last year i bought an older case 580b ck. went great until it over heated. had oil or diesel in the coolant/radiator. i replaced the head gasket but continued to have the mix of oil and coolant. when replacing the filter for the trans/hydraulic (in front of the radiator) i seen one of the hydraulic hoses go to the bottom left of the radiator. is there a built in trans cooler in the radiator and if so maybe cracked radiator???
2nd problem-i changed the transmission fluid and filter (in front of radiator) and now the darn thing dont want to move. used napa premium hydraulic/trans fluid. if i put the stabilizer arms down to get the back wheels off the ground then put it in gear and let the tires rotate for awhile it will sometimes move. its like after the fluid warms up or the rotation of the wheels gets more fluid into the system. what did i do wrong? what am i missing? wrong fluid??? im ready to pull my hair out trying to figure out these two problems. did find older threads but nothing about the thing working fine until i put clean/new fluid causing the machine not to move.
