Can you send me the link to it... Haven't found it yet

OK mystery is solved, I went back out to start it up ran for 2 minutes at low idol and a huge bang happened, I heard that. I am now in need of a 1010 diesel motor, anyone have one for sale without a hole in the side. :( On a positive not my pump was working great. This is a very, very, very sad day....

thats funny Lavoy! Well I did the pressure to the tank with a rag. It worked, the old crawler fired up and is running!!!! :) However I still have low power and it has a knocking noise, I cant hear much at all, I am pretty much deaf and with my hearing aid its hard for me to pin point the noise but m...

I got good fuel flow to sediment bowl 2. bleed first filter bolt unitl flows free with no air 3. bleed 2nd filter bolt until flows free 4. loosened injectors 1 turn cranked engine over was much of anything coming out at the injectors, so I loosened another turn expecting a...

I pulled fuel filters and they didn't look very good at all, These was the one filters I have not changed yet. They was pretty much shot. I am going to try and get some from my local parts store if not then I will stop at John Deere down in the city. Thanks for all the input I hope this is the probl...

ya but mine is not gas, it's diesel so the battery don't matter. No plugs and wires but I am wondering how to check and make sure the injector pump is setup correctly, but really don't see why it would change all of a sudden. I guess it's possible something major has gone wrong but with all my fluid...

Hello, I have a 1010c for about a year now and I take pretty dam good care of it and follow service manual. However yesterday I seem to have run into a problem, I was getting low on Diesel and I added what I had in a can which was about 2 gallons, about 30 minutes later the crawler started having lo...

If you are pulling the lever back that far, you are short on brake. Either tighten the band, or adjust the screw that actuates it. Lavoy Thanks Lavoy you was right thats all I needed to do. I guess I was just tripping on the instructions. Just got it back together and turns both ways and I don't ha...

Hello everyone, To turn left I was having to pull handle all the way back to the seat, and after quite a bit of use that wasn't enough anymore. :( So now I am attempting to make brake clutch adjustment. I am following the service manual but I have a probably stupid question. Why does the service man...

My tractor has the shifter on the floor, does that mean mine is a 2010? My reverser is on the Dash but the gears shifter is on the floor. How can I know for sure if mine is a 2010 or a 1010? the engine tag says 1010C... Also does anyone have any tips on removing the hood and gas tank, easiest way......

Does anyone know a good low cost place I can find a exhaust manifold gasket for my tractor? I have to take my exhaust manifold off to weld it, I broke it in half lifting something improperly. Really didn't hit it too hard but someone had welded it before so it broke easy this time. I am planning on ...

I bought a service manual off Ebay, however it sure looks short, pretty much only covers the hyd portion of my 1010C. Does anyone have a service manual for the 1010 and can tell me how many pages are suppose to be there. Mine is only 62 pages long. it says (1-62) like there is more chapters. Let me ...

My super says they run motor oil in all their equipment because it makes the machine run faster, he said its an old trick thats been in the logging industry for many many years. He said they have never had a problem and CAT and John Deere both say its fine to do. I think I will stick with Hyd fluid ...

I am waiting for a reply from our Cat Shop Supervisor as to why they use motor oil. I know there is no difference in the seals they run and they never change the oil in the winter, we never get -20 degree weather around here.

I doubt its due to cost as tghey never cut corners around here.

in the sawmill we used hyd fluid, in the cat shop they used 30wt motor oil . I rebuilt all the cylinders and valves on site and never saw a difference the seals when cyl was rebuilt.ofcourse all our seal were poly seals. I hve not yet rebuilt one of my new JD1010 cyl so I have no clue on what the se...
