First of all thanks to everyone that has been helping me out.
I had time to hook a test guage between the hydraulic manifold and the IH-1000 loader last night. With it hooked up no load on the loader the touch control lift arms made the pressure run 200-300 psi. if you ran the loader it would run 200-400 psi. If you ran the loader all the way up or tilted the bucket all the way down or all the way up till they wouldn't go anymore the gauge would peg out at 1000 psi. should I have more Psi through the whole range of motion? I asked my dad to test it with a load of dirt today since I didn't have time last night.
I do know that when the bucket has a scoop of dirt in it it will only lift 2' off the ground. The loader on my Farmall 100 has not problem picking up a full load of dirt heaping over the sides. I know something isn't right. Does these pressure sound about right?
Thanks
