Hi guys, I need help with a problem on my M. I bought this tractor about 1974 and have had no major problems since but have not used it much either. It is a 1951 model and has the live hydraulic pump in front of distributor, like a 400 would I believe. The man I bought this from has passed away but he loved to tinker and probably put this pump on the tractor. He pulled a 4 row cockshutt planter with it. I have no hydraulic pressure at the outlets. I guess the old pump in belly is still there but unhooked. I have heard you can take the old pump out and just use space as a reservoir for hyd fluid. Is this true and should I do this and where should I start to look for hyd problems, could I have a hose stopped up? I thought that front pumps didn't give trouble. Help please and thanks for your help.
