- Kubota BX24, Case 580 Super L
Y'all. My 1998 Case 580 Super L has low oil pressure at idle. From things I've found elsewhere, this seems not too uncommon, and I read about it can often be a simple fix of cleaning gunk out of the oil pressure regulator. What I haven't been able to find, however, is where exactly that is and what it looks like. I have the service manual for this backhoe and it does verify the existence of this in the description of the oil flow, but there is no mention of it in any of the servicing steps, such as simple oil changes or replacing the oil pump, etc. Is there anyone familiar with this engine (4-390) and the pictures below who can say, "See that thing there, that's what you're looking for." Before taking things apart, I want to try to make sure I'm targeting the right thing and can get any necessary gaskets I might need before disassembly.
