I have an IH354 diesel utility tractor from the mid 70's. I am experiencing the following problem:
With an implement attached to the 3-pt. hitch the system will not maintain a constant position. If I raise the hitch it raises fine but it drops ever so slightly and jumps back up like it has hiccups. It jumps like this about every 15 seconds.
