I have several 3000 Series Tractors and one of them recently had the PTO Vacuum Solenoid go bad,
I swapped one from another tractor to confirm that the valve was bad.
New from CC they cost about $80 and I will probably need more than one as I plan to keep using 3000 Series for a long time.
I am hoping to find a substitute that is less expensive. I did a bunch of searching on Amazon/Ebay and found many that look like they will work, with some fabrication.
I bought one and it should work, but I will need to make modifications to the wiring to use it.
The CC OEM valve appears to have a GM style Weatherpack Connector.
Has anyone found an inexpensive valve that will work with very little, or no modification?
If so, please provide link/photos/part#s
Thanks, Joel
