hey all, I purchased a 1967 580 ck backhoe with some neglect issues primarily a stuck clutch. the previous owner had inherited the beast stuck clutch and all and had made no attempts to free up. it was move-able by rocking it with the shuttle easy back and forth then dropping revs and slipping into gear. however i am a needy sort of person and decided to free the clutch. i could see through the sight hole on the rt side of the bell housing that it is a dry clutch and it has a significant amount of pad.the pressure plate moves so mechanically speaking i had two options to free the disk. 1 try to pry it free with a long putty knife probably what i should have done, or put it up on the riggers in 2nd gear and break free by dropping on to the spinning wheels. So opting for the latter and only doing it once mind you. I now have no movement in any gear or shuttle position. to get back to the seemingly quick fix, the engine stalled there was no loud bang or movement of the shuttle lever or shift stick. i did have the clutch pedal blocked in a depressed position and to my knowledge the disk is still stuck to the flywheel. I have all the manuals parts,service and owners. if anyone has any experience with that mouthful I would be gratefuland thanks for letting me bend your ear.

Unless you are from another planet, physically or otherwise, I don’t think our internal combustion buddies will talk and tell us their problems. But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
