In my experience there really is no such thing as a weak TA. The term "weak TA" is only used by sellers that are unwilling to actually say the TA is out. My father always said...."TA's are like being pregneant, no middle ground." One could interpret a TA that will move an unloaded tractor but wont move a loaded one in low range as weak, but if it wont work in the situation it was actually designed for, is it really of any value? I've bought and sold (mostly IH) tractors as a part time job/hobby for going on 35 years now. Adjustment is CRITICAL, but I have yet to find the first one that adjustment will bring back to life and make dependable. I'm sure others may have different experiences there. That being said, and being winter, I have had tractors that the TA will slip in low in the cold and couldt find a way to make them slip when the weather warmed up. Usually a fluid change would them make them work in the cold as well.
