      Awesome pics, and very nice benchwork in the hillside too.

      How is the shuttle clutch working out?

          Try jumping across the large solenoid terminal with the battery cable on it and the small terminal on the solenoid. Be sure the transmission is in neutral.

            Check the clutch safety switch, I think it's under the deck plate. These have been known to be problematic or just out of adjustment. Remove the wires and connect them together or just jumper them. Be sure the transmission is in neutral.

              Being low on coolant could just be a matter of not having a coolant recovery system installed, or a bad radiator cap, allowing the coolant to burp out of the overflow tube.
              Keeping fingers crossed for you.

                I concur with Carl.

                Try removing the injectors or glow plugs and see if it will crank over.

                Aside from the hydraulic pump deadheading, you could also have a dribbling injector, which, over time, will partially fill a cylinder with fuel. Other possibilities are a cracked cylinder liner/head, or a bad head gasket. I assume you have the proper type and mix of anti-freeze/coolant meant for diesel engines?

                  Thanks, I hadn't thought of that. You're probably correct.

                    Damn, Eric! I am so glad you made it. Virtually the same thing happened to an 82 year old friend of mine only he was technically dead for an hour before he could be treated. Nevertheless, he is up and about now like nothing had ever happened.

                      Curious what the friction material is on the discs. Do you know?

                        On the new style brake bands the lining is thicker, and they are segmented. The idea was that you could replace them from the top without removing the final drives, but Yuchai recanted that so you still have to pull the finals.
