I can tell ya this , that once you get contaminated hyd. oil through out the system HUSTON you have a problem . SOOOoooo lets start by draining ALL the system and pull all FIVE plugs under the tractor and let it drip dry out . I am talking the three under the speed range and rear end and the ones under the finals . Replace the filter and refill . Then ya start the tractor and up under the left ft. down below the left frame rail crack the steering lines and let them flush out till ya have clear clean oil. Then top off to level and then add five over . Is this a cureall Nope not in the least bit , it is a bandaid . Ya got to remember that this tractor has had extensive field testing over the years and is going to need some serious work. A new MCV pump and a MCV rebuilt with new spring kit will help , then there is that pesty O/Ring , yea that maybe leaking but what about the one on the suction tube in the pickup. Keep in mind that they are getting old and they work as about as well as i do in COLD weather . The best thing for a tractor that is used each and everyday for short periods of time is keep them in a warm shed . If you are like we are in the winter the tractor gets run for a short time then it is shut off and put in a COLD shed , this is why you build moisture and have problems . Your problem is probably iceing in the filter and shutting off oil flow to the MCV and this is causing the pressure drop to the steering and T/A . It would not take much of a shed to keep one or two tractors in and keep heat on them at around 60 degrees.

Up till then, this tractor had been running a corn grinder and pulling a trailer. It had new unfilled rear tires and no wheel weights. The garden was already sprouting when we hooked up the mid-mount shovel cultivators to the Pony. The seed bed was soft enough that the rear end would spin and slowly work its way to the downhill side of the gardens slight incline. From this, we learned our lesson sinc
