    Case 1450 loader transmission check

    I'm just guessing here, but all of mine: Deere455g, cat d4c, d8H 46a, all say check transmission warmed up, with engine running at low idle. Sometimes they say on dipstick and have marks on both sides of dipstick, engine running, engine off.

    New to me D6C - have some issues

    Drain the engine oil asap and refill with new oil. Antifreeze etches main and rod bearings. Do it even if your not planning on running it.

    Cat d8h parts search

    Got fuel transfer pump replaced today and have full pressure at full throttle now. Was pretty easy to repair, only 4 9/16" bolts and the fuel supply line. If you have rubber compression fittings inside your supply line, the part # is 4H-2662. Have a question about 2 open ports on the new fuel...

    Got the 2 center edges off today, used my 1" air gun. Did not have to cut a single nut, never had that happen before. Did however have to trim the inside edges of the end bits with the gas axe. Is that normally how it's done? I never had to trim cutting edges before either. I'm thinking a...

    Please specify which 2 bolts. Is the bypass valve inside the fuel pump? Is it the 2 bolts on the side of the pump in my pics?

    I heard no mumbling. I've been working 7 days/week so I probably uttered some mumbling lol. I picked the $364 transfer pump on ebay, pn matches what cat dealer gave me, 2564756. I suppose I need a gasket as well. Thanks for the help.

    544C travel speed uphill

    I have a 1985 Case w20C with allison ttx21 transmission. Owned it 17 years. It's always been slow when uphill is involved. I have reverse one speed, and foward 2 speeds. Low foward is a sprag clutch and is slow but very forgiving. Reverse is a gear and pressured clutch and is faster than...

    1985 Case 1155D engine removal

    We did a complete engine in our Case W20C in 2005. 504BD engine, no turbo, 108hp. Someone had been in it before, and left out some spacers that locate the crank fore/aft in the block. The block was scored, crank ruined, and connecting rods ruin. It ran perfect and only had a small tick at...

    Thank you for the advice. I'm slowing working my way thru this tractor. Working on a septic system install, too hot to go mess with D8 after that.

    Cat d8h parts search

    I bought a water pump for my D4c about 10 years ago from cat, think it was $400. Replaced one on my 455G crawler, it's the earlier version with belts instead of serpentine, it was $800. If it were the later serpentine version cost would have been less than $250. Go figure.

    I ordered 2 4T6531 center cutting edges and bolt/nuts today from Warren Cat. I do agree with you get what you pay for, and I always liked cat's bolts and nuts better. The 4T6513 are just barely shorter in length than the 4T3418 edges. Hoping the shorter overall length will allow me to leave...

    Got my gauges all replaced and throttle knob installed today. Beginning to consider welding peices into the broken center edges or just replacing the 2 center cutting edges.
