Kilian: I have never heard tell of putting a permenant hydraulic presure gauge on a tractor. Usually you just hook a presure gauge to check presure at one of the valve outlets. You mention overheating are you sure you want presure or is it temperature your wanting to monitor. Most temperature gauges of that era were put in the end of the hydraulic screen. The screens with this option that I am most familar with are the ones on SA, SC, 100, 200, etc. Some of them had it and some didn't. The screen on the 300 is the same type, just larger. I would imagion those came with or without hole for placing sencing element in end of screen. May be you can just drill a hole in flat end of screen. You should check at CaseIH dealer before you try that. I will warn you, that you could be in for a surprise. Most working hydraulic systems operate just a bit hotter then you may expect. It is not uncommon during summer months not to be able to place your hands on any of the hydraulic components. The IH hydraulic temperature gauges registered only cold, run and hot, not actual degrees. I have seen the hydraulic system so hot you couldn't lay your hand on any part of it, yet the IH gauge would be in the run position. You are not the first person I have seen alarmed by this.

To top that off, you have a cup with oil in it ("why would you want to lubricate your carburetor?"). On closer examination (and some reading in a AC D-14 service manual), I found out that this is a pretty ingenious method of cleaning the air in the tractor's intake tract.
