I'm semi mechanical and have learned the hard way in my younger years to be careful and not rush things and get expert advice on here first. Im using it on my...

    Also I'm not able to attach a photo. I've been a member for about a year and have had a few posts. Maybe I'm doing something wrong

    Case 580k fuel pump.

    It does have the shut off bar I think and I will look for the spring code. Attached is a photo of the leak. It's blasting out a there pretty hard. You can see it just pushed the gasket out Maybe I do have a plugged filter? I've never had any fuel starvation though.

    Case 580k brakes

    Jeez ya I went out after I made the post and found it. Felt kinda stupid. I hear alot about wet brakes and I just assumed there wasn't the normal master cylinder. Now I have a good left pedal but the right I have to pump 4 or 5 times so I gotta find the bleeder. Hopefully that's it and I don't...

    Case 580k brakes
