 uniloader

    Try bumping the starter solenoid with a jumper wire while the key switch is in on position. You should check if you have power out while your holding the key in the start position. Not quite sure which post it would be but a test light will do the trick. If you have power in but nothing out...
