Why is my Case 570T engine overheating?

S
Sandra RiveraAug 6, 2025
If your Case Excavators engine is overheating, consider these potential causes: a faulty centrifugal pump in the cooling system (overhaul or replace it), a faulty temperature switch (replace it), a partially faulty radiator (eliminate scales by washing and repair any tube leaks), scales in coolant passage compartments (carefully wash them), slack centrifugal pump and fan drive belts (check and adjust belt tension), insufficient coolant (restore the level in the expansion tank), incorrect engine timing (check and correct it), or a restricted air filter (clean or replace the filter element).

What to do if my Case 570T Excavators engine suddenly stops?

If the engine of your Case Excavators stops, it could be due to several reasons. It may be caused by an irregular delivery of the supply pump, which requires a workbench check. Other potential causes include dirt or water accumulation in fuel lines (disconnect and clean the lines and injection pump, drying the fuel tank if necessary), restricted fuel filters (replace the filter cartridges), burned or cracked valves (replace the valves), air in the fuel system (check the lines, fittings, supply pump, filters, and injection pump for air, then bleed the system), or damaged injection pump controls (replace the damaged parts).
