Need some advice please! Got my gen set home and oiled and fueled it. It cranked up and ran great for about 20 second, then slowly lost rpm and just chugged and then died. There was air at the fuel filter drains of the last two filters, and a pretty good oil leak coming faround the bolt head of...

Thanks for hanging in there. I will take some pics of my trucks underside. Are they fairly easy to post? I know there is a hydraulic tank hanging on the side of the truck now. I am starting to grasp the theory and difference between pump and motor. Your saying that the "thing" that...
M16TY:
i am still trying to get this into my engineer (electrical - obviously not mechanical) brain - so bear with me:
Maybe we are interchanging hydraulic pump and hydraulic motor terms. I crawled under my 923 and followed the "Winch In and Out" cable to a hydraulic "something" that had a...

I haven't got that deep yet. It would dawn on me eventually. That's why I started...
Bear with me Derrick - as i know you feel like your talking to your 10yr old - i appreciate the patience.
How do I post a pic of the old winch on here - ****, maybe it won't work.
i still don't understand the logic of putting a hydraulic motor on the winch - yet - but keep pounding it into my...

I thought I could just drive the old winch with a shaft coupled to the hydraulic pump that I located underneath the 923. The winch doesn't care what's turning the shaft right?
I need to determine if my truck...
Could you guys tell me what all modifications need/have to be made to add a winch to a truck that is W/OW. My 1983 923 has the controls in the cab, and the winch in and out has a cable attached to it and I found a hydraulic pump with a smooth shaft coming out of it. Not sure about the PTO...
