1010 powering out???

Post by cdndozer » Sun Sep 06, 2009 8:28 am

well after finally getting my 1010 dozer out of its mudpit hellhole it had been sitting in for 5 months Via the help of a liitle D2 I picked up.It took approx 10 minutes to get it out.I would have been quicker if the JD wasn't powering out.
I find that the 1010 barely has the power to turn the tracks to move it to a place to start draining fluids to work on it.It would struggle to go about 15' before dying out and would be hard to start unless I let it sit for about 15 minutes.
Would this be something to do withold fuel (5 months) the fuel filters or is there an inline filter along the way,or could it possibly be air restriction as maybe some little critter built a nest in the air filter?or maybe something else?

Hello, I would call that a quagmire. lol. I dont know the 1010 so im not gonna say much, but I would start with filters and then go injector pump maybe. That is one super nice looking set of crawlers. The dozer and a loader are a very nice pair. Im sure someone will chime in to help. Tom.

You could probably play a hifh "C" on those tracks right now, that takes a horrendous amount of power. I stuck a 420 once in mud like that, and the only way it would move was in low gear until some of the mud came out of the tracks. This was a rebuilt 420 running over factory HP, and it still had trouble moving itself. I spent hours with a power washer to get the mud out of the tracks and get some slack back in them. Once done, problem solved.

with your machine tipped at an angle like that any sediment or junk built up in the tank will head right to the rear fuel pickup in the tank and plug the line.
I would make sure you have a nice solid flow of fuel from the line headed into your injection pump.
I learned this the hard way with log skidders,they get tipped at all kinds of angles,any garbage in the tank,always finds it way to the fuel pickup.
