No I would produce it. Just looking to see if there is interest in such an upgrade. Going to cost a couple grand up front in this day and age to make any quantity. Especially with what is going on in the world, I'm not entirely sure parts availability will improve in the short to mid term on a...

So being that this fitting is manufactured in brass (which contains about a third of zinc), there are long term concerns with modern fuel creating 'insoluble fuel gels or salts' due to chemical reactions. I've been looking into this, and Parker has done a nice writeup on this...

Sometimes machines are just needed for parts, and no other reason. The engine and genhead went to another SS user... I've used up a number of the panels repairing other machines, and I've got a whole range of control cube components now on the shelf to be tested for future use.

The quick hitch came from here: https://www.palletforks.com/tractors/3-point/hitches/quick-hitch/titan-category-1-and-2-3-point-quick-hitch/QH1-GROUP.html) The weights and heavy hitch from here...

I wouldn't mess with the droop setting unless the hertz are hunting. As Jimmy said, springs do sometimes elongate. Don't be afraid to make some small adjustments to the stop settings, to see if you can adjust back into range.

I was waiting months for a smaller L (3901) to come in to stock, and my local dealer called me and informed me that a cash buyer had backed out and that this Grand L base model was available... I had no idea they had this particular model in the lineup. The price was right, and so was the...

Put some work in this morning putting some rodent mesh on the underside on an 802 headed to a fellow SS member.

I picked up a Kubota L3560 this past year, and its a real nice tractor. It has the bigger frame and running gear of the Grand L family, but 35HP and a great all around performer. Its a great compromise to me... larger, heavier footprint, with better fuel economy. I don't do a ton of ground...

Have you ever seen this load work properly, or did you just acquire it? Rebuilt or not... those mufflers are often caked with crap from improper use. I would put a can of seafoam in the tank and put small amounts of load on the machine over a few hours, to see if you can get it up and moving in...

I have not used this particular filter, but I was told this might be a good cross to the Airtex https://ph.baldwinfilters.com/baldwin/en/baldwin-in-line-fuel-filters/bf46008

Airtex G17 is the OEM... think its discontinued

Yes undo it at the filter (leave the filter on the pump) it goes back into the tank and a dip stick down into the fuel.

Have you checked the feed line from the primary pump? You may be fighting a blockage which reduces flow.. if you have any buildup, it could restrict the pickup tube and the feed line. Only reason I mention this is I was fighting with an 802 at cold temps this week, only to find this very issue...

No it was reading 3PH

That's a real nice setup! I got to finally put the Essex onto a machine for some light testing yesterday in 3PH mode:

I've had to use nonstandard coolant temp gauges that aren't matched perfectly with the OEM sender... they will read about 200, when I know the system is actually running at 180.

They should open at 180F. With that said, as they rely on tempered metals to move, there can be some variation. Are you experiencing an issue with a machine?

I think you probably got lucky. With that said, perhaps you were on the lucky side of https://steelsoldiers.com/threads/availability-of-tqgs.207531/. If it runs, and makes power... well you are already more than halfway there!

When you replace the sender, its a great time to consider adding a manual oil pressure gauge at the T right there. Its been covered in the forum before (I've actually done it to my personal machine, a nice bit of 'extra' piece of mind for me).

The sender is for the gauge. The oil pressure switch would be what talks to the fault panel.
