Does anyone have any good reference pictures for miniart bulldozer. I’m looking for good pictures of the engine wiring for the spark plugs.

Look up: Caterpillar D7 engine. I think this is what the Miniart bulldozers are.

Thanks Frenchy !
I was wondering what kit to start next. Now I know, MiniArt's Dozer with the angled blade.
Hope things are good for you & yours !

Not really an option when you have roughly 5000+ photos already posted. Bur great for any new photos!

I can see why Wanamaker asked for good images of wiring & other plumbing. There is lots of fittings, plugs and other things going on.
I started my dozer yesterday. 3 hours on the motor and I'm only to step 5 of 18 steps ! 105 parts, give or take, some are VERY tiny with thick attachment points so a lot of careful clean up. There are EVEN individual spark or glow plugs ?!
Also, the plastic seems a bit brittle, lost a couple of parts that shattered so scratched those. A kit with in a kit!
This engine will look awesome if I'm up to the task of doing all the plumbing !
