Bobcat E50 Excavator will not start

[@Seananigans220]

As someone who works in bobcat parts, these videos have helped me diag customer issues over the phone. Thanks!

[@marionstorm9004]

Great job! Your channel is educating owners and is a great service!

[@tetradgroup]

Thank you! I enjoy being able to help!

I have a used E55 with no bulb for some reason. After changing the fuel filter it was impossible to start, I ended up using about 5 psi from an air hose, through a gasket where the gas cap goes. That primed the system great, but it sure was a pain until i figured out that trick.

[@KarasCyborg]

Thanks, I picked some good tips on how to trouble shoot: #1 Don't let me machine run out of fuel.

[@tetradgroup]

Definitely #1 on the list!

[@ls1jeeper]

I keep a little 12v inline pump on the truck with several feet of wire with alligator clips. Makes priming stuff so much easier when people run stuff dry (not that it ever happens lol)

[@Pearly313]

Love these videos, please keep them coming!!! I own an E20, T450, & MT52. These videos are EXTREMELY helpful!!!!

[@trianglesky380]

Thank you. Im new at bobcat and I love it. Your no start videos are very help full I watch them all and learn a lot from you.

Good explanation of priming and fuel pickup. Access to tank and pickup tube looked easy on that cabless E50. How to access top of tank and fuel pickup on E55 with cab? Very helpful video. Thanks!

[@T18skyguy]

Another good job thanks for posting it.

[@dgb5820]

Awesome job, so they left the bleeder open, that was the key

[@oby-1607]

Good tip on the primer bulb.

[@1234554321ep67890]

[@tetradgroup]

[@maxxtech8532]

We call that easy money, oh wait it's snowing. Good job

[@tetradgroup]

Thanks!

[@EliVillegas-xy6zu]

You really do good explaining thanks

[@andrewgable7273]

Huh. And the true story finally comes to light. Very fascinating. Fuel system can be a PITA, can't they?!!?!! Thx!!! Stay warm!!!

[@Rprecision]

Thanks for the information. Looks like the same mechanically injected motor as my 763. I'm unclear on the jet valve, is it just allowing it to bypass to the return line by opening it?

[@concernedcitizen3651]

Great info ....Thanks

[@tetradgroup]

Glad it was helpful!

[@jrac863]

Starting fluid and Kubota is a no no.Was there a bleeder valve right above the fuel water separator?

[@markmahonjr1872]

I have a T-650 that has a intermittent aux hydraulic problem. It keeps Turning off the aux hydraulics. Ever seen this ?

[@MerMachinery]

hello, I have a problem with a bobcat e27z, after about 15 minutes of work the controls on the arm become very slow (I checked the hydraulic pump is ok) the tracks and the blade work ok, could you help me with any advice?

[@ChuckHiatt]

Enjoy your videos, I have a 341G that the swing brake locks up intermittently. Swings smooth as glass one day and the next will slow down and lock up within 30 minutes, Got any ideas?

[@tetradgroup]

Thank you so much for watching and reaching out! Due to my hectic schedule, I am unable to answer all the questions I get on KZbin. I want to be able to help, but focusing on one person takes more time than I am allotted! (My wife keeps me busy!) If you are in need of assistance, please feel free to reach out and schedule a consultation through our website. This will ensure that I set aside time for your call and even before and after so I can research your issue and work with you to resolve it! Thank you so much for your understanding! www.4tetradgroup.com/consultations

[@robthebuilder4004]

Hey love the content you put out and Im a avid watcher of all your vids! I have a question about a e80 excavator not working the way it i assumed it should..(lol I am far from a mechanic). The right joystick has a rocker and a button on the top of it. The button extends the thumb... and I can't retract it... should the rocker not control the thumb or am I missing a setting? Is there an aux switch I am missing to push????

[@harrybarker1408]

good vid dood!!!

[@briandannels1908]

I have two questions 1) on a 2018 E42 is there a way to adjust the travel speed? 2) where do I find the hydraulic air bleed hose you sell?

[@Loyaltothefoil8]

On your blade down lever

[@jayhakim5949]

When you post I watch don’t even get to see just listen in the car better than nothing

[@tetradgroup]

Haha- thanks!

[@dane9175]

Thanks!

[@tetradgroup]

Thank you for your support!!

[@mikeramirez5622]

Why did the gauge say 3/4 tank

[@ozarkarky]

Shame on Bobcat for such a poor primer bulb design. They've had plenty of time to make it work correctly. 😬

[@deanl2427]

Thank you for another great video! Keep safe and warm.

[@tetradgroup]

Thank you! Will do!
