Help! I just bought a 1974 IH 574 diesel from a local man I was already aquainted with. The lift arms went up normally with nothing attached. I went to till a few acres for my neighbor the other day, and after I hooked up his tiller, the lift would not work. (I tilled anyway) Got a hold of the guy I bought it from, and he says that he had recently used the tractor with a 7' bush hog without a problem. O-K, my 1st reaction is to try changing the filter and cleaning the screen (just hoping it's not a bad pump!), which I will do soon. I've also heard that the disintegration of the parking brake can cause the hydraulics to get clogged on these tractors (and my parking brake seems to be disintegrated)- so I'm curious: Any way to determine if that's the problem? And if so, how do I clean the crud out? Any other suggestions for troubleshooting the problem would be greatly appreciated. Also, if the tractor needs a pump, how hard is it to replace? Would I need to split the tractor?
