I think they are great tractors and often under-rated. Great parts accessibility too. They were basically remade new with different sheet metal a few years ago by Mahindra. So parts for your B-414 are available new from Case-IH, new from Mahindra, new aftermarket, etc.
The stuck PTO clutch is very common. It's a typical two-stage clutch but they seem prone to sticking in the British B-275s and B-414s. I've got four of the same basic tractors and two are stuck right now. One - I took apart - found nothing visibly wrong. No stuck disk either. Put it all back together and it worked fine for a month and then got stuck again. I never bothered to work on it further. It works fine. Just have to idle the engine down to almost "off" and then engage. Still works fine as a live PTO. Whatever causes it - it is NOT a stuck disc in mine and not an adjustment. Even stuck - it works much nicer then my Ford 641 or Case VAC with the non-live PTO. Only flaw is with the diesels and their awful 1 volt glow plug system with the plugs all in series. Change it to 12 volt plugs in parallel and works MUCH better.

Radiator cores clog up with rust, lime or other mineral deposits and the fins clog up with weed seeds and debris. The metal headers slowly corrode away from years of use and
