Bubbanm: After the touch control unit was rebuilt, were the control levers adjusted? Does the tractor noticably labor at idle? If those control levers aren't adjusted properly the system may not come off demand.
Your best way to check the lever adjustment is start tractor at low idle, place both levers at center of quadrent. Then slowly move one lever at a time fully forward, then fully back. If you notice the engine start to labor, then adjustment of that lever is off in that position. Repeat the same with the other lever. Always make sure the lever you not testing is at center position. The problem may not be the control you are having lift problems with. If for example the right lever is off adjustment, always on demand, the left lever will not lift worth a damn.
There is an adjustment proceedure for those levers in the IH Blue Ribbon Service manual, it's quite detailed, plus it uses photos or diagrams.
