In Reply to: Farmall 504 Hydraulic fluid level indicator plug l posted by jessboyd on January 16, 2005 at 16:18:43:
Once upon a time many many moons ago I had not one but two Farmall 504 tractors, a diesel and a gasser. Trying to overcome my CRS I believe you will find a very small plug just where the book says, Hiwever, to gain better acess, have the clutch pedal depressed. ( and not with somebodies big foot- as that will discourage good visibilty. With the 3PH down, motor off, add HY-TRAN via the hole in the transmission cover until it comes out of the small hole. Then I always add a bit more to allow for hills and (god forbid in a Farmall) the ocaisional leak. The gasser is still running well with its second set of pistons (out of a 93 combine) and good original paint. The smoker got a Wide front from a 706. It looked real mean. However at a tender age the connecting rod on number four wanted to see the light of day without the benefit of a shop dissambly. Traded that one for a 706-310 at a JD dealer. He saw the 504 mess, but hi techs could not get more than 61 HP from the 706 after a rebuild. I did the injectors to 358 specs, and --tuned--the injection pump. (must have been dirty) Set the old 706 at 83 HP and hardley smoked.

Oil Bath Air Filters - by Chris Pratt. Some of us grew up thinking that an air filter was a paper thing that allowed air to pass while trapping dirt particles of a particles of a certain size. What a surprise to open up your first old tractor's air filter case and find a can that appears to be filled with the scrap metal swept from around a machine shop metal lathe. 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.
