    MK48 Troubleshooting help needed

    The issue has been resolved. The engine stop cable was slightly pulled limiting the injector rack and not giving full fuel flow-- thus reducing engine power. Now she turns without even loading the engine.

    MK48 Troubleshooting help needed

    Ron, If it was working when you got it, you musta broke it. ;) haha Yeah, the troubleshooting guide doesn't seem to list this issue. Maybe some of the "hard steering" troubleshooting could apply though since it seems to relate to steering load. But the wheel itself is not hard to turn.

    Since the files are too large to email I just paid $5 and downloaded them. What I did was go to this site TM 08780B-10 You can also get the -20, -24, -34 maint guides for the same $5. Very much worth the few bucks!!:)

    One more thing... After installing the yaw lock out rod, should probably disable the yaw steering cylinders by moving the lever near the hydraulic reservoir ( right side of rig) to "Aux Hydraulics".

    Who Bought Those Oshkosh MK-48s???

    Good point on the yaw steering being an issue on a flatbed. In the operators manual for the MK48, it says the yaw steering lock-out rod should be used when transporting this way. The rod should be stored up under the front grill and can be removed and put into position on the yaw pivot. I am...
