Willis- do you have the duetz or yanmar engine in your FTX 90 ? I seem to remember there were some overheating issues with the duetz...

how do like it overall?

thanks

I have the second Duetz engine. When I bought the machine about 6 months ago, it had just had a new engine and new cooling package installed. As I was told, the engines was running hot and causing it to fail, but after they installed the new engines and the cooling package, it worked OK. I have run it long hot days and it doesnt even come close to running hot. This is a great machine, and I recommend it highly.
Due, to my other business growing pretty fast and needs my full attention, I will be putting the machine up for sale, in a few weeks. I run the machine myself, so its not abused. It has around 400 hrs, I think there is engine warranty, for a few more months.
Hope this answers your question

stumper120 - where are you in NH? Did you demo the new PT-100? I rented one of the earlier non-pressurized PT100s and was a little underwhelmed by the hydraulic power...
