The pto turns real slow when engaged and you can stop it easily with your shoe. Fill the little reservoir ahead of the radiator, drive a couple of miles and the steering and 3 point quits working. Fill it again and do another couple of miles. Tractor runs great. Thanks, Rustidiot [Reply]   [No Email]

The slipping clutch could be contributing to weak hyd's. How long since hyd oil filter was changed & sump screen checked/cleaned? Look inside hyd filler hole in MSD's photo with engine running,3pt raised for spraying oil. Those type JD tractors have a history of the RS valves seal leaking causing hyd problems.

You check the level on the right side floor board. Should be a 1" cap you can unscrew and it will have a dipstick attached. The tank in the front will stay full when the rest of the system is full.
