I'm the proud owner of a 1961 (if I read the Ser. No. right) 560-gas. It has an IH 2000 loader. The tractor doesn't have one leak from it.
However, the loader is so slow, a little amount of noise but not alarming. If I'm lifting the boom and try and dump the bucket, the arms drop somewhat rapidly. I have to operate one function at a time, and again, slow!
Hydraulic filter (presumably all fluid as well) for for sure the past owner said 8 years ago. Seals around the PTO needed replacing then as well.
4800 hours on the tractor and seems to be working tach.
1. Can I change the hydraulic filter w/out draining all 16 (or so) gallons of fluid?
2. I'm guessing there'll be some milkiness to the fluid so should I change all of it anyway?
3. If all that doesn't change the speed of the loader and allow me to move bucket and boom at the same time, should I consider a 17 GPM pump with an extended wider filter kit?
I have a couple more questions I'll hold off on as this is step one

Well, he decided to go get Mom out of the house and have her drive the tractor while he walked behind the plow. You got to understand that while my Mom is a hard worker who will always help whenever she can... she had never operated farm machinery before that day. Dad got her out there, explained how the clutch was the same as in our o
