I just bought this. It had been sitting for a while due to a transmission problem. We put a battery in it and it started right up and ran fine for a good 5 minutes, then it stalled and wouldn't start back up. Next day it started right up but it only runs a few seconds and quits again. When it...

What do you guys think about this? It has a bucket and a box blade. It's diesel 47hp I believe. He's asking $6200 plus $400 for the box blade. I'm hoping I can get it for $5k even. It looks good in the pics. It's a 1980 model year. The only thing I question is the loader attachment is like a...

I'm new to the forum and have a tractor issue that has stumped me. Last week I was using my tractor and noticed that it would go forward but would loose forward motion under load while climbing hills, pushing dirt etc. It had full power in reverse. I got an oil gauge and checked the reverser...

I have a 301A and need to remove the parts to access the differential. Tires are off, undid the bolts to the hub axle to try to access the Rear End. We have busted gears in the rear end and need to access this area. Also the differential lock is jammed (siezed). Does anyone know why, with the...
