My fault, I guess. I'm kind of overstocked in old red tractors and this tractor just doesn't get worked enough like it should. Anyway, and after things shook down as to my requirements for power on this old farm, my 686 does a heck of a lot of "just setting around". Okay, it has always had a tendency to stiffen up the T/A lever when it isn't being used. The trouble is upstairs in that "shift handle" area under the cowl. Feels like it just "rusts up" or something. If I use the T/A frequently for half a day, then it frees up and feels normal. I've looked at it and can't find a lube fitting on that shaft anywhere. Never ran into this before and was wondering if there is some way I can get this thing loosened up for good so it will stay free? Anyone ever ran into this? Thanks, Allan
