BTW, fresh fuel all the way to the top, and Standyne additive which we run on our other diesel equipment. Hoping for some suggestions from those on this forum with greater insight. The fellow that sold us the machine suggested installing an electric fuel pump between the tank and pump to make starting easier since we have to use starting fluid to keep from running the batteries down from cranking. Minimize downtime and keep your machines running. Even better, our vast online inventory includes hundreds of thousands of ready-to-ship parts, making it easy to get the product you need quickly. This leads me to believe that I have a fuel problem, maybe due to an unknown filter in the injector pump feed circuit or elsewhere. Like all of our parts, our aftermarket Cat dozer parts meet OEM standards, allowing you to find high-performance parts for a more cost-effective price.

#Cat d4 7u series#
The D315 was introduced on the D4 6U/7U series in 1947. There was no sign of abnormal blow-by, and the exhaust remained somewhat white rather than the black smoke we get when under load. Cat D4 Specs Engine Transmission Blades Ripper Winch Dimensions Cat 963 Weight Cat D4. I have a stuck motor with a few missing parts as well. The track frames are mostly complete with rails, lifetime rollers, idlers, some tin. Basically what is left of a D4 orchard tractor. I was under the impression that if you could fit an old D4 with climbing spikes it would climb trees. D4 7U parts for sale was created by juiceman. I had no problem with steering and clutch actions when on the flat and not pushing the blade. Initially she seemed to push the blade without too much effort on about a 15-20% downhill grade, but when I tried to back her up the decline I couldn't get enough power to get her to move more than a foot or two before she'd began and finally stall out. Though it smoked badly when a few months ago I first drove it down our 1 mile road to our equipment area, after changing oil and filter, fuel, fuel lines, fuel filters (all four) it has cleaned up and seems to burn relatively clean and smooth.Ĭonfident that we had finally gotten the old girl ready for prime time I decided to head over and see what she could do. After several months of replacing, changing, filling, inspecting etc I was able to get our D4 7U ready for a maiden run on grading our new "boat ramp" leading down to our now-dry pond.

My partner and I thought we had a pretty good addition to our low budget placer mining operation when we bought this 1956 Cat D4 7U with adjustable angle blade.
