570 bleed screws?

farmboyWI · Nov 18, 2012

570 diesel, last year of production (I was told). Hasn’t run in a good while. An attempt was made to start it with the fuel that was in it (not by me), but it wouldn’t even pop, no smoke either. Pretty simple, fuel line from tank to filters was plugged, so I blew it out and drained some pretty sour diesel. Replaced the filters and am ready to run some fuel in, but want to know where the bleed screws are on the injector pump. On a side note, this tractor has factory spin-on fuel filters. When I went to our local dealer (who can’t find their a**es with both hands tied behind their back), they told me that there wasn’t even an update kit for them and that 570’s only had the cartridge type as far as they knew. Went to our more reliable dealer and was told the same thing! Got the part #’s off the original filters for them and they said that matches up to the pre-Cummins 188 in the 1835 skid-steers. So, anyone else have a 570 with the spin-ons?

go to a napa store and match up the filters ,loosen a couple ingector lines on the pump and crank the engine over ,some air bubles will come thru ,when mostly fuel ,titen them down , it should start.. as far as old fuel ,it could be 40 yrs old and still be good , but if you have doubts, draw it out and put in new fuel ,,make sure the sump drain on the tank will drain ,there is always water there ,almost every diesel i ever aquired , there was no indication that the prevous owner ever bothered to drain thewater trap ,had to take a wire and wiggle it thru there and get the crud out ... i drain the water trap once a weeek on my daily runners ,.
