New Rippa NDI313 problems

[Muddernuker]

Thank you all for the replies. I will be ordering a sheet of aluminum and a10" fan which I will install behind where my legs rest. I will remove the metal cover and replace it with the new cover/fan. In the meantime, I removed the rear door and it runs much cooler. I haven't had the engine quit on me since I did that and replaced the fuel filter. I've been practicing on the mini ex but it gets a little sketchy at times when digging and moving due to the low weight and high center of gravity and narrow tracks. It feels like it's going to tip over. The digging force is good and I'm getting the hang of it.

I have the same mini. I have answers for you. The fuel is being vaporized in the fuel filter because of the heat from the engine not being fully duckted away because the fuel tank and air lovers are removed. I also turned my hyd cooler around and lifted it 3 in so the cool air can be pulled into the engine and pushed away towards the pump. Then I added 10mm thick firewall insulation everywhere under there. This weekend I will be putting exhaust wrap on the muffler and flex pipe and installing a 12in fan pushing air out the pump side. The fix the fuel problem you have to remove the right side silver trim and move fuel pump down there where the fuel exits the plastic tank. Dm me if you have any questions or issues

I will look into doing the same thing with the hyd cooler. Thanks for the idea.
