    Thinking about Selling 51 Ferguson TO 30 with attachments

    51 TO30 won't start ??

    Hi, I have a 51 TO30 that just won't start. It has always used oil, but it started fine a few weeks ago. I've changed Gas, put in new plugs, cleaned points & distributor cap, drained carb bowl, all the normal stuff. This one has me baffled - I don't see anywhere where anything has chewed wires...

    Price Check How to determine fair price to sell 51 Ferguson TO-30

    Thanks for the advice, but GOOGLE is NOT my friend - I can post some pics and give some info. This TO-30 has new tires front & rear - new rear brakes - rebuilt Starter and Generator (still 6 volt) - Fresh wiring - I got rid of the glass fuel bowl & put in a shut off valve with fuel filter -...

    Price Check  How to determine fair price to sell 51 Ferguson TO-30

    I have a 51 Ferguson TO-30 that was purchased new by a neighbor - It runs and has several attachments. How would I determine a fair selling price ? Thanks, B.K. Brown

    450cause the seat to lower enough that 0P 50hr service and evaluation

    Ventrac had a Sickle Bar mower made for them by another company for a short time. I had asked my dealer and asked on this Ventrac forum about one and one of the Steiner brothers actually found one that was sold, but rarely used by a DOT in the south - I contacted the dealer that had it and had...

    HB580 Broom experience???

    Get a set of tire chains for the Ventrac 2 link spacing v-bar chains on either front or rear (or both) will keep you going straight and it is not easy to get stuck unless you high center.

    Just hope to save someone some trouble (Stink Bugs)

    I had a different experience with this last deep heavy snow. I have the 4231 Gas liquid cooled and it always runs great. As I was using the snow blower on this deep snow, the engine would seem to bog down and I would slow down and then start again. Tractor would run fine for a while and then bog...

    Ventrac 4231 Sickle Bar

    I guess I didn't update this thread. I have one now and it was located by one of the Steiner brothers for me. The bar will cut at any angle from below horizontal to vertical. It needs 2 suitcase weights to counter balance the bar. This was a slightly used (like new) unit and I had it...

    Bad Day at Block Rock - errrr - Make it Bad Year.

    Thanks, We like the Chocolate Labs, but they are hard to see in the woods at night. Plus I am partial Red / Green Color Blind and they blend in. I got a reflective harness for MAX he managed to get his head behind a tree, but even with the snow you can see the reflective quite well.

    All good looking dogs ! This is our Chocolate Lab. Max is the big boy and we say he has ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder) and this is our previous Chocolate that we lost about 2 years ago Jazz was our little girl and we still miss her!

    My First Tractor will be a Ventrac 4500Y.

    I don't know if yours is the same but here are a couple pictures of mine. The arm rests do not attach to the sides of the seat, but to the back. I seem to remember someone saying that the inserts are under the back panel and the location of the holes are molded into that back panel plastic so...

    My First Tractor will be a Ventrac 4500Y.

    John, You will not have any problems with the snow blower. We had 2 snow storms here (2010) that were 2' each and the Ventrac had no problem with either of them. :D :thumbsup: I did over 1/2 mile to the main road and 9 neighbors driveways. Our road is "state maintained", but it is last on their...

    Bad Day at Block Rock - errrr - Make it Bad Year.

    We have a Chocolate Lab that is around 120# and NOT fat - he is just BIG and STRONG. He likes to bump and push. MAX can push me over a few inches while I am in my Lazy-Boy and I'm around 220# plus the chair. Max has a habit of running and jumping at whatever I'm ready to throw for him - I need...
