LOUD squeal while stall-testing the clutch on an H

Posted by amnion on May 04, 2009 at 12:00:12 from (192.46.108.233):

I just picked up a nice '43 H and my uncle was convinced he needed to give the clutch a good go-around by doing the usual brake-stall test.

He says he put the tractor in 2nd and had the idle going pretty good for the test but when he let out the clutch a very loud squeal or screeching sound was heard along with a bundle of blue/gray smoke rolling out of the pipe. The tractor did not stall out.

Previous to this test I had concluded that the brakes probably need adjusting or replacement as the tractor didn't seem to stop very well in 5th.

So my question is: was the squealing sound due to the bad brakes or something clutch-related?
