Hummmmm. I've got this "Red Mech" who to my mind is just an absolute 'monster' IH mechanic. Been at it all of his 70 years. Okay, I watch him test the rear hydraulic pump on my 966. He tells me that it is just so-so and a little weak, 'cause it is only putting out 1800 psi at idle and he says it should be 2250psi. I stood there and watched him test it. So, I'm readin' in my IT manual this morning and according to it, he was actually doing a flow and pump pressure test instead of the "system relief pressure" test. IT manual says it should run 1800psi & 10gpm @ 2400rpm and should be taken at one of the remote ports (which is exactly where he was at). The manual goes further to say that the relief pressure test should measure 2000psi on the 966 (2250psi on the larger tractors), but is taken at the port right on the face of the pump body itself and that the hitch lever should be set past 'full up' to insure a "full and constant system pressure". He obviously read the manual wrong. Just keep my mouth shut? I don't wanna "correct" this guy, 'cause he really is good. Allan
