How To Change Fuel Filters On Ih 484 Tractor

Hi all,

I'm trying to have an IH 484 work once more - this is a tractor that was e'er stored under a roof for 30/40 year and rarely used - probably one time or twice a year - to do picayune work - it nevertheless has a perfect original pigment and no rust at all, except for the fuel tank.

As the fuel tank was rusty i removed it, had it sand blasted, welded to embrace the lower end where the holes were and repainted information technology once more with the best colour lucifer i managed to find.

Every bit the fuel tank residual fuel line was also pretty much wasted with rust i replaced the ii taps with modern ones (in replacement of the original copper taps), used a flexible fuel hose to residuum fuel and then reinstalled the fuel tank - no leaks were detected later all this.

After having installed the tanks i bled the primary filter (in the correct side of the tractor) and all went ok - then i bled the secondary filter (on the left side of the tractor) and no fuel came out - thought that it could exist some kind of clogging in the fuel line betwixt the two filters and so i used a bicycle pump (i have no compressor :)) and fuel came out - after all it was just air in the fuel line - so, i managed to bleed the secondary fuel filter.

At this point i unscrewed the fuel pump inlet and fuel came out - every bit such, fuel is getting into the fuel pump.

At this indicate i though - well, the tractor has been idle for about v year - as such, the injector fuel lines are empty - as such, i will have to creepo information technology a lot in order to fill the fuel lines to each of the iii injectors - so, i started doing that.

At present comes the problem - we take a 110Amp battery - nonetheless, after cranking for well-nigh iii seconds we start feeling that the starter engines gets weak a lot - equally if the battery was depleted although it had been fully charged just then.

I have the feeling that the bombardment might even be depleted even before starting cranking - is this possible?

If anyone out in that location has a 484 - of how much Amps is your battery? - for how much time are your able to creepo before the battery starts to become weaker?

Additionally, how can i troubleshoot such a thing?

In these conditions i will accept to be cranking for weeks

Additionally, i noticed that the tractor owner keeps the bombardment charger connected to the battery while cranking - is this a skillful practice?

Thanks a lot for your help.
