Hi, I am totally new to tractors. Just got a 1989 Ford Model 1920 Saturday to clean up woods and overgrowth. Didn't know it was dogged/pinned and think that's how I popped a line. Brother helped me replace it and said: "Top it off" (hydraulic fluid).
The dipstick doesn't give a lot of detail but I most likely OVER-FILLED it. Dipstick -->

Would that cause stuttered movement?
Former owner said to change the fluid and filter. HOWEVER, it was FINE UNTIL I filled it. With like FOUR GALLONS expecting to "top it off" mistakenly.
video of the stuttered action:
1. IS THERE A DRAIN PLUG?
2. Would over-filling cause this? FYI it also started "chugging" a bit as I drove.
3. Other theories?
