a 340 is a great tractor for small farms, the asking price is not to much if it's sound, has good rubber, runs well an has been kept up. I guess the questions to ask is how long ago was the fluid, filters both engine an trans been changed. Has the the engine or trans ever been rebuilt, hows the clutch an if they are provoding manuels. The end game is how much do you want the tractor, what are you willing to pay an are you willing to pay the price, if so then the seller is happy an your happy, if not then you look else were. I have sold a number of tractors in the past years, I don't ask anything more than what i think I have in one, so if its a good tractor, straight tin, the seller is not telling you a story, you drive it aound an hear no noise in the rear end or engine, all the gears work well, tires look good then your going to pay a good price. There is some place in the arcives a post/story on how to buy a tractor, do a seach on the site an i'm sure you will be able to fined lots since this question is ask just about every month or bi weekly. Good luck, one other thing I might say is that tin for 340's is sort of hard to find, when you do your going to pay high dollar for it, 340's are to new to be old an to old to be new, thus there are not alot in the bone yards yet.

To top that off, you have a cup with oil in it ("why would you want to lubricate your carburetor?"). On closer examination (and some reading in a AC D-14 service manual), I found out that this is a pretty ingenious method of cleaning the air in the tractor's intake tract.
