My JS130 Stuck

Post #1 by 4020 » Sat Mar 28, 2009 9:34 am

Pics if my 15tonne 2006 JS130, was 6 months old at the time, one side sank in the peat and it just rolled over, it's the first and last time it was taken on to peat, use my 2003 13tonne JS130 for drainage, it travells much better.
It rolled over late one night so nothing could be done until next morning, we dragged an old WW2 winch out of the nettles, this pulled it nearly upright, i took the injectors out and sucked the oil out of the cylinders, turned engine over by hand, then on starter, put the injectors back in and it fired up, once we righted it, the tank was filled with diesel and it was ditching again by 10 o'clock.
Fortunatley little damage was done.
