I was hauling loads of straw home from a field where we chopped them last sunday (blower tractor is down but almost back up, and we weren't set up at all for straw yet)
I was just down the road maybe 200 yards from the farm when my truck started to chug and jerk a little bit, so I pushed in the clutch and let the wagon push me into the driveway, when I needed a boost on the steering or brakes I'd let the clutch out so it's spin the engine.
I pulled the pin and Dad helped me push it outta the way after I did a little venting (my car is in the shop right now too for a no start issue).
I walked away, and then went back and looked- My son flipped the gas tank switch to the rear which hasn't worked in atleast 8 years and it'll run for a while when switched, but it's still drawing on the other tank and when it does try to switch, it dies.
It's been a couple weeks since he was playing in it last, and I even saw him flip the switch. I've driven it more than 1/2 a dozen times back & forth, and never an issue til today....
