    Excavator cab compatibility question

    Thanks guys, pretty much what I had come up with but was unable to confirm. A whole lot easier to find a cab in descent shape when looking at all daewoo machines from the early 90's. Vs just the 130. I'm sure if there are minor differences it will be easier to rectify those than un-crispify the...

    Excavator cab compatibility question

    Hey folks, I'm looking at an early 90's Daewoo 130-3 that had a cab fire. Seems to me that a bunch of daewoo and possibly other models from that time frame should share a common cab. Doesn't really seem to matter the machine size, the cab is always about the same. Wouldn't expect them to have...

    Early volvo L70 tranny issue

    I was thinking of that recently whilst out driving from point A to point B for work.....had a couple hours of thinking time that day. But wouldn't that make the damn thing want to move once i did start it?? Would certainly keep it from starting normally. I mean unless its getting conflicting...

    Early volvo L70 tranny issue

    My first thought was that maybe they didn't bolt the torque to the flywheel completely and i sheared whatever was actually bolted with that first push. Then i thought some more and concluded that couldn't be the case since the hydraulics all work like normal with full pressure. If the flywheel...

    Early volvo L70 tranny issue

    I wasn't there for the actual engine install but this engine is coupled with that tranny in the later L70 models. Was told it bolted right up. No idea on pressures, ran it as short a time as possible getting it out of the way and really haven't messed with it since. Should look up where the test...

    Early volvo L70 tranny issue

    Sounds like a good place to start just odd for them to both crap out at the same time. Or maybe one crapped out and is canceling out the other?? not sure how the machine would handle conflicting inputs.

    Early volvo L70 tranny issue

    Its entirely possible it won't and the master caution just happened to come on at the same time. I had noticed some insulation at the shift solenoids that looked a bit weather checked. Was seriously hoping to avoid a major rewire but if need be...

    Early volvo L70 tranny issue

    Ok guys, heres another issue i need a little help with. I bought this very well used L70 from a friend whom had it and knew its history very very well before he got it. Machine spent its entire life pushing cardboard around a recycling plant. LOTS of hours (36K i think) but not a lot of hard...

    Detroit diesel 6V92TA injector timing

    Yeah i know, great at turning diesel into noise and leaks. Old gal runs pretty well though, fires right off even cold. Damn near no smoke if its anything over 45 degrees out right from start up. If its colder than about that 45 or so she smokes a bit on one cylinder, the one that had the exhaust...

    Detroit diesel 6V92TA injector timing

    Yeah, very very little of the data plate from the valve cover remains unfortunately, can read the injector spec and not much else. The whole thing is obviously kinda oily but not that one spot, dry and flaky
