International 70 Hydro

Posted by Leon on September 20, 2004 at 05:55:46 from (12.10.123.159):

I am looking at purchasing a IH 70 Hydro and need some advice. The tractor has been sitting for several years but started and run occasionally. The owner says it has developed a miss on one cylinder, (6 cyl. gas). He has replaced the spark plugs and wires with no success. It shows 2500 hrs on the tach. It has not been running this year and I won't be able to get it started prior to purchasing it if I am interested. The tractor is complete and the visual condition is fair considering is sits outdoors. I am not familiar with the hydro series tractors and need to know what one might need to be aware of when attempting to revive one. If the hydro needs work, can one who is mechanically able, work his way through the system or is this an area where a professional should be involved? I am not too concerned about the miss as I think it could be a stuck valve from sitting. What is a fair price range for a tractor of this era? If anyone has any advice, I would certainly appreciate it.
