Well i will throw my nickel's worth in . UNLESS it is running ( IF the owner is to cheep to put a 80 dollar battery in it and a set of plugs and points and five gallon of gas to make it run then he does not want to sell it) And unless it is running on it's own and starts on it's own then it is a DEAD ROW tractor . And with that you can almost bet your bippy that the T?A is almost out or is out.. And the only way to tell is when it is RUNNING . THEN to get the best test it should be done in HIGH RANGE and in third or ROAD gea rby loading the engine with the brakes and then pulling the T/A lever into the lowside . What this guy is doing he is pricing this one by what others are asking for there's . One Idiot around here is asking 8500 for a narrow ft fast hitch gasser , yep he is nuts . crazy what ever . Now the sad part is some idiot will probable give him 7000 for it and think he got a deal. The one your looking at IMHO is worth 2000-2500 at best buying a pig in a poke . Plus if you do not know how to correctly how to make the repairs and have to pay someone You may end up with as much money it it as if ya went and bought a 5088 . As for the gauges not working , well i can tell ya probably why . as you only have two gauges , one fuel GAUGE and ONE TEMP gauge . The fuel gauge probably does not work because it is either the sending unit in the tanl or no juice to the gauge. The Temp gauge does not work is because at one time the head was removed and the temp sending bulb either twisted off or was CUT , so to repair you have to REPLACE THE WHOLE gauge cluster. So there is my NICKEL's worth.

Today's Featured Article - Pitfalls of Tractor Engine Rebuilds - by Chris Pratt. The first pop after you have put the machine together with your own hands is exciting and pleasing. The whole experience can be marred if one moves too fast and makes too many assumptions that they can just use "as is" some parts they should be closely scrutinizing and possibly attended to. In such cases, rework makes what could have been a fun project turn into an irritant or even a nightmare. Minor Irritants To give you an example of an minor but irritating proble
