I went out to crank my tractor and all I got was dash lights. The tractor would not turn over or click. I thought it might be a dead battery but the battery seems to be ok. The turn signals and grad lights work. Can someone walk me thru bypassing the ignition switch? Thanks

With the help of my trusty YM2000, we had a successful Indian corn harvest:

When I use a scrape blade with my ym2000 it just bounces along on top of the dirt. I am thinking about adding a bracket on to the blade so I can hang a few suitcase weights on it. Any thoughts?

Tomatoes,squash,peppers,okra,sweet potatoes,cukes,beans and a test patch if cotton.

I have been tilling, mowing, plowing like a madman lately. It sure is nice to have quality seat time. Summer time! Woohoo

I was tilling the garden today with my ym2000 and rs1400 tiller. As i was tilling the tractor acted like it came out of low gear and into high gear. As soon as i got stopped it returned to normal. It did this two times today. Does any one know what is going on with it? I checked the transmission...

I have been looking high and low for some new or used suitcase weights. I found a lot of them but the shipping cost was was very high. I finally found some at the Home Depot with FREE shipping! They are 42lb John Deere weights and fit perfectly on the front of my YM2000. I don't know how long...

I am cutting grass today for the last time this season. Kinda sad to be taking off the bush hog for five months. Anybody with me?

I bought a ym2000 about two years ago. It was showing 20hrs when I got it so it was obviously a vn rebuild. I have put about 100hrs on it with no major problems. I feel like I am out of the woods as far as getting a lemon. At How many hours would you breath a sigh of relief?

I am curious as to what kind of mpg our Yanmar's would get if driving over the road. Any idea?

I found this tiller on CL. He says its 52' long tilling width and 57' long overall. He does not have a pto shaft or links for it. I have a ym 2000. How hard would it be to get this tiller up and running on my tractor? Thanks Yanmar Garden Tiller

Can anyone tell me if wile my tractor is running and I turn the key to the off position will the alternator still charge the battery. Thanks:)

I am looking for a tiller for my ym2000. All the dealers I have talked to are asking around $800 for them. If you have one or know of one for sale let me know . Thanks

I am going to plant a 3/4 acre garden this year. To get the ground ready for planting, I am thinking of getting a Middle buster and a cutting harrow for my Ym2000. Do ya'll think this is the best way to go? The ground is good old Georgia red clay. Thanks
