   It looks like I'm not getting anything past the pressure valve at the loader block. The line comes off the pump to the loader block and by pressure to multi-valve to 3pt. That valve is froze up, which is a part from the loader company(I think). Lesson learned – start at the beginning and work back. I made something simple alot of work. I'll let you know if I get it freed up or replaced and if it works. I guess it wasn't all for nothing I gained knowledge on the 3pt. box and how the system is routed and works. Larry.

   Ok but my block and plate is totally different than the book. The one-way valve between the two is opposite from the book. T book shows cup, spring and mine is spring and cup. I tried to put it like the book shows but the spring will go up inside the housing that way and won't even touch the cup. My main block is different than the book. The book shows on the return side parts removed from both sides but mine has no opening on one side. This is the part right above the lift valve and I couldn't get it to move. How do I get it out? Threw the side I could open and close the spring loaded valve in there so I shot with WD and blew it out with air. Larry.

  Thanks Tommy and Rich. I called Thomas and ordered everything I figured I needed, the 3pt. rebuild kit, starter selnoid, and all filters (as long as it sat I figured it would be for the best). Thomas told me some really important info I needed to know. Tommy you were right I've got a 490BT motor. The kids are coming in this weekend for the holidays. Between getting ready, the event, and aftermath probably be a week or so before I'll get to do it. Thanks and have a good holiday. Larry.

   Tommy,  Is there a filter or anything that affects the 3pt. and not the loader? Also can I pull the line off going to 3pt to makesure I have flow? I don’t see a drain plug like the parts manual shows. I went to your web site and looked at the rebuild kit (price is a lot cheaper than I thought it would be). Is there a shop manual for this tractor? I got one for my Ford and it sure makes repairs a lot easier. I’m going thru things to see if there is anything else I need, try and get it all in one shot. I finally got the electrical working. I got contact cleaner and took all conectors apart and sprayed them. Everything came on! Larry.

    I checked the knob under the seat and there wasn't a set screw. I turned the knob counterclockwise 3 more turns and it didn't make a difference. The manual shows a drain plug on the lower left, but mine doesn't have one. Do I pull the line on the lower right to drain it. It's looking more and more like I need to tear down and check O rings. Thank You Ron for the picture and Diagram, but mine is totally different. I have five fuses on the left side and 7 fuses down the middle with 3 relays on the right side. There is a slot at the top right for a relay that is blank. I don't know if there is suppose to be one there or not. My instrument cluster and lights are not working. I checked all the fuses and they are ok. I figure I'll take the multi-meter up there and start checking for power at the pin blocks. This may sound like a stupid question but how do I tell which motor I have. The manual says there is 3 different manufacturers. I have a 4 cylinder motor. Larry.
