These are normally a good tough little chore tractor and fit for a good bit of field work. The Perkins motor is reknowned for it's longevity and 8-10,000hours is normal before a rebuild if kept well serviced. The 236 engine should be an excellent starter but if it has not been worked hard it can glaze the bores or carbon the head. Most over here are fitted with a thermostart in the intake manifold. Maybe it is missing or not working? Multi-power issues could be as simple as a loose clamp where the lever goes into the top of the clutch housing, pulling the rod up with a pair of grips could engage high speed, it is worth a try. but it could also be a burned out clutch pack, not expensive to buy parts for but the clutch is right in the bottom of the gearbox so time is the problem. Sometimes the oil pump, mounted piggy-back on the main hydraulic pump in the rear trans housing, can shear the drive or the splines on the shaft internally. If this has happened the clutch pack may be OK. The tractor can be operated in Low Multi but it does not have a hold back when going downhill. Also it is supposed to be put into high periodically to lube the front top bearing of the gearbox. See what others say and take these points into consideration when agreeing on price! Sam

No. I am just happy to have their friendship. At least the word "farmer" is in my title. But what is the attraction?
