Finally got to put the Super M to work just the other day. Did a little tune-up on it (plugs and wires), adjusted the valves (one was tight, no clearance), got it charging (new regulator), and changed the engine oil.
My buddy had me hook up to a 35' trailer to haul big round bales. Made 3 trips, 5 bales first two times, 4 bales the last time. The Super M didn't miss a beat. My friend following me with a JD4010 gasser was just keeping up. He was quite impressed with my tractor, and so am I. Of course, he ran circles around me with the 966.

Still have a few details to address, but all in all, a very nice tractor.
