Hello fellow Tractor Enthusiasts!! Just this past summer I became the newest owner of a 1958 International 350U with the common Wagner front end loader and rear hydraulics. I had been looking for a IH Tractor for some time, I had owned a IH Scout before that and was sucked into a love for all things IH...
I found my machine on a local craigslist, for free no less, the PO had been using the loader when he broke a spindle. Instead of fixing it, he just let it sit for 2 years or so, then just gave up completely and offered it for free if I could move it. So I bolted up a new spindle, checked/freshened fluids, cleaned the points and drove it onto the trailer and dragged it home. Now that its here I (of course) have a ton of questions, most of which I have been able to find via the search but have hit a wall when it comes to working on my loader.
The problem I am having is a lack of pressure, all cylinders seem to move very slow, if at all. I know I have some bad fluid, when checked it is very milky and tan in color, so I assume that is the root cause, but I am unsure on the proper procedure to flush the existing fluid out while filling with new. If anyone can help, that would be much appreciated. I have a lot in store for this awesome tractor, and hope to have it running and driving in time for a local vintage tractor parade and show in June...

In the rural area he grew up in, the highlight of the week was Saturday when many people took a break from their work to go to town. It was on one such Saturday in the early 1940's when Sam was 16 years old that he ended up in Dennison, Kansas to watch a demonstration of a new tractor being put on by a local dealer. It was an Allis-Chalmers tractor dealership,
