Case 45 hydratatic

[Shannon14]

Need help. I have a case 45d with hydrostatic drive. Recently the tractor started to bog under load. It will idle with no problem but as soon as I put it in hi or low range or try to move it will stall. Issue is very inconsistent but is getting worse. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Have you checked the fuel filter?

I did. I replaced the fuel filter and did an oil and hydro change with all filters. Turned out to be a clogged gas cap. Cleaned out all vents and ran it for an hour with no problems! Thanks for the suggestion

Had a friend that had a similar problem with his 500 hp Case/IH Steiger. Kept clogging the fuel tank vent. Took a large pair of channel lock pliers to get the cap off and when we did, it sounded like it was going to suck in anything within a 300' radius. HAHA Glad you got it fixed.
