with the tractor OFF put the pto lever in the engaged position either speed is ok ,then go and try turning the pto shaft, if it does not turn that is good. then put the pto lever in the disengaged position and then the pto shaft should spin freely. I guess you should try it in each pto speed on second thought just to be sure. And there is no direct connection as far a fluid goes it is just from the current flow of the hydros for the 3 point that causes this. usually mine as the fluid heats up and thins this pto rotation goes away or slows a lot.
is there a 3 point implement connected to the 3 point? I think a lot of these tractors the pto will spin due to the flow of oil. so put something on it and have the pto disengaged and then see if it spins, then you will know for sure if there is a problem.
I guess you will not see this but just in case you do , I am saying that this site is loosing a huge wealth in info. with your leaving. IMO
I found on ebay a small housing 3/4 inch in and out rated at 15 gpm 25 micron 33 bucks went with that can not hurt ,bottom in reservoir tank not to bad but not to good either and hoses are 50 years old, so this should catch the trash.
it uses the same pressure plate bearing and clutch disc as a farmall cub and a 3 speed trans one version uses 2 trans back to back that make them 9 speed. I think I will pull the hydro tank and look at the bottom for sludge.
when you check the filter make sure you get a good flow from the tank there is a screen (that can get plugged) above the shut off valve in the tank on most. I think in some way you are running lean.
Bob I was given a economy power king tractor it has a hydro lift , a external pump that runs off the engine via belt , it uses a 2 way cylinder with about 1 gal oil(ATF fluid) reservoir. It has no filter , it is a 1975 and seems to work well . Should I add a filter or just leave it alone? I was kinda thinking if I use it more that it has been(which is not much) stuff might start to loosen up and start to move threw the system. Take a WAG.
people have extended the breather tubes so the correct level of fluid can be maintained and oil not being lost, I believe it has been done by just attaching tube to the rops with brass wool in the end as a filter vent.
