Hello all !!!
Last month I bought a 70's vintage John Deere 300b tractor with a loader and a cab. After 1/2 hour of using it, the hydraulics start to shutter. If I let it rest for 10 min it will start to work again. I have changed the hydraulic oil and both filters. I also (watched a youtube vid) pulled out the long screen in the filter housing and cleaned it....very little goop. Book says it takes 8.5 gal of fluid plus 2.5 gal for loader. I put all 11 gal in the filler hole in the middle of the rear pumpkin behind the seat. What about that little round tank under the hood behind the radiator? Weird....if I shut the machine off and go to check the dipstick (below my right foot) oil will pour out of it ! I have to start the machine to check it (sucks the oil level down)
So before and after the oil change it acts about the same...shutters after 1/2 hour or so.....I also have a question about the accumulator.......
Thank you very much.....Dean
