Help Please V1305 Komatsu

Hi all! Bought a Entec Timberwolf 150 Tracked chipper last week and have been using it without any problems until today. I went to start it after lunch and the old girl turned over but wouldnt fire up. I have taken the fuel stop solonoid off and it will start run and chip.

when the ignition is turned on the pin retracts for a second and then pops back out . A mate of mine thinks it could be the low oil switch playing up what do you all think??

Plus can I run the machine with the stop solonoid removed if I blank the hole off until I can get it checked out ?????

 

 

Meant to put Kubota...... Had a realy stressfull day today should have taken it off and spent time with the girls being that it my Birthday

Is your oil clean???

 

Apparently dirty oil with metal in it sets off the oil alert.

i had a similar problem with a tw150 towable machine. the solonoid had packed in but so wouldnt retract when the igniition was on so i changed the solonoid and it solved the problem.

Ill give it an oil change to be sure but it looks ok!

i think it was about £80 for the part any a few layers of skin of my knuckles trying to get the back bolt off!!!!!!

 

worth it in the end when i had fixed it myself !!!!!!!!!

I know what you mean about the back bolt

Worth an oil and filter change anyway Pat, clean oil keeps engines alive. Particularly little ones.
