I have a Bobcat 863 and need help with a recurring problem. It starts up and operates fine for 3-10 minutes, then I will loose drive. It basically rolls to a stop with engine running. The bucket controls still function, but no drive.
I get drive back by doing 1 of 2 things. #1. If I turn off engine and restart I will get drive back for a couple of seconds to a couple of minutes.
#2. If when I loose drive, I throttle back to idle and tilt the bucket, I get drive back again for a couple of seconds to a couple of minutes.
Anybody seen this or have any thoughts about where to start? I have a mobile mechanic whose taken a few cracks at it. He's replaced some relief valve, some solenoid, and then seat bar switch/magnet. No luck.
Any help is appreciated.
