On this tractor we lost steering and brakes not knowing much about this model we went to the dealer and talked to the young mechanic.
Wh0t he said did not make much sense but when got back we put on the new filter and nothing then added 2 gallons of oil, it on the add 1 gallon mark. Can"t believe but by over filling the darn thing it all worked like new. The mechanic said he ran into this before and over filling always solved the problem. makes one wonder doesn"t it.

PS how does one brake the tranny cover where the 3 point connects. cracked right down the middle from top to bottom. Tried some JB weld but it won"t hold it.
 
There is a o-ring in the suction passage between the filter and the pump. Its located between the TA section and the rear transmission housing above the oil level. This o-ring breaks down and allows air to suck in. When you overfill by a few gallons this o-ring is under the oil level thus preventing air from being sucked in.
