    Cat drive issues

    Yes they do take trade ins, but keep in mind that they will have a tech look over everything on the machine, and will deduct any major issues from the trade in value, but, yes sometimes it will be more cost effective to just replace the one drive motor that has failed instead of both. Hope this...

    Cat 299d2 3516-18 ACU Catalyst Reagent Concentration Low

    Yes its possible, I work in the compact construction equipment department, so maybe CAT does call it something else for the bigger equipment.

    Cat 299d2 3516-18 ACU Catalyst Reagent Concentration Low

    Wow, orange soda? cant believe the guys would do that to the def system. Sometimes I cant tell if the operators are not wanting to work, or if they are clueless or perhaps it was a hate crime, but we got a machine that the def tank was completely full of hydraulic oil. looked liked the Chinese...

    Cat 299d2 3516-18 ACU Catalyst Reagent Concentration Low

    CAT calls it a DEF manifold. And yes they are prone to fail, but it is covered under the emissions warranty, but they are cat backorderd.

    Cat drive issues

    I got a machine in the shop two months ago with a similar issue regarding the rabbit mode/second speed, that when activated would pull to the right and when deactivated would pull to the left. But the skid steer had an issue because there was brass in the system. Have you checked your hydraulic...

    Cat 246B Hydraulic Leak! Where is it comming from?

    DONT WANT TO BE THAT GUY TO STATE THE OBVIOUS, BUT, WHENEVER YOU CANT FIND A LEAK, MAKE SURE TO POWERWASH THE AREA WHERE THE LEAK MIGHT BE COMING FROM. AND BRAKE CLEAN IS YOURE BEST FRIEND WHEN LOOKING FOR A LEAK. AND ALL SKID STEERS HAVE REMOVABLE BELLY PANS.

    Cat 2004 236 skid steer

    TRANSFER PUMP IS MECHANICAL, HOW HAVE YOU BEEN PRIMING IT? IF YOU DIDNT FILL UP THE FUEL FILTER WITH DIESEL ID DO THAT FIRST. ALSO TRY TO OPEN UP THE FUEL LINES RIGHT BEFORE THE INJECTORS AND SEE IF AIR BUBLLES COME OUT. WRENCH SIZE SHOULD BE A 14 MM.
