    This little dozer is wicked cool. As much fun as it is to see you fix up machines that you find that are not in working order, I am glad to see that you purchased something and start using it right off the bat. Also, it was cool to see the previous owner show you how it worked. It was obvious he liked the machine and took good care of it, as the owner before him seemed to have done as well.

    Nice score! Now time to delve into the world of air cooled industrial engines...sounds like the governor is "laggy"....late to engage, and then over-shoots. You can hear it surge while pulling the boat, or when the engine gets bogged down while blading. A little fine tuning and I think you will get even better performance/results (which is already impressive).

    I fixed one of these up when I was a teenager 20 years ago. It was the non hydraulic version with rippers. It also had rubber tracks. I built lots of motorcycle trails/jumps with it and built a small pond. I put at least 1000 hours on it. The weak spot of these things is the small gear on the final. The keyway is too small. Be careful popping that clutch hard pushing heavy. It's a pain to fix. My uncle had a machine shop so we were able to redo the key ways. Anyways it broke way up a steep hill I built a motorcycle trial on and had no way to get it off the mountain it's probably still on my dad's old ranch lol. Need a diesel quad to drag it off the mountain.

  • @862057

    You want to adjust that main jet on the carb so it runs good under load and leave it there. Don't close it when you shut the machine off. Turn the fuel off at the tank. The white spark plug indicates that the carb jet was not opened enough.
