Case 1816B skid loader problems

I just recently purchased a Case 1816B skid loader which has some problems that I need help with. I know very little about these little guys but am eager to learn.
1) Where is the best place to get manuals?
2) Under a significant load the left clutch (???) seams to slip. Would this be a clutch or possibly a belt slipping??
3) The loader has very little power and I believe the engine needs replaced. I�ve looked on the Web at Kohler, Briggs and Honda engines but do not know which would be best. It appears that the Honda has the highest RPM range (3850 - high end). I believe Briggs has a high end of 3600. Not sure abut the Kohler. What else do I consider in purchasing a new engine? How difficult are they to replace?
Any help would be appreciated.
Jerry

2. It could be the belt slipping, so I would check that. It that's not the cause then I would check out the chain compartment for that drive and see if there might be some foreign material in there getting jammed into the drive chains. I had one of these units exhibiting low power once and it really had me baffled until I found a craftsman socket in the chain drive box.
3. The Tecumseh was a real torquer of an engine, only problem was it didn't like the 3750 rpm of the Uniloader design. Case later opened up the engine compartment and started installing the Onan engine. The swap was fairly simple but required a little bending on the loader support frame to accept the Onan. I would try to determine which would be the power loss problem, one of the big problems with these units is that the motor oil in the hydraulics breaks down faster than the normal hydraulic oil due to the temperatures reached. One way to resolve this is to replace the oil more often and enjoy the added crispness in the hydraulics. By no means should you ever replace the motor oil in the hydraulics with hydraulic fluid.
As far as engine replacements go, those mentioned would go better as personal reference. Most are narrower than the Onan so no modifications should be required to the frame. To achieve the same power as the Tecumseh, you may want to consider a 20 engine as a replacement.
Good luck.
