I have a 986 International. It was working great and I was using the front end loaded and pushing into a dirt pile to get more dirt when it would barely move forward. I shifted into reverse and it barely creeped backwards as if it has no power. It will reverse up no problem but no power. It also seems that the hydraulics won't lift as much as before either. I am not mechanically inclined but am willing to try. After a bit I was able to get the tractor to move but it has no pulling power. Any ideas? Some local farmers suggested Torque Amplifier but pretty sure that isn't it. Any other ideas? From what I have read possibly clutch or hydraulic filtre? Any other suggestions? I am open to try anything
