Finally got the loader mounted to the M. It's a McCormick Deering 31 loader on a 51 M. Question is, what kind of breather should be on the cap for the oil fill? Got a little brass breather that threads into the filler tube cap. This little breather makes the loader come down real slow and go up real slow---going up acts like not enough oil, until you take the fill cap off and then the loader moves on up and down steady and nice. You can hear the air passing through that little sucker when the cap is on.

So, sounds like I need a bigger breather or something. Just wondered what yer running with.

Also, what is the preferred steer tire position on a narrow front end for running a loader like this. All the way wide, or put 'em all the way narrow?

Thanks,

Buzz

The tractor will steer easier with the wheels close together.

On my '48 there is a small brass vent cap tapped into the top of the filler pipe. This works well as long as the vent cap is open and the hole is not clogged with dirt.

As for the front tires, you may want to try them set as narrow as you can and then change them to the widest possible setting and see which works best for you.

Farmer Bob,

Yea, that's the same setup as mine. For some reason, that little breather isn't working like it should. It appears that you screw the top part of it out to get maximum air flow. Not sure what's going on here---maybe I need to shoot some air through it or something. Hmmmm.
