    Gas tank puzzle

    Jon, I think that your filter base is more likely the culprit. I'm guessing that there is some kind of leak/vent action happening somewhere in the metal base that holds the filter. Now, why it has air at the bottom of the hose(?), that is a bonafide mystery. I don't have an answer for that.

    Who Lives Where?

    Home is in the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia; specifically, in Mount Sidney. Have never farmed, but think I would enjoy it. I will try to post a pic of Dad on the L, and me on the SC. Marvin Shank

    What year is this IH crawler?

    Okay, guys. Here are a few pictures of a crawler that needs help. I haven't run the thing in probably 15 years, so my memory will be just enough to get it running and loaded for transport to a shop. It was used up through last year. I'm told it's got water in oil, and maybe vice versa. Am...

    doing the firewood thing

    Loren, thanks for all the photos and explanations on your wood-cutting adventures. Sure enjoy seeing the machines put to work. I"m partial to wood heat and have a boiler going to keep us all warm as well. Am proud of my splitter since Dad designed it and gave it birth. Will have to take some...

    Diesel and frost

    Since you asked for a ratio, I'll give you one. Back 'in the day' when nothing else was readily available we would mix about 10 to 1 if it was very cold. Only mildly cold (32F down to 25F) more like 15 to 1. Whether or not it should be done is anybody's opinion.

    Backhoe Swap?

    Gentlemen, The basic question is this: Will a backhoe off of a Case 580B fit onto a Case 580C? If so, how much modification is required? The longer version; Family business has a very tired (engine) backhoe that doesn"t seem to have enough power to do much of anything (I think engine might...

    hyd oil level on SC

    Thanks, CNT, I now have what I need. And a correction: your first picture did show the right location for the 'full' level. Don't know why I got right & left transposed. Just age, probably.

    hyd oil level on SC

    CNT, It does help. It helps me realize that I should have given a little more information. I have a 1949 model that I'm guessing did not come with a 3 point hitch as it appears to be an add-on, and not what you show in your picture. Mine has a horizontal cylinder pushing aft from under the left...

    hyd oil level on SC

    Hey Guys, I need to know which plug is used to add oil to for hydraulics to work. Am trying to get the 3 point hitch to work again (had been removed). The cylinder doesn't move at all and I assume it is low on oil since it would have leaked out when the hoses were removed and replaced with...
