    Cat 953Z won't start

    There should be a small (3/8" or smaller) fuel line connection fitting on top of the fuel tank that has a fairly narrow internal cross-section. I had one that was clogged. I recommend checking that too.

    D4H transmission question

    Hi Dennis, what did you achieve with the optimization of the transmission? Mine works like this too, maybe this is a stock problem?

    Why does Caterpillar use high tracks?

    Hello Nige, I was born in those years. I didn't know the history. This summer I also managed to get a good condition D4H from Germany. (The running gear needs to be completely replaced) but the machine is in good technical condition. Can you perhaps get information about its history? 9DB04323

    943 B It loses performance when warm.

    Hi Guys. I would like to ask you how the depreciation of the machines is calculated during the use of the machine? What is the depreciation cost per hour of operation? Is there maybe a formula for this or a separate thread on this forum? Thanks in advance for your help!

    943 B It loses performance when warm.

    Hi Dave, yes, I will have to replace the sprocket segments soon. As I mentioned earlier about the hydrostatic oil stick, unfortunately my financial options are limited. Now that the machine is finished and in the works, hopefully I will have the money :)
