Another update. After changing the coil, plugs, plug wires, points, condenser, and R&R the carb, I was able to run around the pasture up and down hill moving a few bales with no bog downs. Happy days I hope. In fact, this summer I had dug a 4 foot deep hole and placed a 9" diameter section of old telephone pole in there for a snubbing post to tie my mustangs to(one that they can't pull over). Anyway I went driving up the corral in the dark with a bale on the front slow in low gear while getting ready to set the bale down. I forgot about the post and about the time I looked to where I thought it should be, I heard a crack and the motor didn't hardly pull down at all in breaking that post off. The pole had a bad place on it about ground level but I thought it should have stalled out the tractor a little.
Thanks to all for your help.
Anyway now I can concentrate on fixing the hydraulics and the steering. I've been riding it around without a seat cause I'm trying to take that plate off under the seat to trouble shoot the hydraulics. There is one bolt head left that was so messed up I can't get vise grips to hold. I'm just waiting to take a welder out there or maybe more easily just take the torch and braze a nut to it. Once that cover is off, then I'll start a new thread about what to look for and where is the psi relief valve in there that could possibly be plugged up.

Today's Featured Article - Upgrading an Oliver Super 55 Electrical System - by Dennis Hawkins. My old Oliver Super 55 has been just sitting and rusting for several years now. I really hate to see a good tractor being treated that way, but not being able to start it without a 30 minute point filing ritual every time contributed to its demise. If it would just start when I turn the key, then I would use it more often. In addition to a bad case of old age, most of the tractor's original electrical system was simply too unreliable to keep. The main focus of this page is to show how I upgr
