    450 Hydraulic Flow Control Valve

    Originally I took it out and sanded down some of the edges with 2000 grit sandpaper and some oil in case of burs, I guess. Made sense at the time. When I put it back together, the hydraulics worked consistently for a few weeks, then went back to intermittent. When I get to pulling it out again...

I am lead to believe that the throttle shaft has a vacuum leak (it changes in idle when shot in that area with brake cleaner). I have searched online and called the local John Deere dealer and cannot...

    Ryan - owner of the 450D I apologize for my lack of knowledge but I'm hoping I can throw some ideas out there. The acting switch only turns about 1/8th of a turn with some side to side wiggle. I first twisted it, after the issue arose, I expected more than 1/8th of a turn unless that is...

    Weak / Tightening Farmall 450 Brakes

    Good morning all, I recently acquired a Farmall 450 and was able to get the whole tractor running beautifully. The previous owner supposedly put on all four new brake discs, as well as new boots and new bolts for the cover. The brakes on the tractor are strong but they won't lock up the...

    Farmall Kerosene Oil Type

    Everyone says that 15-40 DIESEL oil is best for a farmall H. Does this apply for kerosene motors or does it need a special type. I remember reading something about using Rotella brand oil.

    Farmall H Kero vs Gas head rocker arms

    No, I guess someone rebuilt the motor at some point and installed a replacement gas head. All of the kerosene / distillate parts were left on it though.
