    Type of oil used in cream seperator?

    504 ps options?

    Were there aftermarket power steering options for the farmall 504s? or can a existing IH system be added to a factory non ps tractor? I personally have a torque generator on my 504, but ask on behalf of a friend whos 504 does not have any steering assistance, and wishes it did.

    504 pto Problems

    Every time i use the pto for work i have to pull and hold the lever up to make it work. When i disengage the pawl from the quadrant and let the lever be, the pto does little to nothing. It seems to be slipping. Do i need to adjust the linkage? Or does the pto need new parts?
