IH 986 Hydraulic Filter Change

Today I’m changing the hydraulic oil filter on an IH 986. This is the step by step to change the filter. This will also apply to all International tractors from the 706-1586

[@GlynRobinson]

Always enjoy watching your videos.

[@PAFarms]

Thanks, I appreciate it. I have been fighting off trolls lately. I never wanted my channel to get too big.

[@GlynRobinson]

PA Farms you do a great job. Tons of great information.

[@mftech1607]

Very simple. That's what we like!!

[@PAFarms]

Yea not a bad job at all

[@themuskogeebrother2375]

this is the only video I could find showing the dipstick and the fill port for the hydraulic system on an international harvester tractor. A good find, but very disturbing not to find this info elsewhere.

[@BillyBob-fd5ht]

Toyota like that keep it simple they make the same part for a lot of vehicles.

[@judeschrift9655]

Is this similar in a 686? My 3 pt lift is being sluggish want to start with this, also as a fellow PA hobby farmer I appreciate your videos they're great

[@kenarnold9132]

Pro Tip: Go to the scrapyard and find a refrigerator shelf (small one), build a square wooden frame from 1x1, use fence staples to attach shelf to frame. Put it over top of your bucket. Now ya don't have to hold things til they stop dripping when ya change filters.

[@PAFarms]

That’s a great idea.

[@andylonsdorf1294]

1086 1981 do have drain all hydraulic fluid?

[@hturbo1007]

Nice sounding tractor.

[@PAFarms]

Thanks yea that turbo really sings

[@simongaffaney5968]

Is it a 5 inch exhaust pipe?

[@kimculver1038]

OK thanks. I don't run that 886 to often but l thought that light was on more often but lseem to think it was when the clutch was depressed..the coolant is the one that was on a lot .l think it is a defective sending sensor. Thanks for the info.

[@PAFarms]

It should go out just as the tractor begins to move as you release the clutch. If it doesn’t you can adjust the rod on the mvc. It’s that small 1/4 in rod that hooks to the valve on the right. Either lengthen or shorten depending on when the light goes out.

[@snarf114]

You don't need to drain hydraulic fluid first?

[@davidthompson2125]

Here is the Hyd fluid drain plug on my 986. There are 3 plugs, one on each side and one larger one above draw bar

[@jhoodied4861]

Is the hydraulic fluid used for the power steering too?

[@justinsmith2855]

Is the dipstick and fill the same location on a 706?

[@johncahill2167]

Can you steer me to a video showing a hydraulic oil change for a 784

[@dehavenfamilyfarm]

Are those cartridges cheaper than the spin on filters? Finally some sunshine!

[@PAFarms]

I think the cartridge was about $11

[@darrencatellier7273]

Theres actually 2 more drain plugs back further at lower points

[@fyrciakfarms199]

What is the part number for the hydraulic coupler adapters you have?

[@PAFarms]

Not sure on the number, I think you can get them at tractor supply in the hydraulic section

[@fyrciakfarms199]

@@PAFarms Ok, I picked up a 1086 in box's got it running and found it it had big couplers.

[@robmckinney3290]

What is the Baldwin number for hydraulic filter I got to change mine on my 886 and 1086 thank you and nice job and equipment

[@PAFarms]

Looks like it should be PT-268

[@franciscoluna7929]

Tengo el 886 con problemas en reversa

[@nathanj9350]

How often do you change your hydraulic oil?

[@PAFarms]

Every year, not sure of the hours, usually do it with the engine oil change, the filter was only $11 I think

[@jth030966]

What hydraulic fluid do you run in your 685 can you run 80w90 gear oil

[@PAFarms]

I think Case ih recommends HyTran fluid or something similar. It’s expensive stuff so I will usually try to find a cheaper version that is still compatible. I would say 80-90 is too thick, the transmission takes hydraulic oil.

[@rokitman5753]

Way to heavy

[@davidthompson2125]

Do you have to drain the hydraulic fluid to change your filter?

[@PAFarms]

No, it stays in the tractor and you can change the filter, some will come out when you open the side but not much

[@KlineDeere]

Not in my 1066 that thing drains like hell you have to be fast not to loose it all maybe somethings wrong

[@mikes5922]

Do you know if on a 1066 if the hydraulics vent out the dipstick or is there a vent somewhere

[@PAFarms]

Should vent from the dipstick.

[@powerram92]

I changed the hydraulic oil and my clutch goes completely to the floor now is there any bleeding I can do or just let it run until the air goes out?

[@PAFarms]

I would let it run and work the steering and other hydraulics. Usually it clears up

[@powerram92]

@@PAFarms ok if it doesn't what should be my next action. I had pressure before I changed it I only let it ran how a couple minutes then I had to leave but I'll try it again lol

[@powerram92]

it hasnt clear up the transmission brake still isnt working. i tried adjusting it still nothing but the clutch works fine. any suggestions?

[@orkhancombe5]

Do you keep your excess oil?

[@PAFarms]

Not too much. I keep enough to spray on equipment to prevent rust. Any extra goes to by buddy’s garage to burn for heat.

[@williamchambers7235]

Changed our 986 hyd filter yesterday. We put a new t/a in it two weeks ago and ran it for a bit b4 changing the filter. What are your thoughts on the IH 656? I have an opportunity to buy one. Thanks for the video.

[@PAFarms]

Great idea to let the filter in for a while. 656 is pretty good depending on what you are doing with it. I think I would try for a 706 because the rear is bigger. Also a 686 would have a more modern engine with better fuel injectors. I always looked at the 656 as being very similar to the 560. But if it’s a good price, I would go for it

[@williamchambers7235]

PA Farms awesome! Thanks for your input.

[@Raise986]

We have a 1970 656 and it has been a great tractor. We have it on the loader so the wear and tear on it has been exponentially more than if it had no loader. At about 14000 hours we replaced the original d282 that had been overhauled once with a d301 from a 715 combine. A 656 starts really hard but once its running it won't ever die. Watch out for head gaskets though, they only have 14 head bolts.

[@theda850two]

@@PAFarms ,,,, on my recently acquired 656 Hydro, gasoline,($3,500), that the hydraulic/"transmission" oil filter is completely different?

[@janfrederick4991]

Is this the same for a 756?

[@PAFarms]

Yes, same thing.

[@dogwoodish]

so rear end and trans are the same 1086-1586?

[@claesmansson9070]

Looks like same filter on 826,only you have to take filterscreen and all 8 bolts out,notice that inside you have a filter guide that can be taken out for cleaning.Video didnt mention,maybe dont know,I also clean bottom og housing for dirty oil.Stay safe.

[@Raise986]

Man I wish the turbo on our 986 sounded that nice, it's hardly audible on ours.

[@PAFarms]

Does yours have a muffler on it? This has the muffler delete elbow on it.

[@Raise986]

This has the muffler delete also

[@deanklein5866]

i think you are soppose to check rear oil level with the engine running

[@PAFarms]

Yea you can

[@kimculver1038]

What is the reason for the dump light?

[@PAFarms]

It’s connected to the dump valve in the mcv valve, when you push in the clutch it should come on to let you know the oil is going a different direction. Basically like a bypass valve

[@Banjoandguns]

10 gallons came out of my 886 when I changed the filter

[@machinistbytrade]

Cover bolts...5/16" DON'T require 687ft/lbs of torque....the old saying..." if its farmer tight it probably ain't right "

[@mattsmith8890]

986 did not come with turbo

[@PAFarms]

Yea, this one was added a few years ago
