    Case 580C Backhoe Starting Issue

    Thanks guys for hopping in and clarifying the cube relay deal, a much better descriptive term, the wiring diagram of the socket wiring should clear it right up for him. I know this probably does not apply here but battery box ground cables are an issue on some Case Hoes so if I were him, Id...

    Case 580C Backhoe Starting Issue

    The NS switch is on the RH side of the power shuttle opposite the shift linkage side, the fact that you have 7 V at the starter prove it is working, you could probably go to heavier wire to try it out but you will be doing what I have done. many times over, these machines were my life for 50...

    Case 580C Backhoe Starting Issue

    That is a common problem, you need to add an intermediate solenoid to activate the main started solenoid, you can pick up a Bosch relay and socket at NAPA, the wiring is not heavy enough to kick in the starter solenoid in the gear reduction starters, I have installed dozens over my work career...

    1370 hydraulic problems, need help

    I would have a flow test done on it, if you lost steering the 8 GPM pump section may have failed, the 8 GPM circuit return oil works the reverse lockout piston which has channels that control the powershift clutches. if you have a low-pressure gauge you can check lube pressure on the powershift...

    1966 Case 930 CK timing marks

    If you got it to 30-32 deg you would never know the difference if at 31. When I put Turbos on 830s i Bump the timing out to 35 and give it a few more RPMs . The downside is harder cold starting but it wakes em up HP wise.

    Has Anyone Posted this? (1030 504 swap)

    John, I, looked at that also, I believe what we are seeing is a valve hooked to the steering wheel shaft that directs oil to the cylinders, if you look the valve is sitting at an angle that does not match the crank centerline. While I applaud the thought and workmanship of the project, I agree...

    Transmission oil level

    I spent my life in a Case shop, if you walked up to a Case power shuttle cold, not run, it could be an inch over full from converter drainback, I always ran them and then checked the oil level, I will explain why and you can do with it what you will. if you run the engine, in 4th gear for...

    G188D engine performance

    When I was in the shop, we always had a rebuild in stock and always had our rebuilds set up to 450 crawler specs, I never had a complaint about a customer saying his tractor had to much power. If you want to stay ag specs then 630 COM pump specs would be good also.

    DC at the scrap yard

    Mike, I do not know what that right lever is but the other pic shows the LH standard lever like my old 48, there is an extra lever but I do not know its function, the brake housings themselves are the style used for many years between the early bands and th late DC double discs, Bar avles are...

    DC at the scrap yard

    Don't know what you guys think but I believe that is a rear from a later year, the brakes are the newer style as the old DCS had a band style brake with a hand brake and the clutch on my 39 is on the RH side and originally pulled back before being changed. Case parts site has pics of the band...

    G188D case engine

    Once the internal marks are aligned with the pointer put the cover on and forget trying to get them aligned at TC pointer on damper. once the pushrods are both loose on #1 TDC, set the EXTERNAL pointer at 8 degrees BTDC and turn the pump till the internal marks are aligned. You are worrying to...

    G188D case engine

    line both the gear marks with the pointer , forget about the TDC marks on the front pulley at this point, as long as the internal timing is good you can do the pump timing after the engine is buttoned up. I have never seen a B without flywheel timing marks, if it a TC power shuttle there is a...

    Case 580B Stearing and Brake Puzzle

    IIrc the tube type cylinder was the original design and the smooth ones came later, the cylinders are not difficult to rebuild, I cant speak for the quality of the aftermarket cylinders, your description would not be a surprise to find a piston completely off the rod, I have see this and the...
