Do you have a service manual for your tractor. That should explain the function of the bar. I got a 276d manual form Hoye. Sounds like the pump circuit for the powershift clutches is leaking internally causing low pressure at the powershift clutch.

Since the problem started after the split, I would guess it has to do with the regular clutch not engaging fully. do you still have proper clutch pedal free travel, (1/2-3/4")?

To test main clutch. Engage the pto with some inplemdnt that will load it lite a rotory cutter. (spinn up will load pto) When the clutch is released if the pto engages normally the main clutch is ok. and the problem is with the powershift. If the Pto does not load the engine them you have a problem with the main clutch.

I don't have any PTO implements to try, but wouldn't the main clutch slip more as you give it more fuel? IF you give it more fuel the tractor starts to go slowly for a sec then you can feel it lock up if you start up a hill you can feel it unlock and it will slow down and stop. I just took off bell housing put it back.no probs before what the *&^%$

Is the power shift control onthe column of on the hump between the foot rests. Maybe the linkage is not locking up.

All linkages are good. I just don't understand. I took off bell-h. didn't mess with clutch,or anything with powershift. I did make gasket for back of housing where it joins trans.Could small debri get in small holes on trans side. It looks like valve body. I'm fairly picky & careful working on things,Thats why this is making me crazy.I,m gonna replace shift springs&see what happens.Iwon,t give up!

Charlesall,

It sounds like the T/O bearing retainer may be binding on the shaft or a spring has broken or come off. On many models you can unbolt and lift the steering box, shaft and steering wheel, and expose the area. You can operate the clutch pedal by hand and view the travel...and sometimes reconnect an unhooked spring. It is better than splitting the tractor again.

Where did you weld the bell housing? Is it near any machined or mating surfaces to engine? Good luck,

Mark
