Re: 1981 IH 4386
ya i run a 1981 IH 4386 on my 35 foot air seeder and it walks away with it, i have no trouble with pulling power or hydraulic output, it runs the fan steady, even in the hills. As for reliability its been good, i did have to to replace an engine sleave this spring, because the sleave orings gave out, but parts are vary affordable. That is one nice thing about the IH. They also used common parts for example, the diffs are interchangable. All in all its been a good tractor for us, i cant complain
