Trans pump has nothing to do with the implement pump..

J_J
Trans pump has to supply oil to the frt pump because the frt pump has no ability to suck oil IE oil must be supplied to frt pump.

Thank you for your reply, the fluid lev is ok, i can not tell if the front pump is turning until i get the loader off of the tractor , would the lift not work if the trans pump is working ?jim

Jim
One doesn't need to remove loader to determine if frt pump shaft is turning. "Carefully crawl underneath tractor with engine running" and one can determine if pump shaft is turning. I'll advise you to do a lot more testing before splitting the tractor or more than likely you'll be splitting it more than once.

jim,,,I know that you can see the coupler turning and i can but i can not see if the pump shaft is turning, i have had to rebuild the shaft coupler several times on my 1020 which has over 50000 hrs on it, and it is the same setup.. but it will be easy to split tractor without the loader, and i am going to repaint tractor, and i have new fenders and hood to install.. thanks ,,jim

Wow 50,000 hrs is a lot of hrs on a machine. My main point is to complete good hyd diagnostics before splitting tractor. Closed-center hyd's can be a bear to diagnose problems.

Being a shop foreman is not a desirable position for peace of mind. At the dealership I was a service manager dealer wanted more profit from shop,customers complain about cost of repair and length of time for repair,most mechanics are similar to small children whining. BTDT

I was also a service manager for a large marine sales and service for 16 years. I always heard the old BS about the shop wasn't making any money. It was like the SS system, they sure could keep my checking account pulled down to almost 0. Evertime I would get $15000.00 to $20000.00 ahead for some reason the money had to be used some where else. Sure was fun if you didn't mind not sleeping wonder how am I going to pay the parts bill.
