    JCB Midi CX 3pt Linkage

    Does anyone know if a universal 3pt linkage kit I can purchase or used linkage set for my JCB Midi CX. Im looking to get a wood chipper and looks like rear mount PTO will give me the most power and function. I have a backhoe now so I need the 3pt kit to mount. From JCB is $3k plus which is nuts.

    JCB Midi CX

    Would it be considered normal if you were to drive up to an immovable object ( tree) throttle up and tires spin in dirt. Then let off do it again and after 2nd or 3rd time tires won’t spin and act like a clutch is glazed over ? Then back up, drive back and forth few times and do it again and...

    Perkins 404C22 Idle speed and WOT

    Thanks 400 low idle seems ridiculously low. I don't think it could even idle below 900-1000. Are you sure ?

    JCB Midi CX Intermittent Power to wheels

    So I have purchased this Backhoe and working through some quirks. Latest is that at certain times it will act like it doesn't have full power to the wheels and others it will. I have moved the creep control around and sometimes seems like it will help and others it doesn't. It is hard to pin...

    Perkins 404C22 Idle speed and WOT

    Does anyone know the factory spec for idle speed and WOT rpm on Perkins 4 cylinder 50 hp diesel non turbo ? Assume the adjusting nut for the throttle cable to adjust the lever so it sits on the factory stop. ?

    So here are some more updates. Installed new Lift pump, now it had some pressure. Previously read 0 psi. Now seeing 3-4 psi . Started to inspect all the lines. Discovered a pin hole leak right at the entrance to the lift pump outlet. Cut the hose back and reinstalled with new clamps. Leak...

    2008 JCB Midi CX Stalling under load

    So I did some more testing today and believe I have come to a conclusion. I removed the output fuel line coming from the the filter that goes to the injection pump. I installed my test port into the existing fuel port and hooked up to my fuel gauge to test the pressure of the lift pump. Key on...

    2008 JCB Midi CX Stalling under load

    If I stop doing anything with load it will come back up. I tried using loader , backhoe , stabilizer arms. Doesn’t matter what it is. If I put it under heavy load it will bog down and stall if I don’t let off. That’s why I’m thinking it’s fuel related.

    2008 JCB Midi CX Stalling under load

    Yes it does seem likes it’s laboring or just running out of fuel. I do see some black smoke. If I back off Rpm’s will rebound pretty closely to the original set point fast then slowly climb back to actual set point. Then act like nothing is wrong it usually takes a few repetitive cycles or...

    2008 JCB Midi CX Stalling under load

    Actually no. It can occur when I use anything. The repetitive motion or heavy load will cause it to start bogging down and if I continue then it will stall out. Starts right back up. Idles perfect. It’s 50 hp Perkins. Very powerful when it’s got full power. You could do one motion with heavy...

    2008 JCB Midi CX Stalling under load

    So I recently purchased a 08 Midi. Overall nice machine. I have discovered when using it as soon as I start to put some decent load on it , it will bog down and stall out unless I let off. Runs normal at idle and goes right up to full throttle when not on load no problem. I drained fuel tank...
