    Bolens G174 slight howl in front end

    The tractor is a 4WD, 17 hp Iseki/Bolens, 1981. The problem seems cold-related, and bearing-related, insofar as it only zings when the clutch is out. Otherwise I'd say it's from the hydraulic...

BOLENSG174 Bolens
Bolens (Iseki) G174
Model Year: 1980

I've owned this Bolens (Iseki) G174 tractor for over 30 yrs and it has been very reliable. This model is powered by a 2 cyl. diesel. It has a Brantley loader and backhoe driven from a front PTO pump. Parts are still available from several dealers over the internet. It just keeps running but I am likely to upgrade to newer equipment.

Pros: Very reliable, starts every time.
Cons: Not many dealers will service this discontinued model so must service myself.
