Just took delivery on a new Jinma 204 and now have about 4 hrs on it (can't tell for sure since the tach/hr meter is not working).
After working the backhoe and FEL intially in creep and low range, reverse and 1st gear, etc. I took a drive to the mail box in high (creep) and high range. 4 wd disengaged. Once I shifted into 2nd or third gear I got a lot of gear noise from the main gear case. More than I had noticed in the lower gear ranges while working (and more than I had ever noticed from my old farm tractor in my past life as a 'farm-boy").. /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif
My dealer is has only given me a 90 warrantee and this is only for parts (no labor).
My question would be: what is normal gear noise on these tractors.
Also, any clue on where to start trouble shooting the tach? The connectors are OK and the wires look fine.
Any advice or experience would be appreciated.
