Hello, I have a IHC 350 Utility that runs good but has a "lazy" hydraulic sydtem. When mowing with my brush hog I must constantly raise the the hitch to keep the mower from whacking the ground. The fluid is clean and full. I looked to replace the "breather" under the seat but have been told that part is no longer available. Any ideas?? Replace? Repair?

The breather cap is just to keep water out and purge air from the system sounds more like you have a small hydraulic leak either in the cylinder or in the control valve itself. The best way to check is with a pressure gage. I had the same problem with mine

Thanks both of you for your replies. I did not see how the breather worked when my seat was right on top over the holes. I will get a pressure gauge and I did notice tonight the out side of one the hoses was missing a chink but did nit seem to be leakin fluid. The fluid is still full on the dip stick. Do yu check it with the tractor running or off???

I check it running with the piston extended, better to be a little over as it will go out the breather, if you run them dry they can be a pain. another way to check for leaks (internal leaks) is to fill the cylinder (fully extend it ) take the weight off with a jack and plug the hoses with 1/2 plugs (or whatever size the hoses are from the control valve)remove the jack and let it set for a while see if the cylender goes down this will isolate the cylender from the valve. if it goes down it needs rebuild or replace, if it holds put some weight on it and check again. repost if you need more help!!!!

The Salem Farm Supply I know is about 20-30 miles north of Albany, NY. My 660 was originally sold by them.
