I've noticed that the hollow portion of the filter screen assembly has some sort of liquid in it. After I pulled the oil pump out of the tractor I let it soak in kerosene for a while before working on it and it almost sounds like that might be what got into it. However, I can't get any liquid to come back out of it.

Should there be some sort of fluid in it or does it have a hole somewhere that allowed the liquid to get into it?

If its messed up what would be the best way of fixing it, or do I need to replace it.

Thanks in advance!

The oil pump pickup assembly is designed as a float to allow the screen to ride up on the oil rather than picking it up from the very bottom of the pan. This was important when engines were being run with non-detergent oils. Muck would form on the bottom and the floating pickup was an attempt to be able to draw cleaner oil into the engine. IH went away from this design it the sixties.

There should be a stop to prevent the pickup screen from touching the bottom of the pan. If it were to sit that low it could restrict the oil intake and also wear through the pan.

Its from a super C. From another discussion its been indicated that there should be no liquid at all, and it probably has a pinhole leak. On closer inspection there appears to be a blob of jb weld or something similar on the top of the float.

Looks like I will need to take care of a leak.

Thanks for the reponses!
