Ok guys, Here we go, I was on another page, I do not know how to keep all this together, anyway, I have a 1971 ford 3000 SOS, It was told to me the tractor just stopped as they were working it. I tested the tranny with the pressure gauges as you guys told me to, I have no pressure in any of the ports except servo 2, i have 205 lbs, Any help? Another problem i have is, I redid the seal in the steering stalk, but now if i turn the wheel hard left or right fluid comes out the little vent at the base of the steering box, any ideas? thanks guys, By the way, I changed the torque clutch even though i do not think it was bad, and the splines were fine, Any help will be so appreciated.
 
When you did the pressure testing, did you shift it through the gears and note which servos were pressurized in the different gears? The service manual has a chart that shows all of this information.

The fact that you saw 205 PSI tells me the pump is turning. You just need to continue on with your troubleshooting process. The service manual does a good job explaining the process.

MAKE SURE your rear axle is disconnected when you do the testing. We don't want the final post with your name on it to be from your widow.
