Hello All,
I had a few questions about my MF 1635 if anyone can help....
I checked my engine oil today and the level is good but was surprised to see the color of the oil is quite dark...almost black. Is this normal for a new tractor? I have 16 hours on it. First scheduled oil change is supposed to be at the 50 hr mark of course.
My second question is in relation to using my rear blade to plow snow. I have found that if trying to plow any snow deeper than a few inches I loose traction and the tractor "chatters/shakes" trying to regain traction. Sure don't like this feeling and seems hard on the driveline. Is this normal?
Thanks very much for any help
Merry Christmas to all!
