After about an hour or so of moving loose dirt around, my 68-71? Ford 4500 won't move (forward or reverse) as fast.
I've been careful to not over-rev it and make it worse, so I just shut it down.
After a while it (cools?) and I can resume work.
I have noted that if I let it sit a while and just run, out of gear, it also will resume, but just for a few feet so I can park it.
Today I checked the Hydraulic oil in the transmission and noted it is a milky white color... after sitting a few hours it returns to normal.
I'm guessing this is air getting into the line somehow.
So, is it overheating or is the oil becoming useless due to the amount of air in it?
And, in either case... what to do?
Thanks
