[Farmall] Int. 184 overhaul - a mystery

[szabelsk at gdls.com]

Mike,

Looks like you got it right. There should be a small straight plug (VALVE, 
oil pressure regulating),  a spring (SPRING, oil pressure regulating 
valve), a gasket (GASKET, oil pressure regulating valve), and a threaded 
plug ( PLUG, oil pressure regulating valve).

>From the looks of it, I'd say it didn't come straight out like it should 
have. Maybe the plug came loose and the spring got mangled as it hung in 
the hole (?). Definitely wouldn't put it back in if that is the spring 
we're talking about. You may want to look for the valve while you're 
looking for the plug. I can't imagine that it stayed in the hole if both 
the spring and the plug wound up in the oil pan

Or this could be a case where somebody mangled the spring servicing the 
valve, replaced it with a good spring, and just happen to leave the old 
spring in the pan when they buttoned everything back up.
