Got my 1st "old" case tractor last week - a Case C. Our smaller tractors have all been Farmalls, but thought I'd try a Case - after running 30 and 70 series for years and knowing how much better they were than the IH's we have, I figured I'd try one out to see if the older cases were better too :)

It needs a new block which I have - trying to get the front cover, etc. off of it. Got the head and radiator off okay, but now I'm running into trouble - a little different than the IH M.

How do you remove the front pulley, clutch assembly, and water pump? Does the oil pressure "thingy" screw out - if not how do you remove it?

Any other little things that you guys with experience with these things know I'll have trouble with as I get tearing into it further?

THANKS!!

Mshultz, I think you are talking about the oil pressure indicator, as stated elswhere. To take it off you have to unhook the copper tubing (oil line)from the inside, through the inspection plates or take the oil pan off, then the cast iron part screws out of the block counter clockwise, use a crescent wrench or something to get it started.

First thing... about removeing the water pump. DO NOT GET IN A BIG HURRY. The water pump on a C-Series is notorious for being a booger to come out. The tendancy is to break the ears off trying to pull it out. The key to it is slow gentle pressure, with a little heat around the opening in the block.

And can you be a bit more descriptive on the "oil pressure thingy" that you are referring to?

I'd also advise you getting a service manual / I&T manual. If you can't find one for the C-Series, you can use the one for the D-Series (Like the Case DC) The engines are pretty much the same, and can help answer a lot of questions.

What year is your tractor?

I'm guessing the "oil pressure thingy" is the piece that comes out the left front of the block that looks something like a metal dowel on a spring - been told that it tells you when there is oil pressure there, just not how much???

I just got the parts book and IT book in the mail last night, so I'm learning a little about it as I read.

The guy I bought it from says it was a 1929, but I haven't checked yet. Has spoked wheels on rubber, but not original rims. Fan belt is a V-belt which the way I read the parts manual would make it newer, but could have easily been replaced in the past.

Definetly not an M, but doesn't look too bad - just have to get familiar with how things fit together and come a part. Plan to do a lot of learning in the next few weeks!

Thanks for your reply.

If you have an opportunity, can you email me some pictures. Maybe I can help answer a few questions if I had visuals to go by...

Have you been able to locate a serial number? It is located on the tag riveted to the tool box, or it is stamped on the mag side of the block. If you are looking at that side, it will be toward the fuel tank, on a machined spot right where the block and head come together. It will probably be a six digit serial number (C ######) Take the first and fourth numbers, put them together and subtract 3. That will give you the year. (C300916 39 - 3 = 36 1936)

If your tractor has a V-Belt fan pulley, it can't be a 1929. Tractors from that year used a flat belt pulley.

My email is open. Send me some pics, and if I can help anymore, let me know.
