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.

I really hate to see a good tractor being treated that way, but not being able to start it without a 30 minute point filing ritual every time contributed to its demise. If it would just start when I turn the key, then I would use it more often. In addition to a bad case of old age, most of the tractor's original electrical system was simply too unreliable to keep. The main focus of this page is to show how I upgr
