My excavator would idle great for long periods without issues but then intermittently bog down under a small load that was well within it's capacity.

Looked everywhere for fuel related issues and finally found the plugged up screen. Forums talk about one inline strainer but my machine had two. one at the lift pump inlet and the other at the water separator. no one talks about the water separator screen.

Cleaned the screen and big issues went away.
