    Starting system on 1965 Case 450 Dozer

    Should I hear a click from that starter relay when start button is pushed? I hear a click loud and clear from the heater relay.

    Starting system on 1965 Case 450 Dozer

    I went to start my old dozer the other day and the battery was so low that the starter could barely turn the Diesel engine over a couple of revs. I put the battery charger on overnight and tried the next day. I push the starter button and nothing happens. I have tried a different battery and...

    Case 450D Starts but will not move.

    When I was in at the Case Dealer, I asked the service manager if they could look at and bench test the pump and they said no. They said that it had to be hooked up and tested on the machine in order to do a flow test. When AJ pointed out the the pump was close coupled to the engine, it got...

    Case 450D Starts but will not move.

    I have not done the drain and fill or check the relief valves yet. I need a larger socket than I have, so will have to track one down. Checked for leaks with WD40 and saw no evidence of leaking. However, I found that the rubber coupler between trans and pipe to transmission cooler was loose...

    Dennis, what do you mean by pressure regulators and where are they?

    Case 450D Starts but will not move.

    AJ you're a smart dude. I felt under the block and found two, 1 inch or so caps. I then was able to find them in my parts book. Can they be removed from above or do I have to drop the converter pan and get to them from below? Same with the bottom hose on converter? Should I have new copper...

    Case 450D Starts but will not move.

    I bought my 450 in 1994 and was many times down to Western on West Valley for parts. The place is still there but is called Sonsray. I called into the repair desk a few days ago and talked to someone. The guy was not aware that Case still had TCH oil. He did not seem very helpful. I think...

    Case 450D Starts but will not move.

    When I drain the oil out of the transmission, do I also have to drain the converter? I have not found a location of a drain plug on the converter, do I disconnect a hose? Does all the oil have to come out or just most of it? ie: drain hoses etc. I do have a parts and service manual. I...

    Case 450D Starts but will not move.

    First of all, a big thanks to AJ, Dennis and BT for taking the time to try and educate this novice. Update from this morning to see if this adds any light to my problem. This morning it was in the 40's and when I started the dozer. I only let it warm up maybe 30 seconds and then into...

    Case 450D Starts but will not move.

    The brakes have not worked the 27 years that I have owned it.So I don't think that is the problem. How would I check if it is clutch packs or slipping torque converter? Thanks Dennis. I am in Kent, do you know of any mobile mechanics in the area that have knowledge in old stuff?

    Case 450D Starts but will not move.

    The gear between the flywheel and TC. Later models changed to a flex plate, but mine has a fiber gear about 10 outside and 9 inside diameter and about 1 thick. Thinking gear is OK. Any ideas on Testing torque converter?

    Case 450D Starts but will not move.

    Changed transmission filter and I think it was the suction strainer.(It is mounted right at the firewall on the right side of dozer.) During the first few minutes after start up, dozer will move forward and backward, but as soon as there is a load driveline stops moving. Then I cannot get it to...

    Case 450D Starts but will not move.

    I have an early 1965 Case 450D that will not move. A little background for context of what was going on when this happened. I was using the dozer when I threw a track. A couple of days later I had a mechanic from Pape come onsite to help me put the track back on. During the process of...

    Case 450 torque converter ring gear

    Thanks for the idea of the flex plate. I had thought about something along that line, but so far I have not been able to find anyone with information if that would work and what parts I would need,

    Case 450 torque converter ring gear

    Thank you for the lead of Precision Industries. I will check that out. I think shipping from Seattle would be another $500, ouch!! I seem to be running out of options if I want my dozer to run again.
