I had to pull my engine. Disconnecting the gas tank and sliding that out allows for access to the bolts from the underside of the engine mounting plate.
Very cool. I have the same rig, has the onan engine also and I was looking at the harbor freight motors last weekend. Perfect video!! Do you know what these weigh?
@@wlhequipment1730 excited to see part 2, this will be super helpful. Mine has needed points a few times, that is not a fun task with the location of them
I doubt you'll find a kit. Your best bet would be take the seals out carefully and measure them. Or you might get lucky and find a number on the seal itself.
Could you put the engine in the other way to not mess with the exhaust? What direction goes that shaft turn? Does it matter what direction it rotates (clockwise or counter clockwise) ???
Did the owner have any problems with the tilt angle using this engine on the Skid Loader? 15 degrees doesn't seem like much of an angle going up and down hills

Thanks! The machine weighs right under 2K, I believe it’s about 1900 lbs.

I have the same skid how can I tell
What model it is I can’t find anything on but love to find out more about it thanks
There is a Rounder Google group. It’s not terribly lively, but you can look through there.
Ok I got mine running only issue I have is finding a seal kit for the hydraulic drive motor any idea where I can find one nothing online

Tripod for camera?
I have a tripod, yes.

In the order they were asked: No, CCW, and yes.
@@wlhequipment1730 thanks!! When looking from the back what direction should the drive belt and pulleys be turning? Clockwise or counterclockwise?
@@ryanwrobel7233 Rotation is from the perspective of looking at the PTO. If the PTO is CCW, then looking at it from the other end would be CW.
@@wlhequipment1730 Great! Thank you for the info!!!

Nope. No problems anywhere. Still running like a champ.
My won't start do you happen to know what it might be?
I’d recommend searching forums. For both the Onan and the Predator, that subject is addressed fairly thoroughly.
