    Common Oil Leak Locations on Bobcat T650?

    Hey guys, I'm looking at picking up a Bobcat T650 that has an engine oil leak. They think it might be from the oil pan, but aren't sure. Are there any other common areas those like to leak? If it is the oil pan, does the motor have to be pulled to get the pan off? The machine has a right under...

    863 bobcat no lift or tilt and unexpected drive movements

    I have a 863 bobcat loader i bought at auction that is having some issues. As soon as you start the machine it will start moving in all different directions. It's like it has a mind of its own. You can drive it around. But if you're trying to sit still or giving little input it wants to do it's...

    Bobcat 753 Lift only works with Auxiliary hydraulics engaged

    Hello, I have an old Bobcat 753 that had a stuck pedal. I took the control valve out, unstuck the spool valve, rebuilt it, and now the machine works great, except the lift only works with the Auxiliary hydraulics turned on, and the switch engaged to the right or to the left. The tilt only...

    Bobcat 323-J controls are jerky...

    Got a 2005 Bobcat 323-J that hasn't been serviced in a long time. The hydraulics leak a little, requiring about a quart or so after 5-10 hours use. My main complaint is the controls seem awfully jerky. They will respond nice and easy at first but just a little too much handle and they jump...

    Bobcat 743 Spool issue

    Anyone had this issue...? I bought a beat up old Bobcat 743 and it mostly worked as it should. The tilt spool forward seal had a good leak and the boom down pressure seemed off almost like the cylinders were binding up when going down and the float function didn't really work. I decided to...

    Leaking Fuel return line

    Bobcat 863, 1997: it looks like that one of the braided diesel fuel return hoses is leaking where it is connected to the fuel injector. There’s no clamp, the hose is just shoved on top of the fuel injector. It’s about 3 inches long. If I just remove the old hose and put a new one on, do I have...
