    IH2444 Tranny Fluid / Hydraulic Fluid Question

    Well, I had OReilly Auto Parts make me a new hose for the power steering and I got the reactor out into the field again finally. Was running great. Then a small backfire, and then a sudden flash of fire came up at me from through and around the dash. Quickly shut the key off and jumped...

    IH2444 Tranny Fluid / Hydraulic Fluid Question

    After reading that The tractors using the trans/diff as a hydraulic reservoir can be identified by having two hydraulic lines running under the seat on the right side and entering the top of the original hydraulic reservoir, I looked, and mine does not have lines of any kind running under...

    A couple of IH444 questions.

    My 1968 2444 did the same thing. I changed out the distributor cap, rotor, coil, points, condenser, plugs, wires, ballast resistor, even a new battery. Nothing made any difference. Then I disconnected the fuel line before the filter and blew a couple short burst of compressed air...

    IH2444 Tranny Fluid / Hydraulic Fluid Question

    Thank you for this info. I only have the 3 point lift, no FEL or any other hydraulic options. Since the fluid in the reservoir is still clear amber, I assume mine is not sharing the hydraulic fluid with the tranny fluid. I will look for those two return lines under the seat to be sure. I...

    IH2444 Tranny Fluid / Hydraulic Fluid Question

    I have an IH2444 serial# 02774 and the power steering started acting up today. I checked the hydraulic fluid from the square head plug on top of the lift assembly under the seat, and it only shows about an inch from the bottom of the reservoir and it is a clear amber color. I also checked the...

    2444 Battery Cover

    My 2444 sits outside 24/7 and the battery in the fender is exposed to the elements. Im considering ordering a factory battery cover for it, but I have no idea how it mounts or works. Does anyone have a pic of one installed on their 2444, 444, or 424? Or would I be better off just putting a...

    Voltage to Coil

    On mine the plunger has a spring seat ring. The spring goes between that spring seat and the solenoid while the plunger goes inside the spring down into the cup/hole in the solenoid. It seems like the plunger is supposed to stay pushed away from the solenoid when not in use. It is...

    Voltage to Coil

    Think I figured it out. The bendix spring that came with the new solenoid was too stout. I put the old spring in with the new solenoid, and its working now.

    Voltage to Coil

    Just replaced the starter solenoid and made sure all wires are in the same place. Now the starter starts bendix starts spinning as soon as I reconnect the battery. Key is off. Button not being pushed. Even with both the S stud and the R stud disconnected. It does the same thing. Im assuming...

    Voltage to Coil

    I ran a 10 gauge jumper wire from the positive terminal of the battery to the ballast resistor input stud and still got no spark. Then I switched it over to the ballast resistor output stud and I got an orange-yellow spark. Plugged the coil wire back into the distributor and she started...
