Nice!
I used to have a 313. These are tiny tiny diesel bobcats. Mine would fit through a gate!
To relay what others have said. Hydraulics can go bad. Mine were fine except the seals on the bucket cylinder would leak.
The good thing about hydraulic components is that usually the unit you have on hand can be repaired. The replacement costs are high but if there is an issue with a component you can often just have it rebuilt for quite a bit less.
The gas engine skid steers are tough tough tough to sell. Honestly when I was looking the diesel ones would go in days and the gas ones were for sale all spring and summer.
Consider repowering with a Lombardini diesel engine instead of rebuilding the gasser. Your call but if it goes diesel it will draw tons more attention when you need to get rid of it and you'll be able to work it at close to idle RPM.
