Have you dipped the slew motor reduction gearbox for oil? Have you greased the bottom bearing on it? Top bearing sits in oil under dipstick, bottom bearing gets a shot of grease from underneath after removing cover plate.

Seen this has been brought back to life our 2000 js130 has been ok. Sorted a few things out on it and it run and digs fine for the age of it. It does have dreaded electrical problems give throttle issues though. ScotJcb supposed to be coming to look at it for me.:(

What throttle problems does it have @KennyO ?
It was changing revs itself. Sometimes it was when you went over a bump. Sometimes it wouldn't rev at all on the dial.

Scotjcb mechanic cleaned up the multiplug for the throttle motor and then recalibrate it. It is ok just now but not had the chance to do much with it recently.
