Gene, that stuff sounds pretty useful, I'll see if I can source it locally.

The flywheel is pretty bad. I'm going to try to find a new one. I can't 
believe all those metal filings are exposed to the inside of the engine. I 
pulled off 2 of the hand hole ports on the pan the clean out everything in 
there. Also pulled off the sump screen and pickup tube.

We're thinking about changing the front transmission seal while we are at 
it. It doesn't show any real sign of leaking, but while we are in there 
looking at it....

The parts books I have found online are not to friendly. I can't believe 
Case hadn't gone to exploded view books by the time this tractor was built.

John
