So I have had this massey 85 for a while know and never have had a problem with the steering or pto until today I started it up this morning and had my pto driven backhoe on it. I used the backhoe and front loader for about half hour then drove over to were I wanted to unhook the backhoe and reinstall the grader blade to finish spreading some gravel. So while tractor was running I was placing my blocks under my backhoe attachment pto pump was not engaged. I heard a pop noise kind of thought to myself that was weird wonder what that was. So I went ahead and finished removing lower pins and climbed on tractor to engage pto so I could lower outriggers and lower backhoe bucket. And noticed the pto wouldn't engage. So I just hit the lower bucket lever and it went down from weight and finished unhooking it and went to get back on tractor to drive over were grader blade was sitting and noticed I had no power steering and was about impossible to steer. So engaged pto lever into gear speed and it turned no problem but under rpm it and steering don't work. I tried to remove power steering filter and cleaned it out wasn't bad anyway. So I am not sure what to try next. I read where there is a oil line to control valve that can pop off which maybe could explain the noise I heard. Please help and point me in the right direction of were line is to check or what I need to check next. Hopefully I can remove top cover under seat and get to what ever I need to access.
Thanks In advance.
