B.I.L. and I were out riding around one sat afternoon while the ladies were doing this baby shower thing. We see a nice looking CIH 7140 sitting along the road for sale. It was clean, had decent rubber, weights, duals etc. We pull in and the owner steps out from the barn. Were talking tractor and B.I.L. pulls the dip stick. Oil was down just a skosh but seemed fairly clean. Owner gets in and fires it up while we are walking around it looking at everything. Seemed to run nice, B.I.L. climbs in and starts driving it around, goes out on the road gives it some throttle and starts shifting through the gears when all of a sudden clunk rattle, rattle. He shut it down right there and rolled to a stop owner and I jump in the truck and head out to the tractor. Decided to pull it back to the yard. Owner climbs in and fires it up. Still rattled and a little louder now. Few weeks later B.I.L. went back and the owner said that the engine had spun a rod bearing and was having it rebuilt.
