I get out to the farm today and my uncle's all ready there doing chores. I'm all happy cause I can go right to what I need to do, which is seal the crib so we can pick corn. We hook up the picker (which is a JD 300) to our older MF 1155 and try to get the electric elevator to run which takes an hour to get it to go. So my dad goes out and picks a load he brings it back so we can grind it for creep feed. We grinding with the 4020, which is not something we normally do. All of a sudden, white smoke starts rolling off the engine and shooting out of bypass on the bottom. I run over to it and shut it down but not before it starts slowing down on it's own. We look it over and start it again. The heat gauge is off the mark and it has a knock. So we pull it off and put our other 1155 on it and it has a linkage problem with the transmission, but is drivable. My uncle gets ready to take off to unload, nothing happens, linkage busted! Just gets better. I wish we would rid of the 4020 and buy a Case.
