Hyster H80XM LPG

Hi, I am having a issue with the forklift stumbling. Starts and runs fine but at idle it will stumble like it's about to die for about 1 second, then run fine again. This happens about every 5 to 10 seconds. If I give the unit throttle it will rev up, but it still stumbles, about every 5 to 10 seconds at higher RPM's.

Thanks in advance for the help.

Showing items 1 - 3 of 3 results.
some of these units have what they call a dashpot on the throttle.
if it is not adjusted correctly it can allow the throttle to drop too low or have a surge in it like what you are describing.
On the higher rpm's i'm not sure what that might be unless it has a mechanical governor on it, if thats been tampered with it might be out of adjustment causing that surge.

Fact of the week
Bluetooth is named after the 10th-century Viking king, Harald Bluetooth, who united warring tribes in Denmark and Norway. In 1997, Jim Kardach from Intel gave the name to the technology because of its ability to unite different communication protocols, just as Harald united various tribes.
