ok guys, im looking for someone that is an old experienced tech with the 190's or someone maybe that has had the same trouble that I am having.
the 3 point on this tractor would not go back down without holding the lever with a pitch fork and jumping up and down on the arms. I have bought a manual and studied the thing front to back. after looking the tractor over good I found that one of the levers that goes to traction booster and depth control was froze up where it pivots on the shaft that is on the floor frame of the tractor just inside the right rear fender. I looked up the part and found it had changed from the original design, got online and found a nos part. picked it up for 14 buck and put it on. freed up all the linkage and lubricated it. checked the traction booster valve to make sure it was free, it moves freely. refilled the tractor with fluid since I done a complete hydraulic and trans service on it, and fired it up. tested the 3 point, it went up great. not so good down. I pushed the lever with the pitchfork and stood on the arms again. it would go down but still really slow. kill the engine and push the lever and they go down pretty easy. at least better than with engine running. does anyone have any idea what is going on here? ask more questions if you want. Im all ears. ps, I am an experienced construction equipment mechanic, just lack experience on Allis Chalmers. thanks in advance guys
