I picked one up recently. No oil in the crankcase. I added oil and a new filter. Results-
Oil pressure starts at 25psi and drops to near nothing as soon as the oil starts getting warm.
Bogs down as soon as load applied. Rpm drops and so does voltage and oil pressure.
I'm thinking bearings for sure, and if I'm pulling the engine I may as well do the full rebuild.
Where's the best place to get a rebuild kit?
Exactly which Perkins engine is used in these?
Comments on my diagnoses?
