Pics of my 240D

Very nice -- enjoy it.

How the heck do you attach just a reference to pictures, like spyder2 did above? I have some photos of a US Yanmar with that Revision Level 4 intake, but I don't want to clutter this thread with the photos themselves. I see that Spyder2's pix are stored on TBN and imbedded in the thread so how does this magic work? Thanks for any comments!

Spyder that's a great tractor and a gorgeous setting, as well!

California, I wondered the same thing about posting the pics and I asked in another forum. I was told it is just the way some of us came through when they updated the software. I, too, have been taking up room posting huge pics instead of the links. Only thing we can do about it, apparently, is to post our pics on some website like yahoo pics and then provide a link to that. If you ever find another solution though, let me know!

If you want to attach photos instead of displaying them it is easy if they are on your computer. When you hit the POST REPLY button it brings you to the REPLY TO THREAD page. Just go down that page to ADDITIONAL OPTIONS and click on MANAGE ATTACHMENTS. Then a window comes up that says BROWSE. Click on it and find the photo file in your computer that you want to upload and click UPLOAD. Then write your message and click SUBMIT REPLY.

Ok. I followed that precisely. But I don't see an attachment in 'preview post'.
Edit - Aha! Regardless of not showing anything in the preview, it works as intended in the actual post. Thanks Tallyho!

Wayne, (LMTC) here's a Revision Level 4 that was for sale a couple of years ago. Seattle area, I think.

[Edit some more] - At Level 4 they put on the round medallion showing the model number and went to generic hood stripes that just say 'Yanmar Diesel Tractor', along with adding that external air cleaner.

Level 3 was the last to have 'YM240' on the hood stripes. I wish I could find replacements for mine.

Here's that Seattle Level 4 YM240D.

Well......now I've seen two. Thanks.

That really is a nice tractor. I'm sure you'll like it.

I don't recall ever seeing a 240 with an external intake such as appears to be on the left side of the one pictured. What is the engine model (on the left side of the block) and what is the number on the chassis (left side of transmission just about where the operator's left heel would be)?

I will get the serial numbers for you this evening. The engine model is a 2TR20-AX.

Since it looks like the original rims on the tractor the tires are probably the same circumference (or very close) but I just wanted to mention this as a precaution.[/QUOTE]

Thanks for the heads-up Tallyho. I bought the tractor like that. It may be hard to believe but probably due to the low volumes (ie low demand) it is impossible to get 6-14 AG tires in South Africa. I even spoke to Bridgestone South Africa. As a result I am in the process of importing those tires from the US. In the mean time I am not using the 4X4 except on very loose surfaces. I certainly don't want to damage the tranny. I am not sure exactly what the ratio should be between the front and the rear. I saw it on a long post somewhere on this forum and will have to try and find it again.

That is indeed the correct engine for a 240. I suppose I had just never seen one like that before now.
