    350 u off to mechanic 300u electrical question

    I converted my 350U to 12 volt and switched the ignition to a Pertronix. If it balks at starting I now go right to the fuel system as I has a lot of confidence in the ignition. The Pertronix was around a hundred bucks 10 years ago and well worth it.

    IH 350 Utility bent pushrod

    I could tell it was just one bad cylinder by the PAP PAP PAP back through the carb and it was clearly just running on 3 cylinders. Pulled the valve cover and there was the bent pushrod. Pulled it out, straightened it and ordered another (14 1/2") used one. It seemed like the valve wasn't really...

    350U valve timing

    Some dummy had #1 and #2 plug wires crossed—I'll talk to myself about that. Still a problem with running rough, back firing through carb. Pulled distributor cap—dry as a bone BUT with half a teaspoon of odd-looking, brownish chips in the cap. Clean it out and brushed up the rotor slightly but...

    350U valve timing

    Makes sense if it's gear drive. The strong pressure back out of the carb seemed strange so now I'm thinking a stuck intake valve......more research.

    350U valve timing

    This sat for a week and when I went to start it two days ago I got backfire through carb and no start> With palm ver carb for choke I get lots of pressure AND lots of suction. I don't remember experiencing that in over 50 years of messing with old gas engines. Are these timing gears or chains...

    350 utility power steering repair.

    Steve Watroba has a 49 part series on the International 300/350 Utility which he presents free on YouTube. Quite a bit of his work was on the power steering on these tractors. The whole series proved very useful to me and my 350 Utility (with Pippin backhoe and FEL).

    int 350 tractor

    My 350U has power steering and it works pretty well. I believe that is because it has had a backhoe since it was new. The backhoe is a Conomatic-Pippin and is HEAVY, which takes a lot of weight off of the front end?even when empty. It also does NOT have a TA as it doesn't really need one. IH was...

    350 Utility Leaking Flow Control Valve

    Good info. It must be that safety regulator valve. When it first blew out I saw that the circlip (internal snap ring?) was actually broken in three pieces...I found two and the top plug with the O ring on it was sitting up at an angle. The last two times I've put it back together the same thing...

    350 Utility Leaking Flow Control Valve

    Second posting; not sure where the last one went. The valve to the right of the operator's seat sprung a leak around the O ring. I don't know what this does as this tractor/backhoe/loader has no PTO, Torque Amplifier or 3 point hitch. The one lever doesn't seem to move very far?if it does at...
