    D51-PX22 undercarrage problems?

    I recently purchased a D51 and after about 12-16 hours of pushing dirt I noticed that alot of the pads on the right side were really loose. It looks like one of my rollers is shot, would that cause the pad bolts to back off? Also I noticed when tightning them most of the nuts had to be held to...

    Cat 320 FL power mode selection

    Yes I have an operators manual. And it has the exact steps, however I don't have high power mode as an option. Maybe my machine was for an area that doesn't allow it?

    D3G low power and smoking after heating up

    Well fortunately the tank wasn't as bad as I anticipated. We were able to flush it out pretty good. I disassembled the filter head like you described in post 11 and it had a bunch of rust flakes and muck in it. Cleaned it, blew compressed air thru the lines and reassembled. After 2 days of...

    D3G low power and smoking after heating up

    Do you have a schematic showing the fuel tank removal? We vaccumed what we could but there is still some rust or debris that we can't get to. I took off the bolts from under the tank but evidently there's more somewhere. I ordered a new fuel cap breather repair kit and the mesh screen fuel...

    D3G low power and smoking after heating up

    Problem started again. Do you know if there are any other fuel filters that may be plugged? I know the filter for the breather cap is bad, I'm going to call cat for a replacement today and go ahead snd replace the filter. We are also going to drain the tank and shop vac out what we can.

    D3G low power and smoking after heating up

    Well, it was working great for a while then the problem started again. I do think it's a fuel issue so we're going to drain the tank today and replace the twist on water seperator/filter

    D3G low power and smoking after heating up

    You nailed it! I opened the valve at the bottom of the fuel tank and it would barely drip at first. I let it drip for 10 minutes and only collected a couple inches in a water bottle. There was a little water and sediment but not a whole lot. I took my air tank and blew in the valve back into the...

    Just purchased D3G LGP

    I just purchased a 2005 D3G LGP s/n BYR00977 showing 9653 hrs. It seems to be a pretty straight machine, engine sounds good, transmission shifts properly, steering appears to be good. No noticeable major issues upon initial inspection. I did notice the horn did not work and some of the bushings...

    299D Driver Alert

    That makes sense. We had a hard time getting the electric motor to unlock the tool. Is there a way to clear this code?
