1466 TA problems

I just had a chance to use a open station blackstripe 1466 I bought. I used it behind a 15ft disc just to pull it a little. The TA appeared to slip a couple of times so I unhooked the disc, checked and replaced the tellite, adjusted the ta linkage so the snapring bottoms out. The tellite comes on when clutch is depressed and dump valve is adjusted. When I put it in high third it slips in high and low both with hard braking, no light though. I don't have access to a manual until next week and have fours days off work to check out the 1466. Where do I check the mvc pressure to the clutches? Any other suggestings? Pictures would be great. I've scanned the archives for the answers and have not found exactly what I need.

Thanks!

If it is slipping on both high and low side, the main clutch is the problem, the TA could be fine. Hopefully Tractor Vet sees your question and responds. Wayne
 
I was wondering how to tell if it was the ta or main. It's been a long time since I had ta problems like about 1974. The memory is a little foggy. I did my old 806, bought the parts from my brother-in-law who was a IH dealer at the time. His shop rebuilt my pressure plate and he also talked me into changing the gear ratio. I did the split, clutch,ta and repair myself, worked like a charm. Thanks for your replies.

If you have slippage in both ranges, it definitely sounds like your main engine clutch is slipping. As others have said here, low range is usually what gives slipping problems. High range hardly ever slips, and I have never seen a TA slip in both ranges. If you find it is the main clutch that is the problem, I have a remanufactured clutch kit available that has a 6 button heavy duty disc, heavy duty pressure plate, and new release and pilot bearings for $423 plus shipping (amount depends on your location). No core is required. If you are interested, e-mail me.
