Hey all, I recently found this site and its great. I have a question and need help. I just bought a 1962 340 utility, nice tractor. Only thing is, there is a whine like the hydraulics, under steering wheel and/or inside tranny. Here is the weird part, it robs engine of power. When I raise/ lower three point hitch, it quits whining and engine runs perfect. I mowed some the day I got it, 91 inch finish mower, pulled it in 4th gear half throttle. Now bogged down in 3rd. Weird that it quits when I use the hydraulics, comes back when I'm not using them. Fluid is full in tranny. There is a filler cap at end of distributor, where governor is, this has to be engine oil fill, right, and not hydraulic? Could this be a valve stuck? I have a 44 H, 50 H, 52 H, and have been around those my whole life.
Any help is appreciated. Oh, the shifter tag has the D and T/A on far left, but it doesn't have the lever for it, so I just assume it doesn't have torque amplifier. Man said it didn't. It came from Southeast Missouri, not mentioning name of dealer.

It is also very apparent that these folks are getting a lot of very poor and often very dangerous advice fro
