for some reason the majority of tractors coming up for sale here have had gas engines. i need a preferably 70 hp tractor for springtime (trying to plan ahead and save a little $ by shopping around) and was hoping to get a diesel, but they havent been too common. i've never run one of the gas 6 cylinders and i was wondering how much gas they burn compared to the diesel engines of the same class/model. Is there any less power, and are they cheaper to fix than diesels? i imagine they are based on my experience. i hear the 263 in the 706 was a good motor, but i dont know. never run one nor heard one run. also whats a fair value for example a fair 706 with the 263? what might i expect to pay at auction? do they go for less than the diesel with 282 or 310? how much does a 706 weigh? thanks!!!
