  1. If its the same as my mini digger, its a thumb screw on the side of the injector pump. You unscrew it to bleed the system, once its running you screw it in and it should be sorted.

     

    I was wondering that I thought most were using the 10mm screw to bleed it

  2. If I am following this, you have replaced a busted valve with a repaired valve and now it wont work????

     

    Buy a new valve, it will be better than the alternative which is wasting time messing with a busted valve. Welding valves back together is a new one on me.

     

    if its an alloy bodied valve I would try and get a steel bodied replacement as I think alloy valves in general are only rated to 200bar welding valves is a recipe for trouble is every thing else in the system ok as it takes a lot to bust a valve I would look at the design of the system if it is doing this regular too many pressure spikes possibly

  3. I have a laddomat one on our boiler and they are essential to stop them from running too cold it sounds like you should deffo have 1 fitted all it does is pump around until it reaches a preset temp then bleeds in cold water at a sufficient enough rate to stop overcooling off the boiler

  4. I remember the vacuum wipers on the old 105E . They used to practically stop when going up hill and were a complete blur on over run down hill :biggrin:

     

    I had only read about them in old books I never experienced them you must be really old:thumbup:

  5. my old rover never used the choke that was with a carter afb theres plenty of petrol when you pump the loud pedal a couple of times I think the choke flap had been tossed away as it got in the road the vacuum pipe will be ok blanked off unless you need it for a servo or possibly some of these old things had vacuum wipers back in the stoneage

  6. another vote for echo we've got 2 and they are pretty good if you do get one make sure you get the wee plastic bushes in your toolkit they fall out every now and then especially if you are changing between trimmer and chainsaw heads good piece of kit

  7. I recently had a CAT touriquet applied at a first aid course.

    The fella doing it put it on properly tight , and said that most people would be squeeling by now , and it is tight but does not cut in.

    My fingers went cold , but no pins and needles.

    He took it off sharpish , and my question to him , and to everyone,is this.

    If a person has a major bleed whereby a tourniquet is needed , once the tourniquet is applied and the bleed stemmed , would it be prudent to apply dressing ,celox on the wound so the tourniquet can be released completely or somewhat ?

    I know current thinking is to leave it on and whatever happens to the limb after that is not your problem.[/QUOT/]

     

    Well I wondered that too. I'm no expert but would think in a longer term situation, remote rescue scenario I would try it, with compression bandages. You'd know soon enough if the bleed was starting again. Wouldnt use celox though, and especially not if surgery was only a few hours away, as it would complicate the surgery.

    when we used it the nurse just washed it off with salt water

  8. I will post some more pictures when I get time. The machine you are refering to is someway from this one. That machine is as you say a small rayco on a 1.5 ton machine. Mine is based on a 5 ton pell job (Volvo) and powers a revolution hd disk via hydraulics from the massive 200hp straight 6 that has been shoe horned in the rear. It will out perform a hurricane hands down and sat in A comfy seat too😀

     

    200 hp in a mini digger you have got to post pictures of that .is it a Deutz perhaps

  9. I get them in the workshop all the time at the mo I have 3 in various states of bollocksness parts are pretty cheap for them I gave up using genuine parts for them as they can break them just the same as Chinese parts the pretty much if you prime and its starts on the 3/4pull you wont go wrong it always amazes me how manky the air filters get and they still run

  10. I found a wiring diagram for a Kohler a while back if I remember there is a feed to the starter a live from the battery an earth and a wire from the coil in the off position the earth is linked to ground in the run position there is nothing connected and in the start position the starter is linked to the battery
