D&D, thanks for the comeback. I solved my simple problem.

On my NH Ford tractor 445C, 4wd 8X8 to the left of the steering wheel is a lever, for shifting, forward, neutral and reverse. "Power reversing lever". It is illustrated in several figs. It has a wiring bundle attached. OK, I've searched the transmission catalogs, the hydraulics, the electrical...

NH Ford 445C loader backhoe Just pops into neutral whether in forward or reverse. I shift F-N-R or R-N-F and it stays in gear for a short irregular non specified time. Does anyone else have this experience or any idea before I get into it? Thank you

eKretz, I hope q`tour're well

Boy, Oh Boy, the more I find out, the less I know. My tractor a New Holland Ford 445C loader 8 X 8 with a Ford 764 backhoe. BTW, I'm 90, the tractor did it's job. Anyone want to make an offer/

Sportsman762, This time, you worded it correctly. It was actually a whack on the back of my head. I appreciate it. So far, I just added some Bars to the fronts wheels which carry 1 quart of fluid and I add ed 1 oz. Bars. I'll drain them. Thank you for the feedback! I didn't enjoy admitting...

Sportsman762, I appreciate your response, and I suspect you're knowledgeable, but there has got to be many people on this forum that have had personal experience with these hydraulic sealants. Specifically, Bars! I just don't want to pull my machine apart when there might be a solution that...

ptsg, Coolant stop leak has nothing in common with hydraulic stop leak, except both are hyped to stop leaks. With all the product out there, it appears there might be some hope with Bars. I thought I'd asked this forum for opinions from tractor people that have tried it for better or worse...

pisg, thank you for your reply. You not only live in a beautiful country, but you enjoy building things with your hands. So do I. Now at 90 years old I have slowed down. My question is: have you actually used Bars hydraulic sealer? Do you have experience with the product? My 1989 New Holland...

has anyone used Bars hydraulic stop leak sealant? In which way? results? opinion?

fluid is leaking down the front right tire on 4 X 4 NH Ford 445C. It's the planetary gear fluid in the outer hub.

Thank you. I bumped the starter. It was simple.

I like that first thought. I'll sleep better with that thought tonight. Yes, photo tomorrow.
