Hello - thanks for help, noob skid steer owner. Machine has been sitting since December 2018 so just about 2 years.
New 950ca battery, removed starter and all connections, cleaned and dialectic grease, reinstalled and tractor cranks and sounds like it wants to run. Small white puffs coming out of exhaust. All filters were new right before it was left sitting, has hours 2900 and 2900 marked on the filters with date. Interestingly hydraulic fluid was in the fuel filter, I drained it and replaced with diesel as well as bled the filter head and primed it.
Inside EMU display doesn’t count off the seconds to start. It either says check codes, 920.05 is the first one alarm low (buzzer was removed) and the other one is for the horn button as it’s missing on the joystick. Not sure if these tractors run with codes but a couple of times it didn’t read any. I’ve also removed all the fuses, cleaned and reinstalled as well as the relays with dielectric grease.
I should mention that the tank appears to have a crack near the bottom as it only holds a few gallons before leaking so I am using an aux plastic fuel tank with the suction and return lines going into it. Trying to start so I can raise the boom arms and get the tank out, any ideas on doing that easily with engine off I’m all ears, it’s parked under a hoist.
The EMU the readout was between 15-20psi fuel pressure measured although I didn’t watch it while cranking. Otherwise the Display just shows hours with an hour glass, I don’t get any countdown to start. It’s about 80degrees here btw.
Air filter is clean, perhaps I need to inspect the intake loop and see if some wasps/Dobers got in there
Appreciate any help on what to try next!
