Just bought a 530 CK for 800 mainly for parts , but once I pick it up who knows ? Engine is apart .. diesel

I have this same tractor, It is not a CK, it is a pre CK. That is why it had the front brush guard. I have the same issue with my fuel tank. I have yet to take it apart, small drip like yours, but I think your issue is the same as mine. The gasket between the fuel filter to the tank is old and leaking. Additionally, I also had the same with a full and caked fuel filter when I bought mine used. If there is as much junk in the fuel filter, you also need to check diesel pump! There is a metal mesh filter in the inlet to the pump. Mine was full of junk and was limiting flow in the tractor, ( Thank god it was that I thought at first it need a rebuild on pump) which is what you also might be having if lack of power. Mine basically would stall on loss of flow. Hope that helps.

Watching you and just shaking my head. It always helps if you understand what is supposed to come apart and how to get it apart. Them hydraulic fittings if you are not familiar will give you a fit like the ones you are trying to get apart. That's okay....when you get done I think you will have learned something

If you have a hard line fitting thats stuck, and so you have two wrenches right next to each other, you can set up so the handles are like 20° or so spread apart, 2hatever is comfy so you can get both handles in one hand grip, then squeeze the handles together, you can get a bunch of force on the fitting without flexing the line around and possibly twisting it off. Never mind, you do it later in the vid, hah. Im picking up a 69 case backhoe here in a couple days, so figured I'd go to youtube university, hah. Im a marine diesel mechanic, so motors ive got down, but havent worked on hydraulics much.
