Many years ago I bought a case 580ck loader backhoe from a local septic digger. It ran when it arrived. I tinkered with it a little (hoses and such). It usually started , mostly with starter fluid (now I am told that was a bad idea) and it spewed a lot of white smoke till it warmed up. Time went by and I could never get it started again (with all the either in the world) Someone told me maybe the fuel jelled and I sheared a pin in the fuel pump.? Now that I be semi retired the backhoe is on my bucket list. I am by no means a diesel mechanic,heck I'm not the greatest with these new fangled cars. However I was at one time a machinist, I do have tools, welders,drill press's,milling machine,lathes, and ten of everything else I haven't mentioned. I do have the original dealer service manual. Just browsing around I see rebuild services for fuel pumps and such. Course a new radiator is like $500. I guess my main question to those of you who might know is this gonna be a rabbit hole?? I paid 5k for the backhoe. My thinking is that I should somehow fidgure out if the engine is shot. It's like a 1968 model. How does one check compression on this critter. Is the case tool even available?? (#70-314 (d588) a few grand more ain't gonna kill me. Any thoughts or suggestions would be kindly appreciated. North Carolina is where I call home.

It increased the farm productivity and, in general, made life easier because more work could be done with this 'mechanical beast'. My dad dreamed that some day he would have his own tractor with every implement he could get. When he rea
