    Debris in fuel tank

    found the problem I called the service dpartment for Komatsu and the guy told me to blow the line out backwards. I started at the filter but it would not blow past the manual hand pump. I opened the line at the manual pump and found a clogged inline screen. Problem solved.........I HATE...

    Fuel Prices!!!!!

    Kind of Ironic that we buy all that cheap Chinese junk so we can have more things laying around.......Now we pay more for fuel because China needs more fuel to supply us with cheap junk. Supply and demand. Would someone haul my toys to Alaska.....I want to clear that pristine land and help do...

    D5H Fuel problem

    Well Cat didn't have any good ideas on this machine......there is no hand primer so I had to force the fuel up into the injectors. I cut an innertube up and clamped it around the fill spout of the tank. Added about 10 lbs. pressure and cracked the injectors. I had to keep adding pressure as...

    What to do with the stumps?

    I was able to burn most of the stumps and the rest are buried ......a few popped back up but won't be much of a problem getting rid of......one more big fire and a little dressing the banks and I'm done. The biggest problem was beating the rain. One hard rain filled the larger pond and an...

    I wished I had this equipment when I lived there. This dirt up here is very tough compared to the sand down there. All the ground down there is pretty flat. The big dozers I need here are probably overkill for down there. I'm just glad I don't have to drive Rt. 19.

    What to do with flood damaged vehicles?

    flooded Flooded vehicles are not worth the trouble. Everything under the hood will soon die. We tried to salvage a car from the '93 "no-name" storm. It liked to break us 1 dollar at a time.
