What's to worry about gov. rebuilds? They were either done by a couple of 20 year olds or by the lowest bidder.
Steel Soldiers now has a few new forums, read more about it at: New Munitions Forums!
Hi,
It'll be a great learning experience in the long run. Before you go and rent a cheesy Bobcat skidsteer please remember that a Multifuel weighs approx. 1,750lbs. without the tranny. Just make sure you research the lift and tipping loads of the machine your going to rent...
I noticed in your pics that there is an "engine rebuild" tag affixed to your block. That got my attention... Observation: Someone please correct me but I have observed over these past years on this forum that every catastrophic engine failure that has been shown was from an engine that had a "low mileage government rebuild" and this is yet another example.
I talked to a guy from Lima bobcat, and he said they are capable of lifting around 2500 lbs. so I am good there. And after reading this and other posts, I am glad I am ripping her down before I install her. That would suck to spend a weekend swapping motors and a week later the same thing happen I will keep you all posted on my progress, and, as always, I appreciate the advice, and help. Oh, and the fuel cutoff would not stay in the off position since the cable broke. When I pull on the lever at the pump to shut it off, it goes automatically back in. The lock is in the handle itself. (Correct me if I am wrong)
