Case 780
Anybody know a good place to get tires? I am in Eastern Idaho, but can travel up to Boise or Salt Lake to get it. Ran the thing for one day and BAM, flat tire. Of course it's the back one:confused2:. Experience in tubing these? It is a 21L-24. I think it is pretty standard. Anybody close that wants to part company with a decent used one? Cheapest I could find was $630 just for the tire.

Also, the machine is a late 70's Case 780. The front injector is leaking around the fitting. I tried to tighten it up and put some teflon tape on the threads. It helped some, but it is still dripping. Any other suggestions? Motor is a 336 Turbo Diesel.

Sounds like the ferrule is cracked. It might be able to be repaired if you are pretty good at brazing or silver soldering, otherwise a new line is in order. These lines are extra thick walled and carry around 3,000 psig. Order one from a dealer or get a used one. This is NOT brake line.
