I have a 2009 CAT 262C Skidsteer. It runs fine in the winter, but when the summer comes around, It runs fine for about 2 hours (depending on how hot the weather is) before it starts to misfire and occasionally cough up some white smoke, will no longer rev up, and loses all hydraulic power - this eventually leads to it quitting until it has cooled down again. I have replaced the fuel pump, and the fuel filter, and the air filters are brand new. I ran the fuel delivery pump to test the lines, and all of the fuel lines are clear, and I bled out the air all the way to the injector lines. All fluids are new, clean and topped up. Has anyone else had this issue, or have any idea what it might be caused by? The troubleshooting section in my CAT manual is not giving me any new leads. None of the diagnostic codes have anything to do with the fuel system, and I am getting frustrated with how often the machine has to sit and cool down...
