City boy trying to be a land owner....
Bought this tractor with front loader.... last owner stated it was a 3500 industrial but knew nothing about it, except belived it was late 60's. here are my questions:
1. how do i find out the year? tried looking for serial number but **** there's alot of numbers on it, even went to a site that breaks down vin number but eithier i was looking at wrong number or my tractor did not exist...
2. where the heck do i put the hydrulic fluid fot the loader? it has started to squeek and if load is too heavy will start to fall..
3. while its running, it will build up pressure in the spark plugs and at least one plug will pop off, you can litterality hear it "pop", i have replced the plugs but still doing it, why?
i would like to give it a full "tune up/oil change", what all do i need to do?
finding ANY parts has been a chalenge.
please speak in simple terms, i am VERY green and not mechiniclly inclined, thank you!!
