I work for a Cat dealership. Take oil samples, if they come back clean, don't change the oil. Change filters regularly, but no need to change oil as long as samples come back clean.
@Hehrfarms1 4 ай бұрын
Yes... absolutely true. IF you dont have your oil analyzed you should really look into it. the price where I send mine in Ft. Wayne, In are very reasonable. with oil especially all synthetic oil on the rise.... pull sample, mail it in, with one week results back, oil good, change filter, if oil is bad change both and investigate reason for. Bottom line... Low priced maintence.

We never changed hydraulic oil where I have worked. Change plenty of filters and add good oil because when you blow a hose you change the oil

Was watching your video on changing the filters on your excavator when you pull the cover off the return filter for the tank it’s not uncommon to see Oil sitting on top of that cap It usually means the seals might be leaking but in your video it look like you’re missing a plug in the top of that plate. You might want to check that. I think you guys did a pretty good job for never working on that before.also a good way to check real quick If your ECM is not working on a truck engine is to just by watching the dash to see if there’s an engine RPMs while you’re cranking should show 200 rpm or so and the dash receives that information from the engine, ECM

Thanks for another great video Chet. It was most interesting. That digger you have take a bit to change the hydraulic oil in it. Quite a few filters and hard to access areas. Believe you said 36 gals of hydraulic oil to replace-wow. Amazing some of these machines. I hope they can figure out the big oil leak on Air Force one. Hopefully it is an item under warranty. See what next week brings for it. I hope all of you have fun on your snowmobiling trip out west. The one you did last year was lots of fun. Safe journey all of you. Getting some of your shop jobs done and moved out it seems. Waiting on parts for a few of them I believe. About it I guess. Thanks for everything Chet and crew. You all take care and be safe.

@Tylerscummins 4 ай бұрын
Little different but we run 1300-5000 horse power engines in the oil field with a big day tank full of oil that constantly maintains the oil level. So if you have a leak or they use some oil they dont run out. i have engines i haven’t changed oil in for 2 and half years and they run 24/7 aside from maintenance or a shut down. We throw new filters in it every 2150 hours and run the valves. And take oil samples. Fire them back up. They are also Natural gas engines. Not Diesel. So that makes a large difference. But im sure i have units with 10,000 plus hours on the oil.

Pete, as you know, wear isn't always immediately visible on the components itself. This is why we mechanics pay particular attention to drain pans. The fine gray or black matter is normal provided it's not an inch deep in the pan. When you see large bits, then theres problems, & of course you already know this. The input shaft needed replacing, so it had to be done. I was surprised you didn't check the end play movement with a dial indicator 1st (unless completed off camera). Will definitely need to check it upon reassembly to see where the bearing preload is. Looking forward to video 6, have an awesome week.

The tank was wiped clean and filled using the filter pump.The oil was tested monthly and reused if it passed testing.
