Did you check each rivet around the mid section of the hopper? One rivet missing or broken will lose a lot of pressure. I don't remember if you replaced a fan motor or not, but they are expensive, and before you start throwing money and parts at it, I would plumb it into your tractor and if this doesn't build pressure then you may have a bad motor. You just put a hydraulic fitting onto the hose that would normally plumb into the pump and run a hose to your tractor. Hook it to the top hydraulic outlet and put your lever back to run the fan. The return hose needs to be run to below oil level on your tractors rear end. If you are not planting a lot of acres you can get by running it off of your tractor, yes you have to stop the fan at the end rows, lift up your planter, start your fan and then lower your planter about ten feet sooner when you start down the row so the drum fills when you get to the end of the headland. Planted 200 acres a year this way for 10 years with a worn out 1466 IH, it works. I had more time than money at the time. I plumbed the return hose into the drain plug with a right angle pipe fitting on the mid section of the rear end of the tractor with a breakaway plug in at the rear. If your 1586 has a white side shield it is more than likely an open center, if it is a late model with the red side shield, chances are it has the closed center system, which would have more hydralalic flow and you probably wouldn't have to shut the fan off on the end rows. All my IH"s are open center systems. I have a JD 7200 now and it is a nice planter but I beleive the 800's have better disk penetration in no till because one blade leads the other blade and cuts into the soil better, my observation. I also liked the old cyclo's for clean out when switching varieties.
