Just had to vent my frustrations with some people who can feel may pain.
I have an old Nuffield 460 I bought to use for some landscaping and snow clearing. Used it for 4 or 5 years regularily, and the only thing I had to do to it was replace a bearing in the fan.
That brings me to this year. I haven't really used it much the last couple of years. So I decided to sell it.
Tube was leaking through the valve. As it was a loaded tire & I didn't have time or equipment to fix it, got it repaired - they had to weld the rim as it was rotted around the valve - lots of $$$.
Had to replace the battery.
Started it - and it stalled, something it's never done before. For some reason, I had a bear of a time bleeding it. Got it started, used it for a day, put it up for sale. Went to start it the next weekend - stalled again.
As I only get a few hrs every couple weekends to work on it, took a few weekends to determine the problem was a leak at the fuel filter. Filter is no longer available, and I could find no info on a replacement. Finally found one, made a few modifications, and got it installed this weekend.
Started it to make sure there was no leaks, and figuared I would move a pile of dirt before I sold it - hydraulic line for the loader blew out.
Started in Spring. It's now end of Oct. Maybe I can put it for sale again this week. All this to sell it - arrrrgggg.

This story is about the day my Grandfather Brown (true name) decided along with my parents to purchase a new Ford tractor. It wasn't really new except to us. The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
