Hi, Guys! As you may have read previously, I recently got a 1974 IH 574. The 3 pt. hitch/hydraulic remote quit working right after I got it....so I changed the hyd. fluid and the filter, and it worked great for a while- picked up a big round bale of hay with no problem, and let me disc my neighbors 3 or 4 acre field with a wheel disc..... But now, every time I use it, the 3pt/hydraulics work when I first start the tractor up, but quit shortly thereafter. I then have to let the tractor sit, and when I come back to it hours later or the next day, the hydraulics work fine.....for a short time, and then quit again (When you move the lever for the remote, you don't even hear the pump coming on when it's in "not working" mode). Does this sound like the filter needs to be changed again (this can get expensive! I haven't put but naybe 3 or 4 hours on the tractor since the first change). Also, is there a way to clean out hydraulic system without taking the whole tractor apart? It's a great tractor except for this problem....but this is really getting annoying! Any advice appreciated!
