Hi i have a 1990 jcb 3cx sitemaster with a bit trouble, starts up from cold with no problems, bit smokey till it warm up.
after about an hour of hard work, the engine feels like its going to stall so i shut it down, but when itry and re start the engine
it just turns over like its got a flat battery or a lazy starter, if i then leave it for 30-40 min it starts like there's been nothing wrong
and its good to go for another wee while
i have checked there's no thermostat in it and it looks like its not over heating
can anyone please help, its driving me mad not knowing if its serious or not
ps it is using engine oil but why i don't know
