    4020 If your cant beat them Join them

    Not sure if it's much help but I have seen that tractor in Rantoul about every time I've been there, couldn't make it this year so I don't know if it made it or not.

    76 4430 air in hydraulic oil

    Got the rockshaft off last night, found the clamp wasn't holding discharge pipe in the trans pump tight. I borrowed a video stick inspection camera and ran it in through the plug in the back, seen the oil spraying around the pipe. More throttle the spray got real bad. I'm ordering parts this...

    76 4430 air in hydraulic oil

    I've done the hyd. pressure tests in the jd service manual, so far haven't found anything as far as a high pressure leak. I did switch it to hy-guard, just finishing up a couple things putting her back together, hope I can put some hours on it with the correct oil tomorrow. I have no clue what...

    I live just south of Evart. Takes about 45-50 minutes to get to Mt. Pleasant from my house.

    I would have to agree with you Randy scrap prices took care of a lot of older equipment. Blows my mind the stuff I see at the local scrap yards.

    76 4430 air in hydraulic oil

    The longer I run the tractor the worse they get. Ive messed with stroke control valve, checked standby pressure checked the press on the transfer pump. Tran's pump pressure gets a little low when hot, but within spec in my jd service manual.

    76 4430 air in hydraulic oil

    Thanks Tim, figured that would be the only spot. I bought the tractor a year and a half ago. I don't know the whole history either, but I did just buy hy-guard from John Deere to put back in it. The old stuff was kinda dark. Thanks Derek

    76 4430 air in hydraulic oil

    I forgot to mention it's a quad range. So I just wanted to make sure there wasn't somewhere else it could be getting in other than the suction of the trans pump. Thanks Derek

    76 4430 air in hydraulic oil

    Last year end of season it was getting worse. Seems to be affecting overall hydraulic function, especially once warm. Hydraulic oil shouldn't look like it's emulsified with water, except it's air.

    76 4430 air in hydraulic oil

    I have a late model 76 4430 and I seem to have a lot of air in the hydraulic oil, more it runs the worse it gets. Just did load shaft and bushings, cleaned the suction screen and put new hy-guard in. Is there any other place tHan the trans pump for air to get into the oil? I'm thinking there is...

    I live in central Michigan. I'm going to give it a try this spring, we just got a ton more rain so might be a week or so on this heavy ground.
