Am looking for a tractor and recently looked at a reconditioned
Super A and a late 60's 140. While test driving both tractors,
there were times when sitting still and I ground gears big time
moving from neutral into gear while idling (and holding-in the
clutch!). I drove all sorts of As, Super As, 100s, 130s and my
Dad's 140 thirty years ago, and while I ground my share of
gears, I am perplexed at how bad the gear grinding was on
these two tractors. There were shifts that moved into gear
smoothly and other shifts where the grinding was flat out
terrible. A week ago someone posted about using heavier viscosity oil in
gearboxes as a means of slowing the spinning gears. It that
what's happening with these tractors or have they always been
gear grinders and its my 30 - 40 year old memory that's got bad
synchronizers?
