    Case 1850k dozer won’t start with key

    I have an older case backhoe that the key switch would not trip the relay to engage the starter. I replaced the key switch and it worked again. I figured that the key swtich was worn out and not sending the proper voltage back to the relay to trip it.

    Sullair 185 Compressor engine oil overflows during use

    Exactly oil does not appear. I will check with our local fuel oil supplier to see if they can test the oil. That will tell the story. I don't see a remote oil reservoir.
