Is there a way to step up the oil pump pressure in the 225-301 IH 6 cyl? It has about 35, so not much to worry about, Just wondering. Thanks, ChadS

The 460 560 some of the 706 and I think some first 656 had a cast iron filter base and yes the relief valve is in the base. Never had oil pressure trouble with the cast iron base. Then IH came with the through away filter and an aluminum filter base and we had big troubles with the aluminum bases, just had a wafer valve in it. So if you have the aluminum base with the through away filter, take the base off and take the valve out to see how the valve and the seat looks could be the problem.

thats a darn good question. i have a 706 with a 263(i believe). in the winter i run 10w oil. when cold it pushes 30-40. once it's warm it runs about 20 at idle and back to 30-35 when you turn the throttle up. in the summer i run 30w oil and it runs the same pressure ranges. i've been told by the ih dealer that it is just fine. the tractor has 12000hrs and i have know idea what has been done to the motor. i just did a head gasket last fall. the cylinder walls were just fine. i assume it has been resleeved since it was in such good shape. my 2 cents

According to my I&T manual, the pressure relief valve is in the oil filter housing. My engine has a plug on the side, never took it out or anything, but, if that controls the oil pressure, could that be shimmed up to increase pressure? I would like to see around 50 psi in this particular 263 ci, I have. Like I have mentioned beforem it is in a puller, and will be running right around 3200 rpm, no more,,, Just want some extra protection for the bottom end of the engine. I have done the flywheel so it will be safe, but you know how that is,, anything can happen in pulling. I must admit, I am surprized at the power these engines can produce when you tinker with them. iT JUST KEEPS GETTING BETTER AND BETTER!! ChadS
