MKirsch: So true, I farmed and put 75,000 hours on 5 TA equipped tractors. My average hours of service on a TA between rebuilds is 10,000. My average hours of service on a Farmall diesel between rebuilds is 10,000. My average hours of service on a Farmall gasser between rebuilds was 4,500 hours.
Since it costs close to twice as much to rebuild the diesel over gas, and since it costs 3 to 4 times as much to rebuild a diesel engine as it does a TA. The result, it's cost 3 times as much to keep engines in these tractors as it has TA, yet TA gets the bad rap. Go figure.
