I recently bought at auction what was advertised as an IH 424 diesel. The fuel tank is behind the seat & the shift levers are on the left side. Can this be a 424? Serial # painted over. Been too cold to do much so far.

Got it out to plow snow, noticed the 3 pt wouldn"t lower. What could be the problem & how hard would it be to fix? Thanks!

Don

YOU MAY NOT HAVE A 2-WAY VALVE, OR IT IS NOT WORKING. UNHOOK THE HOSES AND SWITCH THEM AROUND AND SEE IF IT GOES DOWN. IF YOU HAVE MORE THAN TWO PORTS, TRY HOOKING THEM TO THE OTHER TWO AND TRY A DIFFERENT LEVER.

The 3 point lever is not attached to hoses, only the remotes are, what you say will work for the remotes. As the other post says the draft lever may be in the wrong place, that will definitely affect the lowering.

Hi, from your description it appears to be a 454.

Is it a 3 cyl Diesel and the 2 gear shift levers on your left have a range of 1 to 4 and the other Rev/Hi/Lo and power steering and power brakes?

Now there are 2 hydraulic control levers at your right hand side, the one closest to the fender is the 3pt raise/lower lever and the other one is the draft control. Try moving the draft control lever as far forward as possible and then try the 3 pt raise/lower lever.

If this dosen't work and it is below freezing where you live it could be some ice formed in a valve somewhere. The only solution for ice is warm weather or run the tractor long enough that the hydraulics warm up.

Good luck
