3 ohms is what I read in his description , I think .3 ohms would be to little amount for a resistive heater coil , would lead me to think a internal short. But 3 ohms is what he wrote earlier.
there should be a knob or hand wheel near the seat that controls the amount of falling speed on the three pt. system. lightly snug it up and back it off a few turns , maybe you will get lucky.
that looks like it will work, I think your tractor and mine are similar in fluid layout. One thing engine oil is the most important to replace as long as the other systems are kept water free .
if I was going to use hydro oil where gear oil is required, universal is what I would use. It is a heavier weight so the oil surface on the gears should hold better. And if used in cold temps would make it flow easier except in the power steering still a bit heavy there. But if mostly used in hot locations it would be ok in the power steering but to thin everywhere else. Let me state this if the tractor is pulling a load like a plow or bog harrow use the correct oil for each sump. It does not take that many hours with the incorrect lube it mess things up when loaded.
I have a 2006 ft504a and I use 80/ 90 wt.. in transmission and front axle. aw 46 in power steering and hydros / rear end reservoir ,universal tractor in winter is to heavy to run in my power steering in the machine. In summer it is ok to use if I blow a hose and need to get it back to the barn but I go with the thinner wt.46
that is something , it shows if you keep something long enough you can find a use for it ,,it just how long are you willing to ask yourself what do I have that still for?
I think your best bet is to contact a dealer and see if they can help you out. They work on these everyday or close anyway. The only suggestion I have is to take a ohm meter and ground one lead and with the other lead search for a zero or very close ohm reading and then trace it back to confirm that it is a real ground source. There is a possibility that the base of whatever you are looking at is grounded thru the chassis and all that is in the dash is the hot side , not requiring a ground there. But there will be a ground for the dash lights maybe you can figure it out from there. good luck
did you check the pick up on the flywheel , make sure it is clean and I think turn it in till it just touches then back it out about 1 turn
