Temporary Trade: Dead Toolcat for A300 Skid

My 2 speed S300 runs 6-7 mph in low and 12 mph in high.

Update: Gave back the A300 and got the TC back. Very impressed with the work the dealer did. I'm glad to have an enclosed cab again as the A300 was open cockpit. One note of interest: All my turbocharger mounting hardware was loose and the thing had a pretty good leak. The tech really focused on making sure I would check that hardware in the future. My TC has about 860 hours on it.

Spudgunner,

Excellent "heads up"!

I will be adding that to our "between storm" check list!

So that meant you were smoking black at times????

Did you overheat at all during the goat rope???

Words from the tech, "We were able to remove most of the soot from the bottom of the bed."

No overheating...I think. "During the goat rope" ??? I hesitate to ask...
