    Cat 262C driveability/fuel issues

    Hey Munga22, Mine turned out to be the o-ring between the fuel filter and the water separator bowl. Two visits from two different techs, two different answers, $1200 later no better. $1.00 o-ring at NAPA fixed it. I have a perfectly good used LH joystick for sale if you’re interested... :)

    CAT 279C forward and rearward motion slows to a creep

    Field Tech was out today again with Cat ET scanner, machine isn't throwing any codes or showing any events... LH joystick showed it was slightly out of calibration. Best guess was that it was LH joystick related...? Is there anywhere to purchase a used joystick to confirm? Cat price is $660

    Cat 262C driveability/fuel issues

    Sorry. The rpm's stay the same. It did it last year and i was told fuel filter or clogged pickup line. Filter was replaced last week during an oil change and lines were blown out a few times when it started having issues last week

    Cat 262C driveability/fuel issues

    No, it just slows until the machine stops. I don't usually stay in it long enough to see if it will die.

    Cat 262C driveability/fuel issues

    I have a Cat 262C skid steer with driveability/fuel issues. While driving it will begin to lose power, go slower and slower until it stops. It has done this in the past and i have changed fuel filter, still does it... Or take off the suction fuel line and blow it out, still does it... Have...
