International 504. hydraulics. part 4. running tractor

[@charleswelch249]

I'd change the hydraulic oil and filter a few more times until you get clean fluid. That moisturizer is what killed your pump and your loader is way forward to operate properly. It should be setting about Ware the dash ends and hood panel starts. Great tractor BTW.

great series on the hydraulics. Since the hydraulics provide the power steering... when its not running, does the steering wheel turn freely with no resistance (no steering)?

[@tomcatbeer]

Steering wheel will just spin. It relies on the hydraulic oil flow/pressure to do anything.

good day. Was that loader off a 606, it's sticks out the front pretty far. When in the 60's I thought they were apretty big tractor hp. wise they only have about 40-45hp. they only have a 152 cu motor. W-4 had 152 wonder if it's motor Thanks.

The 152 in a W4 is the same engine as an H. The 153 in a 504 is based on the 113 that dates back to the Farmall A in 1939. They took that engine to its limits.
