Thanks for all the information about the evolution of my tractor.. I am a new owner and loving the tractor. Like a lot of Yanmar owners, when I first look on the web for parts and support, there appeared to be a lot available. But after spending more time delving into the sites, it appeared there was a lot less than I expected.
As far as my tractor, everything is in working order now. Replaced the radiator and kinked bypass hose. This model had a water pump. Flushed oil and tighten a lot of bolts. Repainted some of the body. The hood is off and being hammered out. The last owner brought the FEL down on it some how, It had to be open to do that. I am rebuilding the head light trim. By the way Rust-Oliem :safety Red in the commercial size spray matches my paint perfectly.
I was working on enlarging our pond, but had to stop. The soil here is a sandy loam, when damp itç—´ easy to work with, wet it,'s a death trap and dry it's like rock. We have gotten over 16 inches of rain here. Need the rain but wouldn't mind if it would dry out.
I need to post a picture , but haven't figured out where yet.
