I think if the 3 pt drops when you close that valve, it means the seals in your 3 pt cylinder are leaking. If the valve is closed, the 3 pt should stay up, but if the seal on the piston leaks, it will gradually go down. The 424 originally had leather seals on that piston. If yours have never been replaced, likely they are bad. You can replace the leather with modern O rings, but that requires a new piston which from IH is expensive. On the 424 I had, the mechanic used a Mahindra piston and O rings which fit perfectly and was about half price of the IH. My 3 pt got to where it would not stay up at all, cycling all the time trying to keep position. The 3 pt cylinder is contained inside the hydraulic unit under the seat. You have to open up that unit to get to it.
