Love to buy it. It is the toughest tractor I've ever owned. I had that very model for many years. My son now has it in Alaska. it has 3 times the hours or more. I now live in the lower 48. What do you want for it?
When it comes to hydraulics there is pressure and flow. In a static system all points within the system have the same pressure but when fluid is moving pressures may vary with volume and restrictions within the system such as load or. . . . If there is a restriction in the flow you would see...
Off road diesel is dyed red so that it shows up in the exhaust if you use it in an on road vehicle. The reason is the off road diesel has no road tax on it. Other than that it is usually the same as the on road stuff.
When building a trailer the tongue weight is critical for safe hauling. Car trailers and other tongue trailers should have 10% more of the load on the tongue. To accomplish this The wheels are moved back from the center of the deck by 10% of the length of the deck. So if you measure to the...
I have used both extensively and the two post always makes me wary when I'm under there. The four post is much safer. I'm sure you've seen the videos online where a car falls off the two post lift. That doesn't happen on a four post lift.
Some don't bolt them down then they can be moved if need...
They are color coded of course. Red for gas, Blue for water, yellow for diesel etc. Heaven forbid if they made a safety can that would actually work. Those safety cans make it impossible to fuel many vehicles. Safety cans make the insurance companies happy but don't work but they are safe in...
I generally leave that first couple inches of snow and drive it down then there is a surface to plow against and the driveway stays pretty much intact. Mine is gravel not pavement. without that your going to get some driveway without some skid on the bottom to keep the plow from removing the...
My first question is, are you getting oil pressure or just guessing. It sounds like there may not be any oil pressure then it won't run. Put a gauge on it while cranking. Possible oil pump failure!
Loaders and snow blowers have the same problem. They work much better after the ground is frozen. I generally leave that first couple inches of snow and drive it down so the rocks are covered and let the ground freeze then you can let it down and go without worrying about taking the driveway...
Sounds like a bad battery cable or grounding connection. A volt meter would tell you what voltage is in the battery. if it is around 12 volt the cables are definitely the issue. Grounding connections are the greatest culprit in situations like this but i've seen a few bad battery cables also...
When it is empty the startup current draw is low enough to get through your little cord. When the pressure is higher at restart the current draw is a lot more causing your issue. Not only are you using to light a cord, it is way to long for this application. The solution is more power at the...
Working tractors! Yes that's why you buy a tractor to get work done! A shiny new one is great until you run into an issue with the def or an electrical issue. The older tractor for the occasional use DIYer is the best bet. Since I do my own repairs I find the older tractor the most economical to...
