Here are a number of tips on the hard starting- as Lavoy said they start hard especially in cold weather. You can check timing with a plastic window which is discussed in these posts. Skip/smoke when cold and not under load sounds like a timing issue on your injection pump but I am not the expert that some others like Jdemaris or Lavoy. Use the keyword and author search together to find them- you will find there are about a dozen of us that routinely discuss 2010s. I don't have time today to link to them, but I know there are posted a number of them on the skip/smoke issue and the hard starting. There is A LOT of good information on these issues in the post archives on here. It does not appear to be loosing coolant, but I really have not put enough hours on it to know for sure. I have new filters but am not sure how confirm the injectors are working correctly. I am thinking its fuel related.pump, injectors or filters. It is not as obvious when under load and warm. ![]() Also when idling fast or slow it appears to have a small miss or hiccup that gets worse with no load engine speed. When I am running the machine digging or driving up steeper grades after its nice and warm it will actually clear up significantly even when throttled down and idled, but after a few minutes of idling it will start smoking again. The only time it seems to get better is when you actually run the machine a little harder. It is a little hard to start (likely due to glow plugs and slow cranking) and it smokes a lot when cold (white/grey) and continues to do so pretty much all the time. I have a new set of glow plugs on the way and will test the compression when I have the glow plugs out. The issue I am trying to get all figured out right now is the hard starting and smoking. ![]() I have gotten the track adjusters fixed, put a new exhaust on it, greased up all the fitting and replaced a few grease zirks. I have been working on getting it all adjusted, greased, maintained and ready for some hard work around the house. I picked up this 2010 about a month ago or so.
