Ok thanks for the reply. I took it to the authorized MF AGCO dealer, and i have heard that the guy that worked on it is good with older Masseys.....
pretty much When i took it in i thought that the either that filter was clogged or the pump was bad. I pulled the lift cover planning to change the filter but it is one of those that you have to split to get to the filter... so i decided, being that i had hay that needed to be made and i was in a bit of a hurry, that i would just trailer it down to the dealer and get them to fix it quick... well that didnt happen... it was in the shop 2 weeks! They replaced the filter and some o rings on the stand pipe, but they didnt have to replace the main pump. They said the problem was that 3 of the 4 bolts that hold the pump together were sheered of and it was losing pressure there, but the pump was ok. they just replaced those bolts. (expensive bolts i guess!) anyway when i picked it up the service guy told me the price ball park would be approx 2500 i haven gotten the actual bill. but i will post the cost break down when i get it. One thing they did is replaced the aux pump that runs the IPTO cause it was in poor condition. but that was only 800....
anyways i'll get back with the exact cost breakdown.
Thanks for the info so far!

Today's Featured Article - Oil Bath Air Filters - by Chris Pratt. Some of us grew up thinking that an air filter was a paper thing that allowed air to pass while trapping dirt particles of a particles of a certain size. What a surprise to open up your first old tractor's air filter case and find a can that appears to be filled with the scrap metal swept from around a machine shop metal lathe. To top that off, you have a cup with oil in it ("why would you want to lubricate your carburetor?"). On closer examination (and some reading in a AC D-14 service manual), I found out that this is a pretty ingenious method of cleaning the air in the tractor's intake tract.
