· I mean bone dry. (Mind you there was no sign of leakage in her parking spot.) So I added two quarts, and let her idle for 10 min, smooth and easy, no sign of any leak. I go for a quick spin, and at first all is great, then, the engine has no power at full throttle, speed maxed out at 27 MPH. I Park it, and again, no sign of leakage.
Buggah! As the others have mentioned, very bad things happen when an engine is starved of oil. Regarding the replacement engine, I recommend you either stick with your mechanic's sources or go brand new via the dealer route as you don't want to buy the cheapest engine online, you can find and then having no guarantee if things go pear shaped, in future.
As you all know, oil is used to both lubricate and somewhat cool the moving parts within an engine. Whether it be a gasket leak or a sealing problem within the cylinders, oil can seep through to.
· Oil leaks. Oil leaks are the most common symptom of a problem with the crankshaft seal. If the crankshaft seal dries out, cracks, or breaks, it can cause an oil leak. Small leaks can cause oil to accumulate on the undersides of the engine, while larger ones may produce a drip of oil ….
Internal leakage can occur in the pump, valves or actuators, and unless you are gifted with X-ray vision, is more difficult to isolate. As previously noted, where there is internal leakage there is a pressure drop, and where there is a pressure drop heat is generated.
Front-end loaders carry, lift and deposit loose materials: sand, soil, stone, quarry slag, coal, ore and many other similar loads. The front-end loader needs tremendous power to lift and tilt the bucket located at the end of two long arms. A powered hydraulic system ….
• Reservoir low on oil
Yes, the BlueDevil Hydraulic Stop Leak would be able to seal the leak you've described on your Lahman Skid Loader. You would use one oz. of the product per quart of fluid in the system. One gallon of the BlueDevil Hydraulic Stop Leak would treat 20 gallons of hydraulic fluid.
· Such leaks occur when bacteria builds up in the antifreeze or coolant solution. This bacteria eventually eats through engine parts. A blown head gasket also could cause water to mix into engine oil. If this is the case, then the vehicle requires immediate attention and service, since blown head gaskets lead to engine malfunction.

· Thanks for all the posts and suggestions to my mystery leak. It looks like it may be coming from my Vehicle Speed Sensor (VSS). It located on top of the trans. housing, and could leak oil into pools where I noticed the problem. I'm hoping that it's just a worn o-ring, but will have to pull the starter to get to the sensor cover.
· It was working fine and I went to pick a load and the machine shut off and the oil light started to flash and it will not restart ... I have rebuilt the control booth under the seat and got it to stop leaking but still when you turn to the left it sticks and wants to hang and go into a ... new holand lx885 skid loader and it just came..starter.
· My 6.0 diesel had a high pressure oil leak. I tore it down and found bad o-rings on the d-plugs so i replaced the d-plugs, stand pipes, even bought the master o-ring kit from victor reinz and did almost every o-ring you can think of. The HPOP also has the updated STC fitting already. I have.

If there is oil coming between the plastic and metal of the switch then the switch is bad, How the switch works is it is "normally closed" when the charge pressure is in the line it opens the switch and no power goes through. when the switch starts leaking oil the the oil closed the switch.
· With the key in the "start" position, if the starter motor is getting power but the starter doesn't work, then the starter is condemned and replaced. Note that starters can and sometimes do develop intermittent faults due to bad spots on the armature. The bottom line is if there is battery voltage to the starter (and no excessive voltage drop.
· Some common problems with tractors include running very roughly, cables coming apart in the track, acting as though it has run out of fuel and leakage from the hoses, according to ConsumerAffairs.com. Other problems include steering lockups, loss of speed, loader drifting, pitch hydraulic noise and premature part failure.
· It leaks a lot of oil until it gets down to the 1/3 level on the dipstick then slow to a trickle but 2 1/2 quarts in an hour is rough on the wallet and on the grass and carport as well. Too big of a leak to try to fix with an oil stop leak additive. I pulled the starter motor and see nothing obvious.
· Check the oil and coolant levels when the engine is cool. Check for leaks. Diesel Engine Starting Problems Check the fuel supply. Replace fuel filters, as they could be clogged. Check batteries and connections to starter. There could be a loose connection. Take a look at the starter motor. Check fuel pump and fuel lines. Check fuel for.
Sometimes, the oil system can spring a leak which soaks the starter, leading the starter to malfunction. If this is the case, you may be in for some very expensive repairs. You will likely need to replace the starter, but you will also need to repair the oil leaks to prevent premature failure of your replacement starter.
A popular misconception involving hydraulic cylinders is that if the piston seal is leaking, the cylinder will drift. While a leaking piston seal can be the root cause of cylinder drift, the physics involved are often misunderstood. Fact is, if the piston seal is completely removed from a double-acting cylinder, the cylinder is filled with oil and the ports are plugged, the cylinder will hold.
