    Can anyone help me with cat?

    Check and clean all of the fuses, my brother had all sorts of problems with a 277 which turned out to be a corroded fuse. Low voltage to the left joy stick when they hooked it up to Cats expensive computer ($750) . Use some dielectric grease when putting them back in. Steve

    S 650 Bobcat blown 100 amp fuse

    New But even at that wouldn't it have blown the glow plug fuse or burned out the relay before it went all the way back to the main fuse? Most likely and that's why it could have been a bad fuse. Steve

    S 650 Bobcat blown 100 amp fuse

    Could have just been a bad fuse, I'd run it until it does it again. A starter takes way more than 100 amps, just the solenoid circuit would be running through the fuse. Steve

    Clearing snow in the old Case 1845C

    I think chains are easier on the drive chains as there is a lot of give when the tire rolls over the links. Whats hard on the drive chain is uneven sized tires on a hard surface. Steve

    328 deere speed

    Most likely is a adjustment but if its just a little difference don't worry about it, most skid loaders are not perfect. It can change with tire size or even with the slope on the road. Steve
