SpringHollow,

Thanks.

Did your machine also come with the 26x12-12 4ply CARLISLE TRU POWER tires mentioned above?

Yes but a member (JJ) posted telling us of a deal on tires and rims and so I bought some and modified them to fit my PT. I almost exclusively use the PT with singles now due to laziness, the stance of the tractor is in between duals and singles, the fact that chains fit so well with the modification, and because my work on the trails has made them less soft.

I added the bullet proof tire sealer and have not had to add air since I installed them. You might consider recessed valve stems: http://www.tractorbynet.com/forums/power-trac/192728-protected-valve-stems.html

After some investigation, I've concluded the fan solenoid is not functioning. If I bypass the thermal relay, I get 12 v to the solenoid whenever the key is on, but nothing on the fan side. If I just jump from the main red (from starter) to the fan white, the fan runs fine.

I see the fan solenoid it is a Cole-Hersey, but I can't see a number on it anywhere. Does anyone know which model it is? It looks like the intermittent duty variety on the Cole-Hersey website.
