Hi, I inherited a HD4, 1968 (S/N 3552). After sitting for a couple years, we had a couple coolant hoses to replace and the starter was toast. Got it running and drove it some, engine runs great. The power cut out to the tracks a couple times intermittently. I was able to operate it for about 15 min. to get down to the road to load it on a trailer without issue. After trailering it and offloading at my place it wouldn't move, no fwd or reverse. I drained the converter fluid (both front and rear chambers). Added 4 gal. new ATF and ran to fill front chamber, but it wouldn't take the remaining 2 gal. Cleaned suction screen, replaced filter behind grill. I screwed pressure gages into the two test ports in the shuttle clutch, reading no pressure on either port. The converter pump is pumping somewhat, tried cracking a fitting when running and got some atf coming out, but not as high as I would expect. I'm thinking I need to replace the converter pump. Any other ideas of what to check before I spend the money ?
Sorry for the long post, and thanks in advance for any help!! Mike
