My brother's1538 HST ran out of fuel going down hill he said the tractor would not roll down the hill and it couldn't be towed as it seems to be locked up. Can he be correct ??? I thing he is wrong! Anyone know of any reason the tractor would not roll down the hill after running out of Diesel fuel? I imagine he may have cranked the engine over enough to wear battery down trying to start it after it quit running. I can only figure he was nervous and the reason it would not roll down the hill was because the slope was not steep enough. Or he had the brakes on?? He was blocking one lane of traffic so after awhile the fire dept towed it off the road. I was not there so I don't know if it rolled along as normal or if it was locked as he stated. I think he was wrong. Thanks
