I recently changed the blown head on my Case 1840
uniloader. I am not a mechanic but I managed to put the
rebuilt head back on, adjust the valves and bleed the fuel
lines. The engine start, runs, and sound good but I must have
hooked something up wrong when I put it back together to roll
the cab back... the first few times I started it after I installed
head etc it would begin driving backwards on its own. there
was a linkage that runs with the throttle linkage that I had
installed upside down. So if flipped it around to how it
originally was and when I started the loader it didn't try to drive
backwards but it still won't go forward. the drive motors were
fine before I took things apart to slide cab forward so I doubt
there is anything wrong with them. The steering arms move
forward and backwards but the machine doesn't move. One
clue is that the steering arms won't bend to move or tilt the
bucket, they are locked. Please help me out with any info.
