My first thought would be to run away....unless you are a glutton for punishment and want a big job ahead of you.. Those powershifts are very labor intensive when it comes to repairs...as well as expensive parts wise... Engine has to come out ..as well as the seat/top cover assembly.Then a clutch pack assembly comes out the front, and a clutch and brake pack assembly comes out the top. There are numerous clutch packs that can leak, resulting in worn "fiber" discs and steel plates...and several planetary gear sets that can detonate, resulting in an empty wallet. Then when it is up and running, you have a titanic of a backhoe that digs well, but is not very user friendly as a loader. Being that old, its a 510..not a 510C
