Strangely enough you will find electrical schematics in the parts manual. My parts manual is BT19 and it is quite useful as it has explosion views and detailed parts lists of everything on the tractor. So when you go to the IH dealer you take this parts book and show him what you want. I haven't seen the IT manual. I didn't mean to scare you in talking about the dealers. You just have to think about it a while and realize these machines are not like the letter series. The dealers are going to know the H, M, A, B. They are going to have to work a little harder on the 354, 364. Even the B275 (predecessor to 354, uses BD144 engine) seems to be more well known by my dealer. They will have your tractor on microfiche. As for this forum, if you have a problem with an H and you post it there are 100 guys who know the tractor. On this board there are only a few guys who have familiarity with the British tractors sold in US and Canada B275, 354, 364, etc.. These tractors were only built a few years and not in huge numbers. Guy Fay doesn't know them and he's the IH (i guess I should add letter series) expert. As for parts from dealers I can't tell you exactly what they may or may not have. They should have most all the regular stuff, brake disks, clutch disks, bearings, gaskets, seals, engine parts for sure. Don't expect that parts will be cheap. Tractor parts are not cheap and some parts may seem down right outrageous. But that's true of all tractors. Beyond that, if they have it great, but if they don't you need to find it at a salvage yard. There just aren't that many of these tractors at the yards. But don't despair, you will be able to find parts if you are willing to search for them. The internet is your source for finding parts and salvage yards. As far as your glow plug problem, that is a very simple circuit that you will be able to figure out and fix. And as for the BD144, BD154 engines, they are very good engines. So if your tractor is all there and essentially all working you should be OK. Don't just take my word. Go see your Case IH dealer. Ask those guys about the tractor and parts.
