Tom you said you pluged the dump valve , yea need the dump valve for ease of shifting . It dumps pressure off the T/A clutch pac.'s . Now as to the steering wheel just turning when there is no fluid it will do this . The sump check plug is suppose to hold oil up in the steering system . also there is a check valve under the fitting where the line goes . Before you put this all back together you should preprime the pump . It does not take but a little oil to do this. Also since you have had the clutch linkage off you will need to adjust everything . Clutch free travel , transmission brake and the DUMP VALVE . And as to your second gear problem that seams to be the problem with most of them . Now i am no expert on the 1566 as in my area there is only one and it is owned by the local I H dealer . So i have never been into the transmission on one But the rest of the tractor is pretty much the same . I am still thinking your problem is with the flow control valve . Now as to finding a pressure gauge , The gauges ya need are 1 0-5000 lb. ,(1) 0-600 lb gauge and it does not take 200-500 bucks to get one . As to the fittings take the bottom plug out and find a J I C fitting for it and where the dump valve sending unit goes find a pipe fitting for that one . that will be low pressure the bottom one will be high pressure . Ya want around 250-285 clutch pac loc up pressure and ya want real close to 2000 on the high side . You can find a pressure gauge at T S C or Farm and HOME , neat store that farm and home as i was in the one in Edina and Kirksville . Then ya need some small high pressure hose and a hand full of fittings. With everything ya need i do not think you will get more then 150 buck in it all. What i find hard to believe is that there is not someone that is like me that will make on farm service calls with out wanting half the farm to do so. I covered seven county's here in Eastern Ohio and a couple in Western Pa. along with doing contract labor for three dealerships . Plum run the wheels off three pickups , plus running to almost every big auction and consignment sale between here and western Il. If you want to talk to me send me and E/Mail @ tractor_ vet@hotmail.com and i'll give you my cell # and yes it is a Mo. cell , thats a LONG story why i have a Mo. cell# and Live in N/E OHIO. I will be out at the farm here in a little bit as we are going to be Picking corn and i should be home sometime around 9 this evening .

Today's Featured Article - Usin Your Implements: Bucket Loader - by Curtis Von Fange. Introduction: Dad was raised during the depression years of the thirties. As a kid he worked part time on a farm in Kansas doing many of the manual chores. Some of the more successful farmers of that day had a new time saving device called a tractor. It increased the farm productivity and, in general, made life easier because more work could be done with this 'mechanical beast'. My dad dreamed that some day he would have his own tractor with every implement he could get. When he rea
