So I finally worked out a deal on an 83 Case 580D Super D, and have it at my house. I used it for a couple hours the other night, and want to get into some repairs. First is the fluids and filters. Whats the best way to get filters? I have the manuals, and see the Case part numbers. I'm going to try find a local case dealer, but I'm wondering if a parts store like Napa can cross reference them. I plan to change the following:
Engine oil and filters
Fuel filter
Hydraulic filter
Air filter
Are there any other filters/fluids that should be changed?
Secondly, only the oil pressure and volt meter gages work. I want to get them all working, especially the engine temp and hydraulic fluid temp. Does anyone know if these gages have sending units, or are they mechanical type? I found part numbers for the gages in the manual, but could find where they tap in to the systems. The rpm and hourmeter dont work, either.
Any input is appreciated
Thanks
Eric
