    D4H old problems dished off on newbe owner (me)

    Wore azz out UC coming back to haunt me. Chains jumping sprockets. Pushing straight on level ground i would hear a disconcerting "pop" every now and then mostly from left side. But clearing saplings and 6-8in trees off a stock pond berm while turning, slipping gets way worse. i even hear the...

    1987 D4H series II gauges mechanical or Electronic..dead either way

    Warning lights and fault light with beeper works, but gauges are dead. Got a few questions before i tear into the dash panel. Are gauges and lights all 24v. or 12v. (yes its 24v. system) I have no wiring diagram for this to go by. Horn fuse is missing, does this circuit maybe provide power...

    Cat D3B 3204 governor/injection pump

    i just reinstalled a injector pump on my D4H 3204 engine. Before i removed it, i pinned the flywheel while also pinning the injector pump. This way when both were lined up and pinned i knew that the pre pinned(timed) rebuilt pump would be aligned when reinstalled. As far as removing the pump...

    Always wanted a dozer!

    I hear ya. Been there, doing that now. I always wanted a full-size Tonka toy to play in the growed up with trees/brush sandbox. Bought a dozer that was 3/4 wore out. Been wrenching on it since. I could had farmed out the clearing work and come out cheaper. I'm no mechanic but if i keep this...

    well after hours of cussing, banging and scraping knuckles searching for the right sockets, rachets, extensions, plus box end angled, straight wrenches....I finally got this damn Injector pump off.

    D4H remove injector pump advice on breaking loose front gear.

    yes that was the first thing i checked. Ran for 30-45 sec with valve cover off visually seen no leaks. Thats when i moved to transfer/lift pump. Had it checked out and found it was leaking so i replaced it. Changed oil and used it on an off for a few hours...noticed oil level was again rising...

    743B Bobcat skidsteer

    when my fluid got low (damn leak) this 743 squealed like a pig, herky jerky boom and bucket...but it still drove fine. after adding oil it took a few days to get the foamed air bubbles out of the system. However like i said...it seemed to drive fine.

    New project for my D4H

    New project for my D4H

    Explain magnetic and arc blow out? because a 2-3 times i experienced weird bright ass flashes (way brighter than the normal arc) it was like someone lit a sparkler up and practically blinded me. I only noticed it in two sections and when i was building up welds for filling in shoddy gaps...

    New project for my D4H

    Finished. sanded primed and slapped some cat yellow on it. I forgot how much i hate welding rusty drill pipe with gaps to fill. Next im looking at fixing the dented deformed steel around the radiator. I know its just superficial...but i eyes always pick this out. Basically its fixing the...
