Ok guys i need some help. I own my granddads 574 diesel tractor and recently the clutch went out in it. I got it home and was going to fix a couple small things before i took it to the mechanic that has worked on it for 30 years. I got water in my hydraulic fluid so i drained it and while i was waiting to pick some new fluid up i was going to replace my ignition switch. After hooking up the switch i cranked it up not thinking with no hydraulic fluid i may do some damage. When i cranked up to make sure my wires were correct i heard a little grinding. I thought it was in the starter and i had some wires backwards. No sure if flywheel may have been grinding. So today after i got hy-trans back in it i cranked up and had a little smoke and after 20-30 seconds of running it locked up and cut off. WHAT HAVE I DONE?? Is there something else i could have messed up, could it be only flywheel and clutch? My mechanic knows the clutch went out but i hate to tell him i may have screwed something else up. He is going to let me have it.

Thanks for any advice. Thomas
 
Are you sure it is the clutch that failed? Does the clutch pedal feel normal? Will the engine run with the clutch disengaged?
 
I had a different mechanic to look at it and he took inspection plate off and verified it was clutch. And the clutch goes to the bottom. It would run before today but now i cant get it crank or turn over. I hoped flywheel had broken tooth or something like that that will not allow it to crank. I think mechanic said flywheel would need to be turned.

Thanks
