- ford 3000,case SI..Just purchased a 404 Futon (40 hp 4wd) with a koyker FEL
I have a ford 3000 with a Allied FEL....My problem is thusly...The return hyd lines on the loader constantly pulsate...I was haveing also a problem if the 3pt was raised the loader would operate very slowley or pulsate (trying to raise when lowering or trying to lower while raiseing)...by dropping the 3pt to the lowered position seemed to fix the problem...somewhat....while useing the 3pt to auger some posts the 3pt would not raise..( there would be pressure on the lever when you tried to raise the 3pt...)....If the motor was turned off...went and had a cold one ...then restarted motor the 3pt would raise normaly...for a while then would build up pressure again???I have changed hyd oil and replaced with Ford hyd/p.s hyd oil....still the same. now the 3pt raises very slowley or not at all???..remover a mebe 6" round cover on the left in line with the seat and looked in side...noticed a 1/2" line that seemed to have been brazed for some reason or other.This problem has persisted since I bought the 3000....Sorry for the lenghty post but i`m at wits ends..book says something about a hyd filter,but states that 3pt has to be removed to access it...would appreciate any and all imputs about my delima..hate to haul it to New Holland as it could be more than the tractor is worth to repair...thanks again Sid
