I just had the same issue and was wondering how to resolve.
My 1723 will start to buzz when idling and it is coming from the hydraulics because moving the steering will make the buzz change. I could not see any fluid in the sight glass so I added more fluid and this cured it until a few jobs...
This thread reminds me of an HID/LED message scrum on a car forum :ROFLMAO:
I was looking at LED lamps to add to my tractor coz I have a light fettish, but when am I ever going to use it in the dark ?
I am getting the MF GC1723EB because it was the first dealer that came up in my search and turned out to be great to deal with. Seems like the tractor is well liked and capable.
I will be using it on 1.5 acres to build a house etc.
I just had to comment on this. We had a Nuffield 10-60 with a BMC engine that would start instantly as long as the battery could get the engine to move and the diesel was not solid. She ran like a top with plenty of power and a nice grey exhaust. Sounded fabulous too.
Unlike the David Brown 880...
