Drive Issue

Once forklift reaches operating temperature the drive cuts out. Machine is allowed to cool and can drive it until it gets warm again. Has Perkins engine, serial is 352J02014745.

Currently diagnosing pump, looking for help on pressures. Thank you.

Check to see if their is a crank shaft sensor. Had an LP that would run 20 min and shut down. Then cool down and run. Found a sensor and i checked resistance when it was cool and it was.915. Put sensor in boiling water and resistance dropped to zero. Also check fuel for water
