    Case 400 Fuel Pressure

    well I'm not much a mechanic, most of what I have learned was from this site and you tube tutorials. But I'll take a stab at a couple of your question. Ofcourse I could be wrong so don't rip on me for trying to be helpful. Smoke on start-up---diesel engine relies on combustion chamber pressure...

    More scraper pics

    I kow better, did'nt do better

    Case Nutty 1660, I probably was not patient enough after applying air pressure to the fuel tank, to wait for something to happen at the third filter bleeder plug. As you say, a full tank to the top has always worked before, it was being stubborn this time. thanks for your help gobble

    Case Tractor (1967) 830 Comfort King ...8 speed .....18.4 X 34 rear Rims/Tires Removal ???

    I am not familiar with the 830's rims. Are they double bevel like the 400? only wider? My 411 has 13.6x38 and I just use the impact to loosen and remove the clamps. I do for safety's sake chain my engine hoist to the tire and rim so it does not fall on me. gobble
