I know a cat 3126 is not a tractor engine, but I think there is an answer to this problem among the experts on this forum. I am a member of the local volunteer fire dept. We have a 2003 Freightliner with a cat 3126 responding from our sub-station. A couple months back, I responded to an early morning fire and the batteries were dead. There are 3 group 31 batteries in this truck. Batteries were less than 3 years old. Truck is on a battery tender. Tried to jump start the truck but no luck. Replaced with 3 new batteries from the local co-op as soon as they opened up and back in business. Since then the truck has been hard starting. If you turn the key the first time it will crank 30 seconds w/o starting. If you crank for 4-5 seconds and turn the key off and try starting a second time it will always start and run fine. No codes are stored, and the intake heater system is working fine. Believe the low voltage from the bad batteries damaged something. Has anyone in YT land had a similar experience. Thank you for any help. Steve.

I’ve noticed a few questions in the comment section that could pertain to hydraulic cylinders so I thought we could take a short look at this real workhorse of the circuit. Cylinders are the reason for the hydraulic circuit. They take the fluid power delivered from the pump and magically change it into mechanical power. There are many types of cylinders that one might run across on a farm scenario. Each one could take a chapter in
