Hi, you all know tractors very well so Im hoping you can help a new comer out. We bought a nice International Harvester 2500 constructal that needs some TLC but is in sound condition otherwise (not counting a bad 2nd gear). Its a diesel 4 cylinder with 4 speed transmision. Has front end loader and backhoe. I think it was a good deal at $4450. We are replacing all hydraulic hoses since it was outside last 2 years (it WILL be kept in shed from now on). We are draining oil changing filters and hydro oil aswell. The question. IS this a combo system where the hydro is also the tran fluid. If so what would you recomend to use in it. I have the service and parts manual but doesnt really say! Exact year not known but told was pre-80's. Probably late 70's. I can get the numbers off tractor if instructed where to look for them. I "think" its a shuttle shifter since a lever is used to go from forward to backward??? Another lever moves hydro power from power steering to the back-hoe waist hydro's.
Ive wanted a real tractor since I was a kid and now at near 30 I finally got one. Found your great site and hope to learn as much as I can from you. Ive built many car and truck motors so I know how to turn a wrench and do some machining and welding. Just......well this stuff here is all new to me. So Im not going to assume I know anything (since I dont) Please help me and any tips will also be very appreciated. Thanks, John-Paul

Potatoes were grown for sale and oats were grown to be used for cattle and horse feeding. Up to about 1958 the dairy cows were fed hay with some turnips and after that grass silage was the main winter feed. That same year was the last in which flax was grown on the farm. Flax provided the fibre which w
