Well, I replaced all my filters (air, fuel oil) and I seem to still have the same problem on my 96 Hyundai 130 LC-3. After working the machine for 3-4 hours, the engine rpms start to drop when putting a load on the hydraulics. It would start to drop by 2-300 then 4-500 rpm. It seems to run fine when cold. I noticed it start happening again today while digging in a pile of dirt. I released the controls thinking the rpms would come back up but the engine died. Took a lot of cranking to start back up (i didnt want to leave the boom in the air).
Ive read the "hitachi 120 problem" post and Im thinking this may still be a fuel issue. At least I hope its a fuel problem and not a lack of compression or engine related issue.
