Hello all,
I wanted to ask whether anyone else has a cat 257b (or similar) that is hard starting. Pre-heater helps a lot to get it going. The other day it was in the shop nice and warm. I cranked it and it wouldn't start. Finally ran the preheater for a couple seconds and it fired right up.
The machine has 360 hrs on it.
Explain?
