Hey everyone, I am new here. So far there seems to be a wide variety of topics available. I am looking for help with a Clark (don't know what letter) 20 yardlift. I am not sure of the year, but the propane system is working good for idle, but it is not interested in accelerating. Starves for fuel. Engine runs great. It has been abandoned for a few years. Front brake is stuck, and looks like there is water in the hydraulic oil tank and valve assembly. It tries to go forward and reverse. I guess that is a good sign. Controls are on the column. Pneumatic tires are decent, that is how I figured out it is a yardlift. It would be perfect for lifting engines and other odd jobs. But I don't even know where on the unit to find the model number, or where a clark dealer is to get parts. Is it worth messing with, or should it get melted down and made into something useful? Thanks for any tips or pointers. Located in NW Ohio, makes rust happen!

You need to pick up a telephone and talk to the tech support people there.
Its a great company. Make sure you have all the numbers you can find and photos to quick email them while in the midst of conversation.

If there's water in the hudrulic system leave it where it sits and find another one. Water leads to rust and rust in a hydraulic system leads to expensive repair costs.
