Welcome to TBN--join the fun:laughing:
The 150 is an excellent tractor and that's a great price especially since it includes new rear rubber. You did good:thumbsup: I paid $3600 for a 1964 MF135 diesel deluxe with multipower a few years ago. Had a lot of fun repainting, rewiring, etc that 135 to get it into decent condition.

It would probably be a good idea to change the fluids and grease the tractor before using. If you don't get an Operator's Manual for it at purchase, obtaining one would indeed be a plus in your favor. Best wishes. Welcome aboard.

 

[captjj]

Yes will change all fluids thanks for all advice

Welcome, and congrats on purchasing a great tractor! These are great tractors and seems like you got an excellent deal. I have one that my father purchased from the original owner and with 2500+ hrs, it still runs great (just need to fix a few leaks). Enjoy your new tractor!

Picked up 150 today great shape the only thing I see it makes a knocking noise in the tranny but when I push the clutch in noise goes away sounds like the throw bearing any inputs would be great

Even if you have to do a clutch job, you still done good. Those 150's are tough tractors proved themselves here in the tobacco fields of Ky over the years. Ken Sweet

It's a great tractor drives tight do you think it could be the bearing because the gears don't make any noise and everything works even the lights going to try adjusting clutch and see if noise goes away thanks for all the input

 

[The kid]

We still need pictures of your 150.
