am I safe to assume that the 1/8" line that goes to the traction booster gauge has full hydraulic pressure on it. thanks dan ------------- D19 Diesel,D17 Diesel SER.3 2-D14, 2-D15 SER.II WF/NF D15 SER.2 DIESEL D12 SER.I, D10 Ser.II 2-720'S D21 Ser.

I'd assume that...it's a STEEL line ..good for 5,000 PSIso do NOT use copper or uluminum or plastic.....lol Jay ------------- 3 D-14s,A-C forklift, B-112 Kubota BX23S lil' TOOT( The Other Orange Tractor) Never burn your bridges, unless you can walk on water |

Yup, Full hyd. pressure . It is just a hydraulic pressure gauge with a different painted face, nothing special. ------------- CA, WD, C, 3 Bs, 2 Gs, WC, I-400, 914 |

| the guage doesn't help you do anything better than without it.Good for amusement but what you feel the tractor doing is your best feed back. |

Tube is NLA from AGCO, might be some NOS around yet. I like having the gauges working. Even if you are not plowing they are good to have to help diagnose the hydraulics now and then. Just an FYI the gauge measures the pressure on the lift cylinder to let you know how much of the implement you are carrying. Jim ------------- An open eye is much more observant than an open mouth |

Go to NAPA and buy a brake line to replace it. Bob ------------- 4 B's, 1 C's,3 CA's, 2 G's WD, D14, D15, B-1, B10, B12, 712S, |

| I am trying to restore my father's old D15 Allis chalmers. The 1/8 inch line that runs from the traction gauge to the small square block is bad I need to replace the line also the block that it attaches to might have to be replaced. I have an owner's manual and a repair manual but I cannot find those particular parts. Where would I go to order those parts. |

| I got one from AGCO a few yrs. back for a D17. Had all the correct bends. Seems it was around $100 bucks. |
