IH 340

Engine oil has remained at full mark.

Thanks guys. We did all of the above and got pump primed and steering started working but we quickly lost it. Unfortunately I didn't check hydraulic drain plug for water and will do so before we attempt bleeding again. The oil in the filter was clean as was the filter and screen. I did not do anything to the valve in bottom of filter. After reading a few posts on 404 hydraulic filter I was happy to find the main parts were there. It was missing the 2 seals at the uppermost part of the filter assembly. We will be ordering these along with service manual. Would these two missing seals cause air issues? I'm assuming it would allow incomplete filtering to pump. Also the steering valve at the steering wheel has a steady weep. We need to address this but would this add to the priming/air issues?

so I got my 404 running after an unknown period of time but the hydraulics are not working (3pt and PS) I topped up fluid but that did nothing

there is a pretty bad mouse nest in the clutch/flywheel housing can I spray water in there?

I recently acquired an IH 404 U and at some point in the time it sat someone removed the distributor.... how do I go about retiming it?

can I put a custom front weight bracket/hitch on the front of my 340U's bolster or will it crack the bolster?

My 340 utility has a internal seal leaking behind where the TA would be it is leaking out this hole in the bottom any reason I shouldn't temporarily plug this hole until I can get it to a shop so it's not leaking on my fields it's a factory ta delete so the housing should be empty right?

I have a 504u that I am parting would the pedal off that fit my 656u?

is there a bushing in the the clutch pedal? my pedal has a lot of side to side play but I dont see a bushing for the gear drives in any diagrams?

Did I do this wrong it seems like it only pushed it in further can I cut the bearing cup? I have a replacement

Ok should I replace this seal as well

do I stick the heel bar in here?

How do I get the seal out of here for replacement?

Got it out! note to future readers if you're doing this on a 656 utility just pull the top cover and steering

Not working all it's doing is scuffing up the surface of the gear
