Re: carb problem
Given the age of the machine, there is a good chance the carb has been apart several times. Is it possible a prior owner could have lost some vital piece(s) or put in some off pieces(say from another carb, tractor etc). Going through a exploded parts break down with a fine tooth comb maybe a good id...

Re: carb problem
? To Lavoy. Do the Dubuque carbs have passages that can be stubborn and need cleaned with a drill bit(by hand) like the Waterloo carbs can be known. Bruce

Re: carb problem
I have had condensers do weird stuff as well. My JD 630 had a lean issue with throttle, lots of troubleshooting later, I changed the condenser with an NOS (USA made) one. No more issues. Maybe it can store a charge at slow idle but no faster ??

Re: carb problem
If the fuel and carb system are up to spec as you have discussed, I would start to troubleshoot the ignition. It has been my experience that many a problem blamed on the carb were actually ignition system problems, condenser, points, etc.. I think the compression test is a great idea, also. I agree ...

Re: carb problem
I risk be over-simple, but is the air cleaner clear of obstructions? I know you said it was running, but it was unclear to me if the air cleaner was "hooked up". Is the governor functioning properly? I have much more experience with Waterloo two-cylinder carbs. We actually use small drill bits about...

Re: 450C loader losing hydraulic power
Good advice from Jim. The hydraulic filter on the 450C is in front of the radiator, but behind the grille. The other hydraulic filter that is even more neglected is inside the right box, inside the hydraulic reservoir. Unless it is a late C series, then it is in the same box, but is a modern screw-o...

Re: 350 B Track
I have soaked frozen parts in a water bucket for 1-2 weeks, before they saw it my way. Pins and bushings can be replaced. Are the chain rails worth saving? Some cases make more sense to replace the whole chain, than to pay for track press time/labor. You could upgrade to a SALT chain with two piece ...

Re: 350 B Track
Your previous use of PB may inhibit the action of the water. Does PB have a water dispersant property?

Re: 350 B Track
How long is awhile? I suspect it will need to be longer. There is a lot of surface area involved.

Re: Can't get transmission oil pickup screen out.
I was able to open the pictures. I have not weighed in previously b/c I have very little knowledge in the triple nickel ream. Is it possible someone could have been inside the case and welded or tacked the pick up so it would not dislodge; therefore, preventing future external removal?? Best regards...

Re: How crazy an idea is...
Good morning, I like the idea quite a bit. I think for safety reasons it would be a good idea to put a edge or short guardrail on the edges to prevent the steel cleats from sliding sideways on the concrete and falling. I'm certain you have thought of this, but just wanted to add it. Best regards, Br...

Re: exhaust manifold replacement ideas
Hello Nick, That will be quite a rewarding project. I would say your bits are held together with expanded iron oxide. I would turn the bolts in “studs” by grinding the heads down flush. Use a torch to heat the cast pieces and tap/pull/ tap again until off. Walk way, return and repeat. Best regards, ...

Re: Scared newbie - should I just sell it? How much?
Welcome to the crawler forum. Disclaimer starts here. I believe in keeping the old equipment going. There are quite a few arguments in favor of mechanical machines over the computer counterparts. I would look over your equipment(or have an experienced person). If it has a massive failure or it is go...
