Hello, my international 574 has poor hydraulics. I'm just trying to make sure i correctly diagnose the problem before replacing the pump if needed.
My main complaint is the steering being very slow to the point of almost unusable. Curiously when i start it, the first 5 mins are much better, but then it gets worse to the point where i can basically not steer it unless i'm moving already.
The hydraulics have been quite slow for a while. If i hitch it up to my log splitter, it runs it but quite slowly. Also the lift arms are slow but its a consistent speed so i doubt its air in the system.
I have flushed the transmission fluid and replaced it all. I have also cleaned the gauze and replaced the filter etc. Fluid levels are fine
Does this sound like i need to replace the pump or are there other things i should check first?
