Up Topic Welding Industry / General Welding Discussion / Brand new SAE300
- - By rcwelding (***) Date 05-09-2014 00:01
I just saw that the 2014 SAE 300s have a 3 cylinder turbo Perkins diesel or a 3 cylinder Kabota diesel instead of the 4 cylinder Perkins.

Does anyone have one. It looks like it would be under powered.  Im curious what they are like.

The old Lincoln 250s with a 3 Cylinder sound like they are going to rattle out of there own frame.. Im curious if this new SAE 300 is the same.

I want an SAE 300 bad but this new one makes me nervous.

Rc, I have the kubota. The numbers are misleading. Check my post from awhile back for details. Ted

Yep I agree I have a sa250 with the 3 cylinder Perkins and it will rattle your teeth loose from 20 yards away

Yes they will..!!!  I cant knock how they weld though.. Those old 250s will go for ever and I like how they weld but my goodness they rattle shake and sound terrible.. LOL

They are about as sexy looking as a fat mans back side too.. LOL..!!!  That doesn't help them any.
