Ugh that is a headache!

In a tractor, hydraulic fluid is primarily used to transfer power within a hydraulic system, while gear oil lubricates the gears in the transmission and differentials, and engine oil lubricates the moving parts within the engine itself; essentially, each oil serves a distinct function in different components of the tractor, meaning they should not be interchanged.

Key differences:

Hydraulic Fluid:
Function: Transmits power by creating pressure to move pistons and cylinders in hydraulic systems like lifts and loader arms.
Key features: High resistance to shearing forces, good heat dissipation properties.
Gear Oil:
Engine Oil:

Important points to remember:

Never interchange these fluids:
Using the wrong oil in a system can lead to significant damage due to improper lubrication and wear.
Consult your tractor manual:
Always refer to your tractor's owner's manual to determine the correct type and viscosity of hydraulic fluid, gear oil, and engine oil needed.

Thank you! Got it going now. A wire to the starter had just enough corrosion to not draw enough to start it.

I am in need of a Charge Light Relay (Long OEM Number TX11924). I have tried various parts providers and online searches. No luck. A used working relay would be ok. Thanks

it has been many years since I did alot of automobile repair. But that said I had great results with rebuilt short blocks and rebuilt valve heads.

Particulary when your gear gets old, remanufactured parts may be your only and best option you have rather than tackling the rebuld yourself !

Thank you Dennis. It's good to see so many familiar people are still here posting. I will have to admit that I have been beyond remiss in not checking in from time to time.

I have been busier than a 3 legged cat in a sand box covering up you know what. We have begun building our ICF farm home and shop. It has been a long, trying, and expensive process but we are making good progress. It was so difficult to find a solid reliable builder that I finally decided to be my own General Contractor. I am finding that I am actually enjoying the process and learning a heck of a lot along the way.

We finished digging the basement, completed the footers, and are ready to pour the concrete but are waiting for some concrete additives to come in at the concrete plant. I'm glad we are not pouring concrete today as the forecast is calling for a high of 99 degrees with a heat index of 105! I have to carry a towel to mop up the sweat and am drinking almost 2 gallons of water while working the day.

We are well. Just aging a bit but blessed and thankful to be as healthy as we are. Hello to everyone and hope you all are well.

Hi Imfedup, I do appreciate your response and suggestions. I apologize for the delay in responding, i had trouble with my heart. We think we located the problem in the power steering control valve. The relief spring and ball was out of place and may have been blocking the return port. We disconnect the two lines and looped them together, ran the tractor and pump did not get any hotter. I will let you know how it turns out.
Thanks Gary

What tapered pin are you asking about? There are at least three different steering configurations for the 245. Who knows which one you have?

ASSUMING here, your tractor has full hydrostatic steering, and not the funky setup with the internal cylinder and a drag link on each side.

Whenever possible I don't remove the cylinder from the loader. Just the one on the rod end. Then disassemble the cylinder, remove and repair the rod/piston unit and put it all back together. Can't tell by your description, but hopefully the pins you got out are on the rod end.

It sounds like you've already done some troubleshooting with the fuel system, which is a good start. Since the engine runs smoothly after sitting for a few hours, it could be related to heat affecting certain components. Here are a few potential causes to consider:

Ignition System: Check the spark plugs, ignition coils, and ignition timing. If there's an issue with ignition, it could cause misfiring under certain conditions like heat buildup.

Cooling System: Ensure that the cooling system is functioning properly. Overheating can lead to engine misfires and rough running.

Compression: Perform a compression test on all cylinders to check for any compression issues. Low compression can cause misfiring and rough running.

Fuel Injectors: Even though you've cleaned the fuel filters, it's worth checking the fuel injectors for clogs or malfunctions that could affect fuel delivery to one of the cylinders.

Engine Sensors: Faulty sensors such as the crankshaft position sensor or engine temperature sensor could cause issues with fuel delivery or ignition timing, leading to misfires.

Exhaust System: Check for any exhaust leaks or restrictions that could affect engine performance, especially when the engine is hot.

Considering the symptoms you've described, it's likely a problem related to heat affecting a specific component or system. If you're not comfortable diagnosing these issues yourself, consulting with a mechanic or a Honda specialist would be a good next step. They can perform more detailed diagnostics and pinpoint the exact cause of the misfire.

The place to start is at the starter. You will need a voltmeter and possibly help turning the key switch if you don't have long enough leads. You need to take the start signal wire off the starter, connect the volt meter to the lead and turn the key to "start." You need to see at least 10 volts. Any less and the starter most likely will not energize. This condition is what causes the "clicking but not always starting" you read about elsewhere. Your starter works if you supply battery voltage to the start terminal, you've already confirmed that. The switches and related circuits may all be working but even so if the voltage at the end is too low, you get the "no start" symptom. If that's the case, there is a solution to the problem. If you get no voltage at all, then proceed with testing from the key switch on down.

Thanks for your input. I have tried all your suggestions including taking it to the dealer. They have had it for three weeks now without a response or answer. Either they are stumped also or the have a backlog of service before getting to mine.

[QUOTE=Robertstrach1;201716] I have a 410 loader on a John Deere 4100 tractor. Occasionally it will not lift. It stops at various heights. If I lower it, then try to lift it, som ... [/QUOTE]The parts list for the 410 loader does not show a control valve. Assuming you have a valve that operates it, and it's not on any tractor remote valves, right?

If everything else works as it should, (steering, three point, bucket cylinders, etc) you can pretty much rule out the hydraulic fluid and filters as a problem. Focus on the lift/lower spool of the control valve. Particularly so if it's one of those junky cable controlled versions. Even if it's a simple manually operated single lever style, peel the boot back and observe the ball joints and knuckles to make sure the spool is travelling when you move the lever.
