I borrowed a JD400 gas, industrial model loader. I just finished replacing the shaft seal on the power steering pump. I had to remove the oil radiator and the cylindrical tank the flows into it.
(hydraulic fluid was getting into crankcase thru a bad shaft seal)
Drained and Replaced all the fluids and oil filter.
Does this system need to be bled? If so where?
I actuated the bucket and backhoe before using it, put everything thru it paces till it ran smoothly.
After about 2 hours of use it ran out of gas, so I put 7 gallons of fresh gas in tank. After a couple of tries it started up and ran pretty good. But when I picked up a load of stone and I when to dumped it, the engine stalled.
I started it back up and each time I tilted the bucket the engine would stall.
I was thinking of changing the gas filter but it ran good until I tried to dump the bucket. When I switched the hydraulics to the backhoe it was now running a little rough too.
