Green Case Loader

@Harry Your getting it back into shape! Be careful though, once you get it done you won’t want to sell it!

[Harry]

Yes, I know how that goes. I own 2 600 series loaders so selling this one won’t be a problem. More work than I first expected, but I can’t sell it if it doesn’t work like it should. Heres a pic of the muffler. Harry

Looks like its coming along good Harry

I’m spending more time on the GT than I wanted, but I can’t help trying to make it better for who ever I sell it too. Pulled the head today and there is a little carbon build up. Removed the generator starter and coil. Added some welds where needed and repaired a few poor ones. But I’m not going to replace them all. Drained the oil from tcv and oil lines, getting ready to remove tcv. I can see in some areas who ever built it did a good job but others they did not. I’m slowly painting over the ugly green paint with rustoleum truck bed paint. It seems to hide a lot of the ugly welds. Mostly get it operational and get rid of the puke green. Harry

Your breathing new life into this one for sure!
This is going to be a nice tractor for the new owner!

I was thinking about this generator missing a bolt last night. So I took a look when I was in the shop this morning. Sure enough a broken bolt in the bracket. Harry

I think that’s one of the better heads Harry. High compression and the dip in it to send the explosion at the spark plug over the piston to give more push on the piston and less pressure at the valves.

A little update on GT, slowly getting a few things taken care of. This is the spark plug that was in it, I’ve never seen one like this. Has anyone else seen a spark plug like this? Almost all black where it was green. I’ll accent it with some flambeau to make it look more like a Case GT. Tcv is next, it’s been so humid I wasn’t looking forward to crawling under it. Rain is on its way so shop day is in order. Harry

Looks great @Harry - Is that copper anti-seize you've put on the gasket surfaces?

It’s a copper head gasket sealer made by permatex. I usually just spray the gasket, but this time I also applied it too the head and block surfaces. Harry
