Cat Lift Trucks (& Caterpillar) V60C:
CAT VC60C Restoration, seeking help from experts around

Got one VC60C LPG forklift from auction and working on get it back to working state. The engine runs, lifts, weak drive torque. Seems have water overheat issue and engine oil pressure is not working. Going to start with standard testing like engine oil pressure test, compression pressure test etc. The engine oil seems be okay while hydraulic oil seems got water in it (cloudy).

It is continental f245 6 cylinders LPG with single speed power shift transmission, inching + brake.

This probably will be one long thread, appreciate any suggestions and thanks in advance.

Regards,
Daniel

For people know this model, what are your recommendations for oils? Turns out the specs from that old manual are obsolete, most of them. Need help to find up to date alternatives.

Anyone know for VC60C, how could both transmission and hydraulic oil turns milky while engine oil stays fine. Need flush the system and fill with new oil, according to the manual I got, SAE 10W-30/40 is good for hydraulic and SAE 10 CD is good for transmission. What should I use to flush the system?

Thanks again and regards.
