Case 580b backhoe won't go forward or reverse...

jeudi 23 octobre 2014

I just purchased a 1971 Case 580B backhoe/loader from an old farmer who said that it won't move forward or reverse until it's warmed up. I got the thing home and ran it for a good 30-45 min and it seemed like it wanted to move in 2nd gear but just wouldn't go. The shuttle lever on the column almost seems like it just drifts between F and R if that makes any sense. I really had to push it to get it far enough up or down in order to somewhat lock it into place. The tranny temp was just in the green and as soon as I put it in gear, the temp gauge would just dump back to almost nothing. The previous owner seemed to think it is a problem with the pickup tube/screen...? Should I let the thing run even longer and then check? I've also heard about a filter in front of the radiator housing that might be bad... I literally rolled it off the trailer and then messed with the bucket/backhoe for 30 min. I haven't been able to dive into the tractor at all. I am just scared that something big is wrong, like the clutch or tranny itself is bad... Please help.. Phil, where you at? I know these are your specialty...
