I have this 900x side by side that had been submerged completely in water. over the past year i have been plugging away at it fixing this and that. i have it running and drove it around a little bit and now there is water in the oil. I changed the oil and ran it for a few minutes and it gets...

removing the radiator made a lot of room to access the area. it turns out by removing the new fuel line we just put in, cleaning the ends and reinstalling it. the leak went away. thank you for the tips.

the hydraulic oil tank dropped about 2 or 3 gallons. level is below half. there are no external leaks on this machine. sounds unbelievable i know. the radiator has not dropped its level. i will look into the pump seal, see what that entails. appreciate the help. i will keep you posted.

A while back I posted about a RTV x900 that had been submerged under water for a time. I've come a long way with this machine. The machine is running after replacing the fluids, starter, alternator, injection pump,and injectors . After operating the machine the oil level in crankcase has...

Thank you, at first glance the thing is overwhelming, then remember it is just a machine.

Our skid steer developed a fuel leak which we traced to a steel line that runs to bottom of fuel rail. With great difficulty managed to remove that steel line. It was cracked from the end connected to rail. Installed a new line and after a minute it is leaking seemingly more. Verified the...

Hello all, I replaced the compressor, rcvr/drier, expansion valve and condenser on our 9540. I flushed the system thoroughly and used a 2 stage vacuum pump for several hours to evacuate. 4 ounces of oil and 30 ounces of refrigerant as specified. It is working great. I don't have a...

I will try to get the original ones. I looked at the injectors on a different rtv 900 and they are not threaded in completely. By that I mean I can see threads above the surface that are dirty weather worn etc. So. I'm assuming it is "normal" since that other machine has not been disassembled...

Of course. However, I do have another rtv 900 I can use to compare. What should I focus on?

RTV X900 rebuilt fuel injectors do not thread in completely. Put in new cup shape heat shield and new copper washer. I start threading in the injector and the last 10 threads or so it stops tight. All 3 thread in about same distance, 10 threads from being all the way in. I'm not pushing past...

Our SVL 95 skid steer AC blower motor is working at all speeds, however, not getting a lot of air flow. Checked for blockages in tubes etc. Cleaned the filters. I pulled the resistor our of case and watched the blower motor turning but not feeling much air. Consequently, the cab is not...

Cleaning out our 4160 baler, my best tool is my B and D leaf hog. The blower is pretty effective but can't get at the clumps in the corners. Any suggestions on how to get the hay out? Some machine setting on?? Any help is appreciated. Gift

this rtv x900 was fully submerged in water for some time. it has been a project getting the water drained and fluids changed. it is fortunate none of the machine's fluids were milkshake. as you would figure the electrical is a concern. the alternator, starter and fan motor were all boat...

A brief history, last year this tractor was leaking hydraulic fluid from the transmission vent on left side of tractor. The fluid was foamy with micro bubbles. Fixed the suction side defects, replaced filters and replaced fluid. For the most part of the past year the machine operated with no...
