    RTV 900 fuel adjustment

    Hmmm.</p> </p> Hearing all of your results makes me think I may just have a lemon, or an early model (it's an 05) and there are things I can do to help it along a bit.</p> </p> Fwiw, it made decent power on the dyno. It's been a couple years now, but IIRC it was around 17.2hp or so...

    RTV 900 fuel adjustment

    </p> Well.... when you keep running it in, in 1/4 turn increments, until you don't even have enough threads left past the jam nut to screw the little cap on anymore, and the vehicle has gained NO performance and is emitting NO smoke at ANY time....</p> </p> Yeah, it would appear that you...

    RTV 900 fuel adjustment

    I did this a year or so ago, and it made exactly zero difference in fuel delivery...</p> </p> I would love to know how to actually get some more fuel to this thing though.</p> </p>

    TIRE QUESTION 27X12X12

    I have 26 x 12 x 12 tires all the way around on my 900. There is occasional light rubbing at full lock in the front. But other than that, not a thing.</p>

    I see that people make turbo kits for these machines, so apparently I'm not the only one beliving more power would be of some benefit.</p>

    Charles missing post (partial) Horsepower, plain and simple

    Yeah, I actually talked to a mechanic that works on these after it wouldn't pull my truck up the hill from the barn and he explained to me how to check the pressure and how the swash plates were redesigned because the early design would sometimes warp. I have not dug into the hydrostatic unit...

    Charles missing post (partial) Horsepower, plain and simple

    This is also why explanation of a "two stage" anything will not be found in the workshop manual. It doesn't exist. People are simply running out of power and releasing some of the load by letting up on the pedal. This lets the engine rpm climb back to the power peak where more torque can be...

    Charles missing post (partial) Horsepower, plain and simple

    Well I got ahold of some people today about the pump delivery. Hopefully I can get a detailed explantion of how to address the injection quantity. I know I have seen an RTV absolutely ROLLING coal. If I can get that much fuel with just a little boost it should wake right up. I would say 50% or...

    Charles missing post (partial) Horsepower, plain and simple

    Here's my problem with that.</p> </p> The accelerator pedal..... read that again, accelerator pedal, is the input from the operator about how fast they want the vehicle to move forward. So no matter what the situation, nor the scenario, when the pedal is to the floor and the operator is...

    Charles missing post (partial) Horsepower, plain and simple

    Near as I can tell, a hydrostatic power transmission is simply a device that modulates the volume of fluid acting on a hydraulic motor in one form or another. Similar to if you had a variable swashplate piston pump and the lever to alter the swashplate were attached to the same lever that...

    Charles missing post (partial) Horsepower, plain and simple

    It has always run this way. I have serviced it as required and it has not ever run rough or badly. It just lacks power IMO. Not that it lacks power compared to other RTV's. I haven't driven many, but seeing them running around they all move with the same pace.</p> On another note, when I was...

    Missing posts, or missing threads?

    Am I just missing it, was it moved or was my thread asking how to adjust the fuel delivery of the injection pump actually deleted?</p> </p>
